Rhapsody a musical adventure DS Help

I wonder if there is something wrong with my rhapsody game cause for the weirdest reasons, when I'm at the pirate ship part and go kill the painting the enemy doesn't die. And i mean those skeleton pawns which should be dead pretty quickly. But after hitting about 300 or 400 amount of damage to them they still don't die. ??? ???

Well,I've played the game,but haven't reach that part yet..
and I've also search through the walkthrough at www.gamefaqs.com..
But no clue about your problem...

hmm try the magic spell? it probably works .
