A huge thanks to @mikewii7 for his video tutorial in the 4U/XX QoL thread(cannot link at the time of posting) for making this possible. The game apparently has a max fps of 200 which is the culprit for making it run very slow on Citra. 2D mode will also improve performance.

Update: October 22, 2022
Thanks to @mikewii7 for finding the filter codes in other MH games.
I have ported this code over to MHST and it fixes the gas mode blur in Citra, although it will make some backgrounds darker as a side effect. It appears the bloom during battle in ice levels is not removed with the code, don't know why.

These codes have been made for the EU version but might work on US.

Monster Hunter Stories EU/US?
Code: 
[60 FPS cap]

For 30 FPS, change 427 to 41F

Code:

088F036A = FSAA_2D::OFF|mDitherDisplay0::OFF
088F436A = FSAA_2D::OFF|mDitherDisplay0::OFF|NoAADisplay1::ON}

cool, yet to try it, this for the latest EU version? I'd be curious to also see this for the latest JPN version.

No, it's for 1.0

Did they ever release an update in the west? I went to the eShop just now and I didn't see any game updates at all and I haven't gotten any software notifications before launching the game either.

I don't have the JP version but if someone can provide an .elf file of the latest version(extract the game update and convert its code.bin to .elf) I can work it out probably. Though that would be a grey area.

Hmm, it has been awhile, I assumed the West got at least one Update since Japan got a few but I guess not, sorry for the confusion.
