Absolute masterclass in commentating. I felt like I could understand what was happening without having ever followed KH2 speed runs. I need these guys to commentate every speed run please
The magic about KH speedruns is no matter how many times I watch it, I learn something new. Such a wonderful community, such great runners and amazing commentators. I really couldn't ask for more
The first try Lingering Will was absolutely jaw dropping, what a monstrously talented runner. So glad such a wonderful person & streamer got the opportunity to showcase this game and run
Honestly, Spike Vegeta was the highlight of this run (other than the mechanics displayed). His play-by-play commentary was top tier. More of that, pls.
Thank you for the run, and thank you GDQ for another great year! Special thanks at 3:42:20 - Sent's mom, Sent's mom's lamp, and the marble with the screaming man inside.
Thank you GDQ for another fantastic week of excellent gaming. Ninten's fantastic run here was a great capstone to another successful charity event. Worry not, we'll surely get Atlantica next time...
42:10 I've done about 2 Level 1 playthroughs of this game an I can confirm this is one of the hardest parts of the run in the early game, especially the Lancers in phase 2. Pure pain
What a great run Ninten you made and otherwise very difficult lvl1 critical run look easy!! Always love the great commentary of SpikeVegeta and Jhobz. (Hope I spelt everyones name right!)
Other comments have said it: the commentary on this run is truly so good, enthusiastic, and informative. We we're lucky to end the event with such a quality run and TV quality spectation (Microsoft spectation is word, look it up) from Spike Vegeta and Jhobz. There's nothing I could say at this point that hasn't already been said but nonetheless this deserves to have more love poured on it
i just cant ever touch lvl 1 critical in every kh games so its nice to see whenever a runner can shred the game like nothing.. good job ninten, what a run.. also not forget the awesome commentary by JHobz & SpikeVegeta who made me feel like i'm watching a sport event instead of s speedrun..
I thought it was pretty hype that the Sephiroth fight was met, despite the 40k donation by Twitch NOT being added to the incentive. Everyone in chat was freaking out that it wasn't added, so they did it themselves!
ninten made this look easy. i did a level 1 run and it was abysmal. it was so hard to get through a lot of the fights like hades escape and the 1000 heartless. it's so easy to die everywhere and it's easy to use all of your resources too early and die the next instance. the tech that he demonstrates as well takes a bit of practice to get consistent. good run all around.
I just want to point out that the commentators are absolutely magnificent. Definitely on par with sports casters or commentators. They're commentary makes the video 10 times better than it already is. Fantastic
Story time; When I was younger, I had a hard time with Final Xemnas, because I didn't understand much of the game (played on beginner mode), and I didn't notice that you could smash X during the final move (all the laser beam stuff) to block the incoming damage. I thought I had to have enough health to survive it.
I legit never thought of the magnet into trinity combo. That sounds busted even for this game. Kinda reminds me of graviza into dark aura or dark splicer combo in dream drop distance I would use a lot XD
23:00 This is one of the things I sorely missed from KH3 was fighting with some of my favorite FF characters (or any FF characters in the game, period).
57:42 I think it makes a bit of sense. This person probably just donates to the charity whenever GDQ comes on but doesn't actually watch it. I've done that for charity streams that I couldn't make it to before.

all the speedrunner watchers are loving ya
Rewatching this 3 months later and realizing just how amazing the commentators were enticing the incentive and managing to reach the goal.
You know what the people want. You timestamped the sephiroth fight.
my favorite game with a great runner
I just love the Minnie Mouse Push. Every time I watch a KH2 speedrun, still my favorite moments.
Thank you for the run, and thank you GDQ for another great year!
Special thanks at 3:42:20 - Sent's mom, Sent's mom's lamp, and the marble with the screaming man inside.
I’ve been missing the KH speed runners 🙏
Spike Vegetable is absolutely the BEST commentator in GDQ history. Hobz is a perfect counterpart to his energy too. So knowledgable, these guys!
So happy my donation got read! What a great run and another amazing GDQ!
I was so happy somebody came in with that donation after his practise run!
Thanks gdq. Tons of fun, glad we got so much to enjoy from all the different runners. Thanks for all the hard work!!!
I'd watch spike commentate paint drying ngl, dude is such a legend, him and hobz. They bring such amazing energy to everything they're a part of
One of the best things about the kh runs at gdq: a great runner and the awesome commentary by Spikevegeta and JHobz ❤️
Absolutely great gameplay from Ninten and fantastic commentary from both Hobz and Spike
Respect to all these speedrunners
The commentary on this run is top tier
YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! More KH2 Crit runs on GDQ, you love to see it!
Thank you GDQ for another fantastic week of excellent gaming. Ninten's fantastic run here was a great capstone to another successful charity event. Worry not, we'll surely get Atlantica next time...

nothing better than watching a kh speedrun commentated by spike tbh
the menuing in this is absolutely amazing
That Terra fight tho. Perfection. Almost perfect on Sephie.
What a great run Ninten you made and otherwise very difficult lvl1 critical run look easy!! Always love the great commentary of SpikeVegeta and Jhobz. (Hope I spelt everyones name right!)

