Thanks again for posting that! I edited my video description to contain a link to your video, and the info was posted to speedrun.com as well.
Also, welcome to the forums! This place has been really inactive lately, though.

I'm glad it turned out to be of some use, and thank you for the welcome!
I'll be on the lookout for any similar exploits later in the game, so if I discover any, I'll be sure to let you know.

A year has passed and I've only just now found a possible improvement regarding the setup for the clip to the mines. While messing about with some timing comparisons during a stream, I stumbled across a different method for performing it, which has much tighter timing, but is faster by about half a second.
Here's a Twitch clip comparing this method with the old one:

Personally when I made my playthrough of Ys for Sega Master System, I was looking for a way to skip leveling since watching someone level can be one of the dullest moments in a game. I found one. Heck, it's capable of doing all sorts of weird stuff.
If you stand at a certain pixel, touch your nose while dancing to the ballad of Bilbo Baggings and then talk to Pim, anything can happen!
But more serious though:
* Start a new game. * Go to Pim. * Select to buy the Wing item. * Buy it. * Now try to buy it any number of times you want more after this, even though you can't. * Exit the store.
Immediately, you'll see any number of possibilities happen based on what pixel the screen had been showing before entering the store, how many times you tried to buy the wing item, and so forth. The best and least harmful effects I've discovered from this is gaining max level, a few interesting starting items, and around like 8000+ gold, while the most "harmful" effects ( and I use the term loosely ) involves resetting the game, deleting save files, and soft-locking you in a glitch Darm Tower. In my playthrough specifically, all it did was to warp me a few meters in Minea and put me to max level, which was exactly what I wanted it to do kinda.

I found a weird soft lock in Chronicles which seems to be caused by loading a save file right as the screen fades back after defeating a boss.
It works after Pictimos;
Also after Nygtilger;
I've had no success in trying it on the other bosses so far.

Here's a short video about the Triple Feena EXP glitch!

That's an interesting glitch with Feena - But what if you use a Turbo controller and pre-set inputs? ;3

I'll need to boot up Chronicles+ in Hourglass (tool used to make TASes of Windows games, though still in development) sometime, and see if that's really the maximum or not.
