[00:12] ---
    Thank you for the meal.
[00:13] ---
    On to our next story.
[00:14] ---
    Ryuzu Myoujin, the honorable chairman
    of the Vanguard Association, has died.
SIGN    Ryuzu Myoujin Has Died
[00:21] ---
    Myoujin was the founder of
    the Vanguard Association.
[00:25] ---
    He made a huge contribution to the promotion
    and development of Vanguard's culture.
[00:29] ---
    However, recently,
    he had been out of the public eye.
[00:34] ---
    May his soul rest in peace.
[02:09] ---
    I'm in Class A!
[02:12] ---
    The same homeroom teacher?!
[02:17] ---
    There I am! Class B!
[02:19] ---
    Me, too!
[02:21] ---
    All right! We get to stay together!
[02:24] ---
    How about you, Chrono?
[02:26] ---
    I'm in B, too.
[02:27] ---
    Yeah!
[02:28] ---
    Hi. I'm in the same class, too.
[02:31] ---
    Then we're all together as third-years!
SIGN    Turn 28 Ryuzu Myoujin
[02:45] ---
    Ryuzu's death was on the news this morning.
[02:48] ---
    I saw it, too.
[02:54] ---
    Ryuzu Myoujin is dead.
[02:56] ---
    But it's not like that solves the problem.
[02:59] ---
    No, it doesn't.
[03:00] ---
    In fact, we've got a
    massive task ahead of us.
[03:06] ---
    Ryuzu said something strange.
[03:10] ---
    When the twelve Depend Cards are gathered,
    the Stride Gate will be opened.
[03:15] ---
    He said that would let him lead
    the world to a perfect future.
[03:22] ---
    Ryuzu died, but his will is being carried on by a
    group of people who call themselves the Company.
[03:28] ---
    Satoru Enishi.
[03:30] ---
    Hiroki Moriyama.
[03:32] ---
    Sousuke Wakamizu.
[03:34] ---
    Shouma Shinonome.
[03:37] ---
    Enishi, the Dark Zone Branch Chief,
    has disappeared.
[03:41] ---
    Apparently, the staff of that branch
    can't be reached, either.
[03:44] ---
    I see...
[03:46] ---
    Ryuzu was trying to use the power of the
    twelve summoned units to open the Stride Gate
[03:51] ---
    and realize a perfect world here.
[03:54] ---
    I wonder just what would've happened
[03:57] ---
    if that had become a reality.
[04:00] ---
    I don't know.
[04:01] ---
    But I have no doubt it would've exposed
    the world to unprecedented danger.
[04:07] ---
    Right now, Chris is examining Ryuzu's lab.
[04:11] ---
    But most of the data has been deleted,
[04:15] ---
    and it seems he'll need
    a lot of time to retrieve it.
[04:19] ---
    The Company has the final Depend Card.
[04:23] ---
    No matter what, we have to find out
    where they are and where the other units
[04:28] ---
    were sent before the final one is awakened.
[04:32] ---
    Suzugamori, Katsuragi,
     and the others are already on it.
[04:36] ---
    Kai flew to Europe.
[04:38] ---
    Our comrades are all pursuing the Company
    in their own bases of operation.
[04:43] ---
    We will track them down, no matter
    where in the world they're hiding!
[04:49] ---
    I'll carry out the role that was given to me.
[04:53] ---
    I'll clear out the fraud and corruption
    that Ryuzu left behind.
[04:55] ---
    I'll transform the Association into
    the organization it should be.
[05:03] ---
    First, we'll need to hold a meeting
    for all the branch chiefs.
[05:06] ---
    After that, trace the flow of funds
    that were misappropriated...
[05:10] ---
    "For though a righteous man falls
    seven times, he rises again."
[05:17] ---
    Even if a righteous man falls down
    seven times, he'll get up again.
[05:21] ---
    But what does it mean here?
[05:23] ---
    Those were Ryuzu's last words.
[05:25] ---
    It's like a prophecy.
[05:29] ---
    A prophecy...
[05:32] ---
    Shouma Shinonome. A former fighter
    with the United Sanctuary Branch.
[05:37] ---
    I want to know what he's been up to
    for the past six months.
[05:41] ---
    His current movements, too.
    I don't think it'll be easy, but...
[05:46] ---
    I'll do it.
[05:47] ---
    Since it's come to this, I'm with you
    through thick and thin, man.
[05:57] ---
    The phone you are trying to reach is either
    turned off or out of the service area.
