This mission was SO much more difficult than it needed to be... The amount of speed ups in the video should convey that much. The main problem is that a majority of the coins in this mission only appear after performing a certain task, meaning that the coin appears for a limited time before despawning. Missing the coin before the despawn means the challenge is lost.
Add in the fact that Yoshi is at the very beginning of the level and so you have to backtrack there every time you need to get him just to see what fruit he wants, run to the grove area, get the fruit, then go back, and you have a very aggravating mission.

There are also some coins that I got at the beginning of the attempt because they're very finicky. The bells' coins can sometimes spawn into the wall, and if you don't get them first, then they have a chance of just... not showing up at all. Then for the first pokey, if you're not ready to fall into the lake to chase one of the coins, then you won't get them all due to how short the timer is for those coins. Lastly, the pondskaters have an annoying habit of moving too close to the shore or a lilypad, and if they do so, then they just... go away. Forever. Getting their coins early is important due to this.
