The Japanese version's any% is 3683 frames faster (61.28 sec). The text is 4555 frames faster, but 874 frames slower in 46 menus, and 2 frames faster in the intro. Also, I believe that rescuing Backup instead of Twin Shot Prisoner is faster in the Japanese version, but I need to test it because of damage considerations.

The Japanese version's deathless is 3651 frames faster (60.75 sec). The text is 4658 frames faster, but 1007 frames slower in 53 menus, and 2 frames faster in the intro.

Here is a breakdown of the timing differences, with the amount of frames saved in the Japanese version, except menus which are slower:

-19 Menu(weapon/equip) 0 Transceiver

0 Deathwarp

0 Item Get

2 Intro (could use -13.06 instead of -13.1 instead)

68 Moving Truck (2 of these in any%, 1 in deathless)

74 B1F3 Ammo Rooms Prisoner (64 text, 10 smaller box)

200 B1F3 SW Prisoner

74 B1F3 NW Prisoner

168 B1F3 E Prisoner

100 B1F1 NE Prisoner

74 B5 S Prisoner

74 B5 N Prisoner

57 “I'm getting sleepy!”

41 “I feel asleep!”

41 “OK, your turn!”

38 “OK! in we go!”

Here is time cost for the time wasting messages:

“I'm getting sleepy!!” – U 93 (1.55 sec) – J 36 (0.60 sec)

“I feel asleep!!” – U 73 (1.21 sec) – J 32 (0.53 sec)

“ok, your turn!!” – U 73 (1.21 sec) – J 32 (0.53 sec)

“ok!! in we go!!” – U 70 (1.16 sec) – J 32 (0.53 sec)

delay for each slow capture – 190 frames (3.16 sec)

for both ration duplication inside a truck ONLY – 142 frames (2.36 sec) for both.

If this is done elsewhere it will be more because of the difference of screen transition. I will add that later.
