    Which card would you like me
    to attack you with?
[00:06] ---
    Vampire Princess of Night Fog,
    Nightrose, please!
[00:11] ---
    Roger!
[00:13] ---
    Vampire Princess of Night Fog, Nightrose...
[00:17] ---
    ...attacks you!
[00:20] ---
    Awesome!
[00:25] ---
    Curtain Call Announcer, Mephisto, please!
[00:28] ---
    Sure!
[00:30] ---
    Curtain Call Announcer, Mephisto...
[00:33] ---
    Shoot!
[00:35] ---
    ...attacks you!
[00:39] ---
    That's how it attacks?!
[00:42] ---
    That's intense!
[00:45] ---
    That's good, too!
[00:47] ---
    Oh! I... I'm sorry!
[00:49] ---
    Are you okay?
[00:50] ---
    Yes! In fact, I'm grateful!
[00:59] ---
    Come again soon! We'll be waiting!

[02:37] ---
    U-Um, there's a popular cake shop near here,
[02:42] ---
    and I hear their cream puffs are delicious.
[02:45] ---
    We're done working today, right?
    Would you like to go there together...
[02:52] ---
    I've gotta go.
[02:54] ---
    Well, good work!
[02:56] ---
    What about... the cream puffs?
SIGN    Turn 16  Vanguard Girls' Meet
[03:10] ---
    All right, then,
[03:12] ---
    the next G Quest will be at United Sanctuary.
[03:15] ---
    Yeah.
[03:16] ---
    Branch Chief Ren Suzugamori
[03:18] ---
    and the fighters he leads...
[03:21] ---
    He's a formidable opponent.
[03:22] ---
    You say "formidable," but you're smiling.
[03:25] ---
    So are you.
[03:28] ---
    If we win the next one,
    we'll get to Generation Master.
[03:31] ---
    That doesn't change our goal.
    There are two branches left.
[03:35] ---
    Our aim is to win at all the branches
    and completely dominate the G Quest.
[03:39] ---
    Yeah!
[03:44] ---
    Skill activated.
[03:45] ---
    I attack your Vanguard.
[03:47] ---
    You're really good.
[03:52] ---
    Kumi, hang in there!
[03:54] ---
    What should I do, Tokoha?!
    I'm in a real pinch!
[03:58] ---
    If you lose confidence,
    you'll lose the fight.
[04:00] ---
    Picture it! A victorious future!
[04:03] ---
    That's really tough in this situation.
[04:07] ---
    Come to think of it...
[04:10] ---
    Didn't you want to ask my advice
    about something?
[04:12] ---
    Right.
[04:15] ---
    What is it? What's wrong?
[04:18] ---
    Actually, it's about Am...
[04:21] ---
    Am? Did you have a fight or something?
[04:23] ---
    No, no! We're getting along fine...
[04:27] ---
    ...when it comes to Rummy Labyrinth.
[04:31] ---
    But that's all.
[04:34] ---
    That's what troubles you?
[04:37] ---
    We never go out to eat
    together or hang out...
[04:42] ---
    After work, she always goes straight home.
[04:45] ---
    Even though I'd like to talk a lot more
    with Am and get to know her better...
[04:50] ---
    What about Vanguard? Aren't you two
    always playing against each other?
[04:53] ---
    Recently, not at all.
[04:55] ---
    Really?
[04:56] ---
    Am said I've progressed to the point where it won't
    hinder our work, so we don't need to fight anymore.
[05:03] ---
    You certainly have gotten stronger.
[05:06] ---
    Even though I've been playing
    longer than she has!
[05:10] ---
    I'm not drawing any stand triggers!
[05:13] ---
    Don't worry about it, Kumi.
[05:18] ---
    I try to invite her,
    but it doesn't work out somehow.
[05:22] ---
    And recently, Am hasn't been
    her usual cheerful self.
[05:26] ---
    Sometimes she seems really depressed,
    and that worries me, too.
[05:32] ---
    I wonder what she should do...
[05:34] ---
    Getting close to someone isn't something
    you can do by working hard at it.
[05:38] ---
    I've got it! It's almost
    Valentine's Day, right?
[05:42] ---
    Why don't you give her chocolate as a friend?
[05:44] ---
    Yeah!
[05:47] ---
    That might work!
[05:49] ---
    All right! For now, let's go with that!
[05:52] ---
    Yeah!
[05:55] ---
    I think homemade is probably best.
[05:58] ---
    Yeah! I know I'd be happy to get that.
[06:01] ---
    Then let's look for
    ingredients and decorations.
[06:04] ---
    Great!
[06:13] ---
    Am?
[06:20] ---
    I wonder where she's going.
[06:22] ---
    Probably shopping.
[06:24] ---
    Shopping by herself?
SIGN    For Pedestrians
     and Bicyclists Only
[06:35] ---
    Luna?
