**[00:06] ---**
Hi.
**[00:07] ---**
Are you going somewhere?
**[00:09] ---**
Yeah. To the Dragon Empire Branch.
**[00:12] ---**
"Dragon Empire Branch"?
**[00:15] ---**
The Association's Joutou branch.
**[00:19] ---**
Basically, it's the Association's office,
**[00:23] ---**
but the first three floors are
a Vanguard amusement space.
**[00:29] ---**
Strong fighters gather there.
**[00:32] ---**
They've got GIAS, too.
**[00:37] ---**
You wanna come?
***SIGN*** About Great Level
**[02:13] ---**
Mr. Anjou...
**[02:14] Spoken**
About the next event, the quiz tournament,
**[02:16] Spoken**
can I move ahead on that?
**[02:19] Spoken**
Yeah. As soon as all the
paperwork is in order,
**[02:21] Spoken**
get the stamp of approval
from the branch chief.
**[02:23] Spoken**
Mr. Anjou! The branch chief isn't here!
**[02:25] Spoken**
What?!
**[02:27] Spoken**
He ran off again?
**[02:30] Spoken**
When we're this busy...
**[02:34] Spoken**
I've got no choice.
I'll go search for the branch chief!
***SIGN*** Turn 6 Mamoru Anjou
**[02:44] Spoken**
The Association is split up into
six areas in the metro area,
**[02:48] Spoken**
each of them a branch modeled
after the planet Cray's nations.
**[02:52] Spoken**
The area we live in is the Dragon Empire.
**[02:55] Spoken**
They plan events and tournaments,
**[02:58] Spoken**
and promote networking between fighters.
**[03:00] Spoken**
Keeping regional Vanguard activity energized
is the main job of each branch.
**[03:09] Spoken**
That Association sure keeps itself busy, huh?
**[03:12] Spoken**
Yeah. You wanna go inside?
**[03:25] Spoken**
There sure are a lot of people here
when they've got an event goin'.
***SIGN*** Fight Mamoru Anjou Kagero Clan Leader
**[03:31] Spoken**
It looks like only local fighters
can participate in today's event.
**[03:36] Spoken**
Kamui!
**[03:39] Spoken**
Hey, you guys are here, huh?
**[03:42] Spoken**
Yep!
**[03:44] Spoken**
Are you gonna participate in the event, too?
**[03:46] Spoken**
Of course! We signed up.
**[03:48] Spoken**
I hope you get picked in the drawing.
**[03:51] Spoken**
Drawing?
**[03:54] Spoken**
Chrono, you're such a greenhorn.
**[03:56] Spoken**
You don't even know about
today's special event?
**[04:00] Spoken**
If you're picked in the drawing,
you get to fight Mamoru Anjou,
**[04:03] Spoken**
no matter what
grade of fighter you are!
**[04:06] Spoken**
I might be able to fight Mamoru.
**[04:09] Spoken**
This is my big chance!
**[04:10] Spoken**
There's no way he can overlook this fighter!
**[04:17] Spoken**
I struck Mamoru!
**[04:20] Spoken**
I apologize for my insolence, Mamoru!
**[04:22] Spoken**
Creepy...
**[04:24] Spoken**
You're calling Mamoru "creepy"?!
**[04:26] Spoken**
No, not him.
**[04:29] Spoken**
You can't even comprehend
the wonder of Mamoru Anjou,
**[04:31] Spoken**
clan leader of Kagero,
one of the Dragon Empire clans?
**[04:37] Spoken**
You are one sad man.
**[04:40] Spoken**
What the heck is a clan leader?
**[04:42] Spoken**
Oh, boy...
**[04:44] Spoken**
You don't even know that?
**[04:47] Spoken**
It's a top fighter recognized
by the Association.
**[04:51] Spoken**
But even if you have a fight like that,
**[04:54] Spoken**
your level is so much lower than his
that it won't be much of a fight at all.
**[04:57] Spoken**
He gets a handicap, depending
on his opponent's level.
**[05:01] Spoken**
He fights with fewer cards in his hand.
**[05:04] Spoken**
If you're lucky and win,
you get tons of points,
**[05:07] Spoken**
but even if you lose...
**[05:08] Spoken**
Just getting to fight Mamoru
is a reward of its own!
**[05:16] Spoken**
Since you're here, Chrono,
you oughta sign up.
**[05:21] Spoken**
It's Vangaro!
