Majora's Mask 100%: English vs Japanese Timings

Most timings are rough timings to get an idea of how much the differences are.

ENGLISH TIMESAVES:

Faster loading zones: 										 ??? 				(Way too difficult to time; saves more than text)
Faster pauses in certain areas: 							 ??? 				(Too difficult to time; needs more testing)
SoDT Mikau walking cutscene skip: 							 0:16   /  0:16
Goron void in Woodfall Temple: 								 0:06   /  0:22
Hookshot clip to butler race: 								 0:06   /  0:28
Void in Snowhead to get put at owl statue: 					 0:02.5 /  0:30.5
SoDT pirates cutscene skip: 								 0:05.5 /  0:36
Instant ice arrow on GBT waterwheel: 						 0:02   /  0:38

Not a timesave, but english postman is incredibly easy and JP postman is incredibly difficult and can still go wrong even if you do everything correctly. Postman HP pretty much always requires a setup on JP, but doesn't on english.



JAPENESE TIMESAVES:

Faster text: 												 ??? 				(Also way too difficult to time, english saves some)
Power crouch stab: 											 ??? 				(Needs more testing for strats and hard to time)
Blind pirates at night: 									 0:18   /  0:18
Sirloin superslide: 										 0:04.5 /  0:22.5
Beans in Deku Palace 2: 									 0:07   /  0:29.5
Longer cutscene dive in STT: 								 ??? 				(Untimed)
Spike roll to mountain gossips: 							 0:01   /  0:30.5
Longer cutscene dive in Waterfall Rapids: 					 ??? 				(Untimed)
GFS PCS at Gyorg (Beans/Moon's Tear/Room Key): 				 0:13.5 /  0:44
Shorter cutscene after Sakon's hideout: 					 0:07.5 /  0:51.5
Better position after Dampé grave clip: 					  0:08   /  0:59.5
Business Scrub cutscene skip with return A: 				 0:12   /  1:11.5
Shorter cutscene at Epona: 									 0:03   /  1:14.5
Faster town shooting gallery waves: 						 0:15 	/  1:29.5
No SoDT fade from day to night (Matters 3 times): 			 0:11   /  1:40.5

Also not technically a timesave, but JP weirdshots don't crash if you hold Z and you have 2 more frames for a sideways weirdshot (2nd framer). On english, weirdshots crash if you hold Z for more than 2 frames after hookshot input. Generally, all weirdshots on english are buffered to avoid advancing too many frames.



Ocarina dive before beavers works on english if you equip after exiting
Faster carrots in Milk Road don't appear to save any time
Deku princess cutscene skip and various other things based on bottle route are now the same in both versions due to room key/pendant dive on JP
Blue potion doesn't save any time on english due to it costing too much; even if you could buy it, you can't skip a poe dupe.
