**[00:04] ---**
It's the second day of the
second stage today.
**[00:06] ---**
So far, everything has gone to plan.
**[00:08] ---**
There isn't much time
before the final stage!
**[00:11] ---**
Alright!
Fukuhara high school Vanguard Club!
**[00:14] ---**
Fight! Yeah!
**[00:18] ---**
Um...I was trying to reduce the tension!
I am the president after all!
**[00:23] ---**
Annoying! You're just saying empty words.
**[00:27] ---**
Our whole team has survived so far,
**[00:31] ---**
but Jaime Flowers were
eliminated on the first day.
**[00:36] ---**
The Striders have only
Chrono left as well.
**[00:39] ---**
They were all defeated by Team Diffrider.
**[00:44] ---**
It seems our decision
to avoid them was correct.
**[00:48] ---**
Are you alright with that, Shion?
**[00:50] ---**
With not fighting the way you
really want to, today as well?
**[00:56] ---**
It's for Fukuhara.
**[00:58] ---**
But then you'll-
**[01:00] ---**
*Five minutes before Castle Royale begins.*
**[01:03] ---**
*Fighters, please enter the second floor.*
**[01:07] ---**
It's time.
**[01:09] ---**
Stay focused today as well.
**[02:52] ---**
*Now! The door to the
third floor has finally opened!*
**[02:58] ---**
*It's the second day
of the U20's Castle Royale!*
**[03:02] ---**
*As the name suggests,
it's a life or death survival game!*
**[03:05] ---**
*Which teams will reach
the top floor of the castle*
**[03:10] ---**
*and proceed to the final stage?*
**[03:13] ---**
*I can't afford to lose!*
**[03:18] ---**
*But...*
**[03:19] ---**
*I want to keep running with
you guys to the end of the U20!*
**[03:24] ---**
*Please, Kazuma!*
**[03:26] ---**
*Please watch my fights tomorrow!*
**[03:31] ---**
*Please watch me, Taiyou, Kazuma.*
**[03:39] ---**
Kazuma!
**[03:41] ---**
I'm glad you came.

**[03:57] ---**
*Will the fierce fights continue to heat up?
We're looking forward to finding out!*
**[04:10] ---**
*From Magallanica, it's the slightly
mischievous Mermaid Princess!*
**[04:14] ---**
*Saya Yatomi!*
**[04:16] ---**
*Opposite her, the arrow of destiny
will pierce through victory.*
**[04:19] ---**
*The undefeated, beautiful fighter,
Verno Fahrenheart!*
**[04:24] ---**
*This is an important fight for Saya Yatomi,
with her team's survival at risk!*
**[04:28] ---**
*However, she's at five damage
and has nowhere to run!*
**[04:32] ---**
Play a melody of harmony
with me and my smile!
**[04:37] ---**
*What's with this girl?*
**[04:40] ---**
It wasn't enough! But I won't give up!
**[04:47] ---**
*She's losing, so how can she be so happy?*
**[04:51] ---**
*I don't understand.*
**[05:00] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:03] ---**
I lost but thanks to you,
I had a very fun fight!
**[05:08] ---**
Fun? Even though you lost?
**[05:11] ---**
If you put everything into a fight,
it's fun whether you win or lose!
**[05:16] ---**
The fighters and everyone
watching are surely smiling!
**[05:20] ---**
I guarantee it!
**[05:23] ---**
*I still don't understand how
she can smile after losing.*
**[05:27] ---**
*Humans are mysterious.*
**[05:33] ---**
Attack Vanguard.
**[05:39] ---**
What's wrong with you?
**[05:41] ---**
I have a reason why
I can't afford to lose.
**[05:44] ---**
Attack Vanguard!
**[05:49] ---**
*Shion...Is this really okay?*
**[05:53] ---**
*Your U20...*
**[05:56] ---**
*V-Verno Fahrenheart?!*
**[05:58] ---**
*From Team Diffrider!*
**[06:06] ---**
*But I can't hope to win
against her as I am now...*
**[06:10] ---**
*They were all defeated by Team Diffrider.*
**[06:13] ---**
*It's for Fukuhara.*
**[06:16] ---**
*I...*
**[06:18] ---**
*Vanguard is the only thing
that makes me free.*
**[06:24] ---**
Team Diffrider, Verno Fahrenheart!
**[06:28] ---**
You are?
**[06:29] ---**
I'm Fukuhara high school
Vanguard Club's Henri Hayao!
**[06:34] ---**
Please...
**[06:35] ---**
Please fight me!
**[06:40] ---**
*As expected of Fukuhara's noble youth!*
**[06:42] ---**
*He seized victory with his
calculated fighting style!*
**[06:46] ---**
*And now the gate to the
fourth floor has opened!*
**[06:52] ---**
*Fighters, please proceed to the
fourth floor within the time limit.*
**[06:57] ---**
Alright.
**[07:01] ---**
Why?!
**[07:06] ---**
*What is this?!*
**[07:07] ---**
*Fukuhara high school Vanguard Club,
who haven't lost once in the second stage*
**[07:11] ---**
*have just made a huge gamble!*
**[07:15] ---**
You've got to be kidding!
