[00:02] ---
    Summer is over already, isn't it?
[00:05] ---
    Geez...That was a crazy trip.
[00:09] ---
    Attacked by bats and chased by a boar!
[00:13] ---
    It was hard, wasn't it?
    But I was also relieved.
[00:19] ---
    I'm glad everyone was understanding about
[00:22] ---
    the burden you'd been
    carrying all by yourself.
[00:25] ---
    Well, I guess it might have
    been good in that sense.
[00:29] ---
    But really, we went through
    a lot getting to this point.
[00:33] ---
    You're right.
[00:35] ---
    At first, all we did
    was fight with Kazuma.
[00:39] ---
    I was so worried.
[00:42] ---
    I wanted to enter the
    tournament with this team.
[00:46] ---
    But of course, we weren't
    anything like a team at first.
[00:49] ---
    ...never fades, and the smoke
    on Toribe Mountain remain...
[00:54] ---
    Shin-san, how's Chrono doing?
[00:58] ---
    He' working hard
    but seems a little spaced out...
[01:03] ---
    Even during battles.
[01:05] ---
    I thought so...
[01:07] ---
    You can't blame him.
[01:09] ---
    Chrono chose Harumi High.
[01:12] ---
    Shion chose Fukuhara High.
[01:15] ---
    Tokoha went to Paris.
[01:17] ---
    They've all been separated...
[01:22] ---
    But then he...
[01:25] ---
    Kazumi Onimaru appeared before me.
[01:42] ---
    Welcome.
[01:47] ---
    Chrono Shindou, right?
[01:52] ---
    I would like to battle you,
    the Generation Master.
[03:32] ---
    This place...
[03:37] ---
    Chrono Shindou.
[03:43] ---
    I'm impressed that
    you can see this vision.
[03:51] ---
    Onimaru was overpowering.
SIGN    TURN 40 Oath of Striders
[04:00] ---
    I understand your Vanguard.
[04:07] ---
    Plus one Critical to Atagolord.
[04:27] ---
    That was a good fight.
[04:30] ---
    Thanks.
[04:38] ---
    Wait up!
[04:45] ---
    Kazumi Onimaru.
[04:48] ---
    That's my name.
SIGN    Kazumi Onimaru
[04:58] ---
    Kazumi Onimaru.
[05:00] ---
    The U20 Champion.
[05:05] ---
    U20...
[05:10] ---
    A national Vanguard tournament
    for players under 20.
[05:17] ---
    You decided to enter the tournament
    because of that fight, didn't you?
[05:22] ---
    Yeah. I wanted to pay
    Kazumi Onimaru back for that loss.
[05:28] ---
    But the U20 requires a fighter
    to be in a team of three.
[05:33] ---
    I had to look for people to join my team.
[05:37] ---
    I can't believe I get to be in your team
[05:40] ---
    and be able to participate in the
    glorious U20 Championship with you!
[05:47] ---
    U20 is the gateway to
    becoming a pro-fighter, right?
[05:50] ---
    I hope I'm good enough for it!
[05:53] ---
    Stride Generation!
[05:55] ---
    Taiyou joined the team and
    we finally found our third member...
[05:59] ---
    Or so I'd hoped...
[06:01] ---
    But he was incredibly uncooperative.
[06:04] ---
    Kazuma Shouji!
[06:07] ---
    Here goes!
[06:11] ---
    I quit.
[06:13] ---
    That's enough. I give up.
[06:16] ---
    No wonder you're the Generation-whatever.
[06:18] ---
    I'm impressed.
[06:19] ---
    Hey, wait!
[06:21] ---
    My loss is inevitable.
[06:23] ---
    There's no point in playing anymore.
[06:27] ---
    But you should try until the very end!
[06:29] ---
    It's no time to give up!
[06:32] ---
    You gotta believe in your possibilities!
[06:34] ---
    What's the point in doing that?
[06:39] ---
    Devour!
    Until you seize the world you are seeking!
[06:43] ---
    I had no idea what he was thinking
    when he quit in the middle of a fight
[06:47] ---
    but Kazuma's strength was the real thing.
[06:50] ---
    As expected of a fighter
    you approved, right?
[06:54] ---
    Luard!
[06:57] ---
    I'll be the one to win in the end!
[07:00] ---
    A Critical Trigger...
[07:03] ---
    The Power goes to Knies!
    The Critical goes to Luard!
[07:22] ---
    I...won?
[07:25] ---
    I did?
