Speedrunner Mario VS Super Sonic (Fight scene from the 2.76M Sub Special) - SOMETHING VERSUS 🤼‍♂️ 

In reality, Mario is a star child, a very strong being in general, and knowing his feats, its not too surprising or too much of a long shot to say Mario would at least hold his own for a little against Super Sonic, now combine whatever 64 did to him, and you’ve got an accurate fight.

All of that cuz Nintendo forgot to cap mario's negative speed in 1995. Awesome!

Forget death battle, it’s all about that “Something Versus”

It’s all fun and games until you realize that technically all possible theories are canon because of parallel universes

Tabuu: *dies again* Everyone: it’s even funnier the second time!

“To answer that, we need to talk about Parallel universes.” “Parallel universes” Its all coming together

2:09 those 3 frames at the end of Sonic's time jump where the Speed Demon turns and grins at him are so creepy I love it

Fun fact: you can play this video at any speed and the fight is still timed perfectly XD, making this battle truly defy time

I like how Mario had like 20 different voice clips and all we get of sonic is "chilli dogs"

I just realized why Mario speaks in japanese Because hes speedrunning and the japanese text is faster

Has anyone else noticed that at the start of the fight, Mario's speed doesn't break the scanners but Sonic's does? Maybe Sonic actually was faster than Mario, but Mario's vast knowledge of time jumps and parallel universes gave him the advantage, after all, the whole point of a speedrun is to try the same run over and over until you perfect it, I'm willing to bet when Mario said he'd already speedran through several worlds during the fight, he actually lost in some of those worlds.

Another comment that I can no longer find brought up this possible theory. This is not my theory, I am simply quoting the original that seems to have vanished. The theory was based upon the concept that Sonic was aware he was unable to win by himself, and with his speed alone. The theory implied that Sonic made the time jump not to take Mario by surprise, but to allow Luigi and Kirby to catch up to them and take out Mario. This is a neat little theory I thought I'd bring back up after being unable to find the original source again.

"Chilidogs" - Sun Tzu, the Art of War

I think i understood the parallel universes sheningan with speedrunner mario. During something versus fox vs speedrunner mario there was that time were 4 mario were fighting fox, and i think that what happened here while one mario gor hit by sonic another one from a parallel universe stopped him and other were already gone on other world explaining the line "i already speedran in this fight alone through countless world. In short will we were watching mario beating sonic he was already in other game speedrunning then when he got arrested by rosalina other mario were still doing there stuff explain why it's the end of the speed demon yet not the end of him for them if they want to get ride of the speed demon they have to defeat every single parallel universe mario which is almost impossible since his always few parallel dimension ahead of them

The fact TM still hearts *AND* pins occasional comments from older videos makes my respect for him as a content creator grow even more. Man's a legend

2:11 That laugh gives me chills every time I watch it. Your opponent is so insanely fast that they can catch you time-leaping and intercept, yet the action of laughing at the attempt you made is the one time they'll slow to a stop like a tape winding down.

When sonic said “Chili dogs” I felt that on an emotional level

“Oh a stand-alone version of the one fight, that’s coo...” *PARALLEL UNIVERSES* “Aww shoot, here we go again”

2:52 Fun fact, Sonic can go fast indefinitely too, however unlike Mario, he requires a downhill slope, hence why he was able to keep up at first, however with every time he touches the ground not in a rolling position his speed cap slowly catches up to him.

3:11 No one seems to be talking about the frickin *TIMELINE SPLIT* that just happened. Who knows what terminal montage could be planning to do with that universe.

Sonic: *throws a barrage of punches* Mario: *cracks head* THAT'S A SPICY MEATBALL

_turns neck 180 degrees_ “THATS A SPICY MEAT-A-BALL”

That time jump will forever be one of the coolest scenes in media history. The music amplifies the intensity.

Am I the only one who loves how sonic is all gold and not just his blue replaced? It makes more sense because it's all his fur and quills, just different colors. I love this super sonic lol.

You know, I do appreciate how Mario's finishing move is his funny aerial.

"Parallel Universes." Something tells me this isn't the end of Speedrunner Mario 🥴

1:34 predicted phantom rush from Sonic Frontiers

hold on, i just realized, sonic accidentally created another gamegenie when he time jumped. its basically confirmed during the post credits scene, since this version of mario/gamegenie can act independently of the one in the timeline the videos have been following. if this is actually true, that means every instance of time travel with mario in that timeline basically creates a new gamegenie, which in turn means that there is essentially an infinite amount of gamegenies. i assume with the use of savestates, since he is a TAS demon, he can time travel himself. this means that he can just keep making copies of himself. before i realized this, i thought when he said "its not your end for me" at the end of the original video he meant only the three copies he used in the fight with fox. now i believe it means that there will never be an end to him. this series is wack and i love it.

