OoT Commentary Notes

Blindfolded Ocarina of Time any% - ESA Commentary (Collapse Skip)
Blindfolded Ocarina of Time any% - Commentary Notes
I will divide this document into multiple sections that represent usual splits in the run, as well as general information about the whole game and the blindfolded aspect of it.
Feel free to just do the commentary how you feel like, I think with your game knowledge it will be totally fine to just go with the flow and have fun. It's not necessary to include all the information here, I just thought it could be a guideline if you want some more details on some sections etc. Do as you see fit best! :) If there are any questions I am always available to answer them too!
Information:
Current PB: BLINDFOLDED Speedrun: Ocarina of Time - any% in 30 minutes (World First Collapse Skip) - YouTube 30:35 , world first completion of any% with collapse skip. I will likely beat this still during the derust/practice in the next few days.
 
History: I routed any% blindfolded for the first time in 2020, and finished the world first run just over 1 hour. I pushed the times down a bit and then CrystalSaver and HyrulianKnight came and improved the route a bit and grinded. The current WR by Saver is a 26:40 (without Collapse Skip but doing the normal escape sequence). We are unsure if we want to split collapse skip into a separate category or not, but since it is super difficult and only saves a tiny bit of time total we might keep it together. Anyways since collapse skip I am the only runner atm. 
Movement: most of the setups and movement are done with Ztarget cam, all the roll options for angles and consistent jump distances are a blessing for blindfolded.
The route varies quite a bit from the visual one as we cannot get a bottle reliably via GIM at this point while blindfolded. We also cannot do Kakariko bottle as the chickens are too random, hence we need to fish and do the big detour through the entire land to get ruto’s letter bottle :)
//I wrote this commentary for a very general audience without background knowledge once, I will try to put some more speedrun related facts in there though, hope its okay! Though maybe its not a bad idea for ESA as well to explain more basic stuff ^^) 
Splits: 
ForestEscape:
The very first thing we need to do is to get our sword. In blindfolded, we use many techniques to navigate through the world. Most importantly as you can instantly see here, we count steps, backflips and sideflips to keep track of where we are. Like this we can safely make our way to the first chest with the sword. The rock in this maze is on a cycle, so we actually need to be extremely fast in our inputs in this part. 
The next step is to escape out of the forest. In a normal playthrough, you would get the shield now and go into the first dungeon, but we need some more items in order to perform our speedrun glitches. Thats is why we go to the lost woods. 
Here, we will see our first glitch of the run called Navi Dive. There is a way to get out of the forest into Zoras River, but you would usually need a scale first in order to be able to dive deeper. We position ourselves in a very specific spot on this monument and then cancel our jumpslash with the navi textbox. That will recoil us underwater and since navi is speaking to us, we get pushed to the bottom of the water right next to the entry. We can then cancel the text and just swim through the loading zone to escape the forest.
Fishing:
Now we need to do lots of overworld movement. Our goal is to get to Lake Hylia to get our next important item: The golden scale! In Zora’s River, we collect a bunch of Rupees on the way since we will need money to go fishing and to buy some items later on. We mostly get carried by the river here, so not much to worry about. We count the swims of Link for the movement.
In Hyrule Field, we have a lot of time to talk because there is a long section of walking. (also good time for donations). Now you might have noticed that Link is always walking backwards. That is because the targeted backwalk is actually the fastest movement option of Link. In blindfolded we want to setup a good angle and then just backwalk all the way to our destination. We need to approach the entrance to Lake Hylia from the side, as there is an owl waiting that usually will talk to us for a long time. We take the ladder at the end and just skip the owl with this particular movement though. (fun fact: its possible to blindfolded WESS this entire section, but when I routed this I forgot that we dont have the shield at this point for a necessary crouch stab setup…)
In Lake Hylia, we just go straight to the Fishing Pond. There we can win the gold scale by fishing the biggest fish. But originally, you would only get a heartpiece right? That is correct, but we will use a glitch that will get us the adult reward for fishing with child link! I will talk about it later. Fishing in general is one of the most random parts of the run though and in terms of marathons the absolute scariest. The fish can decide to just not bite, but in that case you can just throw your fishing rod again. If the fish bites and then escapes, which is totally random, you have to exit the pond and retry. In PB attempts it's an instant reset, but for marathons I need to learn like 500 more backup setups only for that stupid fish. We also only have 60 rupees so 3 tries, then it's an absolute disaster. 
We set up some specific position and then fish, and after everything worked well, we use another fish to locate our camera position and then continue with the scale glitch.
To activate the glitch to obtain the gold scale, we have to catch the fish and then walk into the water while holding Z. We then need to navigate and talk to the shopkeeper without pressing any other buttons. And tada, we get the gold scale!  
Next with the gold scale, we can get the bottle that lays in Lake Hylia with Rutos Letter. This letter we will have to bring to the Zora King in order to obtain an empty bottle.
