This might be the best I can do until I get a god run through the lasers and faster Lars fights. I started with a slow start. I've done the first couple stages faster before. But the part that turned this run around from looking like no hope of a PB to a real run was my Castle. I dealt with the fountain spear guys the best I've ever done and my Lars fights were solid given how unpredictable those can go. Overall I am very happy with this PB for now and had fun with this run! Game run on a Slim JP PS2 with real copy of the game