**[07:20] ---**
*The challenger is the president,
Henri Hayao!*
**[07:24] ---**
*His opponent is Verno Farhrenheart
who hasn't lost a single time!*
**[07:29] ---**
Stand Up!
**[07:31] ---**
Vanguard!
**[07:41] ---**
*It no longer matters who comes.*
**[07:45] ---**
*Liberation from Destiny...*
**[07:47] ---**
*I will take control of this tournament
so that my desire can come true.*
**[07:52] ---**
*That's all there is to it.*
**[08:08] ---**
Ninnil...
**[08:10] ---**
Attack Vanguard!
**[08:14] ---**
Turn End.
**[08:16] ---**
*It's the end of the fifth turn
and the current damage is...*
**[08:18] ---**
*Verno Fahrenheart has two damage
and Henri Hayao has three!*
**[08:22] ---**
*How will this fight against a Diffrider
develop from the sixth turn?*
**[08:30] ---**
Ride! Dragonic Vanquisher!
**[08:34] ---**
*I might be scolded by everyone later*
**[08:37] ---**
*but I don't mind!*
**[08:38] ---**
*I want Shion to play his own Vanguard!*
**[08:43] ---**
*And to lead Fukuhara to victory...*
**[08:46] ---**
*I have to...*
**[08:48] ---**
Give it my all!

**[13:22] ---**
The same Skill activates.
**[13:24] ---**

**[13:48] ---**
It's over already.
**[13:50] ---**
*Verno Fahrenheart...*
**[13:52] ---**
*It's the perfect fighting style.*
**[13:55] ---**
*I should have listened to Shion
and never challenged Team Diffrider!*
**[14:01] ---**
*Annoying! You're just saying empty words.*
**[14:05] ---**
*No! I won't let it end like this!*
**[14:08] ---**
*I'm not the same as I was before!*
**[14:10] ---**
*The weak me...*
**[14:12] ---**
*Shion changed me!*
**[14:15] ---**
*It's all...*
**[14:17] ---**
*It's all!*
**[14:19] ---**
*It's all thanks to Shion!*
**[14:21] ---**
*I always depended on Shion!*
**[14:26] ---**
*That badge is fitting for you.*
**[14:30] ---**
*Now it's my turn to push Shion
from behind as the President!*
**[14:35] ---**
*Don't fear!*
**[14:37] ---**
*Stand up!*
**[14:39] ---**
*That's the Fukuhara
Vanguard I want to see!*
**[14:43] ---**
Come!
**[14:44] ---**
I'm Fukuhara's President, Henri Hayao!
**[14:49] ---**
*This feeling!*
**[14:52] ---**
You'll show me now.
**[14:54] ---**
Whether the answer I have been
looking for is inside of you.
**[14:58] ---**
Kotonoha!
**[15:00] ---**
*Don't run away!*
**[15:07] ---**
*Stand up!*
**[15:10] ---**
Don't fear losing anything!
**[15:13] ---**
Generation Guard!
**[15:14] ---**
Sky Guardian Supreme Dragon,
Bulwark Dragon!
**[15:17] ---**
Add 10,000 to the Shield with a Skill!
**[15:23] ---**
This light!
**[15:26] ---**
I'll definitely protect them!
**[15:27] ---**
Shion's Vanguard! And Fukuhara's Vanguard!
**[15:31] ---**
As their President!
**[15:34] ---**
I see.
**[15:35] ---**
This is-
**[15:40] ---**
Somehow...I did it.
**[15:42] ---**
Hayao-senpai!
**[15:45] ---**
Go! Shion!
**[15:47] ---**
Eh?
**[15:49] ---**
Go!
**[15:50] ---**
I'll definitely protect
Fukuhara's Vanguard!
**[15:54] ---**
So you need to protect your own Vanguard!
**[15:59] ---**
Isn't Vanguard something
that makes you free?
**[16:04] ---**
Right now you're not free at all.
You're chained by your Vanguard!
**[16:11] ---**
There's someone you want to fight.
**[16:13] ---**
Then you can't run away from yourself!
**[16:16] ---**
I was always being saved by you.
**[16:20] ---**
So now it's my turn to save you.
**[16:23] ---**
Hayao-senpai...
**[16:27] ---**
Go! Shion Kiba!
**[16:29] ---**
This is a President's order!
**[16:33] ---**
Yes!
**[16:38] ---**
*That's right. That's how it should be.*
**[16:41] ---**
*That's the Shion I know.*
**[16:43] ---**
He is?
**[16:44] ---**
Yes.
**[16:45] ---**
He's my precious friend.
**[16:50] ---**
Friend...
**[16:52] ---**
Vanguard is something that
connects people and hearts.
**[16:57] ---**
I'll prove that to you now.
**[17:01] ---**
Stand and Draw!
**[17:07] ---**
Come!
**[17:08] ---**
Here I go!
**[17:10] ---**
Stride Generation!
