[00:07] Spoken
    Hi. This is unusual.
[00:11] Spoken
    What can I do for you today?
[01:49] Spoken
    Aichi Sendou?
[01:52] Spoken
    I thought it was unusual for you to come here,
    but you're looking for someone?
[01:56] Spoken
    Yeah. Do you remember that name?
[02:03] Spoken
    Who knows?
[02:04] Spoken
    Think hard! Aichi Sendou!
[02:08] Spoken
    You of all people should remember him!
[02:10] Spoken
    Ah! So you're looking for a new fighter
    you've got your eye on.
[02:17] Spoken
    No!
[02:20] Spoken
    You don't remember seeing this before?
[02:23] Spoken
    That's...
[02:25] Spoken
    Do you remember?
[02:26] Spoken
    It looks a lot like my Blaster Dark.
[02:29] Spoken
    Look closely! Don't you feel something?
[02:34] Spoken
    I thought so hard that
    I got a headache.
[02:38] Spoken
    Forget it! I'm outta here.
[02:45] Spoken
    W-What's with him? After I went to
    all the trouble of making tea...
[02:49] Spoken
    Now, now. The three of us
    can have an early teatime.
[02:54] Spoken
    Certainly, Ren.
[03:08] Spoken
    I wonder what you intend to do now...
[03:13] Spoken
    At a glance, it looks like
    all is well with this world.
[03:17] Spoken
    But there's just one thing
    that I can't accept.
[03:22] Spoken
    Nobody remembers Aichi Sendou,
    the boy who saved the world.
[03:28] Spoken
    Nobody but the three of us...
SIGN    Seek the Mate
[03:44] Spoken
    There must be more mates than us.
[03:50] Spoken
    I thought so hard that
    I got a headache.
[03:53] Spoken
    That jerk, Ren...
[03:54] Spoken
    Kai!
[03:55] Spoken
    I thought he was a mate, but was I wrong?
[03:58] Spoken
    No, I'm sure...
[04:00] Spoken
    Hey, Kai!
[04:01] Spoken
    What?!
[04:04] Spoken
    Miwa...
[04:07] Spoken
    I just came to remind you
    about the club meeting.
[04:09] Spoken
    What were you so irritated about?
[04:12] Spoken
    Aichi Sendou...
[04:14] Spoken
    Him again? I already told you,
    I don't know any student by that name.
[04:24] Spoken
    What's he mad about?
[04:27] Spoken
    It isn't good to keep
    these things bottled up.
[04:29] Spoken
    Come on, I'll be your sounding board.
[04:32] Spoken
    It's Kai and Miwa!
[04:34] Spoken
    Oh, no, they're coming
    this way! What should I do?!
[04:36] Spoken
    Jeez. Watch this.
[04:38] Spoken
    Are you guys on the way
    to your club? Good luck!
[04:42] Spoken
    Impressive...
[04:43] Spoken
    Kai...
[04:44] Spoken
    Thanks!
[04:48] Spoken
    Toshiki Kai!
[04:50] Spoken
    Showdown! This time for sure,
    I'm gonna beat you
[04:54] Spoken
    and become the top fighter
    in this school!
[04:56] Spoken
    Hey, Morikawa, Izaki!
[04:59] Spoken
    Morikawa again?
[05:01] Spoken
    There's no way you'll beat Kai!
[05:04] Spoken
    Go clean up your deck and come back again!
[05:07] Spoken
    S-Shut up!
[05:09] Spoken
    D-Don't interfere in a
    showdown between two men!
[05:13] Spoken
    In this Ultra-rare CD you loaned me,
    I really liked Rekka's solo.
[05:17] Spoken
    I think I'm more partial to Suiko.
[05:20] Spoken
    Oh, gimme a break!
[05:23] Spoken
    Real Cardfighters don't
    get infatuated with idols!
[05:28] Spoken
    Now, I'm tellin' you to fight me!
[05:30] Spoken
    Okay, okay. If you're so hot to
    fight Kai, join the Vanguard Club.
[05:37] Spoken
    Kai is so merciless that everybody
    is too scared to join.
[05:41] Spoken
    I wanna join, but Morikawa...
[05:45] Spoken
    I refuse! Like I'd join
    the same club as my rival!
[05:49] Spoken
    He's like that.
[05:50] Spoken
    I'm going first.
[05:51] Spoken
    Okay, see you guys later.
[05:53] Spoken
    Running away?! I swear I'm not gonna give up!
SIGN    Vanguard Club
[05:58] Spoken
    Okay! As always, get psyched and picture it!
[06:06] Spoken
    Ahem...
[06:08] Spoken
    What a lonely Vanguard club.
[06:11] Spoken
    We have to do something about members.
[06:14] Spoken
    Morikawa and Izaki aren't members of
    the Hitsue High Vanguard Club anymore.
[06:21] Spoken
    I guess that's another difference
    in this world without Aichi.
