The Ninja Warriors Once Again / The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors time attack for Stage 2 on Normal difficulty using Kamaitachi. I borrowed some more optimizations from Kabukabusan (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0jAF8YYn9k) to shave off a couple of seconds in the first half of the stage.

I learned if you do the first screen of the second half fast enough, you'll make a fan cycle that syncs up perfectly with your battery meter. The stars aligned and I was able to get it on this run, which is why I walked straight through the first set of fans without bothering to check them. Getting this is incredibly rare and took a lot of resets combined with the randomness of the first half of the stage.

I also tried an experimental setup on the second robot to one-cycle its first phase, but I wasn't too pleased with the result since the knife jobbers will still keep coming in until you reach the end of the stage. Next time, I plan on opening with a forward throw on the robot followed by the back throw combo. That might not be for a while though because I'm pretty burnt out grinding this stage--it takes a lot of luck for everything to go perfectly. I'm happy with my time, but I think I can push it down to a 145 in the future.