**[05:23] Spoken**
Chrono Shindou, grade 1.
**[05:26] Spoken**
The deck you use is...
**[05:28] Spoken**
...Gear Chronicle?!
**[05:34] Spoken**
Gear Chronicle...
**[05:38] Spoken**
That's the deck everyone's
talking about these days!
**[05:42] Spoken**
All right, you're signed up.
**[05:44] Spoken**
I hope you enjoy the event.
***SIGN*** Chrono Shindou
**[05:49] Spoken**
There are 528 people...
**[05:51] Spoken**
I doubt I'll get picked.
**[05:54] Spoken**
You never know.
**[05:55] Spoken**
Somebody's gotta get picked.
**[05:59] Spoken**
You're a positive thinker, huh?
**[06:07] Spoken**
W-What's with this character?
**[06:11] Spoken**
Hey.
**[06:20] Spoken**
I'm Vangaro!
**[06:22] Spoken**
Vangaro?
**[06:23] Spoken**
You don't know?
**[06:25] Spoken**
He's the Association's mascot.
**[06:27] Spoken**
I hear you've got a rare deck!
**[06:33] Spoken**
How about fighting me?!
**[06:38] Spoken**
I'm gonna pass.
**[06:40] Spoken**
Huh?! Why?! Why?!
**[06:42] Spoken**
Is this Vangaro's personality?
**[06:42] Spoken**
Why?! Why?!
**[06:45] Spoken**
I'm not sure...
**[06:47] Spoken**
I don't know that much about him.
**[06:52] Spoken**
Oh, there's Mamoru!
**[06:54] Spoken**
Hey!
**[07:01] Spoken**
Kamui. Long time no see.
**[07:03] Spoken**
Today's event is another big success.
**[07:06] Spoken**
And I'm thankful for it, but...
**[07:09] Spoken**
What's wrong?
**[07:11] Spoken**
Oh, the branch chief took off again.
**[07:14] Spoken**
The branch chief who's
famous for loving fights?
**[07:18] Spoken**
Even though we're so busy
today with the event...
**[07:29] Spoken**
I can't get up!
**[07:32] Spoken**
Help me, kind lad!
**[07:36] Spoken**
If I must...
**[07:38] Spoken**
You can't get up on your own?
**[07:42] Spoken**
Thank you!
**[07:43] Spoken**
You're as kind as I thought.
**[07:47] Spoken**
Yeah, whatever.
**[07:49] Spoken**
By way of thanks, I'll fight you!
**[07:53] Spoken**
That's thanks?
**[07:56] Spoken**
You've got it pretty rough, Mamoru.
**[07:59] Spoken**
Oh, that's right.
**[08:01] Spoken**
I wanted to introduce you to Chrono...
**[08:04] Spoken**
Huh?
**[08:05] Spoken**
Chrono?
**[08:08] Spoken**
You mean Chrono Shindou?
**[08:11] Spoken**
You know him?
**[08:12] Spoken**
I heard about him from Tokoha.
**[08:14] Spoken**
She said he has an unusual deck.
**[08:17] Spoken**
That's right...
**[08:19] Spoken**
...but where'd he go?
**[08:21] Spoken**
Wha...?!
**[08:23] Spoken**
That Vangaro was really
curious about Chrono's deck.
**[08:28] Spoken**
Vangaro?
**[08:32] Spoken**
Branch chief!
**[08:38] Spoken**
Is that you?!
**[08:40] ---**
Ah!
**[08:41] Spoken**
It's Mamoru Anjou!
**[08:43] Spoken**
Mamoru Anjou is right over there!
**[08:45] Spoken**
It is him! Mamoru Anjou!
**[08:49] Spoken**
Mamoru!
**[08:50] Spoken**
Mamoru!
**[08:51] Spoken**
Ah! Kamui Katsuragi is here, too!
**[08:57] Spoken**
Hey, calm down, you guys!
**[09:01] Spoken**
Let's go.
**[09:02] Spoken**
Wait!
**[09:03] Spoken**
Please give me your autograph!
**[09:04] Spoken**
Mamoru!
**[09:05] Spoken**
Me too!
**[09:07] Spoken**
G-Give me a minute, okay?
**[09:10] Spoken**
Branch chief, you...!
**[09:16] Spoken**
Are you being chased, old man?
**[09:17] Spoken**
I'm not an old man!
**[09:19] Spoken**
I'm Vangaro!