Zoras Domain: 
First of all there is a bit of farming: We use the shop reloading of the room to farm a total of 15 rupees and 15 deku nuts, as well as one Deku Stick (might change amounts for marathon safety). 
Then we walk up to the King and get the bottle after another long Mweep cutscene. Good donation time :) 
From here, we need to go back down to collect a fish into our empty bottle. Trust me, it will be a very important fish. After we get the fish, we restart the console. Sometimes its very difficult to catch the fish as it is somewhat RNG dependent, but after a while it should work out.
Deku Tree: 
When we reopen the file, we spawn again at our house in the forest. With our collected rupees, we finally go to the shop and buy our shield. From here we follow the normal route and go to the first dungeon. On the way, we farm 2 (or 4 in marathon settings) more Deku Sticks from enemies. 
The first task inside this dungeon is to break the web on the floor. There has been a new trick recently called “Quick Putaway” which lets you destroy the web instantly, but it is a one -frame trick, so for a marathon I will only try this once but then usually take the normal route you can see here. If we succeed in the QPA (Quick Putaway), we instantly go down to b1 with a megasidehop from the enemy and defeat ghoma first. Else, we are going to go up the tree, grab the slingshot which is needed for the new collapse skip, and then climb up the tree the normal way to break the web via falldamage like in a casual playthrough.
We drop onto the web and quickly set up our position again with the ladder, because now comes a really big and cool skip: the megasidehop b1 skip. We use one of the enemies here to do a megasidehop, which is basically a damage recoil with our shield followed by a sidehop. It is pretty precise, but we have a good audio cue for this. As you can see, we fly all the way onto the upper platform and skip most of the dungeon with this. Now we need fire for the second web. 
For this, you usually would need to push the block, but with some precise angles, you can use a trick and jumpslash precisely after a backflip to light your torch, we use it to open the web and prepare for the scrubs.
The scrubs are fairly easy, we just shoot their deku nuts back at them. We need to damage ourselves here to 0.5 hearts. At the end we need to be quick the talk to the last scrub, otherwise he escapes and blindfolded, we dont know where he goes.
It is time for the first boss of the game: Ghoma! And again, we need to use two glitches here!
After entering the room, you notice that I do a jumpslash with my stick. We will use a glitch called power crouchstab in this fight, because when Link shields and stabs with his sword, it actually take the attack value of the last attack and not of the sword. And a jumpslash with the stick does a LOT of damage. We use 2 Deku nuts and 2 crouch stabs into Ghomas eye to stunlock it, then we do a final jumpslash to kill him off. Now it is very important how we were positioned because we actually at the same time did a second trick. Did you notice that I set up my health to exactly 0.5 hearts? Well the last jumpslash actually killed me and the boss at the same time. Double Kill! This allows us to respawn at the top of the dungeon with the boss room open, because the wall closes usually after you defeat him and you cannot go back otherwise. This will be very important for the next glitch.
WrongWarp:
Now comes the most complicated part of the run. With all the items we have collected so far, we go back to the boss room using one more megasidehop. Then we enter the boss room again. Okay now it will be complicated and many glitches will be involved. From entering the boss door, we set up a very specific spot and do a very specific setup, I take my fish out, drop it on the floor and then catch it again. This is for a glitch called “Ocarina Items”. This allows us to trigger the blue warp but also cancel out of the cutscene because we basically, we play Ocarina with our sword. You can see, the cutscene starts playing and from then we need to do a frame perfect setup with two deku nuts and precise input to get back to the door. (Fun fact: I also pseudo-beatcount this with the SM64 slider music like in many of my other speedruns^^) Now when we enter….
We end up at Ganons Castle, the very end of the game! What we did earlier is called “Wrong Warp”, basically we use a broken cutscene pointer in the games memory to warp to a different are than intended. 
Collapse Skip:
Now comes one of the hardest part of the run:
We need to do a new collapse skip setup, which requires 4-5 back to back frame perfect inputs. How is that possible visually, or even blindfolded? The answer is pausebuffering. You can pause and unpause in OoT and buffer inputs to be executed right afterwards, but that does not make things 100% easier. For blindfolded, all we have to work with is audio cues. Frame advancing during pauses is not very easy as you still need to frame perfectly pause again after 1f. I try to pseudo beatcount how long it takes until the first frame plays but yeah, its really difficult without visual cue. The good thing: 3 out of the 4-5 frame perfect pauses have a distinct audio cue (sword hitting the wall on the first frame). We can use that to confirm if we paused correctly. The problem is that the other pauses have ZERO indication because we need to frame advance one frame AFTER a sound cue. If everything works out, we should clip through the floor and be able to skip right to the end of the escape sequence. If we fail, I should be able to back up my position and simply retry again. We then just need to clear the final room and enter the final cutscenes. (Last time for donations)
Ganon: I will explain the last bossfight during this cutscene. It has 2 phases. 
