- This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2661M
TAS originally published on 2014-08-10
Not only was Castlevania: Symphony of the Night the first installment of the Castlevania series on PSX but also the first PSX game to have a published run ( tasvideos.org/1246M ) here.
Not satisfied with just going on a death spree to Dracula, Alucard decides to steal every single one of his father's heirlooms, while also killing his prized collection of monsters. Luckily he has the handy ability of phasing through walls whenever he needs to.
A run that beats the game through save data corruption is available here ( tasvideos.org/2547M ), along with one that avoids ( tasvideos.org/2541M ) data corruption. If you prefer the main character to have muscular bare arms and to pray to the rain gods to defeat bosses, you may enjoy the Richter ( tasvideos.org/2584M ) version. If you want to see a run on Replay mode that can skip many cutscenes, see this run ( tasvideos.org/2666M ). We also have a run of the Saturn version using Maria ( tasvideos.org/3982M ). We even have a run where Alucard avoids killing everything ( tasvideos.org/2657M ) except Dracula.
Due to the lengthy amount of time needed to obtain the best ending in the previous run, this run was deemed significantly more entertaining, and thus obsoletes it.

Note: Due to an emulation error, the audio in the ending FMV sequence doesn't play.

in this TAS, even Alucard himself is confused, uttering a surprised "WHAT?" occasionally lol
"A new species of cockroach that moves backward," "A living jigsaw," "A freak that falls sideways and upward."
Alucard is sure a man of thousand names.
22:18 Dracula must have been like: "What did you to my castle???"
7:58 "he-hehe-he-hehe-he-hehe Farewell for now!"
31:34 shoutout to Galamoth, the only enemy that was able to survive for more than a second against God mode Alucard.
36:25 "Oof, bazinga" -Shaft
😂😂😂💀💀💀
8:17 That axe was brutal.
10:52 yeah I agree Alucard.
what
39:57 Like you could catch him even if you tried 🤣
I think flying through the library as the bat was the best part 👍
Remember: WALLS ARE SUGGESTIONS.
Dracula: WTF was that?
Skeleton: I have no idea boss.
Succubus: I think Alucard came to visit but...
Orlox: That was Alucard!?! I thought it was the humanoid typhoon!!
Succubus: He *is* the Humanoid Typhoon... did you hear that?
Dracula: I... He's in the walls. The Hu- *Alucard's in the walls!*
Vietnam flashbacks, castlevania tas edition
Slogra: he's here isn't he?
Gaibon: guess we'll die then.
Stair clip resumed in 1 word
12:07
Dracula : How ? How is that I have been so defeated ?
Alucard : You have been doomed ever since you lost the ability to understand about TAS Speedrun.
Dracula: Son, I've changed the look of the castle, there's no way you can make it through that fas--
Alucard: *Whoosh* Hey Dad.
Dracula: WHAT THE FUC--
3:46
Maria: Wait a minu-
Alucard: *Silence, wench*
Maria: Wait a minu-
Alucard: *NOPE*
Just imagine being the faerie assigned as Alucard's familiar. Can't even keep up... let alone be his cleric.
She's the one in need of healing once this is all through.
🧚♂️- “Alucard!!! PLEASE JUST UNEQUIP ME SO I DONT HAVE TO TRY AND KEEP UP!!!!!!!
Alucard- No time…,.
Man... These damage stacks at the beginning is sick!
3:46 Maria: wait a minute!
Alucard: No time!
I like the part where the white haired guy said "blah" as he attacked the monster.
I felt so identified with Alucard, every time he said "what?!" all the run along.
This has to be one of the most entertaining tas you can watch
Alucard: * moves on moon walk *
Drácula and bosses: *_God have mercy on my soul_*
34:35 I 100% understand what is happening
The tas back dashing is so cool. It looks like they forgot to animate Alucard walking while simultaneously giving him fuckibg speed lines. it's like he's constantly teleport an inch behind himself. Fuck this shit I'm out style.
And oh my God the giggling from the shop keep after creating infinite money and just leaving it on the counter and taking the entire shop home is Hilarious.
15:25 TASbot is such a cheeky little shit some times LuL.
Now let's wait for a new one with recent routes and glitches.
alucard really moonwalk through the entire castle, the man was so smooth that everyone DIES
...now THAT...is a MOONWALK
35:00 HU-HU-HU-HU-HUMILIATION !!!!!!!!
Holy balls. I thought I'd played the shit out of this game some years ago but I don't remember half this shit? Anyway, great TAS of a great game.
You never got to the Inverted Castle?
"I used the sire to destroy the sire."
26:57 How is this even possible??
Tool Assisted Speedrun TAS.
It's not possible for humans, but it's possible for a machine tool which is what is doing it lol.
@@nicak777alex9 you missed the joke
Alucard, regarding the speed of this TAS: WHAT!
Thank god there is little back step scratching sound
I have a question I know is crazy but somebody has to ask it: what would happen if somehow somebody succeeds in making Alucard sit in the reverted chapel's confessional room?
From a technical standpoint I don’t think you could do it without heavily modifying that room, and even then you’d have to flip the sprites for what happens
From a “what if they programmed it in?” standpoint, anything could happen I guess. Maybe they’d heal you instead of stabbing
(I don’t know everything about SotN, I don’t know why they stab me when I play)
I tried to TAS a game on bizhawk can't figure out how you do it as i never used it before
Did moose somehow skip the scene where death takes your stuff
yes. i'm pretty sure that as long as you don't touch the ground in that room, the cutscene never triggers, so by being sent flying through the room by an enemy in the room before it, alucard enters the next loading zone without touching the ground, skipping the cutscene and keeping his original gear.
There are other ways to trigger that effect. One I've seen speedrunners do is use the Neutron Bomb or whatever you can start the game with to trigger a level up at just the right positioning so that as soon as you enter that room, the game automatically forces you to the next room. You see the TAS do something similar at 3:15 or so. I don't quite get how it works.
They way I have gone about accomplishing this was to use the max luck cheat and then you take a hit and fly through the room. You do keep the Alucard gear for skipping the cutscene.
Death Skip, as it’s called.
There’s a few ways. One is via Big Toss, where Alucard receives a high enough damage (based on your weak defense) that tosses you at a high velocity. The Big Toss’ velocity is fast enough to where you go to the room where Death triggers, but control of Alucard cannot be used because he was still in a “tossed state”. The bonk on the ceiling stops the velocity, but Alucard safely makes it into the next room.
Another way is called Reverse Shift Line: by doing a big animation at the right pixel (ex. Heart Refresh, Neutron Bomb, or Level Up), you can alter the X or Y coordinantes of Alucard to where he can skip an entire block/room of the map. In this case, the nearest room to his right was where Death takes your stuff.
This is very technical information, but the person who would know far more than anyone would be DragonBlitz on Twitch, multiple WR holder of SotN in various categories (minus data corruption, which is a dumb category). Check him out!
Yea it's a glitch I've done it before while my friends where over and they were like the fuckk lmao
that was quick
Do anybody know exactly how to continuously fly fast while in bat transformation or can give me some pointers on it?
If I'm not late:
While in bat form, hold jump to stop in air, then press up, left (or right), down, right (or left), and then release jump, that's how you do it
You need to repeat this pattern just in air, if you want to save speed
Nice try but this is clearly Moonwalker on Sega
I LOVE YOU ForgoneMoose
Now he's just gonemoose
@@MalleusSemperVictor WHAT?!
You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't watch with subtitles on.
*applause*