**[09:21] Spoken**
Whatever you say, but don't get me involved.
**[09:24] Spoken**
I just want to properly thank you.
**[09:31] Spoken**
Well, we've arrived at the fight area.
**[09:42] Spoken**
Let's fight! Fight...
**[09:47] Spoken**
Get me up! Get me up!
**[09:48] Spoken**
Get me up!
**[09:58] Spoken**
Kamui!
**[10:00] Spoken**
Tokoha...
**[10:02] Spoken**
If you're looking for Mamoru,
he's taking shelter in the waiting room.
**[10:05] Spoken**
Shelter?
**[10:09] Spoken**
Thank you for taking care of my big brother.
**[10:11] Spoken**
This is from my mother.
***SIGN*** Dragon
**[10:15] Spoken**
Thank you, Tokoha.
**[10:18] Spoken**
Um...
**[10:20] Spoken**
I'm not gonna show you any
mercy, branch chief...
**[10:26] Spoken**
He looks scary...
**[10:33] Spoken**
All right, let's fight!
**[10:38] Spoken**
What's that?
**[10:40] Spoken**
"A special quest for fighters.
**[10:42] Spoken**
Search for Vangaro in the
Dragon Empire Building"?
**[10:47] Spoken**
"He's somewhere in the building.
Please capture Vangaro."
**[10:51] Spoken**
300 points?!
**[10:54] Spoken**
Wow!
**[10:55] Spoken**
Why, you, Mamoru...!
**[10:58] Spoken**
You wanna capture me that badly?!
**[11:05] Spoken**
Old man, what'd you do?
**[11:07] Spoken**
I didn't do anything!
**[11:10] Spoken**
Look! There's Vangaro!
**[11:14] Spoken**
Let's get outta here!
**[11:16] Spoken**
Again?
**[11:28] Spoken**
Wait!
**[11:29] Spoken**
Sheesh. I don't know why I'm doin' this...
**[11:38] Spoken**
This quest is an abuse of authority!
**[11:41] Spoken**
It's inexcusable! Just bullying!
**[11:43] Spoken**
Saying that doesn't help
when you're bein' chased!
**[11:46] Spoken**
He's supposed to come up with quests
that get people excited...
**[11:53] Spoken**
...carefully select the best and
then officially announce them!
**[11:56] Spoken**
But here we are...
**[11:59] Spoken**
Well, people *are* excited...
**[12:03] Spoken**
That's not the issue...
**[12:05] Spoken**
Let's turn... that way...
**[12:08] Spoken**
...into the room!
***SIGN*** Patience
**[12:15] Spoken**
H-Hey...
**[12:17] Spoken**
This is a dead end.
**[12:18] Spoken**
What do we do?
**[12:20] Spoken**
This is what we do!
***SIGN*** Perseverance
**[12:40] Spoken**
Ow...
**[12:41] Spoken**
What was that?
**[12:43] Spoken**
Secret passage for staff members.
**[12:45] Spoken**
Come on, follow me.
**[12:54] Spoken**
This is...
**[12:56] Spoken**
...an office?
**[12:58] Spoken**
If you're gonna do a good job,
it needs to be fun.
**[13:01] Spoken**
Or so we say.
**[13:04] Spoken**
You look wiped out.
**[13:06] Spoken**
Your voice has turned to normal, too.
**[13:08] Spoken**
I-I don't know what you're talking about...
**[13:11] Spoken**
W-Well, it looks like we gave them the slip.
**[13:15] Spoken**
So let's fight...
**[13:17] Spoken**
Good grief. You wanna fight that badly?
**[13:21] Spoken**
Yes!
**[13:31] Spoken**
He hasn't been caught yet?
**[13:33] Spoken**
I haven't received any reports.
**[13:35] Spoken**
And it's about time for the event to start,
**[13:37] Spoken**
so there aren't as many
fighters looking for him now.
**[13:40] Spoken**
Yeesh.
**[13:45] Spoken**
There's a place we can
fight... just up ahead.
**[13:48] Spoken**
Why don't you just take that off?
**[13:50] Spoken**
I'm Vangaro!
**[13:52] Spoken**
There isn't anybody... inside of me...
**[13:57] Spoken**
For now, let's go our separate ways.
**[13:59] Spoken**
But what about our fight?!
**[14:02] Spoken**
Um...
**[14:03] Spoken**
After this, I'm gonna
fight this old man I know.
