I'm running this right now. Struggling at some parts. 49:18 is my pb so far. How do you jump and whip so much on Carmilla & Drac? What are the inputs for that whip? I can only do it by mashing sometimes but not consistent. Great job!

For the first whip (jumping up) I just slide my thumb from A to B to whip as soon as possible after I start jumping. The second whip is executed on the descent. It can be tricky to get the hang of, but once you find the rhythm it's pretty easy. I will say though that I find it really hard to do on an emulator but very easy on actual console. Possibly due to input delay.

Nice cat on the picture.

I wonder... Are the controls for this game clunkier on emu? I tried doing your Aljiba farming method, but I can't get it. I know you have to be extremely precise, but sometimes it also feels like I don't hit something when I should have. This problem is also evident given that I have a habit of falling in water.

Well, it can feel clunkier on emu since most emulators have some input lag, some more than others. And with how precise the grind is it can make it really hard to get down as you have to adjust your timings a bit. Myself I can't do the grinds, the Carmilla or Dracula whip rhythm on emu.
