I literally made 3+ minutes of mistakes mid-game. First I forgot the fight skip immediately after Veil of Mist. Then I teleported to Ryoshima instead of Sei-An after the Fire Tablet digging minigame, forcing me to burn my last mermaid coin, then leave Sei-An manually. Then in North Ryo, I forgot to buy more mermaid coins forcing me to manually travel from the top of Catcall Tower to Watcher's Cape. I also lost some time at the very beginning of the game (Kamiki turnips), late game (Oni Island), and end-game (Nechku Skip).
I will try to improve this time significantly. My goal is 2:48 or 2:47 before I start doing Fire Tablet Skip runs, so that I'm absolutely certain I can push the limits of Okami.

![Okami in 2:26:20 - New Game Any% Speedrun [Former World Record]
This run was beaten on March 19, 2020 by Krinoteder (2h 25m 57s https://youtu.be/zwGx7p1IfkI). Congrats!
Ive spent the past few days de-rusting in preparation for SGDQ submissions, with the goal of breaking WR so I could have an up-to-date video to submit. This run definitely beat my expectations in that regard. I created a 2m lead pretty early by correcting mistakes and having good fights early-game, and pretty much held onto it for the rest of the run by playing consistently well.
I do still think this category has a fair way to go in terms of development. The past weekend has shown me that there are still new tricks and optimizations to be found, and this run still has several minutes of time-save left in it. Sum-of-best is 2:17:36 now, which makes me feel that a dedicated person really could break 2h 20m.
This run beats the previous wr by me (2h 28m 07s https://youtu.be/OHmuhVEitUY) by 1m 47s.
