TAS made by me(zelpikukirby)
tool developer: Goldfire, naosan, sup39

This TAS was made from May 2018 to February 2023.
some optimizations are not complete because new techniques and glitches are found during TAS making.
In the early stages, the priority is to unlock Corona Mountain in order to reduce the cutscenes in delfino plaza.
it takes 2.6 seconds to scroll from episode 8 to 1, but a cutscene takes 3 seconds.
so bianco1 skip and gelato beach skip are faster.
Exceptionally, Pinna 2 reds is collected before unlock corona because it does not play any cutscene.

    One of the most entertaining TASes I have ever watched. This was incredible. Thank you for your hard work on this over the past few years!!
  • @kinghrath
    Once you see TAS spelled out in the tutorial, you know it's going to be an entertaining run.
  • The holy grail of TAS. This is an indispensable part of internet history
  • @Kosmicd12
    Congratulations on finishing and thank you for making this!

    It cannot be overstated how monumental of an achievement this is. This is quite possibly the most impressive and entertaining TAS ever made. Each programming quirk in this game is exploited by orders of magnitude far beyond what any sane person would regard as possible, sequencing together a breakneck montage of obscenely tight routing and movement that never ceases to astound with each viewing. This satisfies one of those elements of my inner child closest to the core - witnessing one of my favorite games ever, one that I hyperobsessed over as a kid, be completed virtually as optimally as possible. Thank you, zelpikukirby, for creating what will forever be one of my favorite experiences. You are one of my favorite people.
  • @trekq
    It is done... This is easily one of the most legendary TASes to have ever been created.
  • @Vince__
    I’m sure that “Have a relaxing vacation!” message hit just a bit different once Zelpiku was all done
  • @MerynMTG
    We have waited years for this moment. History is being made!
  • @actualhyena
    Shoutouts to whoever used SponsorBlock to cut like an hour (!) of transitions out of the video.
  • @wandom
    The amount of swag in this amazing TAS is too much to handle. This is insane. This will easily become one of the greats. I applaud all the hard work that it took.
  • This is a historic moment in video game history. I've personally been waiting for this one for ages, especially when the individual parts were coming out and making me anticipate the whole finished product. This is one of the greatest TASes ever (and my personal favorite of all time). Thanks for making this!
  • @JarheadHME
    shoutout to whoever added sponsorblock intermission segments to all the cutscenes, real homie right there
  • Can we talk about the absolutely insane fruit control? (1:21:00 etc.) Can't even imagine how many rerecords that took. You're like Dude Perfect with fruit.
  • @Zethoro
    Was wondering at 22:40 why I heard a blue coin noise before watching the heavens plop one down in Mario's lap lol, didn't even notice the shot upwards. This TAS is full of moments like that and it's amazing to see just how optimized it is for its sheer length. Fantastic tas! Been waiting a long time for this one.

    I just encountered this today. I watch TAS's more regularly than most so I was just in the camp of "ok, this is a solid TAS, not bad" until the point in Gelato Beach when you used a single spray to send one coconut into the blender for a blue coin and the other to setup for a perfect Shine 8 skip. That's when I knew this would be something special. This is imo, just flat out the best TAS ever made. I am BEYOND flabbergasted that this was done by a single author, in any amount of time. I do not have the proper words to express how in awe I am of the creativity at play throughout.
  • the old mario sunshine tas was one of my favorite tas’s ever and seeing another one is absolutely legendary, congrats!
  • @PurpleSunTAS
    A legendary TAS! Congrats on finishing this, it's awesome
  • Commented this on WIP 10, but I need to say it again: Thank you for the effort you put into this incredible TAS. This will go down as the best tool assisted speedrun ever made, mark my words.
