Oh wow! That's terrific! I had no idea you could do that on such places too. Much to learn, I still have :D. This calls for a redo of my for sure, at least for the full run I'm currently doing. You feel like improving the glitched run? As I would feel bad to do it really.
Dooty: Ah, yeah, I know you can be a pixel further there, but it won't save a frame anyway.
Edit: I just did another run of the courtyard. And because of the frame rule for taking damage, I wasn't actually able to save any time there, reached the door at the same frame. If you could prove me wrong, I would love to hear that. I'll be using it everywhere else where it's possible though, of course. So thanks a lot!
Editwo: Found another spot at the bushes on the way to the hole, two frames faster there. Which means I should save 4-6 into the castle. Great.

Best I could do, should be 4 frames faster (Not counting JP version and 1.51) than the published run. Can you improve it further?
