This isn't possible with glitches yet, but if we can find a way to get into an adult only cutscene as child, we'll see this.
Punch is the best weapon type in Belmont's Curse, the combo damage boost applies to magic and even relics, here is a preview of what speedruns will look like in the future (this is done at Level 18 with Fists of Talos)
Dampe RNG has been solved on OoT
When Dampe blinks, he flutters his eyes either 3 or 4 times. By taking note of how long each blink is and putting them in a calculator, the possible RNG seeds can eventually be narrowed down to guarantee the heart piece, at the cost of some waiting.

Belmont's Curse movement tech: By attacking right after starting an air dash, Rose keeps some forward momentum. This seems to be about 15% faster than slide -> air dash.
Works with any weapon type except Great Sword or Whip
Belmont's Curse has the strongest parry of any Castlevania game. Here's a Medusa one cycle at just level 7, expect to see this in speedruns very soon
Really cool new glitch in OoT was just found. Using a bottled item as a lingering hitbox is disappearing can cause the bottled item to overwrite damage values. 2 big uses so far are beating Volvagia without hammer, and Ganondorf without light arrows.
Castlevania Rondo of Blood completed without taking damage! People consider this an easy game but as a No Hit Speedrun, Rondo is one of the very toughest Classicvanias.
Here are some highlights to show you what I mean
Konami basically just confirmed that a Castlevania 3D collection of some kind is in development and will release after Belmont's Curse.
But which games will be included? No sign of CV64... Definitely a big day for PS2 Vania fans!
Everyone's talking about Metroid again so here's my favorite bit of tech from Zero Mission, the Wall Jump Bomb Jump:
