  21. Q. What exactly is Low%
  22. A. Low% is a category where the primary objective is to complete the game collecting as few items as possible.
  23.  
  24. Q. How is that different from Any%?
  25. A. Many items obtained in Any% are not absolutely required, but are obtained because they make the run that much faster despite the time cost of obtaining them. This run is significantly slower than Any% because it often requires performing complicated tricks in order to circumvent needing those items.
  26.  
  27. Q. Why is this run done on the English version?
  28. A. 16 item Low% is impossible to complete on the Japanese version, as several English version exclusive glitches enable us to skip more items than would otherwise be possible. The minimum amount of items needed to complete a run of the Japanese version is 18.

  30. Q. Why use the Blast Mask as opposed to Bombs?
  31. A. In order to get bombs, I would have to buy the Bomb Bag, which would mean receiving two items. Not only would I receive Bombs, but the bomb bag itself counts as an item. Because I can accomplish everything I need with the Blast Mask, it is the best option since it lowers the item count by 1 compared to bombs.

  36. Q. What is GIM?
  37. A. GIM or Get Item Manipulation, is a glitch most well known for it's use in OoT Any%, where it's used to obtain a Blue Potion in Deku Tree. This glitch is also possible to perform in Majora's Mask, and is used in this run to obtain the Ocarina of Time after having duped over it earlier in the run. In order to perform the glitch, you must collect an item that would initiate a collection cutscene, but interrupt it before it can give you the item. From there, the item that you actually obtain can be manipulated by standing near chests, whose contents will dictate the new item that will be obtained. Finally, surfacing in water will initiate the collection cutscene with the new item.