In phase 1, we do not have our sword, but luckily, sticks and deku nuts are very strong as well. We attempt a quick kill loop with 2 nuts and 2 sticks that should kill him instantly. If that fails, we need to get our kokiri sword out and hope that we manage to beat him the normal way.
In Phase 2, we first need to find our sword and then jumpslash his face to stunlock him, and jumpslash a few more times to hit his tail. We need 5 hits. This is all very scary because one hit of Ganon means instant death, and we have to repeat the EVERYTHING from the beginning of the Wrong Warp lmao (yep I will literally cry if this happens in a marathon run, and yes it happened before on PB pacers. Its quite scary that I submitted this run for a marathon setting as its extremely unsafe with Ganon and Fishing. If everything goes to hell and I go close to over estimate I will just reload the fight in GZ or something, dont know really yet. 😅) 
After phase 2, its is basically over, all that is left to do is is do a final slash with the sword onto ganon. And that is it! We beat Ocarina of Time, while being blindfolded, in less than an hour! We have successfully saved Zelda from the evil, even though we kind of met her in the escape sequence for the first time.
__________________________________________________
THIS IS NOT IN THE ROUTE ANYMORE 
Tower Escape:
In this last part of the run, we have to escape from Ganons Tower in 3 minutes. But first we have to do another little glitch. A very easy one actually. We run off the Tower and die. Why, you ask? Well we are not supposed to be in the castle as a child. So when we die and reload the escape sequence, we suddenly have the Master Sword on the B button! And we need that for the upcoming Stalfos fight. But first we need to get down there through with some difficult movement. There are three main problems at the escape. 1. There are random rocks falling down that can mess up our position and damage us. 2. We only have 3 minutes which is not much, especially with blindfolded Stalfos. And last but not least, we are not allowed, by any means, to touch any rock on the ground that burns. If we by accident do so, and it can easily happen during the Stalfos fight because of RNG, we crash our Wii and have to repeat everything from before the Wrong Warp. In a Marathon Setting, I will probably grab another shield quickly from kakariko. With the Hylian Shield, you do not crash. 
