Welcome to Plant Castle, which is full of ceiling spikes, those eyeballs from the original game and a boss that is strangely made a bit easier in the Western version.
Plant Castle
The ceiling spikes are instant death, so don't jump into them.
The eyeballs will blow up the bridge portions under them if they happen to be on the bridge. when you hit them.
In the room full of ropes, climb up the one on the far left so the skeleton that is sliding down does not take you by surprise.
The big bat splits into two smaller bats when you hit it, and those smaller bats will be moving when they show up.
The wall above the door leading to the second outdoor bridge section contains wall meat. You must hit the wall segment with the whip itself; whip projectiles will not uncover it. At that section, stick tot he bridge; the plant growth on the low road will slow you down. You'll eventually have to go down; make sure the monsters there don't power down your whup. You'll find more wall meat above the next door.
The spiders that spit projectiles also create ropes you can climb on with their web strands; make sure the spiders come down rather low before whacking them.
The boss is a pair of statues. Get on the platform in the center quickly, then hit the statue heads when they put their tridents down. Having the ax makes this easier, as you can hit them from below. (Take that, Japanese version!) The whip can destroy the projectiles that the statues spit out. When the statue walls move away, they will be harder to hit unless you have a projectile, but they will eventually move back towards the center. Thankfully, both statues share the same energy bar, so as long as you're hitting a statue in the face, you'll be all right.
