info dump:
In 4-4 it might be possible to skip some of the level. There are blocks that break only when stood on that I can't break from below... And there is one chest that could be gotten using an ability that makes Kirby move through walls (Sword, fighter, ninja) but doesn't work either. Final cutter from losing ability (stand on air glitch) doesn't work.
I tried many things on both the JP and EN version, but looks like I have to take the 20 sec detour...
EDIT: Using the meltable blocks I can final cutter to get the big chest and skip having to fight Storo.
EDIT: Turns out you have to fight Storo in either way, if you have gotten the big chest. So the final cutter skip is almost pointless.
Normal ability usage: Wheel, fire, wheel, fire, wheel (kill Storo with wheel?)
Final cutter route: Wheel, fire, sword, wheel (")
Final cutter route is impractical for item glitching and I think the alternative route used is a bit longer. So probably the first route will be used.

Through-platform glitch would be useful. Currently there is one glitch in Kirby amazing mirror where you can use the enemy that transforms to a breakable block to clip through. And in SqSq you can use this

100% notes have been completed. Now working on the route.

EDIT:
These notes are incomplete and have mistakes. I will post an updated version later (not that I expect others to understand them but it's good for future reference).