Now the Stalfos room: This is the hardest and most random part of the entire run. The stalfos kill you with 2-3 hits and they can lead you to the burning rock. You have to hit them 3 times with a jump slash and if you dont kill both fast enough, they revive. That is why we need to use Deku Nuts to stun then, jumpslash and hope for a loop. That way we can quickly kill them but it is very random and difficult to pull off. The problem is, if we fail and die once, we have to retry it without deku nuts anymore because we only have 16 in the beginning. Or we have to again reset to before the wrong warp. So you really really want this to succeed first try. Fun fact: If we get damaged, we can easily heal ourselves with the previous glitch that we used to play ocarina with our sword. If we do the same glitch and “play” ocarina with out empty bottle that we have cloned, the game for some reason thinks that there is milk inside and heals you to full health.
After that, we only have a few more rooms and then the last big fight against ganon starts.

Ocarina of Time - Commentary [Japanese]
こんにちは、目隠しRTA走者のBubziaです！ よろしくお願いします！
今回は自分の初めてのゆっくり解説動画をお見せしたいと思います。
日本語はまだ勉強中なので、詳細とか説明とかが不明な場合は申し訳ありません!
ゲームの始まりにはかなり長いカットシーンがありますから、ちょっとゆっくり話す時間がありますよ。
じゃ、始めましょう!　タイマーがファイルセレクトを押す瞬間から始まります。 
今回は、「時のオカリナ - 目隠し any% Defeat Ganon」と言うカテゴリを見せます。
日本語でゴールは「ガノンを倒せ」ってことですよね。
テキストを一番早く送る方法は、名前が一文字だけにすることです。
「時のオカリナ」は1998年に発売されたN64の名作で、リンクと言う主人公としてプレイして、ゼルダ姫を救出する目的があります。
面白いことに、最近カテゴリの名前が変わりました。
any%は普通に、スタートからクレジットまでできるだけ早いカテゴリなんですよね。だけど2019年に新しいグリッチが発見されました。
そのグリッチを利用すれば、最初の森から10分いないにクレジットにワープすることができますので、今は「any%」と「ガノンを倒せ」を区別しています。
「Defeat Ganon」は大体昔のany%です。
基本的にいくつかのアイテムを収集し、最初のダンジョンから最後のボスのシーケンスにワープする必要があります。
今でも時のオカリナRTAの中で一番人気なカテゴリーかもしれません。
まあ、それは目隠しなしですけど。
そのカテゴリーの目隠しRTAは世界で初めて2020年に自分が成功しました。タイムは１じ10分ぐらいでした。
その後には新しいテクニックとかがたくさん発見されました。
最初は大丈夫だけど、100回見ればあまり楽しくなくなる。
そろそろカットシーンが終わります。すごく長いですよね。
RTA内でミスをして、ランをリセットする時、いつもこのカットシーンを見る必要があります。
最初は大丈夫だけど、100回見ればあまり楽しくなくなります。
見ると言いますけど、正しい言葉は聞くですね。
Splits: 
ExitForest:
やっと操作ができますね。
一番最初にやるべきことは、剣を手に入れることです。
目隠しをしている状態で、世界を移動するために色々なテクニックを使います。
最も重要なのは、ここですぐにわかるはずです。
歩数を数えたり、バック宙や横飛びをすることです。
それで自分のいる場所を把握することができますね。
こう言うパターンで、最初の宝箱まで安全にたどり着くことができます。
この迷路の岩は周期的に変化しているので、実はこの部分の入力は非常に速くする必要があるのです。
無事に手に入れました。良かったですね。
次は、森から脱出することです。
通常のプレイであれば、まず盾を手に入れて、最初のダンジョンまで行きますが、後に使いたいグリッチを行うためには、さらにいくつかのアイテムが必要です。
というわけで、迷いの森へ移動してます。
メニューで剣を装備してます。
メニューにはいつも同じ入力が必要ですから、覚えやすいです。
途中で、ルピーを集めます。ルピーはあとで必要なんですから。
ここでは、ナビダイブというスピードランの最初のグリッチを見ることができます。
森からゾラス川に出る方法はありますが、深く潜る必要があります。
より深く潜るためには、まず金のウロコが必要です。
このモニュメントの特定の場所に位置取りをして、ナビのテキストボックスでジャンプスラッシュをキャンセルするんです。
すると、水中に反動が起こり、ナビが話しかけてくるので、エントリーのすぐ横の水底に押し出されます。
あとはテキストをキャンセルして、ローディングゾーンを泳いで森を抜け出せます。
Fishing:
これからは、オーバーワールドをたくさん移動することです。
目標はハイリア湖に行き、次の重要なアイテムを手に入れることです。
もっと具体的に、 金のウロコを手に入れることです。
ゾラス川では、ルピーをたくさん集めるのは、すごく大事です。
釣りをしたり、アイテムを買ったりするの必要なお金ですよ。
ここはほとんど川に流されてしまうので、あまり迷う心配はありません。
ここで使う目隠しテクニックリンクは泳ぎの音を数えることです。
ハイラル野原では、歩く道が長いので、お話する時間がたくさんあります。
さて、お気づきの方もいらっしゃるかもしれませんが、リンクは常に後ろ向きで歩いていますね。
後ろ歩きは、実はリンクの最速移動オプションだからです。
目隠しでは、良い角度を設定して、目的地までひたすら後ろ歩きで移動します。
ハイリア湖の入り口には、フクロウが待ち構えていて、長い時間話しかけてくるので、横から近づく必要があります。
それでフクロウの話をスキップすることができます。
まだ時間がありますので、もうちょっとセットアップについて話しましょう。
Zボタンを押すとカメラはいつも同じ方向に向けています。目隠しRTAではすごく大事なことです。
