The run improves pirate_sephiroth's warp glitch run. I don't want to compare the two runs, because they are played in different mode. Bosses are stronger in hard mode, need more time to fight them, but dialogues can't be skipped in normal mode, so it spends more time too. I think that starting from power-on is better for an any% run. Thanks all previous authors of cvaos movies for their contributions at first.
Main improvement: faster movement, this is obvious; warped to other area by nearer shortcut; skipped some needless souls.
I took damage intentionally in order to make Lubicant's soul more powerful, I know it was not a good idea, but it didn't lose time anyway.

NesVideoAgent: Hi! I am a robot. I took a few screenshots of this movie and placed them here. Oh! I also corrected the ROM name.