[06:39] ---
    A-Am...
[06:43] ---
    Listen, I...
[06:48] ---
    I want to hang out together!
[06:56] ---
    Am, actually, we were just about to...
[07:02] ---
    Yes...
[07:11] ---
    Okay.
[07:13] ---
    That's suspicious, isn't it, Tokoha?
[07:16] ---
    I wonder who she was talking to.
[07:19] ---
    Maaaaybe...
[07:22] ---
    ...a date or something?
[07:23] ---
    N-No!
[07:24] ---
    Is that what it was?!
[07:26] ---
    Luna!
[07:27] ---
    That's why you always
    secretly use that phone.
[07:32] ---
    Right?
[07:36] ---
    It's okay. You've obviously got
    another engagement, so go ahead.
[07:39] ---
    Go ahead. Don't pay us any attention.
[07:42] ---
    Right!
[07:43] ---
    Like, go ahead with your young beau?
[07:46] ---
    Right!
[07:48] ---
    Like, never mind us?
[07:51] ---
    Right!
[07:54] ---
    Fine. I'll hang out with you.
[07:58] ---
    I don't want you to get any weird ideas.
[08:01] ---
    But don't you have an appointment?
[08:03] ---
    I don't have any plans.
    I was just going to take a stroll.
[08:07] ---
    Then...
[08:11] ---
    3... 2... 1!
[08:17] ---
    Now make a strange face.
[08:19] ---
    What, seriously?
[08:21] ---
    Forget it! I don't wanna do that!
[08:23] ---
    3... 2... 1!
[08:38] ---
    You almost got it!
[08:40] ---
    Are you that happy?
[08:41] ---
    After all, this is our
    first photo booth two-shot!
[08:45] ---
    We're always taking photos together,
    for social networks and the blog.
[08:52] ---
    That's different. Totally different.
[08:58] ---
    This is cute.
[09:00] ---
    They have it in different colors, too.
[09:10] ---
    Growl!
[09:14] ---
    It suits you!
[09:19] ---
    In the end, we didn't buy anything.
[09:21] ---
    I saw something I liked, but I
    don't have enough to pay for it.
[09:25] ---
    Tell me about it.
[09:27] ---
    But they're in show business.
[09:34] ---
    What's it like for idols?
[09:36] ---
    Big money?
[09:37] ---
    Kumi, you're asking them straight out?!
[09:39] ---
    I'm not telling you that!
[09:40] ---
    Besides, it's more like...
[09:43] ---
    If we make everyone happy,
    that's all we need.
[09:47] ---
    We get paid with everyone's smiles.
[09:49] ---
    That's Rummy Labyrinth!
[09:54] ---
    Are you listening?
[09:56] ---
    Tell me! I won't tell anyone else.
[10:00] ---
    How much?
[10:02] ---
    Forget it!
[10:03] ---
    Shoo! Shoo!
[10:05] ---
    Oh, come on! Tell me!
[10:07] ---
    I won't!
[10:08] ---
    No matter what?
[10:09] ---
    No matter what!
[10:11] ---
    Please, governor!
[10:14] ---
    No way!
[10:16] ---
    Then I'll just tell you Am's!
[10:19] ---
    Really?! Tell me!
[10:21] ---
    Luna!
[10:23] ---
    Am was panicking! That's hilarious!
[10:26] ---
    Knock it off!
[10:27] ---
    Now she's mad!
[10:34] ---
    I'm hungry. Wanna get something to eat?
[10:39] ---
    Pasta?
[10:40] ---
    Omelet with fried rice.
[10:43] ---
    Hey, which do you like better, 
    udon noodles or soba noodles?
[10:47] ---
    Definitely soba! And croquettes 
    on top of the soba!
[10:51] ---
    That's a must!
[10:52] ---
    No, that would be fish-paste cake tempura.
[10:55] ---
    I like fish-paste cake tempura,
    but croquettes are much better as a topping.
[11:00] ---
    I stand by fish-paste cake tempura.
[11:02] ---
    But on top of udon noodles instead of soba.
[11:08] ---
    You'd go with croquettes, right, Kumi?
[11:10] ---
    Because you love the croquette buns
    from Nishi Bakery, right?
[11:13] ---
    You'd go with fish-paste
    cake tempura, right, Luna?
[11:15] ---
    You're always happy when that's
    included in our lunch, right?
[11:18] ---
    W-We...
[11:21] ---
    ...don't care either way.
[11:24] ---
    You're not gonna back down, huh?
[11:25] ---
    And neither are you!
[11:26] ---
    Then we'll just have to do this.
[11:29] ---
    That's right! Let's resolve this
    once and for all!
[11:31] ---
    With Vanguard!
[11:33] ---
    Why has it come to this?!
[11:49] ---
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[11:55] ---
    Peach Orchard Maiden, Elmy!
