A speedrun of the new game plus (restarting the story while keeping your items, units, etc) category of Disgaea 5. The leaderboard for this can be seen here:

Apparently my mic failed to record, but I didn't say much anyway.
I fumbled a bit with some menus, so there's still time to save. I should also practice the Killidia fight some more. However a lot of time was saved compared to my 17:21 by:
- Generally selecting stages faster (which I was a little cautious about before as trying to do so too early results in redoing a previous stage, which wastes a run-killing amount of time).
- Using a custom base to start closer to the ep 4 Prinny location (though some of that time is lost again by having to jump back in-bounds).
- Using a gun normal attack instead of Comet Disaster to kill the 6-5 and 8-5 bosses (an idea taken from DisgaeaFan77's runs of this same category).
Another change was giving Lock Eyes to my units to counteract the Sandcano Netherworld effect (so I didn't have to deal with the extra miss chance).
I also deleted most of the unneeded units and items, in case it made any difference to loading times. I haven't confirmed if this actually matters though.
The strange-looking NPC placement is to place the Dimension Guide and the ep 2 Prinny close together and close to where the ep 4 yellow Prinny spawns.