**[14:08] Spoken**
Yeah, that's right.
**[14:13] Spoken**
I-I see!
**[14:14] Spoken**
You gotta do what you gotta do!
**[14:16] Spoken**
Goodbye!
**[14:21] Spoken**
Hi! Vangaro gave me the message.
**[14:24] Spoken**
I hear you wanna fight me.
**[14:29] Spoken**
So there really was an old man inside.
**[14:33] Spoken**
And now, the fighter for the first match...
**[14:36] Spoken**
Start the roulette!
***SIGN*** Good Luck
**[14:38] Spoken**
Pick me! Pick me!
**[14:42] Spoken**
528! Chrono Shindou!
**[14:45] Spoken**
Him! Him!
**[14:49] Spoken**
Chrono Shindou, please come to the stage.
**[14:50] Spoken**
Lucky...
**[14:52] Spoken**
Huh?
**[14:56] Spoken**
He's not here?
**[14:58] Spoken**
Too bad, when he got picked.
**[15:00] Spoken**
In that case, it won't count,
**[15:00] Spoken**
Where the heck did Chrono go?
**[15:02] Spoken**
so let's start the roulette one more time.
**[15:20] Spoken**
You even have GIAS here?
**[15:23] Spoken**
As I thought, no one's using it.
**[15:26] Spoken**
Because everybody's busy.
**[15:28] Spoken**
Are you allowed to use it?
**[15:30] Spoken**
No problem!
**[15:31] Spoken**
I'm an employee.
**[15:33] Spoken**
Well, let's do it!
**[15:37] Spoken**
210! Tsuneto Tado!
**[15:44] Spoken**
My clan is Narukami.
**[15:46] Spoken**
Have you fought against it before?
**[15:48] Spoken**
Yeah. By the way, old man, what's your grade?
**[15:52] Spoken**
That's a secret.
**[15:57] Spoken**
Okay, here I go!
**[16:02] Spoken**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[16:05] Spoken**
The normal hand begins with five cards,
**[16:09] Spoken**
but Mamoru Anjou is going to start
with a handicap of three cards!
***SIGN*** Fight
**[16:11] Spoken**
Good luck!
**[16:13] Spoken**
Attack!
**[16:16] Spoken**
Fascinating...
**[16:17] Spoken**
But even with this attack...
**[16:20] Spoken**
...I'll guard!
**[16:24] Spoken**
All right! Nice! I like it!
**[16:27] Spoken**
This is so much fun, you've
got me on pins and needles!
**[16:30] Spoken**
You're having too much fun.
**[16:34] Spoken**
Stride Generation!
**[16:40] Spoken**
Mamoru Anjou really is strong.
**[16:42] Spoken**
You wouldn't know he's been handicapped!
**[16:45] Spoken**
That's my big brother.
**[16:49] Spoken**
You never gave up. Nice fight, Tsuneto Tado.
**[16:53] Spoken**
Let's give him a big hand, everyone.
**[16:55] Spoken**
I'm so happy!
**[16:56] Spoken**
Even though I lost, I'm happy!
**[16:58] Spoken**
Th-Thank you.
**[17:03] Spoken**
It ends here!
**[17:05] Spoken**
Not yet!
**[17:08] Spoken**
Guard!
**[17:12] Spoken**
Not bad.
**[17:13] Spoken**
Right back at ya!
**[17:16] Spoken**
We still haven't found him.
**[17:18] Spoken**
Jeez...
**[17:20] Spoken**
Maybe he left the premises?
**[17:22] Spoken**
He's not that irresponsible.
**[17:25] Spoken**
My guess is he's having a fight somewhere...
**[17:29] Spoken**
Generation Zone... release!
**[17:45] Spoken**
Now, show me...
**[17:47] Spoken**
...the world I truly desire!
**[17:50] Spoken**
Stride Generation!
**[18:13] Spoken**
Come and get me!
**[18:44] Spoken**
This is where it gets real!
**[18:48] Spoken**
Feel the fight!
**[18:50] Spoken**
Dazzling excitement, Stride Genera...
**[18:56] Spoken**
Found you!
**[19:05] Spoken**
Sorry, Mamoru!
**[19:09] Spoken**
Branch chief!
**[19:14] Spoken**
B-Branch chief?
**[19:17] Spoken**
Let's fight again sometime!
**[19:20] Spoken**
I'll be waiting!
**[19:22] Spoken**
The rumors don't do him justice...
