On this site, we make perfect movies, and then we surpass them. Of course, if we can surpass them, they were not perfect in the first place, but who would have known?

Once again, this was proven to be the general direction on this site. This movie is an update to the previous movie by Bisqwit and AngerFist, surpassing the previous version by about 22 seconds. Most of this improvement is caused by an esoteric death shortcut in Wily4 stage. For the first time, all robot master refights are skipped entirely.

A lot of wall-crossing techniques are used in this movie. It is very difficult for even an expert player to comprehend what’s going on in this movie.

Most of the strategies in this movie come from FinalFighter and Morimoto. Huge thanks to both of them.

The foundation of all of the techniques used in this movie are explained at Rockman Tricks, but the applications are myriad and complicated. Some of the applications are explained at FinalFighter’s website, but in Japanese.

Note: The AVI for this movie was made with the Japanese version, but the FCM file actually completes on both the Japanese and USA version.
