Mima - Highly Responsive to Prayers (stage 10 boss, Hell route).

I did not draw the pictures, I only made the collage.

Mima’s spritesheet from Highly Responsive to Prayers looks somehow like this. I haven’t managed to extract the sprites from the game myself, but you can see it at spriters-resource /sheet/103553/.

As you can observe, there is only 1 full sprite of Mima, the rest being just fragments of her body that are being overlayed on the full sprite. Because of this, when it’s overlayed on the main sprite, the fragment where she points with the knife will show the full sprite’s hand with the knife in the background.

This could have been avoided by having a full sprite for the pointing knife appearance instead. In conclusion, Mima doesn’t actually have 3 arms drawn, it’s just because of how the pieces overlay.
