The only thing I can think of for Dark Academy in a New Game run is getting the Winged Boots, maybe the Mercury Boots before those, although I can't remember where you get them. The NG / NG+ differences are pretty heavy, is sub-1h even possible?

to save some time at 13'th street you can use a jumping critical attack on the train with a spear. you go over it. someone here told me how to do it.

Yeah, I did that.

Routes look about right.

You can put the route & maps on the site if you want.

here's what i got so far for the bosses.

Dullahan: just as Persona said, Leather Whip and Rock Riot
Astarte: backdash spam Darts
Legion: Tempest and Nebula, possibly darts
Death: charged Ice Needle and bds Dart
Sisters: duh
Richter: pies
Mummy: bds dart and/or VK special
Drac: VK special and Spirit of Light

everyone else i'm not sure. for the later bosses i'd assume a combination of VK special and Spirit of Light. Dagon is a whole nother story. i've heard that jump kicking with the Spiked Boots works, but I prefer Darts and Spirit of Light.

Update on Magical Tickets:

- Save at least once
- Visit Vincent at least once

I honestly don't know the point of saving once, MTs have nothing to do with suspending the game, but oh well.

these really helped me out. thankfully, skeletons and gunmen are easy to get. if so, i could probably not get tempest at all. axe bomber seems worth getting now, seeing how much time it saves on Stella. maybe on Astarte as well.
