Funny story: I loved ActRaiser, but I have never finished ActRaiser 2.
In this one jungly stage, there are big leaves that serve as platforms. I get to a dead end going right, and it looks like I might be able to jump left and float to a ledge there to continue, but it's just out of reach. I tried so many times, and always fell short. I remember looking at walkthroughs/FAQs and they never mentioned anything of interest in that area as if to say that's something I should be able to handle. I always found that bizarre and it is one of the earliest games that I wanted to finish but couldn't, and it's frustrating that it's not something like a difficult boss battle that stops me, just a ledge a bit too far that no one else seems to have a problem with.
Maybe if there were maps I could see whatever it is I've been missing all this time.