バク宙と横飛びの後にAボタンを押すと、リンクがロールします。
そのロールの途中でZボタンを押すと、カメラが45度や90度ぐらい回します。セットアップの時にカメラの方向を変更するために使います。
最後にハシゴを登り、やっとハイリア湖に到着します。
ハイリア湖では、そのまま釣り堀に直行します。
そこで一番大きな魚を釣れば、金のウロコを手に入れることができます。
「だけどBubziaさん! 普通にはハートピースしかもらえないんでしょう？」と思う方もいらっしゃいますよね。
まあ、その通りなのですが、子供リンクとして釣りをすると、大人の報酬がもらえるグリッチがあります。
それについては後でお話します。
釣りは一般的に、ランの中で最もランダムな部分のひとつです。
魚が食いつかないこともありますが、その場合はもう一度釣竿を投げればいいんです。
魚が食いついた後に逃げたら、釣り堀から出て再挑戦しなければなりませんが、これは完全にランダムです。
60ルピーしか持ってないので、3回しか不挑戦できません。
魚を捕まえた後, 目隠しRTAには、ナビの音で遠くの魚をエコロケーションして、カメラ方向のセットアップをします。
金のウロコを入手するためのグリッチを有効にするには、魚を釣ってからZを押しながら水の中に入り、他のボタンを押さずに店員さんに話しかける必要があります。
そうすると、金のウロコが手に入れます。 
金のウロコの次は、ハイリア湖に眠るビンとルト姫の手紙を手に入れることです。
この手紙をゾーラ王のところに持っていけば、 空き瓶が手に入ります。
Zoras Domain: 
ビンの所にたどり着くため、またリンクの泳ぎ音を数えます。
44音の後、潜ります。
あ、ちょっと短かったんですね。
問題ない！ちょっとだけ前に泳いで、もう一度潜ります。
金のウロコのおかげで、ビンを無事に手に入れられます。
その後はゾーラの里に到着します。
まずはアイテムをファームします。
ゾーラのショップのリロードを利用して、合計15ルピーとデクの実15個、そしてデクの棒を2本手に入れます。
全ての行動はセットアップ通りになります。
その後、王様のところに行き、また長いカットシーンの後、空き瓶を手に入れます。
ここからは、空き瓶に魚を入れるために、また下に降りていく必要があります。
この魚は、とても大事な魚です。
世の中で一番大事な魚かもしれません。
魚を手に入れたら、ゲーム機を再起動します。
Ghoma。
ファイルをリロードすると、再び森の中、具体的にリンクの家にリスポーンします。
集めたルピーでようやくショップに行き、盾とデクの実を購入します。
ここからは通常のルートで、最初のダンジョンに行きます。
途中で、敵からデクの棒2本を手に入れます。
最初のダンジョンはデクの木です。
このダンジョンで最初の課題は、床にあるくもの巣を壊すことです。
最近、「クイック・プッタウェイ」という新しいテクニックが発見されました。
それを使えば、瞬時にくもの巣を破壊できますけど、1フレームの余裕しかないテクニックなのですし、失敗したときのバックアップが簡単ではないし、ライブRTAの場合はそれを使わずに、通常のルートを続けます。
面白いことに、スタルチゥラの横を登るとき、ゆっくり登って行けば、敵が攻撃してこないのです！
頂上からくもの巣に落ち、すぐにはしごを位置を確認するために使います。
その後に、本当にかっこいいスキップ、「メガサイドホップB1スキップ」を行います。「メガサイドホップ」は、基本的に横跳び中に盾でダメージを跳ね返すことです。
かなり正確ですが、幸いなことに良い音のセットアップがあります。
ご覧の通り、地下の上のプラットフォームまで飛んで行き、ダンジョンの半分ぐらいをスキップすることができます。
次に、2つ目のくもの巣に火をつけます。
そのために、通常プレイにはブロックを押す必要がありますが、正確な角度を取ると、バック宙の後に正確にジャンプスラッシュをして、デクの棒を点灯させることができます。
地下に待つデクの敵はかなり簡単で、盾を使って普通にデクの実を撃ち返すだけです。
最後の敵には素早く話しかけないと逃げられ、目隠しのせいでどこに行ったかわからなくなる。
そろそろ最初のボスの登場です。
ゴーマという敵ですね。
そして、この部分にも2つのグリッチを使う必要があります!
部屋に入ってから、デクの棒でジャンプスラッシュをしていますよね。
リンクが盾をを振るう時に剣でしゃがみ刺すと、実は剣のダメージではなく最後の攻撃の攻撃力を使っています。
それは「パワークラウチスタブ」というグリッチです。
なお、デクの棒で使ったジャンプスラッシュは大ダメージを与えることができます。
信じられないぐらいのダメージなんですよ。
大体マスターソードと同じダメージなんですよ。
デクの実2個とゴーマの目にしゃがみ刺し2回でループして、最後にジャンプスラッシュでゴーマを倒します。
ボスを倒した瞬間の位置が非常に重要で、実は同時に2つ目のグリッチも起こります。
自分の体力を0.5点に設定したことにお気づきでしょうか？
最後のジャンプスラッシュは、実はリンクとボスを同時に殺す必要があります。
ボスを倒した後、通常、ボス部屋は壁で閉ざされているはずですが、このような「ダブルキル」を行う時、ボス部屋を開けたままにリスポーンすることができます。
これは次のグリッチでとても重要になります。
WrongWarp:
さて、ここからが一番ややこしいところになります。
ここまで集めたアイテムを持って、もう一度メガサイデホップでボス地下に戻ります。
そして、再びボス部屋に入ります。
ここからは複雑で多くのグリッチが絡んできます。
まず安全のためにハートの器を回収して、次に扉まで戻って、非常に決まった設定を始まります。
まずはバク宙5回をして、魚を取り出して、魚を床に落として、そして最後にもう一度魚を捕まえます。
捕まえる途中でメニューを開きます。
このメニューの時に、実は「瓶を複製」というグリッチを使っています。
ご覧の通り、いきなり右上のボタンで瓶が2本になってしまいました。
ここからセットアップを続けて、「オカリナアイテム」というグリッチを行います。
基本的には剣でオカリナを演奏するのです。
そのグリッチは青いワープのちょうど1ピクセル横でしなければなりません。
カットシーンが始まるけど、リンクはまだオカリナを吹いてますね。
オカリナを吹く時のBボタンを押せますから、カットシーンから抜け出すことができます。
そこからフレームパーフェクトなセットアップが行い、デクの実2個と正確な入力でドアまで戻る必要があります。
さて、ドアを開くと...
