**[00:01] ---**
Now, show me the world I truly desire!
**[00:12] ---**
Stride Generation!
**[00:21] ---**
Arbiters...
**[00:24] ---**
It is time for judgment.
**[00:28] ---**
As your fates are intertwined,
**[00:31] ---**
you have been chosen
to bear the responsibility
**[00:35] ---**
of breaking the shackles of imagination.
**[00:39] ---**
There shall be five fights
that lead the way to destiny.
**[00:42] ---**
When all of them are determined,
**[00:45] ---**
the truth of the universe
will decide on the ideal future.
**[02:34] ---**
A mysterious light has suddenly appeared
and is gradually expanding!
**[02:39] ---**
Whether the people who were stuck inside
are safe or not is unknown.
**[02:54] ---**
We are... Trinity Dragon.
**[03:10] ---**
So they have broken through my imagination
**[03:14] ---**
and awakened.
**[03:17] ---**
The gate is already open.
**[03:19] ---**
This "Tower of Light" is a space that
leads to the truth of the universe.
**[03:25] ---**
If our thoughts get through, even once,
**[03:27] ---**
the truth will recognize the Stride Gate
**[03:30] ---**
and the perfect future will be complete.
**[03:34] ---**
Come.
**[03:36] ---**
We shall settle fate,
**[03:38] ---**
and with this hand, I will decide the future.
***SIGN*** Turn 44 Time of Judgment
**[03:48] ---**
I see.
**[03:49] ---**
So this is what Ryuzu Myoujin is after.
**[03:54] ---**
All the people who were touched by
the light of the Stride Gate
**[03:58] ---**
have probably been captured by an imaginary
world that materializes the future they want.
**[04:03] ---**
That source of that is the
planet Cray's future potential.
**[04:08] ---**
In other words, all the life force
of everything that lives on Cray.
**[04:12] ---**
The planet's life is
being snatched from the roots
**[04:15] ---**
and converted into a Stride Gate
**[04:18] ---**
sustained by a gigantic imaginary world.
**[04:21] ---**
At this rate, the Stride Gate
will eventually engulf the entire world.
**[04:27] ---**
Then the world will be swallowed up
**[04:30] ---**
by the ideal that Ryuzu imagined.
**[04:33] ---**
He hated violence.
**[04:35] ---**
I'm sure whatever disagrees with his thoughts
will be erased from his imaginary world.
**[04:42] ---**
It's the completion of the quietest
world takeover in history.
**[04:48] ---**
The heck with that!
**[04:50] ---**
He'd do that, even though it means
puttin' all life on Cray at risk?!
**[04:54] ---**
Acting on his own, even though it means
the destruction of another world?
**[04:58] ---**
Not if I can help it!
**[05:00] ---**
I don't want to take back a fake like that!
**[05:06] ---**
Both the planet Cray and our world
are inside of that tower of light.
**[05:11] ---**
The Stride Force has intertwined
the space-time of both worlds.
**[05:15] ---**
I'm sure your imaginations are reflected
there in extremely realistic forms.
**[05:22] ---**
Anything can happen.
**[05:26] ---**
It seems this is as far...
**[05:30] ---**
...as my support can go.
**[05:42] ---**
Did Mr. Ibuki really go on ahead by himself?
**[05:49] ---**
I thought he was gonna leave it to me!
**[05:52] ---**
In the end...
**[05:54] ---**
...he acted on his own again.
**[06:17] ---**
Hey! Wake up!
**[06:39] ---**
It's for the sake of the fluctuations
I desire, Mr. Ibuki.
**[06:44] ---**
I put a spell on it so that
only you couldn't dream.
**[06:53] ---**
Struggle to the best of your ability...
**[06:57] ---**
But you can't draw a trigger.
**[07:15] ---**
Shinonome, huh?
**[07:17] ---**
You can't do a thing with him.
**[07:21] ---**
Ryuzu Myoujin!
**[07:24] ---**
One who is unqualified would challenge me?
**[07:28] ---**
You're just a sinner.
**[07:31] ---**
There's no way the truth of the universe
would entrust things
**[07:35] ---**
to someone who's only acted
to escape a stigma.
**[07:38] ---**
Enough of your tedious talk!
I'm going to settle this!
**[07:42] ---**
Your mad ambitions end here!
**[07:46] ---**
Or would you run away? The one who
claims he's trying to save the world?
**[07:53] ---**
Hush your mouth, stripling.
**[07:59] ---**
You can amuse me until the arbiters come.
**[08:04] ---**
I'm going to administer punishment
**[08:07] ---**
to one who wasn't chosen to judge,
yet is standing here so arrogantly.
**[08:10] ---**
It is you who shall be punished,
Ryuzu Myoujin.
**[08:16] ---**
Stand up the Vanguard!
**[08:16] ---**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[08:37] ---**
What's that?!
**[08:39] ---**
Neon Messiah!
**[08:42] ---**
Ride!
**[08:43] ---**
Voltaro Idea-drone!
