**[00:01] ---**
It's almost the end of the third day
of the U20 Championship!
**[00:05] ---**
Rummy Labyrinth with Saya will
proceed to the second stage,
**[00:10] ---**
leaving only three places
for the other teams!
**[00:14] ---**
I can't sit still!
**[00:16] ---**
Eating and resting properly
are essential for victory.
**[00:20] ---**
You'll lose if you don't prepare well.
**[00:22] ---**
You're late! What were you doing?
We don't have time!
**[00:28] ---**
I was looking at the stars.
**[00:30] ---**
Come on now...
**[00:35] ---**
Attack Vanguard!
**[00:46] ---**
Alright!
**[02:18] ---**
*I have to find my next opponent soon.
There's no time!*
**[02:28] ---**
Let's have fun.
**[02:29] ---**
Y-Yes! Thank you.
**[02:33] ---**
*I've just been pulling my team down...*
**[02:38] ---**
*You can do it, Kumi!*
**[02:45] ---**
Rin?
**[02:46] ---**
Tokoha Anjou?!
***SIGN*** Turn 23 Strong, Violent, and Beautiful
**[02:54] ---**
*Only three more teams can
go to the second stage.*
**[02:58] ---**
*I can't afford to lose.*
**[03:00] ---**
I'm surprised.
**[03:02] ---**
I never thought that
you would join Shion's team.
**[03:06] ---**
*Kiba, your prey...*
**[03:09] ---**
*I'll be taking her down first.*
**[03:14] ---**
*30 minutes before fights conclude.*
**[03:16] ---**
*Your next fight will
be the last one today.*
**[03:20] ---**
Your last fight will be a massacre.
**[03:23] ---**
I won't lose. I'll be the one to win!
**[03:26] ---**
Stand Up! Vanguard!
**[03:29] ---**
Black Candle, Azrail!
**[03:33] ---**

**[03:41] ---**
Um...
**[03:45] ---**
Smile!
**[03:46] ---**
Ah, sorry.
**[03:48] ---**
But I thought you might look
better fighting with a smile.
**[03:54] ---**
Okay!
**[03:56] ---**
Here we have Tokoha Anjou and Rin Hashima
fighting fiercely from the start!
**[04:02] ---**
It's the fifth turn and Tokoha Anjou is
in the lead with three damage to two.
**[04:08] ---**
Ride!
**[04:09] ---**
Black Shiver, Gavrail!
**[04:11] ---**
Call! Nurse of Broken Heart!
**[04:14] ---**
*Gavrail...*
**[04:17] ---**
*Now I think about it, Rin has
always been ahead of me.*
**[04:22] ---**
*She took advantage of my complex
towards my brother and I lost our first fight.*
**[04:26] ---**
Attack with Gavrail!
**[04:32] ---**
*But I've become stronger
by overcoming that!*
**[04:37] ---**

**[04:56] ---**
*That's right. I've been scolded harshly.*
**[05:01] ---**
*Rin is a large wall that I must overcome.*
**[05:06] ---**
I'll smash it with all my strength!
**[05:08] ---**

**[05:25] ---**
*She has a Heal card in her hand.*
**[05:27] ---**

stop me with a G Guardian.*
**[05:30] ---**
*In that case...!*
**[05:31] ---**

**[06:34] ---**
*Now you've done it!*
**[06:35] ---**
*You were just an energetic little girl
whose only strong point was making a fuss!*
**[06:40] ---**
*But now she's...!*
**[06:42] ---**
Attack with Anelma!
**[06:46] ---**
*I'll admit it.*

it adds 2000 Power

**[07:44] ---**
Also, activate Maalik's Skill!

**[09:26] ---**
Impressive!
**[09:28] ---**
What do you mean?
**[09:30] ---**
Anelma is an important card.
It's the start of a Bloom.
**[09:34] ---**
Rin just destroyed that card.
**[09:35] ---**
I see!
**[09:37] ---**
Rin Hashima and Tokoha Anjou
know how each other fights.
**[09:41] ---**
Will-
**[09:42] ---**
- Don't lose, Tokoha!
- Jaime!
**[09:44] ---**
A commentator can't support
one fighter over another!
**[09:47] ---**
Rin Hashima, the winner of
the Vanguard Queens' match
**[09:52] ---**
has been approached by
scouts from several Pro teams!
**[09:56] ---**
Let's see how this fight plays out!
Cut it out Jaime!
**[10:00] ---**
*A pro fighter...*
**[10:02] ---**
*I had no interest in becoming one.*
**[10:07] ---**
*I couldn't feel any reason why I should.*
**[10:14] ---**
*I didn't know what I wanted.*
**[10:19] ---**
*I didn't care what I did in the future.*
**[10:23] ---**
*But...*
**[10:25] ---**
Are you always going to be bored?
**[10:28] ---**
By the way, why did you join the U20, Rin?
**[10:39] ---**