ガノンの城に到着しました！
このグリッチは「Wrong Warp」といって、ゲームのメモリにセットアップした壊れたカットシーンポインタを利用して、意図しない場所にワープするのです。
Tower Escape:
この最後のパートでは、3分以内にガノンの塔から脱出しなければなりません。
でも、その前にもう一つ、ちょっとしたグリッチをしなければなりません。
実はとても簡単なものです。
目的は塔から脱出せずに、ただ死ぬことです。
なぜかって？
子供のリンクは普通に城の中にいてはいけないんです。
で、死んで脱出シークエンスをリロードすると、突然Bボタンで大人のマスターソードが使えるようになるんです！
その剣はスタルフォスとの戦いの時にすごく大事になります。
しかし、その前に難しい動きで下に降りなければなりません。
脱出の際の問題は主に3つ。
一つ、ランダムに地面に落ちてくる岩で、位置が狂ってダメージを受けることです。
二つ、時間が3分しかなく、特に目隠しRTAの場合、あまり長くない。
そして、三つは、どんなことがあっても、燃えている岩に触れては絶対にいけないということです。
それはスタルフォスとの戦いで起こりやすいのですが、うっかり岩を触ってしまうと、ゲーム機がクラッシュして、Wrong Warpの前の状態からすべてやり直さなければなりません。
マラソン設定では、おそらくカカリコ村から素早く別の盾を手に入れるでしょう。
そのハイリアの盾があれば、クラッシュすることはできません。
さて、スタルフォスの部屋です。
ここがRTA内で一番難しくて、一番ランダムなところです。
スタルフォスは2や3ヒットでリンクを殺し、「燃える岩」へと導いてくれる可能性があります。
敵をジャンプスラッシュ3回で倒さなければなりません。
そのため、デクの実で気絶させ、ジャンプスラッシュをして、ループを狙う必要があるのです。
そうすればすぐに倒せるのですが、非常にランダムで難しいです。
問題は、一度失敗して死ぬと、デクの実の数がたりないかもしれないということです。
最初は16個しか持ってないので、もうデクの実なしで再挑戦しなければならないことです。
あるいは、もう一度Wrong Warpをする前にリセットしなければなりません。
だから、絶対に一発で成功させたいんです。
もし、リンクが戦い中でダメージを受けたら、前に使った剣でオカリナを演奏するグリッチで簡単に自分を回復させることができます。
同じグリッチで、クローンした空き瓶でオカリナを吹くと、ゲームはなぜか中にミルクが入っていると勘違いして、リンクの体力を全回復する。
さらに数部屋進むと、 ガノンとの最後の大きな戦いが始まります。
Ganon: 
このカットシーンで、ラスボス戦の説明をします。
2つのフェーズがあります。
フェーズ1では、剣がないのですが、幸いにも棒とデクの実が非常に強力です。
デクの実2個とスティック2個で即死ループを狙います。
もし失敗したら、子供リンクの剣を出して、通常の方法でなんとか倒せるようにする必要があります。
フェーズ2では、まずマスターソードを見つけ、相手の顔をジャンプスラッシュしてスタンロックさせ、さらに数回ジャンプスラッシュして尻尾に当てる必要があります。
5発当てる必要があります。
リンクは1発で即死するので、失敗したら脱出を全部繰り返さなければならないので、とても怖い戦いなんです。
フェーズ2が終わったら、基本的に終わりで、あとはガノンに剣で最後の一撃を加えるだけです。
目隠しと普通のRTAの違いがいくつかありますよね。
普通のRTAはこのカテゴリで全く他のルートを使っています。
まずはビンをGIMと言うグリッチで最初のダンジョンで手に入れます。
一度も最初の森から出ません。
その後にも塔の脱出を全部スキップします。
戦い方もぜんぜんちがうんです。
じゃあ、本番を見ましょう。
フエーズ１が完璧にループを成功しました。
フエーズ２はどうだろう...
出来ました！ダメージを受けずに無事でガノンを倒しました！
ラストヒットはカットシーンの後になります！
それでタイマーストップです。
目隠しをしたまま、35分ぐらいで「ゼルダの伝説　時のオカリナ」をクリアしました。
ゼルダは脱出シークエンスで初めて会ったようなものなのに、リンクが悪から救い出すことに成功しました。
よかったですね。
本当にご視聴ありがとうございました！
このRTAをRTAinJapanに応募したいと思いますけど、どう思いますか？
視聴者として楽しいRTAなんですか？
コメントで教えてください！
私の名前はBubziaです。これからもよろしくお願いします！

2026 Bubzia GDQ Gamescom Commentary Notes
Blindfolded Ocarina of Time any% - Commentary Notes
I will divide this document into multiple sections that represent usual splits in the run, as well as general information about the whole game and the blindfolded aspect of it.
Feel free to just do the commentary how you feel like, I think with your game knowledge it will be totally fine to just go with the flow and have fun. It's not necessary to include all the information here, I just thought it could be a guideline if you want some more details on some sections etc. Do as you see fit best! :) If there are any questions I am always available to answer them too!
