Stick around for a bit; one of the port maintainers will eventually poke their head in here.

As a result of big improvements of timings, some games which worked wrongly in previous versions have begun to get some problems. I'm not sure yet whether that's the case or not for this game though.

Won't 1.53 have some fixes that Byuu suggested to be made?

That's probably the case here, yes. Umihara does funky things with the water at the bottom of the maps; it was a long time before emulators could deal with it. The flicker here is exactly how it used to perform.
