How to unlock the Speed Run achievement in SCOTT PILGRIM VS THE WORLD THE GAME - Definitive Guide
Having tried for this several times, I have found out a few things:
1) It's best not to try this on the first go, but play as Knives first to unlock ALL levels while leveling her up to max (16) and all of her stats first so you'll have an easier time.
2) It is not possible to get this achievement in the same playthrough with
because of the method of playing first with your character on Average Joe to unlock all stages and then just replaying the parts of the game with the bosses to beat Supreme Master. I tried, and it didn't work so I went back and replayed it on Average Joe from start to finish.
3) You MUST do this in one sitting; you can't just paly halfway through and then stop and quit the game and come back later.
Now, here's the set-up:
First, use on the title screen to unlock the Power of Love Sword.
Second, as stated above, play as Knives on whatever difficulty you wish and level her out to Max, including her stats. Here's a guide I found on how to up stats without having to grind for Wallace's Mystery Shop or the Video Store method:
Sushi Bar (World 1, Shopping District)
-Buy 4 Avocado Hosomaki ($2.50 x 4 = $10.00) to boost your SPD by 4
Shock Wave Record (World 1, Shopping District)
-Buy 12 Smashing Turnips albums ($16.95 x 12 = $203.40) to boost your STR by 96
-Buy 12 Crash and teh Boys albums ($14.95 x 12 = $179.40) to boost your SPD by 96 (making it 100)
Scott's Dad BBQ (World 5, Fire Escape)
-Buy 2 Kebabs ($4.95 x 2 = $9.90) to boost your STR by 4 (making it 100)
Mobile's Secret House (World 6)
NOTE: This is hidden in the beginning of the first level; you need to go through two trees that are between 4 people loitering around. Be warned, sometimes this won't work right away for some reason, so keep trying since you'll need to go tehre anyway for both the Special Training item to buy, and for the food items you need for another achievement.
-Buy 25 Sauteed Shiitake ($9.95 x 25 = $248.75) to boost your DEF and WP to 100 each.
Finally, once you've beaten the game the first time around and have all your stats maxed out, start from the very beginning and go to town on the enemies. With the Love Sword (save for the boss fight with Todd and Techno Base part), and your stats maxed out, this should be a piece of cake.
Use the Subspace Highways to help move along quickly, and mostly ignore grabbing dropped money. I say mostly because you might need to buy some extra food at the shops along the way, especially towards the end.
One last tip: If you have extra dough when you start the final full playthrough, grab some 1-ups for emergencies.
Good hunting!

great guide but if I may just add one thing? You can max out your stats at the first shopping district you see in level 1. To do this you need to pay off Scotts late fees in the DVD store and after that you are able to buy a selection of videos, The two u mainly want to buy out are (Seven Shaolin masters and Alone and distrubed.) The video I will link can save everyone a crazy amount of time and the (not so terrible) small loading segments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SejOEs-5HLc&t=44s

Appreciate the suggestion, but I found the method I prescribe as a bit quicker than paying off Scott's late fees, plus you'd get your Strength and Speed upped which allows for faster, easier kills.

Before attempting this, I recommend you to max out Knives to level 16. This will make it a lot easier.
The difficulty doesn't matter here. You simply need to beat ALL 7 levels from start to finisih in one single session without quitting. Which will take you about an hour at level 16.
To save a little bit of time, I recommend to use the subspace Highways segments in the levels 1, 4 and 5 for shortcuts.

Square, Square, Square, X, Circle, Triangle for the Power of Love Sword. It makes things go by quicker.

This guide was translated automatically.
It only counted on the third try. You need to go through the Knives in one go without going to the menu. I didn't even press the pause button just in case.
I don't recommend doing it online, because even when playing privately, we got softlocks.

If you think to pass by cutting levels (killing only bosses) - it won't help. We go through the whole sequence completely. Just be careful, because when you repeat the passage, the levels themselves do not switch and if you quickly press X, you will start to replay the same level that you just passed. It took me about 50 minutes, I passed without cheat codes for the sword.

You can use a cheat on the sword
It will also help you level up faster with a cheat for $50 per life - before that, buy a boost of coffee or tea
then pump up all the stats in the secret shop under the bridge or in the shop where the first deposit is $504
