I know you are saying you made this with the intention of it being rejected, but why do you think it should be rejected? Maximum score tases are accepted pretty frequently. I take it that 8:35 break in the spheres is actually the mistake in the game you were mentioning? Also the tunes in the game are decent for a rhythm game so it is actually not bad to listen to.
Goal aside, I pretty much made it as a joke. Yes, this game is fairly nostalgic to me, and I’ll always have a soft spot for it despite being no Ouendan or Rhythm Heaven, but I wouldn’t exactly call it an interesting game to watch. Maybe just a bad choice of goal, but whatever. And yes, that break is the result of a charting mistake. So nice it happens twice.

Is it set thru like dipswitches? I'd consider that an artistic choice more than anything.
Well, for Neo Geo, the Service button can be hit at any time after boot-up to tweak soft DIPs to one’s liking, from basic visual changes like de-censoring the blood in Metal Slug, to more game-changing stuff like disabling continues or omitting the “How To Play” sections entirely. So yeah, I guess you could say just adjusting the DIPs before starting the game is an artistic choice.

Xipo has improved x2poet's run in 2011. And only 1778 frames slower than this run, and didn't use warp glitch. So it's means this run can still been improved more than 20s include boss fight. https://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzQ1Nzg0MjMy.html
Nice! I don't know why neither of us thought to hold down the button in case Musashi had a charged attack that we weren't aware of. Time to further improve the improvement, I guess. Btw, would it be considered too much if I also gave myself a three-second headstart like Xipo by disabling the tutorial and flashes, or is that fair game? The only setting I adjusted at the beginning was the difficulty level so that both TASes would be on an even playing field.