Caraba joga muito
Isso é Tas 😂😂😂

Quer dizer o robô né, kkk
oh god 22 minutes in and it literally breaks the game!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Makes him the best moon walker also lol
When he got shield rod ?
Alucard on crack
Amazing! What a great player
Huh, that can be. **deep inhalation**
I just realized that Alucard's voice sounds a lot like Lumpy's voice from Happy Tree Friends I didn't knowed of that Alucard ripped off Lumpy from Happy Tree Friends. Also Richter's and Flippy's voices sound very similar, Talking Seri0US💉.
❤️❤️
Why/how does he get hit and fly back 1000 yards? Im playin this game atm and dont get it, im aware this is tas though.
It's a trick that's not tas only, human speedrunners use it. If you played super metroid it's a trick similarly used in super metroid. It's a damage boost
Get hit for more than half your max HP to get knocked back 1000 yards.
@@SyRose901 got the full 216.3 percent now hahaha Im super sotn nerd level now, never tried the luck mode though and never had the super knock back happen to me yet
@@BigBevev Yeah, at high levels, it just never happens because you have so much HP lol
@@SyRose901 this game needs a boss rush mode or something,. Once you hit right around level 62 the game isn’t as fun. I’m trying to hit level 99, and also trying to get muramasa to like at least 300 damage to copy into a new game. Time consuming though, I haven’t. Played in about two months.
Regardless, thanks for responding, better “late” than never.

What happened at 2:48?
Video Skipped at 3:18 to 3:19
Video *didn't* skip at 6:37 to 6:38 (this was a Wall-Clip glitch based around loading screen approach vector manipulation, possibly frame-perfect)
You should add an Infocard at each visual glitch to explain when the multiple visual glitches are expected (marking which ones had been on purpose, and which one was comparable to 2:48 timestamp), this could increase your Like percentage.
@@BlueNEXUSGaming WTF are you even talking about xD. Video didn't skip at 3:18 , it's a reverse shiftline. 6:37 is a regular shift line to fall downwards.
Timecards are not needed, this is a TAS, you should know about runs in general if you want to get into TAS. This is not educational for the general public, it's mostly the best resource to stablish human and non human limits to a run.
@@Elpinchelack
Then perhaps they should mention this bullshit, instead of uploading something appearing as a video jump-cut; I've personally previously edited videos I've personally made, constructing a LESS edited appearance than this video; if they are employing advanced techniques: then they should cite these sources; otherwise they are disqualified from World Record status, and thus: they are no longer qualified to build TAS runs; nor are they qualified to build RTS runs.
And this is why you don't legalize fairy sugar.
👍😃👍
I had no idea that the wolf could run underwater?
Requires the Holy Symbol.
Wolf can also just... Swim? The way it swims is a little less simple than you'd think, though. But yes, Wolf can swim up a waterfall.
How do you back-dash so fast?
This is Tas :)
@@geonesan ?
@@meneerjansen00 tool assisted speed run its just an ai doing the speedrun that humans cant do also if you wanna back dash fast just repeat ∆ and O
@@idk7h3 Thank you for explaining what TAS (tool assisted speedrun) is. I didn't know that.
Dude skipped passed death for getting your weapons taken from you 😂😂😂😂
Hehehehehehehe,Farewell for now
Let me guess, chatgpt was playing this. A human is impossible.
TAS
Micheal Jacksons Moonwalker
Well done bro 😏👉👉
Pity the Castlevania series on Netflix didn't make Alucard like this.
Luck mode TAS? Welp, that's something
Michael Jackson played this.
Quê ?
What is a TAS if not a miserable pile of Speedrunning?
Non downvoted
This is so perfectly done it’s almost impossible to believe!!
