More Further-er Fireburst Early Optimization p0ppr0cks 2022-11-01 | Saves about 2 further seconds over the previous strat by @Auride ( youtube.com/watch?v=z7W-vSBu4jc ). Combines the strat of jumping only 1 time on the slippery slope, and the strat of using SGT to jump off the slippery slope directly to the interior clip. This strat is fairly tough and may be worth planning for a backup in case it doesn't work.
Dash Restore Timing p0ppr0cks 2022-10-28 | Tackle and green dash #1: 9 seconds 1 frameTackle and green dash #2: 9 seconds 0 framesInsta restore gold dash #1: 7 seconds 22 framesInsta restore gold dash #2: 7 seconds 26 framesInsta restore gold dash #3: 7 seconds 24 framesTackle jump restore gold dash #1: 8 seconds 8 framesTackle jump restore gold dash #2: 8 seconds 5 framesAir tackle restore gold dash #1: 8 seconds 6 framesAir tackle restore gold dash #2: 8 seconds 7 framesTiming starts the first frame Amaterasu moves, ends the first frame dialogue opens. Okami runs at 30 frames per second.Pros of this method: Ideal distance to measure the speed of building gold dash, consistent distance set by loading zone/cutscenes on both sides, easily accessible for any game file at any game state.Cons of this method: Camera turns while you run, resulting in slight variance due to non-linear movementConclusions: Tackle jumping and air tackling are roughly equivalent methods of dash restore. Tackle jump and air tackle lose between 0.3 and 0.5 seconds (~11 to 13 frames) compared to instant restore. Failing to store dash into a situation where you restore from dead stop (i.e. loading zone, after shopping, after cutscene) loses around 1.25 seconds. Losing dash while running will lose slightly greater than 1.25 seconds, because you will have to tackle instead of continue full gold dash movement, and may spend some frames moving at walking speeds.
Okami New Game Any% Splice: Start to Sasa Digging p0ppr0cks 2022-09-23 | First 21 minutes of a spliced video using extremely risky/non-rta-viable strategies to create a unique segmented speedrun. Every part of this run was played in real time on a controller, edited together to showcase what is theoretically possible in Okami. Here are some time saves that are unique to this run so far:4:15 - Boulder skip is done with only one wall-jump11:40 - Dead fish skip12:20 - Reverse dead fish skip14:25 - PR Move20:05 - Sasa Early, no buffers and direct landing

Okami Speedrun: New Game All Brushes in 3:19:29 (no commentary) p0ppr0cks 2022-06-04 | 2nd place run at the time. This is a very high difficulty (arguably most difficult) category for Okami, in which you must visit every dungeon to collects brush powers, collect high quantities of yen and demon fangs needed for upgraded brush powers, and do side quests to get hidden brush powers. This is a recording with no commentary, so it's great for background listening or to see a fast playthrough which visits nearly all areas of the game.
Slow Fire Tab Skips w/ Input Viewer p0ppr0cks 2022-05-27 | What happens each attempt:0:15 - Releases jump on frame 4. Best brush buffer frames.0:40 - Double jumps too early, hits the ceiling.1:05 - Buffers too slowly after double jump, gains too much height and hits ceiling.1:31 - Jumps 1 frame late, keeps dash but loses jump speed.1:43 - Jumps 1 frame early, I think. Didn't trust it.1:50 - Releases jump frame 4, perfect.2:17 - Releases jump frame 3. Still makes it, but it's very tight.2:49 - Releases jump frame 3.

Okami Speedrunning: Taka Pass early via Pr Move trick p0ppr0cks 2021-09-23 | The PR Move is a trick that lets you cross the river immediately after blooming Agata Forest and either fighting or skipping the Waka 1 encounter.

Attempts to skip Tsuta without HBS p0ppr0cks 2021-09-11 | How to do this:1) Wall jump to get a little extra height than you can get with single jump alone2) Bonk on the back of the merchant's stall as high as possible while still getting dialogue3) Fast text the dialogue, and dboost a tackle4) Jump the very moment you start getting tackle speed, you will lose height during tackle so you must jump as soon as the tackle speed begins5) Perform a series of extremely difficult SGT (sliding ground tackles) over the edge, and jumping outside the jump barrier.6) The goal of this trick is to jump OVER the pathway and reach the other side. If you can land solidly on the mountain across the road, it has been proven possible to jump over the river and arrive in Taka Pass.The problem:While most of the mountain can be traversed via SGT, the slope directly above the pathway is very steep and difficult to land on. You can very nearly reach the other side, but just barely cannot without landing a few very tricky SGTs on the slippery slope.The Solution?:Seam gripping could be a possibility. I HAVE gotten seam grips on the slippery mountain, but have not found a way to escape those grips in a practical way due to the jump barrier.Using FPG to reverse your bonk may allow you to land on the slope in a better fashion. This is attempted in the third clip, but no ground contact occurs.Preserving gold dash through the entire series of SGTs may allow you to get enough speed that you can either go past the slippery slope, or allow you to jump from higher up on previous jumps while still clearing the jump barrier. Additional height or speed may allow you to make ground contact.

Okami Speedrunning: Beach Adventure strat p0ppr0cks 2021-05-11 | This can be used on HD NG+ 2017 when using sunken ship to set the time to night. It saves about 15 seconds of nighttime, which is useful because you need to spin the whirlpool galaxy prior to daybreak. This is slightly slower in real time than jumping into the water from below and swimming to the beach, but significantly increases consistency of this route.

Okami Barrier Skip - Initial Strategy p0ppr0cks 2021-04-05 | This is a relatively newly discovered trick for new game to enter north ryoshima early. The method was conceived by LegoerofEggos, and I executed it for the first time. I wanted to make a few notes about my strategy in order to make it easier to understand the challenges of the trick.0:11 you start running upward, then turn to the left to gain speed prior to jumping0:14 I land on the very edge of the furthest slope to do SGT#1. This is intentional, and greatly decreases your likelihood of getting a seam grip or losing speed. The window to input the tackle is very narrow, but if you execute an SGT, you will virtually always be able to maneuver to SGT#2.0:18 I take a path that does not hug the mountain, which would engage the jump barrier, but that is still fairly direct. I'm aiming for roughly the middle of the final slope.0:21 I mash to get SGT#3. The SGT usually occurs long after your landing ('greenhop'), but in this case I was able to get it quickly and still had sufficient speed to clear the jump barrier. Either way, it's very difficult to time. Jump out of the SGT as late as possible.
