I really dislike myself for messing up the final boss as much as I did. Also, I got a lot of bad RNG during the fight, such as losing my ability and I ended up missing yet another fully charged sword swing, which is just a skill issue. Even though he came back on stage immediately after flying off, I still lost a good amount of time just from him teleporting everywhere for the first portion. Though, for some odd reason, I figured out that if you guard or stand still at the beginning of the fight right after he attacks, he usually stays on stage, which is why you see me guard after I do the down thrust. Overall, I still lost at least 25 seconds during this fight and a low 4 can be done. I'm still experimenting with the soul fight and I feel like the fight can end before the fallen meteor phase, which would save another 10 seconds meaning sub 4 is doable, but it's a bit tougher to pull off when your sword eventually shrinks. The window may be a bit tight, but it could be doable. Also, Phantom Gorimondo can be done in 9-10 seconds, so that's a bit of time to gain on, not that it matters all that much. Hopefully in the next run I get, you'll be able to see that.

also, yes, I'm still aware Toy Hammer is faster.