[11:57] ---
    Undying Departed, Grenache!
[12:01] ---
    Granblue...
[12:03] ---
    I'll teach your croquette
    the terror of the Drop Zone!
[12:07] ---
    Ride!
[12:09] ---
    Parting Shade!
[12:11] ---
    Ride!
[12:13] ---
    Pure Maiden, Katrina!
[12:15] ---
    Attack!
[12:20] ---
    Ride!
[12:21] ---
    Pirate Swordsman, Colombard!
[12:27] ---
    What?! Ride!
[12:30] ---
    Ideal Maiden, Thuria!
[12:33] ---
    It's one new card after the other!
[12:36] ---
    This is the new deck you made
    with Misaki, right?
[12:39] ---
    You're serious, Tokoha!
[12:41] ---
    Of course!
[12:42] ---
    Croquettes are second to nothing!
[12:44] ---
    They're the strongest and supreme!
[12:46] ---
    The absolute ruler in the world of toppings!
[12:49] ---
    So I can't lose this fight!
[12:53] ---
    With a boost from Elmy,
    I attack your Vanguard!
[12:59] ---
    I ride Vampire Princess
    of Night Fog, Nightrose!
[13:04] ---
    I call Negrorook!
[13:06] ---
    Negrorook attacks your Vanguard!
[13:10] ---
    Guard!
[13:12] ---
    Soba or udon, rice, bread, 
    curry and pasta to boot.
[13:17] ---
    Dad's nighttime snack and on and on!
[13:23] ---
    It goes with any food and brings a smile
    and a full stomach to any diner!
[13:28] ---
    That is the croquette!
[13:31] ---
    Flower Princess of Spring, Arborea!
[13:35] ---
    The croquette is the almighty
    and the ultimate dish!
[13:39] ---
    Perfect guard!
[13:41] ---
    I'd say the same thing about
    fish-paste cake tempura.
[13:44] ---
    It doesn't get much appreciation,
[13:48] ---
    and I rarely see it on
    the menu at restaurants,
[13:52] ---
    but the sad, uncrowned emperor
    is fish-paste cake tempura!
[13:56] ---
    Stride Generation!
[13:58] ---
    Pirate King of Secret Schemes, Bandit Rum!
[14:02] ---
    Stride Skill!
[14:04] ---
    I call Negrorook from the
    Drop Zone as hollowed!
[14:07] ---
    And then I call Nightstorm as hollowed!
[14:10] ---
    But that's only until today.
[14:13] ---
    Fish-paste cake tempura
    will take the title of absolute ruler!
[14:17] ---
    Tokoha Anjou, child of croquette,
    I'm going to beat you!
[14:22] ---
    Nightstorm attacks your Vanguard!
[14:24] ---
    Luna! What are you doing?!
[14:27] ---
    That was a bad move?
[14:30] ---
    No, it may have been a good one.
[14:34] ---
    Go!
[14:36] ---
    Intercept!
[14:38] ---
    Kumi?!
[14:39] ---
    Yay!
[14:41] ---
    I like pumpkin tempura!
[14:48] ---
    Elmy boosts!
[14:50] ---
    Thuria attacks!
[14:52] ---
    Guard!
[14:55] ---
    Hey!
[14:56] ---
    I like pumpkin soup and pumpkin cake, too!
[15:01] ---
    That's not what this is about...
[15:03] ---
    So your partner betrayed you...
[15:06] ---
    Tokuha Anjou, you've lost.
[15:09] ---
    Stride Generation!
[15:12] ---
    Mist Phantasm Pirate King, Nightrose!
[15:17] ---
    Now it's time for you to experience
    the terror of the Drop Zone!
[15:21] ---
    I superior call Negrorook from the
    Drop Zone with a stride skill!
[15:26] ---
    Skill activated! I put
    Negrorook in a Hollow state!
[15:30] ---
    We'll open up the future
    of fish-paste cake tempura!
[15:34] ---
    Luna, go!
[15:36] ---
    I like cream puffs!
[15:39] ---
    +7000 power with Negrorook's skill!
[15:45] ---
    Guard! Intercept!
[15:50] ---
    You, too?
[15:53] ---
    Nightrose attacks your Vanguard!
[15:56] ---
    With Nightrose's skill, I call Nightstorm
    and Tommy Brothers from the Drop Zone!
[16:02] ---
    With its skill,
    Nightstorm becomes hollowed!
[16:09] ---
    Nightstorm!
[16:20] ---
    Heal trigger!
[16:22] ---
    Kumi?!
[16:23] ---
    Tokoha, fight!
[16:27] ---
    All right!
[16:29] ---
    Stride Generation!
[16:36] ---
    Ranunculus in Glorious Bloom....
[16:39] ---
    ...Ahsha!
[16:41] ---
    There it is! Tokoha's new G unit!
