nemi43 | Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Single-segment 71-Star speed run (Part 8) @nemi43 | Uploaded 12 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Part 8 - Worlds 1 and 2 Comet Stars and World 5
Total time: 3h 17m 50s
1 death @ Galaxy Generator
NOTE: There is actually no need to switch to Luigi in Boulder Bowl. Mario can do the shortcut from the top of the ramp by simply long-jumping to the left and spinning. I didn't know about this at the time I did this run.
0:35 - 45.Hightail Falls C - 1m 17.73s
I do this Star now to make Luigi appear in Boulder Bowl next. The jump to the Star can be done in a faster way:

2:34 - 46.Boulder Bowl S - 1m 5.46s
Luigi! I switch to Luigi because Mario needs to mid-air jump with the Rock Mushroom to do the shortcut, and my success rate with that trick is only about 50%.
5:14 - 47.Fiery Flotilla C - 1m 10.06s
This fight is cleaner than the first, though I missed one hit again.
7:06 - 48.Space Storm 1 - 1m 13.73s (Comet Medal 24)
9:22 - 49.Space Storm 2 - 36.38s
10:56 - 50.Shiverburn S - 1m 31s
13:06 - 51.Shiverburn 1 - 2m 8.06s (Comet Medal 25)
The two major shortcuts here were found by TouFool and Paraxade:

16:27 - 52.Upside Dizzy 1 - 58.41s (Comet Medal 26)
I screwed up getting the Comet Medal, which altered my timing for the rest of the level.
18:13 - 53.Upside Dizzy S - 1m 6.4s
I mis-aimed a couple of easy fireballs during the crate burning mini-game, which cost me about 2 or 3 seconds.
20:27 - 54.Boo Moon S - 1m 5.41s (Comet Medal 27)
Not exactly the most exciting Star, but at least it's pretty short.
22:38 - 55.Shiverburn C - 36.61s
24:16 - 56.Boom Bunker 1 - 2m 17.96s (Comet Medal 28)
"Steady...steady..."
