PurpleSun | [TAS] Super Mario Galaxy 2: Flash Black Green Star 2 in 36.33s @PurpleSunTAS | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Luigi, Yoshi and the P2 Luma zoom across a planet to collect a Green Star in 36.33 seconds [2180 frames, IGT]
This isn't highly optimised, but was part of testing three different routes for this star: Full Yoshi, Late Yoshi, and Yoshiless.
Yoshiless is the fastest method for GS1, so it would make sense if it was also fastest for GS2, but because of the infinite flutter on the second planet, Late Yoshi is the fastest, being faster than Yoshiless by nearly 2 seconds, and faster than Full Yoshi by nearly 7 seconds.
[The less optimised parts were more around the start, so they didn't affect the differences between routes an awful lot.]
P2 is useful for two reasons: 1) it can freeze the Paragoombas, so one doesn't get in the way up to the wallkicks (and saves losing 3f of hitlag), and another can be bounced off with Blimp Yoshi, and 2) it can break Yoshi eggs earlier.
Jumping out of the bonk landing is ~0.5s faster than waiting to be able to move.
