A few notable time losses but overall this is a really good time! Though don't do what I did in the shop. The best thing to do in shop 2 is to buy 4 charms up until whetstone so that shop 3 can be really fast, but of course me being me for whatever reason I shop glitched immediately and I could only buy up to coffee. Not a huge time loss but probably the silliest mistake of the run.

![(Former WR) Donkey Kong Country 2 Any% Speedrun in 38:14 [Live Recording]
After spending about 10 months running this game and category fairly actively, I finally got a WR time that Im happy with. This has been by far the run that Ive put the most amount of time and effort into thus far, so the satisfaction that comes from this is particularly high. In addition, this was the first World Record run to ever implement the mega difficult Gusty Glade Wrong Warp, which killed so many of my attempts before this one. I am not going to be attempting another PB in this category in the near future, although I have a feeling I will try to beat this time some day. Ill be moving on to other games and other categories before then.
This video is the run as it happened in real time, broadcasted live on my Twitch channel.

![(Former WR) Castlevania Any% Speedrun in 11:20.150 [Live Recording]
Level 6 was pretty slow, but then again so it is on most of my attempts lately. Its a pretty good run outside of that! Im still not done with this game though, Im close to the big milestone of 11:19 (most likely the last 10-second barrier thats ever going to be broken for this game) and even after that I might go for one or two more PBs. Well see what this game has in store for me!
Since my last WR of 11:24.567 theres been a significant development in strats that made shaving off all this time possible. Most notably, easier crits on Medusa, Frankensteins monster, and Dracula, making them as big as a 7 frame window, a 3 frame window, and a 4 frame window respectively and making it possible to attempt all of them in one run (although the Dracula one is a little more complicated than that still and much harder than the other two due to other reasons).

![(Former WR) The Lion King Any% Speedrun in 11:55 (Easy, SNES) [Live Recording]
This was a pretty clean run, happy with it! The major issue was getting the worst possible geyser luck in level 8 (losing 7 seconds or so), but what was in my control overall went really well.
