Ghost Castle 1 done in 614 frames (from selecting the level on the world map to the first frame when Kururin looks happy).

It is definitely improvable since it used the "slow" early wall clip available here (that waits for an additional 180° to adjust position): http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/52237142160912306

Cave 3 done in 260 frames (from selecting the level on the world map to the first frame when Kururin looks happy).

The second wall clip used a similar method as in this Ghost Castle 1 wall clip: http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/52237142160912306

The few weird inputs before the second wall clipping were done for adjusting position.

Heavily inspired by the "cheat bot" video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXB5DTYUei4&t=3m24s

(The end is different because I was unable to reproduce it exactly, but the final time is the same).

Ghost Castle 2 done in 312 frames (from selecting the level on the world map to the first frame when Kururin looks happy).

I used a first wall clip to escape the starting zone and go out-of-bounds, then another one to go inbounds again and reach the regular goal zone.

The previously known wall clipping techniques did not work here for some reason, so I had to find new ones.

There are probably faster strategies, but this is a good start.

A new way to escape the starting zone in Ghost Castle 1.

The method given in Grasslands 3 (http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/52177347080337677) does actually not work here because of the springs on the bottom wall. So I wait for an additional 180° to give me time to adjust my position.

There are probably faster strategies, but this is a good start.
