Just as with Episode 1, I'll be doing a full walkthrough for this game in HD and true 16:9. Thankfully, I found a widescreen hack that doesn't introduce a bunch extra graphical bugs like the last one I tried.

Once again: a significant number of this game's cutscenes are pre-rendered FMVs, unfortunately, so they won't be affected by the resolution increase or widescreen hack.

Anyways, not too much to say here. You can easily take Margulis out in one shot with Ice Brand if you Down him first (even just Breaking him gives a pretty good chance of Ice Brand doing him in with one shot); the "tricky" part would be getting the point bonus. When his HP is reduced to 0, he always counter-boosts for one last attack, and that attack must be on the point bonus slot to get the reward (meaning you must reduce his HP to 0 on the Boost slot).