**[08:46] ---**
I ride Asleep Messiah!
**[08:50] ---**
I call Destiny Dealer.
**[08:53] ---**
Attack!
**[08:56] ---**
Guard!
**[09:00] ---**
Mr. Ibuki's unit and Ryuzu's...?!
**[09:04] ---**
The fight inside has begun!
**[09:06] ---**
That image has appeared!
**[09:08] ---**
Let's hurry!
**[09:13] ---**
This is the Stride Gate...
**[09:16] ---**
Luna is deep inside of here.
**[09:19] ---**
The Company henchmen, too.
**[09:21] ---**
Let's settle things with everyone
we've come across thus far.
**[09:24] ---**
They're all gonna get their just deserts!
**[09:27] ---**
Let's all come back here together,
no matter what.
**[09:32] ---**
Including Luna and Ibuki,
**[09:36] ---**
let's all take back a time
that'll let us play Vanguard like normal!
**[09:41] ---**
Definitely.
**[09:42] ---**
That's a promise.
**[09:46] ---**
Let's go!
**[10:26] ---**
Satoru Enishi...
**[10:47] ---**
Luna!
**[10:55] ---**
Even though you're a villain,
**[10:57] ---**
you have my respect for coming here
instead of running away.
**[11:01] ---**
Hiroki...
**[11:03] ---**
If you lose here,
**[11:05] ---**
the truth of the universe will approve
of the Stride Gate's existence!
**[11:12] ---**
The excellent world that Ryuzu created
is almost complete!
**[11:17] ---**
I'm gonna punish you, meddling villain!
**[11:25] ---**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[12:23] ---**
Hi. You came.
**[12:47] ---**
What the heck is goin' on here?
Has judgment started for everyone?
**[12:53] ---**
Stride Generation!
**[12:56] ---**
Golden Knight of Incandescence, Ebraucus!
**[13:03] ---**
Ebraucus's skill!
**[13:05] ---**
I look at the top two cards of my deck,
**[13:07] ---**
and superior call Perimore!
**[13:10] ---**
Perimore's skill!
**[13:12] ---**
I look at the top three cards of my deck,
**[13:14] ---**
and superior call Sunshine Knight, Jeffrey to the same column!
**[13:18] ---**
Gurguit's Stride Skill!
**[13:21] ---**
I look at the top four cards of my deck
**[13:24] ---**
and superior call Player of the
Holy Pipe, Gerrie! +2000 power!
**[13:29] ---**
Gerrie's Unite!
**[13:31] ---**
Gerrie gets another +3000 power!
**[13:35] ---**
You're so annoying.
**[13:38] ---**
I attack Grandrifter!
**[13:42] ---**
No guard!
**[13:47] ---**
You're a pest!
**[13:48] ---**
Of course we're gonna have the future
where everyone in the world can be happy!
**[13:53] ---**
I don't believe in an
artificial future like that!
**[13:58] ---**
Triple drive!
**[14:01] ---**
Critical trigger!
**[14:03] ---**
I give the power to Perimore,
**[14:06] ---**
and the extra critical to Ebraucus!
**[14:12] ---**
Hiroki, do you really think
a future like that is right?
**[14:17] ---**
Guard!
**[14:21] ---**
Of course.
**[14:23] ---**
Because I'm a member of the Company, too!
**[14:27] ---**
Stride Generation!
**[14:30] ---**
Super Cosmic Hero, X-gallop!
**[14:34] ---**
Stride skill!
**[14:36] ---**
I give X-gallop +4000 power!
**[14:40] ---**
This imaginary world is awesome, isn't it?
**[14:44] ---**
All wishes come true!
**[14:49] ---**
The bad guys...
**[14:53] ---**
...and worthless hangers-on...
**[14:57] ---**
...will all...
**[15:00] ---**
...will all disappear!
**[15:03] ---**
I call Grandrifter!
**[15:06] ---**
I give that and my Vanguard +4000 power!
**[15:09] ---**
I call Grandvicle!
**[15:12] ---**
Burst! +4000 power!
**[15:14] ---**
I call Grandmantle!
**[15:17] ---**
Burst! +4000 power!
**[15:20] ---**
I rest Grandlady and activate her skill!
**[15:23] ---**
My Vanguard and Grandmantle
both get +4000 power!
**[15:28] ---**
The same skill, one more time!
**[15:34] ---**
What do you think of that?! Look!
**[15:36] ---**
Now my Vanguard has 50000 power!
**[15:38] ---**
You're out of your league!
**[15:42] ---**
X-gallop attacks your Vanguard!
**[15:45] ---**
Drive plus one!
**[15:48] ---**
I'm in the right!
**[15:50] ---**
That's why I can make a righteous world!
**[15:59] ---**
This is my justice future!
**[16:08] ---**
Perfect guard!
**[16:11] ---**
A long time ago...
**[16:13] ---**
...I thought the same way you did.
**[16:17] ---**
I thought if I became strong,
people would acknowledge me.