Oh damn. My boy ninten. Keep on keepin on brother.
SpikeVegeta on any game for commentary is a treat. He has charisma that could make watching grass grow or paint dry electrifying.
I just want to thank whoever did the thumbnails for these videos, your are a real mvp. So much easier to find the runs i want to.
KH boys always know how to make a show. Great run
SpikeVageta is the greatest hype man in history
i just cant ever touch lvl 1 critical in every kh games so its nice to see whenever a runner can shred the game like nothing.. good job ninten, what a run.. also not forget the awesome commentary by JHobz & SpikeVegeta who made me feel like i'm watching a sport event instead of s speedrun..
Incredible game, fantastic runner, informational and charismatic commentary. What more could you want from a GDQ run?
Sick run Ninten, as always! You're a legend.
Actually shocked at how FAST the incentive bar was going after the commentators mentioned Lingering Will
Good stuff,great speedrun, good job Ninten!
Fav run this year!!!
Yooo Ninten doing a GDQ Speedrun is so hype!
I have to say there's something about the runners introduction while dearly beloved is playing on in the background that's just perfect.
SpikeVegeta is the GOAT commentator!! Amazing run!!
that fire into trinity finish was definitely swag omg
Ninten absolutely killed it, that was fucking wild. 10/10 GDQ run
I adore KH speedruns specifically because I'm almost guaranteed to get some Spike and JHobz
Sgdq was amazing this year
Watching this makes me realize how terrible I really am. And I thought I was ok at this game
Sameeee lmfao
It really makes me want to try a lvl 1 proud mode run lol.
Welcome to speedrunning!
I don’t even want to attempt anything but normal mode
Great run and great runner. Amazing commentary. It still baffles me they were able to design the game around not leveling up.
Always love KH, hopefully next time we can get a rando run!
loved this run :] level 1 crit terra was amazing to watch
Great SGDQ this year! I hope with the upcoming potentially in person AGDQ that they keep some options for foreign streamers to participate.
I thought it was pretty hype that the Sephiroth fight was met, despite the 40k donation by Twitch NOT being added to the incentive. Everyone in chat was freaking out that it wasn't added, so they did it themselves!
spike went on a play by play description of each fight gotta give him props
That fight against the pirates on the ship is intense
spike is my favourite part of every gdq
Gonna end up watching this a lot. Want to learn this speed run!
This guy beat KH2 in less time than it took me to get through the prologue on my first casual run years ago 😂
"Sitting there with 869, but not so nice yet" ... we love you Spike

The most anime looking run ever, this is amazing!
Absolutely amazing ❤️
I meant to watch this when it aired but it ended up being very late for me and I had work the next day. :(
Story time; When I was younger, I had a hard time with Final Xemnas, because I didn't understand much of the game (played on beginner mode), and I didn't notice that you could smash X during the final move (all the laser beam stuff) to block the incoming damage.

I'm a simple man. I hear SpikedVegeta, I watch
Such a beautiful run
so nice to see ninten again
First time my donation message was read, but I kind of made my self sad with it lol.
Amazing playing always putting me on game
I'm now convinced the Final Fantasy fights in Hollow Bastion were auditions to replace Goofy in Sora's party.
No one said Treasure Planet for their favorite Disney movie? For shame.
Lmao when I was younger, I always wondered what the Warp function in the overworld could be useful for and now I get it lol nice move, Square
Shoutout to the marble with the screaming man in it
A masterful display
YOOO WHEN DID NINTEN GET INTO GDQ
he was the finale last year!
spikevegeta is an amazing commentator
I love the headset, ninten XD
Great run! Good job guys
Saving the best for last, hell yeah
👀 I don't mean to advertise but the kingdom hearts all-in-one is $30 on PSN until 7/22
Great, now I need to take out a loan to buy a PS5 so I can make use of this deal! 8D

Ninten whats your favorite Disney movie
Ninten: Mine is Shrek...
Dreamworks: Am I joke to you?
😂😂😂
Lets GOOOOO
Glad to see him using duck Flare on lingering will. I have abused that strategy
I legit never thought of the magnet into trinity combo. That sounds busted even for this game. Kinda reminds me of graviza into dark aura or dark splicer combo in dream drop distance I would use a lot XD
A Ninten run with Spike on the "couch"? This can only be a great run.
23:00 This is one of the things I sorely missed from KH3 was fighting with some of my favorite FF characters (or any FF characters in the game, period).
To be fair, Xemnas' dragon form does look like a modern YGO monster...
That's cool. I have really similar headphones
Gummi missions are maybe the best thing about KH!
3:42:24 shoutouts to the marble with the screaming man inside
spike!! yooo!!
Pride lands💔
Sitting in a car for 4 hours, this was fun to watch. The carbon dioxide is starting to catch up with me though.
57:42 I think it makes a bit of sense. This person probably just donates to the charity whenever GDQ comes on but doesn't actually watch it. I've done that for charity streams that I couldn't make it to before.
I WAS HERE :D
All these favorite Disney movies, but no Atlantis : The Lost Empire? C'mon guys. That is definitely the best Disney movie . . .
Ggz ninten 😁
This was tons o ffun!
Amazing speedrun, I love kH2Fm runs!
Also, I'm curious... what are the headphones he's wearing, they are awesome! OwO
