No you didn't. You just killed your own mother who went batshit crazy and started a stupid, needless war. The insects and reptiles were both innocent casualties who died because a war got started for completely the wrong reasons.

Nice of you to cut off the ending so noone who knows Japanese can actually translate it for the rest of us. I mean, at least your viewers would have probably liked to see the artwork and perhaps the credits.

You got killed here because you allowed yourself to be pinned up against the screen when aimed bullets were fired at you, forcing you to move up into even more dangerous territory. At the time I posted, there's a huge gap where you could have moved right and then streamed the aimed bullets.

7:22

The 'infamous' version of Larsa is her Ultra Mode one. In God Mode, the smaller hitbox + significantly more damaging shottypes makes her considerably easier (not to mention Ultra is just harder).

No... it didn't... at all. Palm shouts "Ima da [Let's go], Hirow!" when firing a bomb along with a massive sustained burst of electricity. :|

4:37

The 1UP inside the building only drops if you destroy the building without using a bomb, but you can easily get it by bombing when you see the land dragon at 4:20, which will kill it and clear the bullets long enough for you to safely get up the screeen and nab it, at least fairly reliably.

Stage 5 actually isn't all that bad. Stage 3 has a few sections I honestly find trickier (Stage 4 is easier than Stage 3 to most people for that matter). However, the parts you keep referring to as 'unfair' only seem that way to you because you haven't worked out how to get through them. This isn't the sort of game that will just let you waltz to the final boss without dying your first time through; there are many times you died where the gaps were huge and you easily could have survived.

Are you aware that the game comes with a Novice arrangement intended for beginners? If you go to the top menu and select Arrangement, then move left or right, the option should switch from Arrange to Novice. It's basically 1.5 with fewer shots and autobombing if you get hit. Ultra still has the true final boss if you beat the game without continuing though, and I think Novice Maniac or Ultra might be a better difficulty for you to practice first at (Novice Original is probably too easy).
