So main thing to point out is that Blossom had doubts about how practical that first bomb in my stage 5 is and this run kind of ended up being the result. From what I can guess, the bullets spawned from the enemies near the first flower are valuable and bombing them means losing out on them. That bomb was more or less me trying to guess what the 219m run did and chances are that bomb would be good if it was with Eve. Not sure yet and I really don't feel like going back to Eve for Original. Still not sure what to do with the spare bomb I have now, but it did serve as a safety net during the final boss since I panicked a bit before the point I usually bomb the boss. I didn't want to lose this run so I played it safe. Also changed my approach to how I manipulate some of the bullets just to see if I can get better cancels and it seemed to work out for the better. I figured it would be for the best to try to get whatever is aimed to travel to the opposite corner of where they come from if that makes sense.