[06:03] ---
    No good here. How about you, Kumi?
[06:06] ---
    The same. I'm not getting
    any replies to my e-mails.
[06:11] ---
    I see...
[06:13] ---
    We haven't been able to get
    ahold of Luna and Am at all.
[06:17] ---
    Maybe it's because they're busy
    with their idol work.
[06:21] ---
    Now that G Quest is over,
    the next project is about to begin.
[06:26] ---
    The challenge is moving to a new stage.
    I want you to work harder than ever before.
[06:30] ---
    Sure!
[06:38] ---
    That was fast.
[06:41] ---
    I have a favor to ask.
[06:42] ---
    What is it?
[06:44] ---
    I want Luna to work only as an idol.
[06:46] ---
    Don't talk to her about the secret project!
[06:49] ---
    I'll take care of that.
[06:51] ---
    So you don't need her.
[06:56] ---
    Don't get Luna involved!
[07:00] ---
    If you show me results,
    Luna Yumizuki won't have to do anything.
[07:04] ---
    It all depends on your efforts.
[07:10] ---
    Um...
[07:11] ---
    Can't I see my friends?
[07:15] ---
    This is a top secret project.
    Please understand.
[07:19] ---
    But I've even been forbidden
    from contacting them for so long now...
[07:23] ---
    It's because information
    could leak from anywhere.
[07:26] ---
    It's not as though I don't trust you two.
[07:29] ---
    But I want to be extremely cautious.
[07:31] ---
    Really? I understand.
SIGN    Welcome to Dragon Empire Branch
[07:56] ---
    Vanguard really is fun.
[08:47] ---
    Chrono! What's up?
[08:49] ---
    Um...
[08:51] ---
    Nothing, really...
[08:55] ---
    ...but I just felt like fighting you.
[08:57] ---
    Do you have time now?
[08:59] ---
    Sure.
[09:01] ---
    Sorry to call you on such short notice.
[09:04] ---
    I see. Okay, then I'll be waiting.
[09:10] ---
    It really is him!
[09:12] ---
    I'd know that hairstyle anywhere!
[09:14] ---
    Chrono Shindou, a Generation Master!
[09:16] ---
    The real thing!
[09:18] ---
    G Quest was amazing!
[09:19] ---
    I watched you the whole time!
[09:21] ---
    Th-Thanks...
[09:23] ---
    Please fight me!
[09:24] ---
    Me, too!
[09:25] ---
    Me three!
[09:26] ---
    Fight me, please!
[09:27] ---
    And me!
[09:28] ---
    Fight me!
[09:29] ---
    Fight me and my Dark Irregular deck!
[09:31] ---
    Look, I've got somethin' to do...
[09:35] ---
    Please!
[09:36] ---
    I... I'm sorry!
[09:57] ---
    Do you know why
    cherry blossoms are so beautiful?
[10:04] ---
    A corpse is buried under the cherry tree.
[10:12] ---
    That's from a novel written long ago.
[10:17] ---
    The tree drinks the corpse's blood,
    which gives the flowers a beautiful color.
[10:26] ---
    Let's fight, Chrono Shindou.
[10:30] ---
    Nah, I gotta...
[10:34] ---
    Gear Chronicle... You use Gear Chronicle?
[10:38] ---
    Yeah.
[10:42] ---
    There's still time before
    Taiyou will get here...
[10:45] ---
    Sure. Let's fight.
[11:02] ---
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[11:05] ---
    Gunnergear Dracokid!
[11:08] ---
    Chrono Dran!
[11:12] ---
    Chrono Dran...
[11:16] ---
    I ride Masergear Dragon!
[11:19] ---
    Gunnergear moves back!
[11:22] ---
    I ride Timebreak Dragon!
[11:24] ---
    Chrono Dran moves back!
[11:26] ---
    I call Steam Breath Dragon
    and Heart Thump Worker!
[11:30] ---
    Timebreak attacks Masergear!
[11:33] ---
    No guard.
[11:37] ---
    Steam Breath attacks your Vanguard!
[11:40] ---
    Guard!
[11:44] ---
    You guarded against that, huh? Not bad.
[11:48] ---
    Turn end.
[11:50] ---
    Stand and draw.
[11:52] ---
    I ride Smokegear Dragon!
[11:55] ---
    I call two Upstream Dragon units!
[11:58] ---
    Upstream attacks your rear-guard!
[12:05] ---
    Smokegear attacks your Vanguard!