**[17:14] ---**
Conquering Supreme Dragon,
Dragonic Vanquisher "VMAX"!
**[17:20] ---**
Magnificent!
**[17:22] ---**
Stride Skill!
**[17:24] ---**
Retreat the right-hand
Kotonoha and Bind it!
**[17:28] ---**
Call Martial Arts!
**[17:29] ---**
Thunderstrike! Add 3000 Power!
**[17:33] ---**
Attack Vanguard, Kukurihime and Awanami
at the same time with "VMAX"!
**[17:46] ---**
What a strong light!
**[17:49] ---**
*This light...*
**[17:51] ---**
*This passion...I want to feel them more!*
**[17:54] ---**
*That's why I can't let this end!*
**[17:57] ---**
Generation Guard!
**[17:59] ---**
Goddess of Twill, Tagwoot!
**[18:01] ---**
Add 10,000 to the Shield with a Skill!
**[18:07] ---**
*She endured it! Verno Fahrenheart!*
**[18:10] ---**
*Now Henri Hayao has a Drive Check
that will decide his destiny!*
**[18:14] ---**
I'll finish this now!
**[18:16] ---**
Triple Drive!
**[18:18] ---**
Second Check!
**[18:20] ---**
Draw Trigger!
**[18:21] ---**
Draw one card!
**[18:23] ---**
The Power goes to my Vanguard!
**[18:25] ---**
Third Check!
**[18:26] ---**
Critical Trigger!
**[18:28] ---**
All of its effects go to my Vanguard!
**[18:30] ---**
Go!
**[18:35] ---**
*He did it!*
**[18:38] ---**
*So hot! This is the power of humans?*
**[18:43] ---**
*Ah, but it's warm.*
**[18:46] ---**
*This is the light of his
feelings itself, shining purely.*
**[18:51] ---**
Connecting friends' feelings
and turning them into power...
**[18:55] ---**
Verno, this is my Vanguard!
**[19:00] ---**
I don't want it to end yet.
**[19:02] ---**
I want to feel much more!
**[19:05] ---**
More of this light!
**[19:08] ---**
Verno...
**[19:10] ---**
I'll give you my answer.
**[19:13] ---**
Damage Check.
**[19:15] ---**
Heal Trigger!
**[19:16] ---**
Recover one damage!
**[19:18] ---**
*Verno still endures!*
**[19:20] ---**
*She drew a tenacious Heal Trigger!*
**[19:23] ---**
It was fun.
**[19:25] ---**
But this is as far as I go.
**[19:27] ---**
Now show me the very best light!
**[19:31] ---**
Verno...
**[19:33] ---**
Come.
**[19:34] ---**
Okay!
**[19:35] ---**
"VMAX"'s Thunderstrike!
**[19:47] ---**
This is human...
**[19:49] ---**
This is Vanguard!
**[19:57] ---**
*He - He did it!*
**[20:00] ---**
*A dazzling victory!*
**[20:02] ---**
*Fukuhara's President gave us an
amazing victory befitting of his title!*
**[20:10] ---**
I did it! I did it!
**[20:17] ---**
Verno!
**[20:19] ---**
Are you alright?
**[20:20] ---**
Were you hurt during the fight?
**[20:23] ---**
It just means that I gave it my all.
**[20:27] ---**
Let's meet again, Hayao.
**[20:29] ---**
It was a great fight.
**[20:34] ---**
I understand now, thanks to you.
**[20:36] ---**
Huh?
**[20:37] ---**
It's not about winning or losing.
It's what's beyond that.
**[20:41] ---**
Vanguard's wonderfulness.
**[20:46] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[20:51] ---**
*I won somehow. Now Shion...*
**[20:55] ---**
You did quite well for a slave.
**[20:59] ---**
Hashima-senpai!
**[21:00] ---**
I did it, Hashima-senpai!
**[21:03] ---**
I won!
**[21:05] ---**
Against a member of Team Diffrider!
**[21:07] ---**
Whatever. If you hadn't won, I would have.
**[21:15] ---**
Um, Hashima-senpai.
**[21:17] ---**
Let's do our best, so Shion
can fight his own way as well.
**[21:22] ---**
Huh!?
**[21:25] ---**
Don't get ahead of yourself, slave!
**[21:29] ---**
Geez.
**[21:31] ---**
I'll retract the comment about
you saying empty words.
**[22:04] ---**
Chrono!
**[22:07] ---**
Shion!
**[22:18] ---**
Chrono...
**[22:20] ---**
I challenge you!
**[23:55] ---**
You really did it, Hayao.
**[23:57] ---**
You won triumphantly
against Verno Fahrenheart!
**[24:01] ---**
How do you feel right now?
**[24:02] ---**
I won because I did my best
as Fukuhara's President.
**[24:06] ---**
It's all thanks to Shion-
**[24:08] ---**
*Grr*
**[24:09] ---**
And Hashima-senpai who always trains me!
**[24:14] ---**
I see!
**[24:15] ---**
Fukuhara Vanguard have been
polishing their teamwork!