[07:28] ---
    At that point,
    I still didn't know what he was thinking,
[07:33] ---
    but we somehow managed to form
    a team to fight in the U20.
[07:40] ---
    Speaking of teams, Chrono,
[07:41] ---
    Shion's club, Fukuhara High School
    had a hard time, too, didn't they?
[07:45] ---
    Hayao.
[07:47] ---
    It's been decided already.
[07:52] ---
    Shion?
[07:53] ---
    If I remember, you are...
[07:55] ---
    Shion Kiba, a freshman.
[07:58] ---
    Please allow me to make a
    suggestion to the board.
[08:02] ---
    A suggestion?
[08:04] ---
    If we enter this competition as members
    of the Fukuhara Vanguard club,
[08:09] ---
    and win the championship,
[08:11] ---
    would you consider
    allowing the club to remain?
[08:14] ---
    I never imagined the existence of
    Shion's club was depending on the U20.
[08:20] ---
    But Shion's amazing, isn't he?
[08:23] ---
    He saw the potential of Henri Hayao,
    who is now carrying Fukuhara Vanguard Club.
[08:36] ---
    I knew I wasn't mistaken!
[08:41] ---
    I never expected Rin Hashima
    to be their third fighter though.
[08:48] ---
    Rin Hashima!
[08:50] ---
    Attack Vanguard with Altiel!
[08:53] ---
    No Guard.
[08:57] ---
    What's wrong?
[08:59] ---
    The real fun is yet to come.
[09:08] ---
    And one other...Tokoha Anjou!
[09:11] ---
    Jaime Flowers, right?
[09:14] ---
    Won't you take that
    mask off already, Jaime?
[09:18] ---
    I have no such name!
[09:21] ---
    Well, a lot happened.
[09:24] ---
    But since I'm entering the U20,
    I don't intend to lose!
[09:29] ---
    You've already decided
    on your teammates then-
[09:32] ---
    Jaime Flowers has the former
    Dark Zone Branch Chief, Satoru Enishi.
[09:37] ---
    And Tokoha's close friend, Yumi Okazaki.
[09:40] ---
    Tokoha, long time no see!
[09:43] ---
    What are you chatting about?
[09:45] ---
    Kazuma!
[09:47] ---
    We were just talking about how hard things
    were when we were first forming our team.
[09:52] ---
    Right, Chrono?
[09:54] ---
    Yeah. That's all.
[09:57] ---
    You guys were too forceful for a start.
[10:02] ---
    Although it's true
    that I was irritated as well.
[10:05] ---
    I thought it was no use back then.
[10:09] ---
    And Kazuma said he was
    going to leave the team later.
[10:12] ---
    Yes, yes. I'm sorry.
[10:14] ---
    But...
[10:16] ---
    I don't know what your circumstances are!
[10:20] ---
    But!
[10:21] ---
    Thinking back, it was after that
    that I first thought I could do this.
[10:25] ---
    I believe in your fight!
[10:29] ---
    You are strong! You will win!
[10:32] ---
    Beat this bunch already!
[10:42] ---
    The Power goes to Gyva!
[10:44] ---
    The Critical goes to Carnivore Dragon!
[10:48] ---
    Well, I believed in you
    from the beginning though.
[10:53] ---
    Huh?
[10:54] ---
    I don't want to betray their feelings!
[10:59] ---
    Ritual! Add 5000 Power!
[11:02] ---
    We will be the ones to win!
[11:04] ---
    You responded to our hopes
    by playing your style of Vanguard.
[11:09] ---
    Shut up.
[11:14] ---
    And at long last...
[11:15] ---
    The U20 began!
[11:17] ---
    Now! It's finally starting.
[11:20] ---
    The arena for passionate
    fights between under-20s!
[11:25] ---
    The U20 Championship!
[11:30] ---
    The fighters to keep
    an eye on this time are...
[11:36] ---
    Chrono Shindou!
[11:38] ---
    Shion Kiba!
[11:41] ---
    Tokoha Anjou!
[11:43] ---
    And from the old Q4 team,
    that man has returned!
[11:50] ---
    Team Hell and Heaven, Kamui Katsuragi!
[11:54] ---
    And we must not forget this man.
[11:58] ---
    His strength is overpowering!
[12:00] ---
    He superbly won the
    U20 tournament last time...
[12:05] ---
    Led by Kazumi Onimaru!
[12:08] ---
    Team Diffrider!