[12:09] ---
    No guard.
[12:10] ---
    Drive check.
[12:15] ---
    I like Vanguard.
[12:17] ---
    Unlike barbaric violence,
[12:19] ---
    you can resolve things
    rationally and logically.
[12:26] ---
    You see, I hate violence.
[12:36] ---
    Upstream attacks your Vanguard.
[12:39] ---
    Guard!
[12:45] ---
    If everyone could live by following
[12:47] ---
    rational judgments and precise results,
     as one does in Vanguard,
[12:52] ---
    the world would change.
    Don't you agree?
[12:57] ---
    What's with this guy?
    Even though he's a kid...
[13:01] ---
    I ride History-maker Dragon!
[13:05] ---
    I call Upstream!
[13:07] ---
    Heart Thump Worker boosts!
[13:09] ---
    Upstream attacks your Vanguard!
[13:12] ---
    Guard.
[13:18] ---
    What he was saying,
    they're like the same words...
[13:22] ---
    ...that he said...
[13:26] ---
    What's wrong?
[13:28] ---
    Nothin'. I'll continue.
[13:30] ---
    History-maker attacks your Vanguard!
[13:33] ---
    No guard.
[13:35] ---
    Drive check!
[13:36] ---
    I got a critical trigger!
[13:39] ---
    I give all of the effects to History-maker!
[13:48] ---
    His eyes look like his eyes...
[13:52] ---
    That's right. The world
    will change through Vanguard.
[14:00] ---
    That's why I created the
    Vanguard Association.
[14:13] ---
    To lead the world to a perfect future...
[14:19] ---
    Who are you?!
[14:24] ---
    Lead the perfect future to this land!
[14:27] ---
    I ride Chronofang Tiger!
[14:35] ---
    Chronofang... Tiger?!
[14:38] ---
    Upstream attacks your rear-guard.
[14:44] ---
    Chronofang Tiger attacks your Vanguard!
[14:48] ---
    No guard!
[14:49] ---
    Twin drive.
[14:51] ---
    I got a critical trigger.
[14:54] ---
    I give the power to Upstream,
     and the extra critical to Chronofang Tiger!
[15:08] ---
    Upstream attacks your Vanguard.
[15:12] ---
    Guard!
[15:20] ---
    Turn end.
[15:23] ---
    Who the heck are you?
[15:27] ---
    I'm Ryuzu. Ryuzu Myoujin.
[15:32] ---
    What are you talkin' about?!
[15:37] ---
    When one summons a unit,
[15:39] ---
    there are side effects from
    warping time and space,
[15:43] ---
    side effects that cause
    serious damage to one's body.
[15:46] ---
    I learned that after
    summoning the first unit.
[15:50] ---
    I learned it firsthand.
[15:54] ---
    My body couldn't withstand the
    summoning of the remaining units.
[15:59] ---
    So what should I have done?
[16:03] ---
    I thought and eventually
    came up with a solution.
[16:07] ---
    I realized that I should
    just prepare a new body.
[16:13] ---
    Then I transferred all of
    my intellect and memories...
[16:19] ---
    ...into this...
[16:22] ---
    ...my clone body.
[16:25] ---
    I have been reborn as the new Ryuzu Myoujin!
[16:31] ---
    L-Like I believe that!
[16:35] ---
    I told you, remember?
[16:38] ---
    "For though a righteous man falls
    seven times, he rises again."
[16:47] ---
    "He rises again..."
[16:58] ---
    Chronojet Dragon!
[17:01] ---
    Stride Generation!
[17:03] ---
    Interdimensional Beast, Metallica Phoenix!
[17:07] ---
    Chronojet's Stride skill!
[17:09] ---
    I return one of your Upstream units
    to the bottom of the deck!
[17:12] ---
    I call Balih! Balih attacks your Vanguard!
[17:16] ---
    Intercept.
[17:21] ---
    Metallica Phoenix attacks your Vanguard!
[17:25] ---
    Heart Thump Worker's skill!
[17:27] ---
    I send it to the Soul and draw one card!
[17:29] ---
    +5000 power!
[17:31] ---
    On top of that, Metallica Phoenix's
    skill is activated!
[17:35] ---
    Chrono Dran does a Time Leap!
[17:38] ---
    I superior call Steam Worker, Etana!
[17:41] ---
    Then I superior call Chronojet
    with Chrono Dran's skill!
[17:45] ---
    No guard.
[17:47] ---
    Triple drive!
