You are right. I tried to plan other routes, but they are all slower. Your route is the fastest, although it doesnt seem to be very fast, because of the ? block moving and you dont have Shell for W8 after 8-4 (I suppose that Mini in 5-GH is faster than Shell in 8-C to 8-8?)
8-T: Stock Shell from Hammer Bro, and when finished Hammer Bro will spawn 8-4 and move to 8-3. 8-5: Stock Shell from Flying [?] Block. 8-8: Get Mini from Flying [?] Block. Second 8-T2: Get Shell from Hammer Bro. This is the route I am currently thinking about. The Shell test run for all stages of W8 is over. I haven't tried running it on other power-ups yet, so I think there's room for route improvement.

The shortest route to W8 (1-1,1-2,1-T, 5-1,5-2,5-3,5-G) has already been completed. I'm currently working on W8, but I'm having a hard time adjusting the Flying [?] Block and Hammer Bro movements on the world map, and the items available from them.
So you are completing the game once first? Have you considered the use of glitches related to the Challenge Mode since you will have the option after beating the game once?
Yes I am thinking. Are there any stages other than 5-B where I should use Challenge Mode? I used it in 7-Castle to get a third star coin while skipping the Snake Block. (Because I couldn't think of any other method)

I have already considered the route of W8. I will omit it because it will be long if I write the contents of the specific route, but it is ideal to repeat the acquisition of Shell stock and Mini from Flying [?] Block and Hammer Bro. It is necessary to move the Flying [?] Block from 8-4 to 8-5 on the way, and it will take some time to move, but this should be faster than going to the mushroom house or moving to another world. In order to realize this ideal route, it is necessary to perform RNG operation perfectly, which is very difficult.

I know when the RNG changes and how to adjust it, but I don't know the efficient way to get the ideal RNG, so it takes time.

I have resumed creating 100% run, but it is difficult to adjust RNG.

It's a wonderfully improved TAS! I found improvement of 4 frames with 2-2. However, RNG changes as double jumps decrease by one time. Link to video

Jump in a shell and leave the shell when Y speed is exactly 0. Then Shell Mario will jump in the air.

One question, is it faster to pick up the blue shell in 8-Tower instead of 8-3?
W8 refers to the Japanese version of the record. Link to video In 8-Tower, waiting time is required to go to the fourth moving scaffold. In the meantime pick up the blue shell.

2) What the hell is going on in 5-Tower
We used two cheat codes when producing 5-Tower. One is to change the speed of automatic scrolling. Another thing is to make Mario slip through the enemy. After using these two things and finishing the production, I played without using cheat codes and confirmed that there was no problem. In addition, enemies and star coins will not appear outside the screen. Unlock private videos recorded using cheat codes. https://youtu.be/vkX8JdBC-D0
