Link forward throw hurtbox and hitbox visualization

Overview

Kick hitlag anomaly

Against Mr. Game & Watch, the kick's hitbox will not connect until the same frame as the throw, and due to the throw dealing more knockback, its hitlag (which is none) overrides that of the kick, and thus only Link suffers hitlag. This has the effect of increasing the effective lag of the throw.
