New bugs
6-2 Fighter Clip
By pressing B and then holding B in quick succession, Fighter Kirby will perform jabs into a rising hit, then charge up a shot while airborne.
If you let go of the 2nd B press at the right time, instead of shooting, Kirby will perform more jabs in the air that can lead into a rising hit again.
Doing this in a certain spot in 6-2 allows Kirby to clip into a ceiling at the top of the screen.
Confirmed on all game versions.

8-2 Blockin Clip
At the end of 8-2, after collecting the big chest, a Blockin spawns near the exit.
You can clip inside of walls if you float up against it.
Confirmed on all game versions.

Ninja Invincibility Bug
In 8-2, as Ninja, using the attack that grabs an enemy, using that on a fish while moving inside water, causes Kirby to not take damage from another enemy.
Confirmed on all game versions.

Animal Bug
As Animal Kirby, when using a dashing attack on an enemy (the one where he scratches the enemy's face), if Kirby touches water during the attack, the attack will be canceled and the enemy will be stuck in the air indefinitely. This can be done effectively on some enemies in 8-2 with the strangely shaped bodies of water.
- Kirby will not take take damage from enemies while the glitch is in effect.
- Ditching the ability will despawn the stuck enemy. However, when doing the bug again with a 2nd enemy, the 1st enemy will be stuck in the air even when ditching the ability.
- Enemies stuck in the air will not despawn from being too far offscreen.
This happens only on the Japanese version. On other game versions, Kirby will continue the attack even underwater.

8-3 Bad Collision
In 8-3, in the room with a lot of dirt, there is a ceiling that has improper collision.
This only works on the Japanese version.

Cannon Bug
After entering a cannon while inhaling, if a bubble or ability star comes into reach, Kirby will inhalte it and fall down from the cannon and be invisible.
- When done with a cannon that spins infinitely, it will continue to spin infinitely. It cannot be entered again while it is spinning.
- When done with a cannon that spins only once before shooting, it will continue to spin once and then shoot nothing, after which it can be entered again.
- Entering any cannon while the glitch is in effect causes Kirby to fall out of the cannon immediately after touching it.
- After entering a new room, Kirby will still be invisible. This lasts until you acquire a new ability.
- This bug can be used to enter a part of 4-3 where you are normally shot from cannon to cannon.
This works only on the Japanese version.

Laser Bug
At the start of 6-2, the player can shoot regular lasers via UFO or Laser ability against a left ledge which makes them be stuck in the air.
Getting several lasers stuck like that will eventually cause sprite bugs and lag.
- This can also be done at the beginning of 8-1, if the first platform has moved up and Kirby is positioned between the platform and the right ledge as UFO Kirby.
- Fully charged laser from Laser Kirby can get stuck, but semi or fully charged lasers from UFO Kirby cannot.
- You can get a fully charged laser from Laser Kirby stuck at the beginning of 8-1 if you charge it up while the platform moves up and then let go near the top of the platform's path.
Confirmed on all game versions.

More bugs:
In 6-3, transforming while a chest gets moved up by wall blocks causes the chest to stay in walls.
Video
(Player transformed via bubble from their inventory. Done on Japanese version, not confirmed for other versions yet.)
Bug in 2-3 that makes the chest before the Animal miniboss enter walls.
Video
(Player had Bubble ability. Touched chest to pick it up. Moved the chest to Kirby's mouth. Used Ninja ability bubble. Spit out chest. Floated up and entered the miniboss. Killed the miniboss by exhaling stars at him. Inhaled the miniboss and acquired Animal. Going back to the beginning revealed that the chest that was previously spit out is now in walls. Done on Japanese version, not confirmed for other versions yet.)
In 4-3, after a room where you are moved by water currents, in the next room you can set the waterfall on ice.
Video
Being on the left side of the water fall and having everything be ice except the top left corner of the water fall, then trying to enter that single block of water, causes rapid, repeated "enter water" animation.
(Player had Ice Bomb. Done on Japanese version, not confirmed for other versions yet.)
The Kirby Squeak Squad 100%TAS is discontinued until I know why this happens!
http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1203983421/ksqsq100-4_25.dsm 0.9.8+, U ROM
http://pastebin.com/5qc9qdu0 (position and speed changes between levels)
EDIT:
Works in 0.9.4+ taking the any%, mixing 2 sword bubbles to wheel and using that, then entering level 2.
Either it doesn't work because of something I did in level 1 in 100%. Or it generally works less likely in 0.9.8...
EDIT:
Boost sliding does not work on 0.9.8+ when having Wheel acquired.
It works on 0.9.7 and 0.9.4+ (with Wheel acquired).
EDIT:
I concluded that 0.9.8 is probably the correct emulation and 0.9.7 and before are flawed. That means my any% TAS uses an emulator glitch in pretty much every level's beginning.
What is the ruling on this? Can I have my TAS removed?