[12:13] ---
    The First Stage of the U20 Championship,
[12:18] ---
    the Cray Scramble will now begin!
[12:21] ---
    Stand Up!
[12:22] ---
    The!
[12:23] ---
    Vanguard!
[12:39] ---
    It's like a dream, isn't it?
[12:42] ---
    Even just being able to
    enter the U20 is amazing
[12:45] ---
    but to think that we were
    able to make it this far!
[12:48] ---
    A lot has happened since the first stage.
[12:52] ---
    I didn't think it would suddenly become
    a fight to take points off each other.
[12:55] ---
    I know! We've had difficult fights
    from the very first day.
[12:59] ---
    Shion and Tokoha have, as well...
[13:09] ---
    Yeah. But they're not
    the type to finish like that.
[13:13] ---
    They've been fighting with their
[13:16] ---
    survival on the line just like us!
[13:18] ---
    Shion, has too.
[13:19] ---
    All of its effects go to Luminous Hope!
[13:22] ---
    I respect you, my proud opponent!
[13:29] ---
    I'll finish it with this!
[13:31] ---
    Tokoha, as well.
[13:32] ---
    Attack!
[13:38] ---
    Don't get overconfident! Not yet!
    I won't let it end yet!
[13:43] ---
    Everyone has their hopes pinned on the U20!
[13:46] ---
    Hitting their feelings into each
    other and fighting seriously!
[13:51] ---
    Stride Generation!
[13:54] ---
    One Steeped in Sin, Scharhrot!
[13:58] ---
    I swore to fight my best for my team!
[14:02] ---
    Let's turn this up a notch!
[14:04] ---
    This is my burning hot fight!
[14:07] ---
    Burning Soul! Blazing Fighting Spirit!
[14:10] ---
    I have something I can use
    because I'm in this situation!
[14:15] ---
    Stride Generation!
[14:18] ---
    Come!
[14:19] ---
    Conquering Supreme Dragon,
    Dragonic Vanquisher "VMAX"!
[14:25] ---
    As the president, I can't
    have an embarrassing fight!
[14:29] ---
    The three of us will have our glory!
[14:33] ---
    Such a fierce spirit!
[14:35] ---
    As expected of a fighter
    Shion Kiba acknowledged!
[14:39] ---
    Perfect Guard!
[14:41] ---
    The light of the moon is my magic.
[14:44] ---
    Here I come, Kazuma!
[14:47] ---
    Attack Vanguard with Lovely!
[14:51] ---
    Let's take over the universe together!
[14:54] ---
    Attack Vanguard with
    Celebrate Voice, Lauris!
[15:02] ---
    There you are!
[15:04] ---
    We also met new fighters, didn't we?
[15:10] ---
    We are the team that inherited the
    legendary Team Nippon's name!
[15:15] ---
    Team New Nippon!
[15:17] ---
    Team New Nippon?
[15:20] ---
    We will win!
[15:22] ---
    Let's fight, Chrono Shindou!
[15:24] ---
    I couldn't ask for more!
[15:27] ---
    Here I come, Chrono Shindou!
[15:29] ---
    This is the Tachikaze which
    I inherited from Rive!
[15:33] ---
    He was a strange one, though.
[15:35] ---
    Perfect Guard!
[15:37] ---
    Arka!
[15:40] ---
    You're in Team Striders...
[15:42] ---
    I don't think I've done anything big
    enough for you to know my name.
[15:46] ---
    I'm Team New Nippon's
[15:47] ---
    Well, the part where they trust their
    teammates is just like a certain someone.
[15:52] ---
    Stand Up! Vanguard!
[15:55] ---
    Triple Drive!
[15:57] ---
    First Check!
[15:59] ---
    All of its effects go to my
    Vanguard, Yasuie Gouma!
[16:03] ---
    I will protect our team!
[16:05] ---
    So you just go straight ahead! Arata!
[16:08] ---
    Strike down all in your path!
[16:14] ---
    I'm Arata Nishizawa, a Tachikaze user!
[16:17] ---
    And there was also
    Noa Hoshizaki, wasn't there?
[16:20] ---
    I am Noa Hoshizaki, a Link Joker user.
[16:24] ---
    Yeah, but I had no idea at the time.
[16:29] ---
    That the Diffriders were
    moving in the shadows of the U20.
[16:33] ---
    Did you hear a voice?
[16:34] ---
    It sounded like it was coming
    from somewhere far away.
[16:37] ---
    So you can hear it too.