**[19:24] Spoken**
So he's famous, huh?
**[19:27] Spoken**
This kid is Chrono Shindou?
**[19:29] Spoken**
That's right.
**[19:31] Spoken**
Nice to meet you. I'm Mamoru Anjou.
**[19:34] Spoken**
My little sister has told me a lot about you.
**[19:36] Spoken**
Little sister?
**[19:38] Spoken**
Mamoru is Tokoha's brother.
**[19:41] Spoken**
Tokoha?
**[19:43] Spoken**
Oh, that obnoxious...
**[19:47] Spoken**
She's strong-willed.
**[19:49] Spoken**
But she means well.
**[19:50] Spoken**
So be nice to her.
**[19:52] Spoken**
Okay.
**[19:54] Spoken**
That aside, it seems the branch chief
dragged you all over the place,
**[19:57] Spoken**
so I'm sorry for the trouble.
**[20:00] Spoken**
Well, it was fun for me, too.
**[20:04] Spoken**
But is the Dragon Empire okay
**[20:07] Spoken**
with somebody like that as the branch chief?
**[20:10] Spoken**
He's dependable when we really need him.
**[20:12] Spoken**
And he's a first-class fighter.
**[20:15] Spoken**
Really?
**[20:16] Spoken**
He's the Narukami clan leader.
**[20:19] Spoken**
Then he's a fighter in your class, Mamoru?
**[20:22] Spoken**
He's stronger than me.
**[20:24] Spoken**
His strength is like a bottomless pit.
**[20:27] Spoken**
It didn't feel like that when
I was fighting him, though.
**[20:31] Spoken**
The branch chief always brings himself
in line with his opponent's level
**[20:34] Spoken**
so both can have a fun fight.
**[20:36] Spoken**
Everyone who fights him smiles.
**[20:40] Spoken**
Now that you mention it, so did I...
**[20:43] Spoken**
I want to seriously fight the
branch chief myself someday.
**[20:51] Spoken**
Come to think of it,
**[20:53] Spoken**
you use an unusual deck, right, Chrono?
**[20:55] Spoken**
How about fighting me?
**[20:59] Spoken**
I don't mind fighting with a handicap.
**[21:02] Spoken**
You're a lucky guy, Chrono.
**[21:03] Spoken**
Fight him!
**[21:07] Spoken**
No, thank you.
**[21:08] Spoken**
If I do, I want it to be a serious fight.
**[21:10] Spoken**
Instead, I'll challenge you
after I get stronger.
**[21:15] Spoken**
So please fight me then.
**[21:19] Spoken**
I see.
**[21:20] Spoken**
I'll be waiting.
**[21:21] Spoken**
I'm always here at the Dragon Empire.
**[21:24] Spoken**
Okay.
**[21:25] Spoken**
Oh, that's right.
**[21:27] Spoken**
I'll give you the points for
the "capture Vangaro" quest.
**[21:31] Spoken**
Oh, that's okay...
**[21:32] Spoken**
Don't be shy. Take the points!
**[21:35] Spoken**
Think of it as compensation
for your troubles.
***SIGN*** Mamoru Anjou Chrono Shindou
**[21:45] Spoken**
That was fun!
**[21:47] Spoken**
Branch chief! Please get to work.
**[21:50] Spoken**
I bet you're frustrated you didn't
get to fight Gear Chronicle, huh?
**[21:56] Spoken**
Keep talking nonsense and I'm
not gonna help you anymore!
**[21:59] Spoken**
I was just kidding! Don't get mad!
**[22:01] Spoken**
Forget it, just do your work!
**[22:03] Spoken**
Okay, okay!
**[22:12] Spoken**
There are all kinds of fighters, huh?
**[22:15] Spoken**
Yep.
**[22:16] Spoken**
The Vanguard world is a wide place.
**[23:57] Spoken**
Dragon Empire Branch...
**[23:59] Spoken**
It was my first time there,
but what an amazing place.
**[24:01] Spoken**
That branch chief is
larger-than-life, you know?
**[24:04] Spoken**
I'm surprised there's somebody
like that at the top.
**[24:06] Spoken**
I bet Mamoru really backs him up.
**[24:09] Spoken**
Then it's like at Card Capital 2.
**[24:12] Spoken**
I support the undependable Shin!
**[24:16] Spoken**
But you remind me more of
the branch chief, Kamui...
**[24:18] Spoken**