Information
Current PB WITH Marathon strats: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3gDMtTF54Y 
Marathon race vs Runnerguy WITH commentary about the run: https://youtu.be/gv_fxzFm8HY?t=2561
History
I routed Any% blindfolded for the first time in 2020, and finished the world first run just over 1 hour. I pushed the times down a bit and then CrystalSaver and HyrulianKnight came and improved the route a bit and grinded. This was pre- collapse skip. A bit later, Nico2718 and Runnerguy came back to the category and started grinding more optimized times together with me including collapse skip. We found some new optimizations and grinded quite a lot. I was mostly focusing on marathon safe strategies as I got into AGDQ with OOT vs MM. The current WR by Runnerguy is a 22:xx.
Movement: most of the setups and movement are done with Ztarget cam, all the roll options for angles and consistent jump distances are a blessing for blindfolded.
The route varies quite a bit from the visual one as we cannot get a bottle reliably via GIM at this point while blindfolded. We also cannot do Kakariko bottle as the chickens are too random, hence we need to fish and do the big detour through the entire world to get ruto’s letter bottle via fishing for gold scale.
Splits
ForestEscape
The very first thing we need to do is to get our sword. In blindfolded, we use many techniques to navigate through the world. Most importantly as you can instantly see here, we count steps, backflips and sideflips to keep track of where we are. Like this we can safely make our way to the first chest with the sword. The rock in this maze is on a cycle, so we actually need to be quite fast in our inputs in this part. We also start getting marathon safety rupees, as we need money to fish and usually, we will have 2 attempts at fishing before a full reset is required.
The next step is to escape out of the forest. In a normal playthrough, you would get the shield now and go into the first dungeon, but we need some more items in order to perform our speedrun glitches. Thats is why we go to the lost woods. 
Here, we will see our first glitches of the run. We try a frame perfect jumpslash with a specific setup to clip into the stone to swim out of the forest, and if we miss it, we perform a glitch called Navi Dive. For that, we position ourselves in a very specific spot on this monument and then cancel our jumpslash with the navi textbox. That will recoil us underwater and since navi is speaking to us, we get pushed to the bottom of the water right next to the entry. We can then cancel the text and just swim through the loading zone to escape the forest.
Fishing
Now we need to do lots of overworld movement. Our goal is to get to Lake Hylia to get our next important item: The golden scale! In Zora’s River, we collect a bunch of Rupees on the way since we will need money to go fishing and to buy some items later on. We mostly get carried by the river here, so not much to worry about. We count the swims of Link for the movement.
In Hyrule Field, we have a lot of time to talk because there is a long section of walking. (also good time for donations). Now you might have noticed that Link is always walking backwards. That is because the targeted backwalk is actually the fastest movement option of Link. In blindfolded we want to setup a good angle and then just backwalk all the way to our destination. We need to approach the entrance to Lake Hylia from the side, as there is an owl waiting that usually will talk to us for a long time. We take the ladder at the end and just skip the owl with this particular movement though.
In Lake Hylia, we just go straight to the Fishing Pond. There we can win the gold scale by fishing the biggest fish. But originally, you would only get a heartpiece right? That is correct, but we will use a glitch that will get us the adult reward for fishing with child link! I will talk about it later. Fishing in general is one of the most random parts of the run though and in terms of marathons the absolute scariest. The fish can decide to just not bite, but in that case you can just throw your fishing rod again. If the fish bites and then escapes, which is totally random, you have to exit the pond and retry. In PB attempts it's an instant reset, but for marathons I need to learn quiet a lot of  backup setups only for that stupid fish. We also only have 60 rupees so 2-3 tries, then it's an absolute disaster. 
We set up some specific position and then fish, and after everything worked well, we use another fish to locate our camera position and then continue with the scale glitch.
To activate the glitch to obtain the gold scale, we have to catch the fish and then walk into the water while holding Z. We then need to navigate and talk to the shopkeeper without pressing any other buttons. And tada, we get the gold scale!  
Next with the gold scale, we can get the bottle that lays in Lake Hylia with Rutos Letter. This letter we will have to bring to the Zora King in order to obtain an empty bottle.
Zoras Domain
First of all there is a bit of farming: We use the shop reloading of the room to farm a total of 10 rupees and 10 deku nuts, as well as two Deku Sticks (might change amounts for marathon safety). 
Then we walk up to the King and get the bottle after another long Mweep cutscene. Good donation time :) 
From here, we need to go back down to collect a fish into our empty bottle. Trust me, it will be a very important fish. After we get the fish, we restart the console. Sometimes its very difficult to catch the fish as it is somewhat RNG dependent, but after a while it should work out.
Deku Tree
When we reopen the file, we spawn again at our house in the forest. With our collected rupees, we finally go to the shop and buy our shield. From here we follow the normal route and go to the first dungeon. On the way, we farm 2 (or 3 in marathon settings) more Deku Sticks from enemies. 
