UPDATE: I beat this time. My new best is 56.03. See the new video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm9QhsGc92o

This is honestly not a great run. I am just really tired of running this stage so I am taking it. Here is a large list of all the improvements possible:

- Dive kick faster at the beginning. This was one of the first few attempts of the day, so I wasn't quite up to speed. When I get up to speed I generally miss one of two dive kicks and slide accidentally, though.
- Kill the Creature in one double jump instead of two jumps. There is a slight lag when you hit the ground, so I only want to deal with that once.
- Corner boost before the Glasya Labolas. This is the largest mistake in the entire run.
- One more dive kick before the final mirror.

Overall, I think I can cut just over 1 second off this run. Maybe a 0:57.4 would be possible, but I don't think much more than that would be doable. The best part about this run is honestly the fire demon behavior. He was extremely cooperative and met me underneath Brauner's room for the second dive kick pretty early. He often hesitates getting up there, which costs 2-3 seconds. Anyways, I am either moving to new chapters or not speed running this any more. Haha.
