[00:12] ---     Tokoha! We saw the whole thing! [00:15] ---     Passion for victory! [00:16] ---     Yeah! [00:17] ---     An unyielding heart! [00:18] ---     That's right! [00:18] ---     You were shining more than anyone! [00:21] ---     Tears don't become you! [00:23] ---     I'm not crying! [00:25] ---     Crying face, get outta here! [00:29] ---     You need team unity at a time like this! [00:32] ---     Come on, huddle up! [00:33] ---     Kumi... [00:34] ---     Huh? Huh? [00:37] ---     We're one person short. [00:38] ---     Where's Shion? [00:40] ---     He said he wanted to focus     on his own before the fight. [02:18] ---     If I can at least find out my     opponent's fighting style... SIGN    High Expectations for Team Demise! SIGN    On-the-spot Interview with Shouma Shinonome! SIGN    Team Demise Going to the Final Tournament with an Easy Victory [02:28] ---     Just superficial info... [02:30] ---     If I had time, I would've at least     checked the front-runners. [02:36] ---     The next match will begin in ten minutes. [02:39] ---     Fighters, please return     to your designated area. [02:40] [SONG] ---     Wish Fulfillment [02:41] ---     I'll win, no matter who I'm fighting. [02:43] ---     That's all! [02:48] ---     S-Sorry! [02:58] ---     I'm really sorry. [03:00] ---     I'll pay to have it cleaned. [03:02] ---     That's all right. It's cheap. [03:04] ---     But from now on, watch     where you walk a bit more. [03:08] ---     I will. [03:09] ---     I'm just giving you a hard time. [03:11] ---     You must've been thinking about     your fight, right, Shion Kiba? [03:15] ---     You could tell? [03:17] ---     I was thinking about it, too. [03:20] ---     I know I get nervous before a fight. [03:23] ---     You too, even though you've been     doing fencing since you were little? [03:29] ---     It must be tough balancing     Vanguard and fencing. [03:33] ---     It's all I can do just to     stay on top of Vanguard. [03:36] ---     No... [03:38] ---     And you're strong! [03:40] ---     Especially Blue Sky Knight, Altmile.     That's a great unit. [03:44] ---     It powers its comrades up,     then it pushes forward! [03:47] ---     That's totally your avatar. [03:50] ---     Getting to fight the scion of the Kiba family     is a chance that only comes around once. [03:55] ---     The best sixteen third match. [03:57] ---     Please go easy on me. [04:02] ---     Likewise. I'm looking forward to it. [04:07] ---     Well, see you at the fight. [04:13] ---     Even though I only know his name and face... [04:25] ---     Well played. SIGN    Turn 31 Shouma Shinonome [04:33] ---     What were you doin'?!     They're already starting! [04:37] ---     Sorry. I had a little trouble. [04:39] ---     Trouble? [04:40] ---     Nothing important. [04:43] ---     The next match is about to start. [04:47] ---     Calm down and get out there. [04:49] ---     Win it, 0 damage to 6! [04:52] ---     That's the only acceptable outcome! [04:54] ---     That's ridiculous! [04:57] ---     Well, I'm off. [05:00] ---     It's the endgame of the best sixteen battle! [05:04] ---     The teams that win this match     will go on to the best eight! [05:10] ---     Team TRY3, Shion Kiba! [05:13] ---     He's usually cool, calm, and collected     during matches, but how will he fight today? [05:18] ---     Versus Shouma Shinonome from Team Demise! [05:22] ---     He's also a cool, logical fighter. [05:25] ---     When these two similar types clash,     what will be the result? [05:35] ---     I've discarded the word "lose." [05:37] ---     I'm a Kiba! [05:40] ---     I will grasp victory! [05:42] [SONG] ---     Wish Fulfillment [05:45] ---     Kiba will go first! [05:47] ---     Which means Shinonome     will get to attack first. [05:49] ---     Which takes us to the stage of this     climactic battle, choosing the fight field! [05:55] ---     Shinonome, would you choose? [05:57] ---     Are you sure? [05:59] ---     It's not enough to serve as     an