Runner introduction starts at 0:07 Run starts at 1:08 Couch commentary is provided by Zallard1 and Mikwuyma AnEternalEnigma is host

Thanks everyone! It was a pleasure. I have to be honest, I didn't know if I could pull off a WR during a marathon but I went for it anyway and I'm glad I did :)

Couch: So the best way to get through Mania is move slowly, deal with spawns as they happen, and not get right into a bunch of enemies Anthropants: *COWABUNGA IT IS*

The soundtrack for this game is so damn beautiful it brings tears to my eyes.

This game was my childhood. Skilled runner and great commentators. Thanks guys!

Anyone here after the launch of Streets of Rage 4? Can't wait to see that game's upcoming speedruns!!!!

Congratulations Antho! That was an amazing run!

No aliens, it’s a haunted house in an amusement park.

Yes! This game was easily the most memorable of my childhood. This run was amazing. Great job.

*Watching Abadede (Stage 4 boss) getting repeatedly Atomic Dropped* Me: Up yours Abadede! 🖕🏼 This is for all the times you’ve given me hell as a kid!

Damn, what a run! Seeing the strats for stage 6 on maneuvering Souther without having to deal with Stealth was pretty insightful. Amazing

Well done Anthopants! Best SoR2 & 3 player ever!

The music is so damn good, from second 1. I can't wait for Streets of Rage 4.

So happy to see this back, amazing run.

For the sake of viewers who do not watch Anthopants' stream regularly, I will translate Antho's facial expressions into Antho-isms. 2:16 - Donnie... 3:24 - C'mon, man! The knife has priority over the turkey? For frick's sake... 6:19 - I got it! 7:37 - Donnie...! 8:10 - I got turkey, freaks! Now what ya gonna do?! 10:27 - C'mon, man, get it together. 11:48 - Get IN on it, Signals! 12:39 - Do I point out it's actually the second instance? Nah, I got this. 13:23 - freakin' ninjas and their bullsh... 14:36 - Uuuuugh that was hard! 16:17 - C'mon, man! 16:48 - Trying... not... to crack... 18:02 - I'm gettin' too old for this sh--. 18:26 - Donnie!! 20:04 - Why can't I TIME THIS???!!!!?!!!?!?!!! 21:51 - I'm outta here. Goodbye cruel world! 23:36 - DONNIE!!! 25:47 - Why did I spawn all three? I immediately regret this decision! 28:42 - Yeah, I got some time to make up. 29:44 - DONNNNIEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! 30:22 - Yeah, I'm awesome. 32:12 - *cough* BULLS--- *cough* 33:09 - Hit the guys! 38:20 - HIT the guys! 40:40 - Why did he slap?! 44:40 - Nailed! 47:33 - DONN - oh wait, nope, never mind. GALCIA!!! 48:03 - HOLY F---!!! You're welcome.

The soundtrack from the game is Amazing! Yuzo koshiro is a GENIUS!!

Best soundtrack ever in any game

One of my all time favorite games

The commentry was excellent on this.. carried it thru great. Awesome run mate 🙌

Anthopants never fails.

This commentary is really good.

Way to go Antho! Nice WR!

that concentration , great run mate

Many fond memories playing this growing up! Wish they'd add somebody from Streets into Tekken7.. Pumped for SoR4 tho 🙌🏻

This game is my childhood! 😄 I love that this run gets some love!

Excellent performance. Fantastic commentary. Thank you.

Loved how Anthopants went for an actual World Record run (that he actually pulled it off), I felt he was fully sure of doing it, one of my favorite Genesis/Mega Drive games of all time, I honestly love the Genesis library overall despite having the experience of playing the games on an actual (model 2) hardware very late (since around December 2012 with a repro-cart of the EUR "fixed" version of Mega Man Wily Wars).

Hell yeah! Awesome run!

Fantastic game-play Antho, I think you have appeared at similar charity speed-run marathons before already(not entirely sure)as I remember back, but this one was much more impressive than your previous run and your were more confident and concentrated, so well done! Probably no-one has beaten this record since then have they??? 😊 😊

sweet memories. thank you for the run

Absolutely incredible!

It’s a shame the high score stops at 999,999 because I would love to know what he actually would have gotten. Amazing run!

I have always loved the soundtrack to this game, every single song is a fuckin banger especially considering when it came out. Never has FM synth sounded this good. The song when you fight Shiva is fucking incredible, especially in stereo. It's too bad later Genesis models didn't have proper stereo separation because it makes that track so much better. YM2612 FOREVER!

Your skills are phenomenal!

14:45 This stage is an amusement park So this stage is just the alien part of the amusement park

One of the best runs in gdq.

A world record in a marathon! Cool :D congratz Anthopants

best game ever

What a fucking unit. Great job, Antho!

that music though

Well played! Great game

Amazing run! Great job!

That Stage 8 music!

IMPRESSIVE

This game is too good

3:33 I didn't know Junkrat had a cameo.

That was sick mate 👌

AND THAT'S WORLD RECORD! NICE!

Stage 4 best track in the game.Rarely see good synthesized songs in the early 90's fighting games.

Stage 7 elevator... Yep. The place me and my brother lost the first time we played on Mania. Hahaha

The Soundtracks in this game is one of the best!!!!!!!!

SoR2 = Best soundtrack in video game history!

Never seen anyone take down Shiva so fast!

Awesome!

I used to do exactly the same! Without Max's slide kick spam, it would be a bit of a different story. I do prefer Axel with his, Grand Upper spamming though. 👍

Really impressive, I thought was good on that game but...outstanding.

Fuck yeah.

Hi all, Just curious. What console was this played on?

Is mania really really hard I never played on mania

I thought the creepy Geiger portion of the game was you inside a haunted house/area of sorts. You do go to various locales in that amusement Park.

SourPls x1000

Always bet on max.

My name is Donovan can't believe I'm in this game😂😂😂

I GREW UP PLAYING THIS ON THE GENESIS .NOW IM AT MY DESK TOP , WATCHING SOME ONE PLAY IT , ANOTHER PERSON COMMENTATING , PEOPLE SENDING IN DONATIONS ,SPONSORED BY RED BULL ,WATCHING THE REPLAY ON YOU TUBE AT 3 AM !!! LIKE WTF!!

Nice

The memories of this game on the Genesis. 😃😃😃😃

Never knew some of the enemies in SOR2 were references of HNK characters.

how did he not damage by enemies when they grab and throw you and land without taking anydamage at all ?

👍👍👍👍

He should of just fought the Jets in stage 6 there's no problem

Ni siquiera lo esta intentando es natural su run