**[16:20] ---**
I thought I could find a place to belong
and I wouldn't be afraid of anything.
**[16:25] ---**
But I was wrong.
**[16:28] ---**
I really just wanted to run away
from my weak self.
**[16:32] ---**
I couldn't do anything,
so I wanted to throw myself away.
**[16:35] ---**
I was just clinging to a powerful force.
**[16:41] ---**
Tell me, Hiroki,
is this really what you want?
**[16:45] ---**
Wh-what are you...?!
**[16:48] ---**
Is this really the world that you desire?
**[16:53] ---**
Hiroki...
**[16:57] ---**
Whatever! It doesn't matter!
**[17:01] ---**
Quadruple drive!
**[17:04] ---**
Draw trigger!
**[17:06] ---**
I give the power to Grandmantle.
**[17:09] ---**
Critical trigger!
**[17:10] ---**
I give all of the effects to Grandrifter!
**[17:14] ---**
If you sleep, you can be happy!
**[17:17] ---**
And yet, why...
**[17:20] ---**
Why do I have this agonizing feeling?!
**[17:24] ---**
Isn't this good enough?!
**[17:26] ---**
Grandmantle!
**[17:31] ---**
Gurguit's skill activated!
**[17:33] ---**
I look at the top four cards of my deck,
**[17:36] ---**
and call Gorboduc to the Guardian Circle!
**[17:40] ---**
Plus guard and intercept!
**[17:50] ---**
Grandrifter!
**[17:55] ---**
If everyone would just go to sleep,
it could all come true!
**[17:59] ---**
Generation Guard!
**[18:02] ---**
Golden Beast, Sleimy Flare!
**[18:05] ---**
Skill activated!
**[18:07] ---**
I put Gorboduc on the bottom of my deck.
**[18:09] ---**
I look at the top four cards of my deck,
**[18:11] ---**
then call Curable Angel and Holy Mage, Pwyll!
**[18:23] ---**
I saw the perfect future, too.
**[18:28] ---**
It made me incredibly happy.
**[18:33] ---**
Chrono, Shion, Tokoha,
and everyone else was there.
**[18:40] ---**
In that world, none of my past had happened.
**[18:45] ---**
The time I was all alone,
the time I lost my way...
**[18:51] ---**
...the time I was miserable... All gone.
**[19:15] ---**
But you mustn't forget things like that,
no matter how hard it is.
**[19:21] ---**
Without all that stuff,
meeting Chrono and the others,
**[19:25] ---**
who I am now,
the future I want to grasp...
**[19:29] ---**
...none of it has any meaning!
**[19:34] ---**
Stride Generation!
**[19:39] ---**
Golden Dragon, Glorious Reigning Dragon!
**[19:44] ---**
Stride skill!
**[19:45] ---**
I superior call
Knight of the Remaining Sun, Henrinus!
**[19:49] ---**
+2000 power!
**[19:51] ---**
Henrinus's skill!
**[19:52] ---**
I look at the top three cards of my deck,
and superior call Jago!
**[19:57] ---**
Both get +3000 power!
**[20:00] ---**
I call Gerrie!
**[20:01] ---**
Unite! +3000 power!
**[20:08] ---**
Vanguard is about bonds.
**[20:10] ---**
They taught me that, the people
who mean the most to me.
**[20:18] ---**
Jago attacks!
**[20:21] ---**
Guard!
**[20:22] ---**
Henrinus!
**[20:24] ---**
S-Stay back!
**[20:27] ---**
Glorious attacks!
**[20:29] ---**
Glorious's Unite!
**[20:31] ---**
I put two rear-guards
on the bottom of my deck,
**[20:34] ---**
look at the top seven cards
of the deck,
**[20:36] ---**
and superior call the same number of units
that are face up in the G Zone!
**[20:40] ---**
Henrinus's skill!
**[20:42] ---**
I look at the top three cards of my deck,
and superior call Gorboduc!
**[20:46] ---**
Each of them get +3000 power!
**[20:53] ---**
Perfect guard!
**[20:58] ---**
Triple drive!
**[21:00] ---**
Critical trigger!
**[21:02] ---**
I give all of the effects to Gurguit!
**[21:07] ---**
I attack your Vanguard!
**[21:11] ---**
Even if it's hard... Even if it's painful...
**[21:13] ---**
...the bonds formed through Vanguard
will support you!
**[21:19] ---**
Hiroki, even with you.
**[21:26] ---**
Hiroki...
**[21:29] ---**
I want to be your friend.
**[21:35] ---**
Not in a dream. With the real you.
**[23:58] ---**
I even saw it in a dream.
The perfect future is almost here.
**[24:03] ---**
I won't let that happen!
**[24:05] ---**
You aren't even qualified to
be an arbiter. What can you do?
**[24:10] ---**
Pretending to be brave... That's pathetic.
**[24:13] ---**
I'm well aware of that!
**[24:15] ---**
This is the opportunity to atone
that Vanguard has given me!
**[24:20] ---**
I swear I'll stop you!