[16:39] ---
    The resonance of souls
    crossing space and time.
[16:44] ---
    The voice of your other self.
[16:54] ---
    What is this?!
[16:58] ---
    Come by the guidance of my master,
[17:01] ---
    to the vessel of your other self!
[17:04] ---
    Different World Ride!
[17:06] ---
    Star-vader, Chaos Breaker Dragon!
[17:21] ---
    Our U20 almost became a place
    where we weren't simply there to fight.
[17:27] ---
    You're not satisfied with me?
[17:40] ---
    This is-
[17:50] ---
    This is...
[18:02] ---
    Planet Cray?
[18:05] ---
    This is the battlefield.
[18:07] ---
    It's nothing like your little game.
[18:10] ---
    If you die, that's the end.
[18:13] ---
    But Chrono, Verno,
    who I fought, was different.
[18:30] ---
    An image of the fight! No, it isn't.
[18:33] ---
    This feels real!
[18:35] ---
    It's wonderful, isn't it?
[18:38] ---
    I found the answer that had eluded
    me so quickly by meeting you.
[18:43] ---
    That may have been my only good fortune.
[18:48] ---
    Verno, what are you-
[18:50] ---
    It is regretful,
    but this time is at an end.
[18:53] ---
    Thank you, Taiyou.
[18:56] ---
    Stride Generation.
[19:05] ---
    Our Vanguard
[19:07] ---
    is always hitting against
    someone else's heart.
[19:11] ---
    It brings both fighters to new heights.
[19:19] ---
    I remembered when I fought Shion!
[19:22] ---
    I remembered the Vanguard I believe in!
[19:28] ---
    Chrono!
[19:30] ---
    Shion!
[19:42] ---
    Chrono...
[19:43] ---
    I challenge you!
[19:46] ---
    Attack Vanguard with
    Knight of Heavenly Decree, Altmile!
[19:49] ---
    Generation Guard!
[19:51] ---
    Time Maiden of Eternity, Uluru!
[19:53] ---
    Activate Skill!
[19:55] ---
    Add 5000 Power to the Shield for
    each face-up card in the G Zone!
[20:15] ---
    This is our...
[20:17] ---
    Our Vanguard!
[20:21] ---
    It doesn't matter what
    Onimaru and the others try.
[20:24] ---
    From now on, we will...
[20:26] ---
    We'll just play Vanguard our own way!
[20:29] ---
    That's right!
[20:36] ---
    Yeah!
[20:39] ---
    Tokoha and the Jaime Flowers have
    resurrected to fight in the final stage.
[20:44] ---
    And Shion and the
    others are waiting for us.
[20:48] ---
    Alright!
[20:50] ---
    Kumi as well?
[20:52] ---
    Yes!
[20:53] ---
    We did it.
[20:59] ---
    The ones to proceed from the
    repechage to the final stage...
[21:04] ---
    Are Jaime Flowers!
[21:07] ---
    Bravo! You did it, amigos!
[21:12] ---
    The semifinals first match...
[21:15] ---
    Team Diffrider versus...
[21:20] ---
    Fukuhara High School Vanguard Club!
[21:28] ---
    And the second match is...
[21:30] ---
    Striders versus Jaime Flowers!
[21:35] ---
    What kinds of fights are waiting
    for us in the final stage?
[21:45] ---
    I don't want to lose! We can't lose!
[21:49] ---
    Chrono...I want to become stronger!
[21:52] ---
    Much, much stronger!
[21:58] ---
    I'll do it too!
[21:59] ---
    I'll get him back and
    settle our score for sure!
[22:05] ---
    We can do it!
[22:07] ---
    Let's enter the final stage with a bang!
[22:10] ---
    Yeah!
[22:11] ---
    Let's go!
[22:12] ---
    The ones to win will be us, the Striders!
[22:16] ---
    Stand Up!
[22:18] ---
    Vanguard!
[23:55] ---
    Ah! I can't believe it!
[23:58] ---
    What's wrong, Chrono?
[23:59] ---
    I was so focused on the U20,
    I forgot to do my Summer homework!
[24:03] ---
    What about you, Kazuma?
[24:04] ---
    Of course I've finished.
[24:06] ---
    Taiyou!
[24:06] ---
    I finished mine before the vacation started,
    so all I have left is my research project.
[24:11] ---
    Research project, huh?
[24:13] ---
    How about observing Shindou, then?
[24:15] ---
    Eh? It would just be a
    daily log of his Vanguard fights!
