Was so glad to hear Charge Kick get the praise it deserves. Everyone I've ever talked to says it's "useless" or "lame", and I've seen it and charge man in dozens of "worst mega man weapons/bosses" lists, so it's just so refreshing to finally hear someone sing its praises.

[@silverflight01]

It saved me from death multiple times, especially in boss fights

[@Baronhaynes]

Note: This run is a 35:23, not a 37:14. After some layout difficulties early in the run, the timer was reset almost 2 minutes ahead of where it should have been.

[@SoraHjort]

That poor timer.

[@mittensfastpaw]

I love that Gravity and Star are the two starting stages! As a kid getting this game they were the first stages I powered through! Wonderful run and a fun series!

[@MMuraseofSandvich]

This is such a fun game, because speedrunners can abuse the Super Arrow, and muppets like me can farm E-tanks on Napalm Man's stage even after you've beaten Napalm Man. That's like the main reason I was able to even beat this game, and it's the only Mega Man/Rockman game I've ever beaten.

[@TheUltimateGamer07]

The time of the run was more like 35:24. But yeah, it looks like the timer conked out during Star Man's stage.

[@DFloyd84]

The timer got messed up when it went into space.

[@snuffysam]

Well, Einstein said that that time moves differently in lower gravity… so this just proves it

[@DarkTerrex]

The real time for this run is 35:23, the timer messed up and they tried their best to guess where to put it at.
Shoutouts to this being done in 2012 and to Final Fantasy VIII part 2! The layout blitzed and so did the timer, unfortunately, but it was entertaining to say the least.

[@MissAshley42]

Nice run! Today I learned that Stone Man is a happy boi. :D

[@drbuni]

Great run! Mega Man runs are always fun to watch at GDQ.

[@chrusader5134]

_Mega Man 5_ is underrated imo.
Great run 👍.

[@drfeelgood935487]

Mega Man 5 is a solid game, not the best in the series but a solid choice

[@MissAshley42]

The Mega Buster's big hitbox makes it great for newcomers.

[@28Pluto]

The music is also overlooked. Some great MegaMan songs here.

[@TwistedBananaProductions]

9:04 Amazing music sync!

[@RaitoADV]

9:04 LOL the music sync

[@Silentnarcotic]

What happened to the timer??

[@frurryhalle]

looks like someone messed up and didnt call to restart the run

[@PatrickGann]

Timer and bottom bar are busted! SGDQ 2012?! Unknown players, FFVIII Pt2? Something went horribly wrong.

[@LeGreatGaston]

From the looks of it, a glitch or accident cleared the game info and the timer mid run, it happens from time to time with marathons

[@SOSDynamikz213]

WE BACK OUTSIIIDEE!!! LETS GOOO!!!!

[@dysartes]

Birb trumps mad scientist...

[@MissAshley42]

He's a very good birb (in this game).

[@crithon]

great run

[@edenpenko1419]

Timer u ok?

[@itsybutsy]

I wish I could play through star man first