“Your speed is only temporary, mine builds up for eternity.” Cause in SM64 BLJ can go on forever LOL clever

Every hero got a one liner; Mario: It's a me Mario Fox: Heyaa Sonic: Chili dog

(note this is a joke) If you look closely, just when Chili Dogs starts his time jump, Mario’s eyes move just the tiniest bit, implying his ability to in some way resist time jumps from other people.

I mean, if Sonic is able to put up this kind of fight, we better hope he never gets possessed by the speed demon. Might be unstoppable.

We need speedrun Link, man is so obscure, even Mario can't predict him.

I edited this comment so you have no clue why this has 4k likes :) IM BRINGIN IT BACK FOR THE NEW YEAR I AM 3 MONTHS LATE. Og comment: "Remember when we made our stuffed animals fight? This is what it felt like."

Sonic’s introduction was great, because we’ve seen how Mario is basically unstoppable so seeing something able to take him by surprise, even if for only a minute, is quite adrenaline inducing

I love how even in the end the fastest thing in every existence stood no chance against J e s u s C h r i s t

The sheer thought of someone staring you down and blocking your attack that they didn't before you literally reversed time is terrifying.

This feels like watching the finale of an anime you’ve never seen before.

That villain laugh at 2:11 is just so cool both acting and animation-wise

Even to this day,this scene was still stick to my brain on how a heck of a move mario did to finish sonic off. And also kudos to that Va of speed demon mario.

was sonic ever really fighting him? Or was Mario toying around with the hedgehog the whole time?

First.

1:49 there should be no reason for that rewind to look so epic 😭✊🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

To this day this remains one of the most legendary animated fights I’ve ever seen.

People: “the internet is a dangerous place” The internet:

Mario: FINALLY A WORTY OPPONENT Sonic: *Chilidogs*

I just realized whenever there's a Mario close up, the M on his hat is the DBZ Majin symbol. Perfect~

1:20 I LOVE THIS BECAUSE Y'KNOW Warpstars have arbitrary movement speeds! Kirby can just *follow* anyone at any speed they want. It's such a lovely undercutting of the power other people fight over and kirby literally shits something out that dwarfs even the speed demom's comprehension. Its like vegeta vs frieza on earth and whis is just sippin tea

“Finally a worth opponent,our battle will be legend” “Chilly dogs” *speech 100*

"Your speed is temporary, mine builds up for eternity." - Speedrunner Mario

I can't be the only one who wants a full like, 10 minute battle like this. Maybe for the next episode of Something Versus!

Now here’s something interesting: this video is the first time we actually get to see time jumps in action, and it implicates a few things that could become really important later. 1- Time is non-linear, in that jumping creates multiple parallel universes. 2- Each continues after the point of the jump and arrival. And the two most important parts: 3- When you jump backwards, you replace the version of you at the point of arrival. 4- Other entities are not replaced, they continue to exist in their own universes. This means that, when Super Sonic jumped, he left behind an extra universe with another Speed Demon Mario. In other words, he duplicated the Game Genie. This can only mean one thing- *When you time jump, you lose.* The Game Genie is aware of parallel universes, and seems to have knowledge about them at all times. He can also move so fast that his position overflows within one universe, making him appear to be in different places at once and harder to track, or straight up move between them. You would need to limit that in any way possible in order to have a chance of beating him. What probably happened is that he _goaded_ Super Sonic into jumping in order to duplicate himself and stop the fight before it began. This means that he is practically unstoppable. The only way to slow him would be to make him jump, and be aware of the other universes he’s created. But that might just be the ticket- he would jump. As shown in the Melee Fox vs. Mario video, he is arrogant and cocky, willing to jump to any number of universes just so he can beat you into the ground more. But if you can trick him into moving backwards instead of sideways, you could maybe dwindle his forces. Keep doing it, and you just might be able to localize him enough to fully contain. That could be the only way to defeat him.

When you realize this video happen because some guy in the 90’s figured out how to do a backwards long jump in Super Mario 64.

TOP 1000 EPIC ANIME BATTLES: Number 1:

Y'know I don't think anybody has mentioned how excellently TM choreographed this fight. Sonic doing a time jump was so cool and out of no where, you're impressed by it, and then mario just CATCHES it, that laugh is so chilling, it mocks both sonic AND the viewer for thinking it had a chance of working. It's genius. Seriously. So good. You're on your way to be the best in the biz dude I'm telling you now

It’s surprising that Chillidogs was able to actually be some sort of match with Wahoo with only the chaos emeralds. Just imagine what he could do if he had Sonic 3 & Knuckles’ super emeralds in hand

"Finally a worthy opponent, our battle shall be legendary!" "Chillidoggs" I love that scene

Everyone: The universe is gonna end due to an uncontrollable speed demon Kirbo: POYO

For such a simple looking artstyle, it's always effective at showing emotion on faces. The jaw drops, the contrast in detail for characters, and then you have the fights themselves that just really keep you watching closely. Rewatched this fight before going to work today.