apology for before, but... [06:03] ---     Then I'll take you up on that and decide. [06:12] ---     And then there was light. [06:16] ---     United Sanctuary's Shrine of the Abyss. [06:21] ---     I wasn't expecting that! [06:22] ---     That was some performance! [06:24] ---     GIRS can even do stuff like that?! [06:30] ---     Stand up, Vanguard! [06:32] ---     Shining Knight, Millius! [06:35] ---     Fetter of Leather, Leyding! [06:38] ---     Genesis, huh? [06:39] ---     After everything I said,     it'd better not be a mediocre fight! [06:44] ---     I ride Battle Maiden, Mihikarihime! [06:48] ---     Leyding's skill. I move it back. [06:53] ---     The tried and true way is to call a unit     behind the Vanguard, then boost it. [06:58] ---     Does he have a card that can do a     more effective boost in his deck? [07:02] ---     Or... [07:06] ---     Mihikarihime attacks your Vanguard. [07:11] ---     I ride Absolute Blade Knight, Livarot! [07:14] ---     I call Knight of Fragment! [07:18] ---     Attack! [07:22] ---     I ride Battle Maiden, Izunahime. [07:25] ---     I call Battle Maiden, Sahohime. [07:29] ---     Attack. [07:35] ---     Guard! [07:37] ---     So far, both sides have 2 damage! [07:41] ---     But it feels like we're coming to the stage     where big things are going to happen! [07:44] ---     With your sword and my passion, I ride... [07:50] ---     ...Blue Sky Knight, Altmile! [07:53] ---     I call Livarot! [07:55] ---     Knight of Fragment attacks Sahohime! [07:58] ---     No guard. [08:02] ---     Altmile attacks your Vanguard! [08:05] ---     For the sake of our future! Sky Noble Thrust! [08:09] ---     Guard! [08:14] ---     Twin drive! [08:16] ---     Critical trigger! [08:17] ---     I give all of the effects to Livarot! [08:20] ---     Guard. [08:23] ---     Hey, are you serious? [08:26] ---     He blocked that one, too? [08:32] ---     Kiba has staged a vigorous attack, [08:34] ---     but Shinonome has displayed perfect defense! [08:37] ---     The turn ends without Kiba dealing     even a single damage point! [08:43] ---     He could tell what my attacks     were going to be beforehand! [09:08] ---     It can't be helped. [09:11] ---     You said there wasn't     enough time... this time. [09:15] ---     You even know that?! [09:16] ---     Of course. [09:18] ---     I'm sure you would've investigated me, too.     If only you'd had the time. [09:22] ---     Draw. [09:24] ---     Unleash it. Jaw of the wolf     that signals destruction. [09:28] ---     Ride! [09:29] ---     Mythic Beast, Fenrir! [09:32] ---     Generation Zone... release! [09:45] ---     Deliver final judgment in the     world of evening twilight! [09:49] ---     Stride Generation! [10:01] ---     Great Angel... [10:04] ---     ...Doom Brace! [10:07] ---     Stride skill! [10:09] ---     Doom Brace Soul-Charges.      I call Witch of Ravens, Chamomile. [10:14] ---     Skill activated! [10:20] ---     Doom Brace Soul-Charges. [10:22] ---     On top of that, I superior call Chamomile. [10:26] ---     This is amazing! [10:28] ---     While powering up his rear-guards, [10:31] ---     he replenished the Soul again      with Doom Brace's ability! [10:35] ---     What's more, a unit that was shot out of     the Soul returned to a rear-guard position! [10:41] ---     If he can replenish the Soul     every time with the cards he's used, [10:45] ---     he can keep using the skill,     and it won't run out. [10:47] ---     Plus, even the units will return to him! [10:49] ---     If this continues with every turn... [10:52] ---     But Kiba's not powerless! [10:57] ---     Doom Brace attacks! [11:03] ---     A commoner like me wouldn't know, [11:06] ---     but I'm guessing this is hard on you. [11:10] ---     Being the scion of the Kiba family. [11:15] ---     Triple drive. [11:18] ---     Double critical trigger. [11:25] ---     Damage check! [11:28] ---     Heal trigger! [11:34] ---     I won't make any excuses! [11:35] ---     Everyone's busy in their own way! [11:38] ---     How humble of you. [11:40] ---     I'm sure that's why you've gotten this far. [11:43] ---     I sincerely respect you. [11:46] ---     Chamomile attacks! [11:47] ---     Guard! [11:53] ---     But it's odd... [11:55] ---     The heir of the Kiba family and a fencer... [11:58] ---     I would think that'd be tough enough.     