This is my speedrun of Hagane on SNES in 15 minutes and 31 seconds. This was timed from start button to the final hit on the last boss. This is a 15:25 or so by SDA timing. This was performed in real-time on an actual console and cartridge with no extra assistance. I have submitted it to SDA, but it has not yet been verified.

This run relies a huge amount on good luck, particularly for Boss 2 (En-Mikoshi) and Boss 5 (Shura-Oh). I had to settle for a 2-cycle kill on En-Mikoshi, but that cost up to 8 seconds. The three major breakthroughs for this run that allow it to surpass several of the other non-zip TASes are:
-Worm Skip in 1-3
-Improved skip in 4-3
-1-cycle Shura-Oh kill.
Otherwise this run is very clean. I manipulate the bomb drops in Stage 1-1, but cannot control the RNG after that. I have to hope for good patterns on En-Mikoshi and Shura-Oh, or else the time suffers almost a minute. Very satisfied with this run despite not getting perfect luck.
