It seems that the developers made animations for each character to perform all the actions, like jumping, receiving damage to force the low HP pose, attacking without going into a battle movie, and more with the possibility of the game designers to use them as they see fit. However, in the end, only certain characters get to use one of these animations once or twice in cutscenes and at a certain angle, resulting in a lot of unseen animations.
This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Verify which animations are actually used in-game, as they are probably used once or twice and are easy to miss.
Niki has a full set of animations that do other actions, whereas in the game, you can only see her idle animations, back low health pose and the front sprite of being hit with a strong attack. She even has the floating animation when Lisette becomes a witch.
