i took nankai local + metro (plus a 10 minute walk in namba)... this would be the same time as limo bus + walk. but i didnt want to walk outside with the luggage.
i reckon nankai rapidt + taxi would set you back 1300yen for the train and 1500 for the taxi. the taxi can probably shave 10 minutes off and the rapidt would greatly depend on how long do you have to wait for one. If you have just missed a rapidt you will just be faster than the local train by minutes after waiting for one.

if one takes a taxi at umeda after limo... it might take you slightly longer because of the detour. AND i dont like the bus, it's too warm and prone to traffic (I still take it if I go to the IC tho, because of the short walk and the Osaka loop line is SLOWWWWW).
