By and far my favorite part of the CotM games is the inbetween stage little 'cutscenes'. It displays the crew in a way different light then the rest of the game would normally display. With the old crew you can legit see their friendship show through. Favorite one? The second stage going to the third where they are all different monsters and sigh with relief when the illusion breaks. As for the run, my man, that was great! Theres some VERY small hiccups, but thats to be expected with games like this. The fact that you had so few is WAY above my pay-grade in skill!
Do you know length of their victory pose frames? It seems hachi's victory after a boss is longer than the others but switching characters have also its own frames
Weeeeeeeeell, I mean, you did bring up always doing the same routes in the other categories, but that's not really true when you don't have Ultimate Mode on, right? At least for the first few stages anyhow. Have any plans to try and go for records with normal Zangetsu, BTW?

I love the big fish catch
Lavamandra with the actual good RNG, you don't see that very often! GG on the run!
These speedruns are so much fun to watch. I hope you keep it up!
It's interesting that you said that this game has shmup style difficulty and that lava stage is straight out of Life Force.
Awesome run! Great to see you wreck that lava worm, I hated that boss so much.
Now THIS is speedrunning
Great run, Jup! Will you/have you done a no-damage run yet?
Fire Rahab? It reminds me more of Serris from Metroid: Fusion.
I compared both of these to Rahab when I first played these games so checks out

There's actually a really nice guide for CotM2 which includes info on this, you can find it here: www.speedrun.com/bscotm2/guides/kms28

So does the Stage 7 Warp only exist in Episode 2?
