The movie improved the published movie by 1653 frames, emulator used FCEUX 2.2.3.
The bat form of Alucard moves faster than man form, I use more bat in some stages.
Improvment: BLK 6-02, improved movement. 7-06, used bat. 8-03, bat again. A-01, lag reduction. Not too much to the Sypha movie. *_*
Nach: Nice improvement. Decent feedback. Accepting as improvement to existing run.
feos: Pub.

Glad to see improvements to a 10 year old run. Do you plan to update your Castlevania 2 run?

Great improvements once again, just as with the the Sypha run. Nice lag reduction in the clock tower. Another enthusiastic yes vote right here.

Great improvements! Nice to see you again. :) I liked your lag reduction in the Clock Tower. Very good strategy. Yes vote. And other thing: It's possible to defeat the boss of Blk 4-03 (The Vampire Bat) using only whip, as well as possible to defeat all of the little bats with a single hit, and to reduce some lag during the last small little bats. I saved 42 frames on this battle: http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/37125403203991102

That's awesome. Honestly I won't redo the run for those frames due to there are some random things in the later part, but it's a possible improvment if find more new tricks.