Someone mentioned this in the comments of the original, but I feel it’s important to include here. Sonic’s time jump made Mario just 1 parallel universe slower. To Speedrunner Mario, the difference seemed trivial, but it was just enough for Luigi and Kirbo to catch up and exorcize the Speed Demon.

“That’s a spicy meat-a-ball!” -Famous words said before only one time jump.

“Your speed is only temporary. Mine builds for eternity.” I don’t know why I find that line so cool.

Sonic: you’re too slow Speedrunner mario: you’ve been attacking a after image the whole time

"Luigi, we have to!" *Sanic music just starts playing* Chilidogs: "Allow me"

I love how Mario is portrayed like DIO and Sonic is just the 90's cartoon version of himself.

1:10 Can we just take a minute to appreciate that even Fox, who actually came damn close to beating TAS Mario in their duel, is shocked by the speed of the combat? Just how much faster must Mario have gotten between the two fights?

I like how Luigi is pretty freaked out but for Kirby this is just two toddlers yelling at each other

2:42 NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT HOW CLEAN THIS PART IS AND HOW ABSURDLY STRONG SPEEDRUNNER MARIO IS

If sonic can go back in time, does that mean that there are timelines where he won? Something to think about.

When Super Sonic goes back in time, only for Speedrunner Mario to catch him, that was the equivalent of your action figure using its ultimate move, then your friend just goes "no u".

Mario makes speedrunning sound scary

I realize only now that the video is 3:16 miniutes long. Thats the same as 2:76 minutes, and 2.76 was the subscriber special. Genius

1:15 I love how Meta Knight is just standing there, un-phased, even though the very fabric of the universe is at risk. He's already achieved his cheapest form, so he's probably just waiting for this to blow over and return to Smash Ultimate.

"Your speed is only temporary, mine builds for eternity hits." hits different.

In reality we can all agree that Sonic’s debug mode wins here.

You know with all these parallel universes that means theres gotta be one where the speed demon got to sonic in time that thought terrifies me

It’s too hard to tell whether TerminalMontage is hearting the theory comments to give us hints or he’s hearting them just to get us excited and we’re actually wrong

"Who is your Favorite Nintendo Characater?" "Mario" "Oh, Cool" "No, not that kind-"

“You’re beginning to bore me” I would be terrified if someone said that to me at my full power

The fight scenes scenes are just as good, if not better than many, much larger studios can produce. Amazing job!

I have found a "strategy": The more simple the artstyle is, the smoother the animation.

The personas he’s given to these characters is amazing. They all feel personable in their own weird ways.

I think this is one of the greatest fights I've ever seen, with an incredible display of strength, speed, and endurance for both of these characters. The soundtrack for the battle also played a major role in showing off the power of the encounter. TerminalMontage, you've done it this time :)

I can only imagine what it'll be like when you get Super Mario Land 2.

Mario: Parallel Universes Me: *Remembers the third ending to something about super metroid*

The saga continues

genuinely impressed at some of the fight choreography here, you're seriously talented

The only complaint i could have is that it didn't last longer, this has to be the best fight scene in RU-vid history.

Showed it to my friend who’s super into Dragon Ball, and he said “Why is the animation better than Dragon Ball Super?” Awesome work!

I still can’t get over how Tabuu gets done in so easily, such a comically simple death.

why is the animation in this silly fight so damn clean

I truly wish this could be a series of dozens of fights using hilarious references and speedrun strats and memes...

Can we talk about how unironically *chilling* it was when the battle reversed, the attack that previously caught Mario off guard was coming-that we KNEW was a solid hit before, and then the fucker turns his head and *SMILES* like a (speed)demon! Seriously, this is some high-quality anime choreography right here.

My understanding of this is that Sonic's plan was to go back at the start of the fight to surprise-attack Mario with all his power in that first attack (during the fight he wasn't at 100% apparently). The twist is that Mario was toying with him all along, and he was more than ready for that time-jump, and countless ones ahead according to him

Mario really just said time and space won't prevent you from me speed running these hands into your face

The part where Mario stops him dead in his tracks and laughed maniacally gives me straight chills. You created a truly epic battle

I can tell by some of those moves you watched dragon ball super you nerd, glad to see a fellow dbz fan. epico video.

"Whats your favorite anime fight?" "Its.... complicated."

This is the most accurate depiction of SuperSonics Powers I seen in fan-made work and even more accurate than in the games

Freaking every time I watch the part where Mario rewinds time, I get chills. 10/10