[16:45] ---
    Ranunculus in Glorious Bloom, Ahsha
    attacks your Vanguard!
[17:10] ---
    Not bad!
[17:12] ---
    But it's not over yet!
[17:15] ---
    I would hope not!
SIGN    Matsuki Curry
[17:27] ---
    Keep our seats warm.
[17:30] ---
    Roger! And you buy the food.
[17:33] ---
    Leave it to me! Come on, Luna!
[17:36] ---
    Right!
[17:38] ---
    With all the G Quests,
    you've become unbeatable.
[17:42] ---
    You're not bad either, Am. Now I know
    why Luna said she's never beaten you.
[17:47] ---
    But she also said you two
    haven't been fighting recently?
[17:50] ---
    She was feeling kind of lonely.
[17:53] ---
    We don't need to do it anymore.
[17:55] ---
    All business, huh? But you
    can play it outside of work.
[17:59] ---
    It's fun to fight your friends, isn't it?
[18:04] ---
    Am, what do you think of Luna?
[18:10] ---
    She's my Rummy Labyrinth partner.
[18:12] ---
    Is that all?
[18:15] ---
    I can vouch for Luna.
[18:17] ---
    Regarding work, she's serious and does her
    very best, and works hard during lessons.
[18:23] ---
    I think she's a good girl.
[18:25] ---
    You know, Luna was worried about you.
[18:28] ---
    She said you haven't been cheerful lately.
[18:31] ---
    And that you seem really depressed sometimes.
[18:34] ---
    Luna said that?
[18:36] ---
    Luna is watching you closely, Am.
[18:40] ---
    And not just for work. She said
    she wants to get to know you better.
[18:45] ---
    She wants to talk to you more and hang out.
[18:49] ---
    But it's not like she wants you
    to do anything, Am.
[18:54] ---
    Luna just wants you to know...
[18:57] ---
    ...that she likes you
    a lot more than you think.
[19:03] ---
    Hearing that doesn't do me any good.
[19:07] ---
    I know, right?
[19:09] ---
    What is she talking about? I've been fine.
[19:14] ---
    She's totally off base.
[19:18] ---
    Tokoha!
[19:21] ---
    Why did you get so many?!
[19:23] ---
    I guess we were their 100,000th customers...
SIGN    Congratulations! 100,000th Customer Celebration
[19:28] ---
    Congratulations! We're giving you
    the "for all we're worth" treatment!
[19:33] ---
    Congratulations!
[19:40] ---
    That's some happy happening!
[19:42] ---
    All right, Luna! Let's eat up!
[19:47] ---
    I had so much fun with you guys today
    that it's left me famished!
[19:51] ---
    Are those cream puffs?
[19:53] ---
    Yeah. Am!
[19:56] ---
    Let's eat them together!
[20:01] ---
    I'm sorry about before.
[20:03] ---
    On our next day off,
[20:04] ---
    let's go to that shop with the delicious
     cream puffs you were talking about.
[20:05] ---
    Here.
[20:07] ---
    Oh, soba!
[20:07] ---
    Am, you remembered!
[20:08] ---
    This is what we're having today.
[20:09] ---
    Fish-paste cake tempura!
[20:09] ---
    Yes, I remembered!
[20:11] ---
    I didn't think you were listening to me!
[20:18] ---
    And they even gave us tickets to
    the Ferris wheel. That's generous!
[20:22] ---
    After all, we were the 100,000th customers!
[20:25] ---
    It looks like Am didn't need
    this part of it, though.
[20:29] ---
    I'm surprised you're afraid of heights, Am.
[20:32] ---
    What's the big deal?
[20:34] ---
    Let's go on next.
[20:36] ---
    I'll hold your hand so you won't be afraid.
[20:39] ---
    Forget about it!
[20:42] ---
    Mama, hurry up!
[20:43] ---
    Okay, okay.
[20:47] ---
    It's warm!
[20:49] ---
    Shall we go home?
[20:50] ---
    Yeah!
[20:55] ---
    That wind goes right through, huh?
    I wonder if it's going to snow.
[21:00] ---
    I hate this season.
[21:04] ---
    It always reminds of something bad
    that happened to me.
[21:10] ---
    I was five years old.
[21:28] ---
    It was someone dear to me.
[21:31] ---
    Someone who was precious.
[21:35] ---
    You once searched for this for me, remember?
[21:41] ---
    This is a keepsake of that person.
[21:44] ---
    And of our bond.
[21:47] ---
    I lost everything that day.
[21:51] ---
    That's why I hate this season.
[21:54] ---
    I get depressed every time.
[21:58] ---
    But... nobody ever noticed before.
[22:03] ---
    Nobody until now. I've tried
    desperately to hide those feelings.
[23:56] ---
    The plan to become good friends worked great!
[24:01] ---
    It had perfect follow-through.
[24:03] ---
