Last Surprise was composed by Shoji Meguro for Persona 5, the Atlus role playing game first released in Japan in 2016, with vocals by Lyn Inaizumi. In game it plays during regular battles, especially after the Phantom Thieves ambush an enemy, matching the lyric about an attack the target never saw coming. The track became one of the game's most quoted songs online, turning its opening hook into shorthand for stylish surprise reveals, edits and memes far beyond Persona fans, and it returned in later spin offs and concerts.

Last Surprise from Persona 5, the battle theme with the famous you'll never see it coming hook, used for reveals, edits and surprise moments.
This clip is the opening burst of Last Surprise, the regular battle theme from Persona 5 composed by Shoji Meguro and sung by Lyn Inaizumi. Funky acid jazz guitars, bass and drums kick in under the confident vocal line you'll never see it coming, instantly signalling an ambush turned in the heroes' favour. It feels slick, smug and energetic rather than tense, which is why a short excerpt works as a punchline for reveals. The groove is so distinctive that even a few seconds read as stylish confidence and a plan coming together perfectly in front of viewers.
