**[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?
