Line 870: Line 870:
Mario approaches the first red coin on the outside of the maze as before, and collects the next six red coins as described in a previous star. This time, instead of ground pounding the blue coin block, he jumps down, moves back slightly and kicks the wall in front of the eighth and final red coin, spawning the red coin star with his backwards velocity intact. After the cutscene, Mario falls down backwards and collects the star.

Mario long jumps thrice towards the 50 star door and enters it as normal, then BLJing up the stairs leading to [[Bowser in the Sky]] and clipping into the course entrance.

===Bowser in the Sky (with red coins)===
Mario starts with two long jumps and then triple jumps up to the first red coin, slightly straining backwards to reach it. After diving down, he long jumps and then dives and recovers from falling off of the bended tilting platform in front, jump diving and rapidly diving into the steep floor and then double jumping towards the rotating platform to his left, wall kicking off of it with a dive. Dive recovering, he lands on the second red coin and quickly dives and dive recovers down to the third red coin by the small ledge; then diving, dive recovering, side flipping and wall kicking up to the vertically rotating platforms with the 1-up mushroom. On these, Mario side flips again and wall kicks on a left platform as it moves down up to the block switch, dive grinding on the side of the retracting stairs with jump dives to bypass the switch. At the top, he jump dives twice up the steep floors while avoiding the fire, jumping to collect the fourth red coin. After this, Mario performs a pause-buffered BLJ on another steep floor to skip the horizontally moving elevator and collect the fifth red coin, then stopping by the sixth red coin with kicks and triple jumping up to the pole, grabbing and then jumping off after climbing briefly while collecting the seventh red coin. After jump diving twice in a straight line, he reaches another two sets of rotating platforms, side flipping and wall kicking up to the highest one and BLJing (with some pause buffered) to clip into the eighth red coin and spawn its star. Once spawned, Mario side flips to his right, jump dives and dives on the pipe into the star and collects it, then turns around, double jumps and dives into the pipe to fight Bowser for the final time.
====Final Bowser Fight====
====Final Bowser Fight====
Mario immediately double jumps over Bowser, grabbing him and throwing the first time. This process is repeated as soon as he gets up for the second throw. For the final throw, Mario side flips and grabs him as the parts of the arena around the edge fall, throwing him for the third time and defeating him. The [[Grand Star|grand star]] spawns, and Mario dives into it, ending the game with all 120 stars.