No, thank you.
**[13:32] ---**
*Anjou and Okazaki are still fighting, huh?*
**[13:36] ---**
*Both of you, do your best.*
**[13:40] ---**
Here we have a fight with
four damage to five!
**[13:43] ---**
And her hand and field in
a pinch, Kumi Okazaki!
**[13:46] ---**
It's the seventh turn!
**[13:48] ---**
Can she turn this around?!
**[13:50] ---**

I did it! Tokoha, Enishi-chi, Jaime!
**[16:21] ---**
Amazing!
Kumi Okazaki made a huge comeback victory!
**[16:25] ---**
She gets a large amount of
points from Emi Sendou!
**[16:28] ---**
With this, if Tokoha Anjou
wins her current fight,
**[16:32] ---**
Jaime Flowers will clear the first stage!
**[16:36] ---**
That makes this fight
one that will determine their fate!
**[16:40] ---**
It's a fateful fight!
**[16:43] ---**
A fateful fight...
**[16:45] ---**
If I win this fight,
we can go to the second stage!
**[16:50] ---**
You won't get past me!

**[18:11] ---**
Her Rear-guards have 42,000 and 25,000.
**[18:15] ---**
This is great! I'm getting excited!
**[18:18] ---**
*When it's important, Rin is
always a tall wall in front of me.*
**[18:24] ---**
*So by overcoming this wall,*
**[18:27] ---**
*I might be able to take
a step into the future!*
**[18:30] ---**
*If I win against Rin, who's aiming to be a
Pro, I might be able to stand with Miguel!*
**[18:36] ---**
Activate Noel's Skill!
**[18:38] ---**
She can attack the Vanguard from the rear!
**[18:42] ---**
And one more!
**[18:46] ---**

**[18:52] ---**
*I want the power to step into the future!*
**[18:56] ---**
*I'll get this power

My body feels like it's on fire!*
**[19:04] ---**
Guard!
**[19:08] ---**
Yes! This heat is what I wanted!
**[19:11] ---**
This burning sensation!
**[19:13] ---**

**[19:16] ---**
More! Give me more!
**[19:19] ---**

The many fighters who have
already finished for the day
**[19:44] ---**
are also watching this fateful fight!
**[19:48] ---**
*It's strange.
I feel like I don't want to stop fighting.*
**[19:53] ---**
*I don't want to let this fight end.*
**[19:56] ---**
*However...*
**[19:58] ---**
We will go to the next stage!
**[20:02] ---**
Now a Rear-guard is attacking
her Vanguard from the rear!
**[20:09] ---**
Damage Check!
**[20:13] ---**
Activate Black Shiver, Gavrail's Skill!
**[20:16] ---**

Five damage! Just a little more, Tokoha!
**[20:30] ---**
Get her!
**[20:32] ---**
So close!
**[20:33] ---**
Any Trigger at all would
have blocked that attack!
**[20:39] ---**
This is the end!
**[20:43] ---**
Attack!
**[20:49] ---**
Don't get overconfident!
Not yet! I won't let it end yet!
**[21:03] ---**
It's over!
**[21:05] ---**
The winner of the
fateful fight is Tokoha Anjou!
**[21:08] ---**
Team Jaime Flowers
proceeds to the next stage!
**[21:12] ---**
Yahoo!
**[21:14] ---**
- Jaime! Where are you going?
- Crab! Crab! Crab!
**[21:22] ---**
Thank you!
**[21:29] ---**
Tokoha!
**[21:31] ---**
- Tokoha!
- You did it!
**[21:34] ---**
Everyone!
**[21:37] ---**
Hey, Kumi...
**[21:42] ---**
They beat us to it...
**[21:44] ---**
But we'll definitely be next.
**[21:52] ---**
Good work. It was a great fight.
**[21:56] ---**
There are two places left.
**[21:58] ---**
With Hashima-senpai's loss,
our points dropped all of a sudden.
**[22:03] ---**
And we had bad luck
matching with opponents
**[22:05] ---**
so me and Shion couldn't
gain any points either.
**[22:09] ---**
It's going to be difficult.
**[22:10] ---**
Yes.
**[22:11] ---**
But our objective hasn't changed.
**[22:15] ---**
And we will definitely make it happen.
**[22:19] ---**
All we must do is recover what was
stolen from us. With these hands!
**[23:56] ---**
We did it!
We're going to the second stage!
**[23:59] ---**
It's thanks to you, Kumi!
Thank you as well, Enishi!
**[24:02] ---**
I'm grateful to Jaime, too.
**[24:03] ---**
I am not Jaime!!
I'm the Masked Coach of Love and Justice!
**[24:07] ---**
Yes, yes. So you are.
**[24:09] ---**
Why don't we celebrate our victory
at my regular place?
**[24:14] ---**
Your regular place?
**[24:16] ---**
What kind of food do they serve?
**[24:17] ---**
Sushi? Ramen? Tempura?
Geisha Girl?