What made you choose Vanguard, too? [12:06] ---     Vanguard is the only thing     that I grabbed myself. [12:11] ---     A world that I carved out for myself. [12:14] ---     It's special. [12:17] ---     I won't make any excuses. [12:18] ---     I'm going to grasp victory for myself! [12:25] ---     Generation Zone... release! [12:40] ---     Soaring combo attack! I grasp the infinite future! [12:44] ---     Stride Generation! [12:55] ---     Divine Knight of Flashing Flame, Samuel! [12:58] ---     I superior call Starlight Violinist     and Knight of Shield Bash! [13:03] ---     I add +5000 power to Shield Bash and Livarot! [13:08] ---     I call Knight of Twin Sword with     Starlight Violinist's skill! [13:13] ---     There it is!     This is Royal Paladin at its best! [13:18] ---     When a comrade is in danger,     the knights all rally round! [13:22] ---     All right! [13:22] ---     Now he can use Samuel's skill, too! [13:25] ---     Samuel attacks your Vanguard! [13:27] ---     With five or more rear-guards,     its skill activates, [13:30] ---     giving 1 damage to your Vanguard! [13:37] ---     You're taking everything, huh? [13:39] ---     You impress me. [13:43] ---     But still... [13:45] ---     Piercing flash! Bright lightning shoot! [13:50] ---     Perfect guard. [13:53] ---     Is it even possible? With that     kind of half-hearted attack? [13:58] ---     Knight of Twin Sword attacks your Vanguard! [14:01] ---     Guard. [14:04] ---     Oh, my! In this turn, [14:07] ---     even Kiba's surging onslaught [14:09] ---     only did 1 damage, and that was with a skill! [14:14] ---     I don't believe this... [14:16] ---     But his opponent used up     all the cards in his hand, [14:19] ---     and he doesn't have many rear-guards! [14:26] ---     In actual fact,     you've realized it for a while, right? [14:30] ---     You can't beat me. [14:33] ---     Stride Generation. [14:35] ---     Great Angel... [14:38] ---     ...Doom Brace! [14:40] ---     Skill activated! [14:43] ---     Shinonome! [14:45] ---     He's powered up his rear-guards     again with Doombrace! [14:49] ---     Not only that! The units that     shot back out of the Soul [14:53] ---     went back to him yet again with a skill! [14:57] ---     This is my favorite thing at the moment. [15:00] ---     I use this at big tournaments. Always. [15:05] ---     If I'd only had that information,     I could've prepared a counter-measure! [15:09] ---     Doom Brace attacks your Vanguard. [15:12] ---     Perfect guard! [15:13] ---     Triple drive. [15:16] ---     Critical trigger. I give     the effects to Chamomile. [15:21] ---     Chamomile attacks your Vanguard! [15:24] ---     Guard! [15:27] ---     Chamomile attacks your Vanguard. [15:31] ---     No guard! [15:36] ---     I don't blame you. You were busy, right? [15:39] ---     You didn't prepare enough this time. [15:43] ---     That's not true! [15:44] ---     That's 5 damage! [15:47] ---     Hey, what's wrong with Shion? [15:50] ---     What are you doing?! [15:52] ---     This isn't like you at all! [15:55] ---     Get your head on straight!     