This speed run guide/walkthrough is written according to CaT's playstyle
on a fresh run on EASY mode. Best for intermediate and above players.

Stage 4-1, 4-2, 4-3
(Minimum aim: ~45 sec)

Run past all the enemies and enter the next area. In stage 4-3, you might want to break some of the objects in the hopes of getting cards to prepare for the next battle, but that chance is VERY slim. It will also waste you quite some time.

Stage 4-4: The Three Stooges
(Minimum aim: ~2 min)

Before you proceed to initiate the battle, check to see if you have any orbs. If you have none, you might want to turn to your left and break all the objects by the wall up to the barrel. The barrel drops you a green card. Then turn around, stick to the wall and break the objects on the other side until you enter battle. If you're lucky you may get another green card.

Ideally, what you'd want to do is to do a Dragon Kick on BOTH Felix and Bruce, but since it's way harder to pull off successfully than you think, settling with a different might be a little more mental-friendly.

So, as the battle begins, run over to the two, stand in between them and do a Typhoon Kick. That should send them flying away in separate directions, hopefully opposite. Before the other two come to interrupt, quickly find the chance to spam High Side Kick cancels on Bruce (the boomerang dude). By the time Bruce dies you should have enough TP to unleash godhand. If you're short of a little, taunt them from a safe distance and unleash it on Conchita immediately.

Stage 4-5
(Minimum aim: ~45 sec)

Run straight for the switch where the elite stands, turn it on and then jump up to the 2nd floor. Ignore the enemies chasing after you and turn on the 3 switches there without even destroying the stamping machines. (Run under it and quickly turn it on, then back flip away) Once all 3 switches are turned on and the door opens, quickly enter it, jump down the ladder and proceed to the next area.

Stage 4-6
(Minimum aim: ~1 min 15 sec)

Run around the corner, pick up the explosive can and turn on the first switch. Throw the can at the lady in the middle and it should hit all 3 of them. The lady isn't dead yet, though, so quickly kill her off by guard breaking and punching endlessly.

Once she's down, go back to the boxes where you found the explosive can, break the first one, pick up the rocket launcher and run past the bridge to turn on the 2nd switch. Fire the rocket launcher at the robot thug in the center. With some luck you may be able to hit and kill all 5 in one shot. One of these 5 is likely to turn into a demon, but if they're all dead, the gate will open and you can just run past all of them to the next area. If not, you may want to consider resetting. LOL. Lastly, pick up at least one green card if any is dropped.

Stage 4-7
(Minimum aim: ~2 min 50 sec)

Run into the cage and Typhoon Kick all 4 ladies. Make sure that you do it only when the ladies are all in standing position or you may miss one of them. If you have godhand ready, unleash it on the trident demon. If not, keep punching it nonstop and duck only when he swings his trident sideways, then quickly counter, rinse and repeat.

Against the next 2 enemies (robot skinny asses), perform La Bomba on them if you have any orbs. If not, Face Kick them all. Once they're down, pick up the trident and any dropped cards and continue to the next cage. 

Here, wait for the 2 enemies to land and launch them with the trident (press /\) so that they fly and hit the electric cage. 2 launches should be enough to kill both of them. Repeat the same on the last enemy. Then pick up any dropped cards and proceed to the next area.

Stage 4-8: Azel
(Minimum aim: ~45-60 sec)

I hope that you have at least ONE orb to begin with. If not, you can try breaking the pots here in the hopes of one. Anyway, considering that you need some more TP before you can unleash godhand, use the Chain Yanker + Yes Man Kablaam tactic to fill up your TP AND position yourself so that Azel is stuck between you and a wall.

Once you're ready, unleash godhand and spam Fist of Justice (fully charged). As long as Azel doesn't get too far away from you and that every single one of your Fist of Justice hits, a single unleash should be enough to finish the battle.

Stage 4-9
(Minimum aim: ~40 sec)

Your point here is to kill the one elite lady to open the gate. If you have an orb, run around the corner, do a slide kick (Dash + X) at the rocket fatty so that he won't interrupt you with his rocket balls, and then run towards the lady in the center and perform Typhoon Kick. That should kill the 2 other ladies but not the elite. Try your best using any method to take her out ASAP. If you didn't have any orbs for a Typhoon Kick, kick off the 2 regular ladies quickly before dealing with the elite.

Once the elite is down, pick up the bikini card from the barrel on the left, run past the gate and enter the next area. Be careful of the fatty behind the gate who's likely to start firing rockets at you.

Stage 4-10
(Minimum aim: ~1 min 15 sec)

Unleash godhand the moment battle begins. Punch as fast as possible so that Dr Ion is dizzied by the end of your unleash. Then, get in a few Yes Man Kablaams and unleash godhand again when it's full.
