[TAS] DS Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow "Julius mode" by mtbRc in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2459M
TAS originally published on 2013-09-24
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow (2005), the first installment of Castlevania on Nintendo DS, is a direct sequel to GBA hit Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow.
Like its predecessor, after finishing the game, you can choose to ignore pretty-boy Soma Cruz and instead play as Julius Belmont. Unfortunately, it seems that Julius's skills have waned a bit since his last appearance ( tasvideos.org/2689M ). Yoko Belnades and Alucard easily pick up the slack, though... or they would, but this run skips Yoko.
Unlike our other Julius run for Dawn of Sorrow ( tasvideos.org/2085M ) which goes through more of the game, this run manages to skip most of the game by using a zipping glitch to get into the Mine of Judgement early.

I'm a simple man. I see Castlevania TAS with Julius, and I anticipate:
ULEULEULEULEULEULEULE
And then I was sad. ☹️

It made him too powerful, he had to be nerfed.

[@TheBigL1]

It's just not the same without U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-UREH

I only know sliding simulator and backdash simulator, but never heard about seizure simulator

Julius: *Drank a Monster...again!*
Alucard: Can I have a Monster?
Julius: Here! *Gives Alucard a Monster*
Yoko: Is there one for me?
Julius and Alucard:

[@Baximus]

Julius mode in this game kicks ass.

[@TTRPG_Witch_Leon]

*Sees Julius Mode*
*Thinks: Alright, Julius Belmont gets little screentime as is, gonna be cool*
*2:01** mark happens*
*Also me: Alucard mode it is.* 😟

Julius can still ULE like a badass even for an old guy 👌

Dracula defeated. “We’re starting to feel bad for em” says residents.

[@probablytawny]

The little hops filled me with such joy. More like fleaman mode

Man that is one hyper son of a gun.

[@krazytaxicabbie]

If you’re gonna watch this watch in 2X speed.

[@guttgrinder1626]

Haha even better!

[@Hadaron]

Me, who does that regardless of video: “nothing’s changed”

[@Tacosombrero123]

Brutal

[@servedbot7377]

Based off of this mode, which ending is canon?

[@pyrogriffsugisaki2986]

The Soma story.

[@fae_gavan7582]

The regular mode. Soma actually had a cameo in a novel taking place after DOS. Forgot what it was, unfortunately.

[@Gravitorrr]

Миксер мне в глаза😵

[@catstealer419dominion7]

Jackhammer-like

[@J_Stevens89]

Very annoying choice of playing.

[@crispcat]
