Introducing a minimalist mmx2 run.
NOTE:I make the run in very short time so It look very un-optimal.
I barely touch my computer these days due to power shortage.

I fought flame stag before wheel gator so that i can get the heart without taking damage.
I kill enemies only when necessary to proceed.
Takes all items including shoryuken(flame uppercut)
It seems your goals are, by priority:
1. Collect all upgrades
2. Take no damage
3. Damage as few enemies as possible
4. Fastest completion
I'm guessing 2 and 3 are why you don't go under that obstacle in the intro stage? I haven't watched all of the run yet, but why are some boss fights a lot slower? Is it due to your goal of not taking any damage? Did you really have to kill the jumping shield guys in the shoryuken stage?
You seem to lose a large amount of time simply due to lack of precision in your movements. For example, in the ascent to the boss refight teleporter room, you lose over 10 frames even though that section has no enemies or damage that you have to avoid. This seems to happen every time you have to scale a wall.
Voting no: overall optimization needs work; doesn't make use of known techniques; uses an obsolete emulator that is known to emulate X2 poorly; and has too many conflicting goals in one run.
jlun2, your quote is skipping some vital parts.

But if I said that, some people would probably explode. So I'm not going to say it outright. However, we will be disallowing Snes9x sometime in the future, even though no hard date is yet set. You've been warned.

<dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects.
<Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits
<adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

Huh. I was looking at this, and since Snes9x was listed along with Famtasia, I had concluded that Nach forgot to update the post. :P
Sorry.

Marx, keep in mind that the outdated emulator was the least of this run's problems.