The first task inside this dungeon is to get the slingshot and break the web on the floor. There has been a new trick recently called “Quick Putaway” which lets you destroy the web instantly, but it is a one-frame trick, so for a marathons I am not going for it. I just take the normal route you can see here. We just move towards the slingshot room, try for a navi textbox skip before the door, hit the scrub with a shielded nut (the camera can mess up very rarely here, its kinda scary) and get the slingshot. Then we climb up the tree the normal way to break the web via big fall like in a casual playthrough.
We drop onto the web and quickly set up our position again with the ladder, because now comes a really big and cool skip: the megasidehop b1 skip. We use one of the enemies here to do a megasidehop, which is basically a damage recoil with our shield followed by a sidehop. It is pretty precise, but we have a good audio cue for this. As you can see, we fly all the way onto the upper platform and skip most of the dungeon with this. Now we need fire for the second web. 
For this, you usually would need to push the block, but with some precise angles, you can use a trick and jumpslash precisely with a stick after a backflip to light your torch, we use it to open the web and prepare for the scrubs.
The scrubs are fairly easy, we just shoot their deku nuts back at them. We need to damage ourselves here to 0.5 hearts. At the end we need to be quick the talk to the last scrub, otherwise he escapes and blindfolded, we dont know where he goes.
It is time for the first boss of the game: Ghoma! And again, we need to use two glitches here!
After entering the room, you notice that I do a jumpslash with my stick. We will use a glitch called power crouchstab in this fight, because when Link shields and stabs with his sword, it actually take the attack value of the last attack and not of the sword. And a jumpslash with the stick does a LOT of damage. We use 1 slingshot shot and 2 crouch stabs into Ghomas eye to stunlock it, then we do a final jumpslash to kill him off. Now it is very important how we were positioned because we actually at the same time did a second trick. Did you notice that I set up my health to exactly 0.5 hearts? Well the last jumpslash actually killed me and the boss at the same time. Double Kill! This allows us to respawn at the top of the dungeon with the boss room open, because the wall closes usually after you defeat him and you cannot go back otherwise. This will be very important for the next glitch.
WrongWarp
Now comes the most complicated part of the run. With all the items we have collected so far, we go back to the boss room using one more megasidehop. Then we enter the boss room again. Okay now it will be complicated and many glitches will be involved. From entering the boss door, we set up a very specific spot and do a very specific setup, I take my fish out, drop it on the floor and then catch it again. This is for a glitch called “Ocarina Items”. This allows us to trigger the blue warp but also cancel out of the cutscene because we basically, we play Ocarina with our sword. You can see, the cutscene starts playing and from then we need to do a frame perfect setup with two deku nuts and precise input to get back to the door. (Fun fact: I pseudo-beatcount this with the SM64 slider music)) Now when we enter….
We end up at Ganons Castle, the very end of the game! What we did earlier is called “Wrong Warp”, basically we use a broken cutscene pointer in the games memory to warp to a different are than intended. If I by any means mess up anything here, I need to save and quit all the way to links house to get the correct cutscene pointer again in order to retry.
Collapse Skip
Now comes one of the hardest part of the run:
We need to do a new collapse skip setup, which requires 4-5 back to back frame perfect inputs. How is that possible visually, or even blindfolded? The answer is pausebuffering. You can pause and unpause in OoT and buffer inputs to be executed right afterwards, but that does not make things 100% easier. For blindfolded, all we have to work with is audio cues. Frame advancing during pauses is not very easy as you still need to frame perfectly pause again after 1f. I try to pseudo beatcount how long it takes until the first frame plays but yeah, its really difficult without visual cue. The good thing: 3 out of the 4-5 frame perfect pauses have a distinct audio cue (sword hitting the wall on the first frame). We can use that to confirm if we paused correctly. The problem is that the other pauses have ZERO indication because we need to frame advance one frame AFTER a sound cue. If everything works out, we should clip through the floor and be able to skip right to the end of the escape sequence. If we fail, I should be able to back up my position and simply retry again. We then just need to clear the final room and enter the final cutscenes. (Last time for donations)
Ganon
I will explain the last bossfight during this cutscene. It has 2 phases. 
In phase 1, we do not have our sword, but luckily, sticks and deku nuts are very strong as well. We attempt a quick kill loop with 2 nuts and 2 sticks that should kill him instantly. If that fails, we need to get our kokiri sword out and hope that we manage to beat him the normal way.
In Phase 2, we first need to find our sword and then jumpslash his face to stunlock him, and jumpslash a few more times to hit his tail. We need 5 hits. This is all very scary because one hit of Ganon means instant death, and we have to repeat the EVERYTHING from the beginning of the Wrong Warp (Its quite scary as its extremely unsafe with Ganon and Fishing. If everything goes to hell and I go close to over estimate I will just reload the fight in GZ or something. We had to quit some marathon runs in the past as Ganon is a notorious run killer) 
After phase 2, its is basically over, all that is left to do is is do a final slash with the sword onto ganon. And that is it! We beat Ocarina of Time, while being blindfolded, in less than an ~40 minutes! We have successfully saved Zelda from the evil, even though we kind of met her in the escape sequence for the first time.