Take this fight back! [15:58] ---     We're goin' to the top together, aren't we?! [16:02] ---     Chrono Shindou, is it? [16:05] ---     He made remarkable progress     after forming a team with you. [16:10] ---     He easily beat my teammate. [16:14] ---     I'm sure he'll get even stronger. [16:16] ---     Because he can bet everything on Vanguard. [16:34] ---     No. [16:36] ---     I won't make excuses. I... [16:39] ---     It's simple. [16:41] ---     All you have to do is believe     in your own possibilities. [16:48] ---     I'll grab hold of everything! I'm Shion Kiba! [16:52] ---     Stride generation! [16:55] ---     Holy Dragon, Saint Blow Dragon! [16:59] ---     With Altmile's stride skill,     two rear-guard units get +5000 power! [17:04] ---     Millius's skill calls Knight of Twin Sword! [17:08] ---     And I call Laurel Knight, Sicilus! [17:11] ---     Kiba uses a skill [17:14] ---     to replenish his lost rear-guards! [17:17] ---     Saint Blow Dragon's skill activated! [17:20] ---     +12000 power and an extra critical! [17:24] ---     That's it! That's your fight, Kiba! [17:27] ---     He knows his opponent's hand     because of the trigger checks! [17:30] ---     His opponent can't guard against this attack! [17:32] ---     I've thrown away the word "lose"! [17:35] ---     Saint Blow Dragon attacks your Vanguard! [17:40] ---     Triple drive! [17:41] ---     It's Kiba's fateful drive check! [17:45] ---     If he draws even one critical trigger,     it'll be a comeback victory! [17:48] ---     I know you can draw it! [17:53] ---     You are gonna draw it! [17:57] ---     Just as with Vanguard, the person who has     the strongest feelings wins at the end. [18:01] ---     I'm gonna draw it! [18:06] ---     No trigger! [18:11] ---     Or with the second card! [18:12] ---     All right, the fateful third card! [18:20] ---     Is there a trigger mark? No! [18:27] ---     Starlight Violinist attacks! [18:29] ---     Guard. [18:32] ---     Knight of Twin Sword attacks! [18:34] ---     Guard. [18:39] ---     Oh, no... [18:43] ---     This was your last turn. [18:57] ---     Too bad. [19:02] ---     So this is your level, huh? [19:06] ---     Your Vanguard. [19:20] ---     That's the game! [19:23] ---     The winner is Shouma Shinonome! [19:27] ---     The fight count is two matches to one! [19:29] ---     The winner of the first battle of the best sixteen... [19:32] ---     ...is Team Demise! [19:39] [SONG] ---     Wish Fulfillment [19:45] ---     It's all my fault. I'm sorry. [19:49] ---     Stop. [19:50] ---     I'm the one who lost first! [19:53] ---     It's not anybody's fault. [19:56] ---     We're a team, right? [20:05] ---     Hey, Kiba! Where are you goin'?! [20:08] ---     Jeez! [20:20] ---     A fight reveals everything about a person. [20:24] ---     The result before you     is your team's current "everything." [20:40] ---     I'm impressed. [20:42] ---     That's your favorite shirt, isn't it? [20:47] ---     An opponent that needed you to go that far? [20:50] ---     How do you think one can keep a bird     from the heavens in a basket? [20:56] ---     You clip its wings. [21:00] ---     I look forward to meeting him again. [21:13] ---     Of course they made the best eight. [21:16] ---     They carried the name of United Sanctuary     into battle with them, [21:20] ---     so losing even one battle     shall not be tolerated. [21:30] ---     Gear Chronicle... [21:32] ---     I see... [21:34] ---     He's the only one who won. [21:37] ---     The one who will carve out the future.     The legend who will change the world. [21:42] ---     If he has power, he will     stand before me eventually. [21:47] ---     And when that happens... [23:26] ---     Chrono! [23:28] ---     Kamui! Where have you been?! [23:32] ---     Sorry. Something came up. [23:35] ---     I just got to see the end of that last match. [23:38] ---     Um... [23:41] ---     I won't let it end here. [23:43] [SONG] ---     Wish Fulfillment [23:43] ---     I'm not gonna let it end! [23:46] ---     Not this way! [23:56] ---     Darn it! We lost! [23:59] ---     That's too bad. [24:00] ---     But Team Demise, was it? To be honest,     they're at a different level. [24:05] ---     True. Anjou and Kiba's opponents     were especially strong. [24:09] ---     But I have no intention of     letting it end here for us. [24:13] ---     That's the spirit! [24:15] ---     But I'm a little worried     about Tokoha and Shion. [24:19] ---     Yeah. They helped me before.     Now it's my turn. SIGN    Beginning of a Long Summer
