Best Castlevania game, minus the seals.

12:17 What game is that musical jingle from? I know I've heard it before, likely SNES.

hey

You always do such an excellent job breaking down these runs and the strategies.

Man, i need to replay this sometime. I didn't even know half these souls existed (I really have bad rng in general) . I also really liked the boss designs, but i get the frustraion of bosses like 16:15. It wastes time, and if you're not challenging yourself with stuff like halberd/sword only, it can get annoying fast. Banana bread club let's go.

Can yall make one for portrait of ruin

Great vid. Main channel rules!

How is that rare ring money not a pay to win mechanic?. They been getting us for DECADES. Lol

Banana Bread

The only thing better then the Soma games, it's the Soma games after a solid meal of banana bread

The RPG route is funny, but nothing tops the banana bread ending

I think the single best part of the game is the Soma fight in Julius Mode, it's so sick. I especially like how Soma has a voiceline for whichever character you enter the room with, plus the incredible music...

I don't think I've ever dropped a seal, and I played through the game like 20-30 times as a bored teenager back when it came out - I also revisited it in 2020 when I suddenly had an abundance of spare time, and it was still great

Banana nut bread is vastly superior!

It only sucks on Emulator on PC.

This is such a cool video, basically a condensed explanation of the whole speedrun route. I hope you do more of these for other CV games. Keep it up Dr4gonBlitz!

420th comment 🎉 love seeing games get obliterated

Im sorry, but the seal system was rad af, and takes no time. Git gud.

It just works

Great vid! Banana Bread!

Humans and drawing, such a love-hate relation

It's not murder, it's self defense.

Has anyone tested this man for PEDs?

Never tried Banana Bread before, but I'd like to. Also, nice vid. Love how informative they are, and I always learn something new.

That tail!!!😂😂😂

I watched this while eating delicious banana bread :9

A great player and person

Let's GO DoS. Hope Konami makes a DS Collection. Allof the DS games are excellent, taking out the gimmicks.

never understood the last boss, lore in castlevania lore

0:59: The other Belmonts should learn from Richter.

If you did all these tricks in front of devs ... it might create a speed run paradox where they patched all the exploits!

🍌🍞

Weird i have beaten this Game atleast twice but i do t remember that locust boss

I dont speedrun but can it be that opening practice is checking your location and brcause your hit box is over a load zone thr preactice location check reads the room and saves that to memory. Then when you complete the practice it pulls that memory for your new location.

Take a shot everytime he says "Map tile."

I enjoyed hearing and seeing the speedruns, please do more!

*Fun fact:* I'm the guy that actually discovered the Succubus Warp tech way back when... _but not initially for the effect it's known for today._ You can find remnants of it around old Angelfire web pages if you Google the phrase "semi-immortal succubus". If you activate Succubus and use a special attack like the Cutall's, it puts Soma into a weird state where he's either invincible and/or makes the Succubus hitbox always active, which also imparts its regenerative aspects onto you as well. It was only later I found that with a very specific timing of weapon attacks after using the Succubus soul that you could warp through walls without resorting to the Magic Seal glitch. _(I believe it was special [A], three normals [Y→Y→Y], then another special [A])._ And if your timing was good enough, you'd just zip straight through walls. ...I also discovered a much dumber glitch where, if you use the 'Bat Company' soul in a specific spot, return to normal and then slide out of a small crevice, you can jump infinitely. It's not really _useful_ for anything that I know of, it's just fun pretending you're Samus doing the Screw Attack around the entire map. But that was almost twenty years ago now-I was just a silly kid back then playing with stupid unintended game interactions I thought would never be useful for anything.

(There's probably already comments saying this but just in case) Nuclear fission creates a chain reaction in dangerous/unstable elements, dividing them into smaller elements, releasing massive energy and creating highly radioactive waste. And while nuclear fusion also release massive energy, it comes from combining harmless elements (like hydrogen), and the "waste" is other harmless elements (like helium).

I... loved the seals and can still perform all of them in half a second with my thumb 😅 (And I specify thumb bc I feel like why players hate the seals is bc they would default to using the stylus, but I really don't know. I just never used the stylus for this game growing up)

Love seeing this speedrunner stuff! Also banana bread is delicious!

That fucking seal gimmick is such bullshit. I always used an AR code to auto complete that shit.

Wait Dawn of sorrow came out before portrait of ruin?

I never understood why people hated the seals. They were ridiculously fucking easy for me, and I am the most uncoordinated sumbitch I know. Maybe it's because I love the concept of magic runes and symbols and used to draw shit like that all the time. Hell, I made a design once over a series of classes in one college course because I understood the subject matter better that seemingly everyone else in the room and kept getting bored. To be fair it was a beginner's class that I needed to take to get a degree I was working on, but...

Im eating banana bread while watching this.

I just don't bother and typically use a magic seal removal mod. Bless me actually being able to play emulation via ds carts

The script style of this video reminds me of cable TV, and not in a good way. Constantly baiting people with incomplete information to make sure that the audience is not going to change to another channel.

i loved this game when i was younger. but i never knew that soul was so strong because of how dumb it looked.

Shit, I haven't had banana bread in a while, now that you've got me thinking of it. Anyways, awesome vid dude

The reason that the zips happen is The same reason why it happens in some mega Man X games and even Mario games where you can clip in between two walls and you're in a specific spot that the game will register you in for one frame and then the next frame you're going to be pushed aside to a certain degree and then set back into an X and y axis

i dont understand 99.9% of the explanation. but we're going fast, so heck yeaaa!