[17:48] ---
    I got a critical trigger!
[17:51] ---
    I give all of the effects
    to Metallica Phoenix!
[18:08] ---
    If Vanguard is the truth
    that governs the world,
[18:12] ---
    the world will announce
    the results of the outcome.
[18:15] ---
    It's like an absolute oracle.
[18:19] ---
    In other words, it's righteousness
    dictated by destiny.
[18:24] ---
    Etana boosts!
[18:25] ---
    Chronojet attacks your Vanguard!
[18:28] ---
    Put simply, when one wins at Vanguard,
[18:31] ---
    it means the world has given
    justice to the winner.
[18:37] ---
    Generation Guard.
[18:39] ---
    Retroactive Time Maiden, Uluru.
[18:44] ---
    With its skill, +5000 shield!
[18:48] ---
    Therefore, the loser is given punishment
[18:51] ---
    as administered by the winner,
    who was bequeathed the power of justice.
[18:55] ---
    A fight is a trial.
[18:56] ---
    It is a tribunal, and the results
    produced there are the judgment.
[19:02] ---
    Turn end...
[19:03] ---
    Heaven's net has a wide mesh,
    but nothing escapes it.
[19:06] ---
    Rise above it!
[19:12] ---
    Interdimensional Dragon, Bind Time Dragon!
[19:20] ---
    Bind Time Dragon?!
[19:24] ---
    Gunnergear's skill.
[19:25] ---
    I take one grade 3 from my deck
    and put it into my hand.
[19:30] ---
    I call Gear Eagle! I call Nanneya!
[19:33] ---
    I call one more Gear Eagle!
[19:35] ---
    I attack your Vanguard.
[19:38] ---
    Guard!
[19:40] ---
    Nanneya boosts.
[19:41] ---
    Bind Time Dragon attacks your Vanguard!
[19:45] ---
    Bind Time's Generation Break!
[19:48] ---
    I bind Gear Eagle.
[19:50] ---
    Bind Time gets +10000 power
[19:53] ---
    and an extra critical.
[19:54] ---
    Plus, for every card in the Bind Zone,
[19:57] ---
    my opponent has to put one of his own
    rear-guards at the bottom of the deck.
[20:04] ---
    Nanneya's skill.
[20:06] ---
    Nanneya gets +4000 power!
[20:08] ---
    A t-total of 46000!
[20:13] ---
    No guard.
[20:15] ---
    With the power of Gear Chronicle's
    Zodiac Time Beasts,
[20:19] ---
    I wish to lead this world
    to a perfect, happy future,
[20:23] ---
    one devoid of conflict and hatred.
[20:29] ---
    Unfortunately, there are those
    who oppose me without even trying
[20:34] ---
    to comprehend my ideal.
[20:39] ---
    I'm sure judgment shall
    fall upon them shortly.
[20:42] ---
    Not my judgment.
[20:44] ---
    Vanguard will judge them for their errors.
[20:49] ---
    There's one more thing
     I want to tell you, as well.
[20:53] ---
    This is an issue that affects you, too.
[20:56] ---
    It's about your father, Rive Shindou.
[21:01] ---
    It seems you think he's dead,
[21:04] ---
    but Rive is very much alive.
[21:07] ---
    Rive Shindou is alive.
[21:12] ---
    Of course, Kouji Ibuki, whom you've been
    working with, is well aware of this.
[21:19] ---
    Rive told Ibuki all about our connection,
[21:23] ---
    and that's what got him started.
[21:29] ---
    You haven't heard any of this before?
[21:32] ---
    I wonder why.
[21:34] ---
    My dad... is alive...
[21:43] ---
    I see. You don't remember anything.
[21:49] ---
    Chrono!
[21:53] ---
    Chrono?
[21:55] ---
    I just want to make
    this world a better place.
[21:58] ---
    There's no reason for us to be enemies.
[22:03] ---
    Chrono Shindou, if you truly seek the future,
[22:08] ---
    you should come to me.
[22:12] ---
    I'll be waiting.
[23:55] ---
    They didn't tell you anything about Rive?
[23:59] ---
    I wonder why.
[24:01] ---
    My dad is alive...?
[24:04] ---
    I... I can't believe it!
[24:05] ---
    If you don't want to believe it, be my guest.
[24:09] ---
    You have that freedom.
[24:11] ---
    What... What should I do?
[24:15] ---
    Very soon, my dearest wish will be realized.
[24:19] ---
    Chrono, will you come with me?