[06:25] Spoken
    And Miwa's forgotten him too, apparently.
[06:35] Spoken
    Just like with Tokura and Ishida,
    fighting him may make him remember...
[06:41] Spoken
    A strong image...
[06:43] Spoken
    If I hit him with a passionate memory...
[06:47] Spoken
    Can we use the Motion Figure System?
[06:50] Spoken
    O-Okay.
[06:53] Spoken
    After all, if nobody uses it, the ghost
    of wastefulness will appear, right?
[06:56] Spoken
    I haven't told you guys this yet,
    but we've got a new system in.
[07:02] Spoken
    You can enjoy fights with
    three times the sensation,
[07:03] Spoken
    Miwa... Let's go.
[07:03] Spoken
    and ten times the sense of realism.
[07:05] ---
    Huh? Sure.
[07:07] Spoken
    So why aren't we getting
    any new members?
[07:10] Spoken
    H-Huh?
[07:15] Spoken
    Mr. Kai... Mr. Miwa...
[07:17] Spoken
    The Vanguard Club is
    riding on your shoulders.
[07:21] Spoken
    Do your best!
[07:24] Spoken
    You two aren't here to
    start a fight, are you?
[07:28] Spoken
    No! I told you! She isn't
    the leader of some girl gang!
[07:33] Spoken
    Um... we have to see a friend
    about an urgent matter.
[07:36] Spoken
    A friend, huh?
[07:38] Spoken
    Please.
[07:39] Spoken
    Wha?! Please...
[07:43] Spoken
    Try using this.
[07:46] Spoken
    Kagero, huh?
[07:47] Spoken
    We'll start when you're ready.
[07:49] Spoken
    Gotcha. I think this one'll
    be my first Vanguard...
[07:53] Spoken
    Are you ready?
[07:55] Spoken
    Okay!
[08:05] Spoken
    Stand up the Vanguard!
[08:05] Spoken
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[08:13] Spoken
    Advance Party Seeker, File!
[08:15] Spoken
    Lizard Soldier, Fargo!
[08:18] Spoken
    Royal Paladin?
[08:20] Spoken
    What's wrong?
[08:21] Spoken
    Nothing... Just felt a little nostalgic...
[08:25] Spoken
    That's good.
[08:27] Spoken
    I used to use Royal Paladin a long time ago.
[08:33] Spoken
    Long time ago?
[08:35] Spoken
    Why is this deck in my hand again?
[08:39] Spoken
    If you're a mate, you'll realize it!
[08:43] Spoken
    Mate?
SIGN    Vanguard Club
[08:49] Spoken
    We're comin' in!
[08:51] Spoken
    Oh! This is the Vanguard Club!
[08:54] Spoken
    There's no real fighting!
[08:57] Spoken
    I keep sayin', we're not here to brawl!
[08:59] Spoken
    Is Toshiki Kai around?
[09:01] Spoken
    H-He's using the Motion Figure System
    with Mr. Miwa...
[09:06] Spoken
    Let's hurry, Boss Lady!
[09:08] Spoken
    I mean... Misaki!
[09:11] Spoken
    Sorry to bother you!
[09:13] Spoken
    Phew...
[09:14] Spoken
    Please!
[09:16] Spoken
    Huh? Kai ain't here.
[09:19] Spoken
    Let's give it a rest today, huh, Morikawa?
[09:22] Spoken
    Pardon me, Mr. Mark. Sorry for the bother!
[09:25] Spoken
    Izaki! I'm not done talking!
[09:27] Spoken
    Again...
[09:29] Spoken
    What's with today? It's noisier than usual.
[09:32] Spoken
    Like how the club used to be...
[09:36] Spoken
    Used to be?
[09:38] Spoken
    I ride Embodiment of Armor, Bahr!
[09:41] Spoken
    Ride the Vanguard!
[09:43] Spoken
    Flail Seeker, Isbuzzard!
[09:48] Spoken
    Call!
[09:50] Spoken
    Attack!
[09:55] Spoken
    Turn end.
[10:01] Spoken
    They've already started!
[10:02] Spoken
    But it looks like there isn't
    anybody suspicious here.
[10:05] Spoken
    Yeah. I figured a pal of that Moress guy
    would show up to visit Kai, but...
[10:13] Spoken
    My turn!
[10:15] Spoken
    I ride Dragon Knight, Nehalem!
[10:20] Spoken
    Call!
[10:21] Spoken
    Attack!
[10:28] Spoken
    Hey, Kai, you said something
    about a "mate" before?
[10:32] Spoken
    What is that?
[10:34] Spoken
    Are you curious?
[10:35] Spoken
    Just a bit...
[10:37] Spoken
    A guy who's important to us has disappeared.
[10:47] Spoken
    He's my mate.
[10:48] Spoken
    And I'm searching for
    people who remember him...
[10:54] Spoken
    Who remember our mate!
[10:56] Spoken
    Mate... Like a close friend, huh?
[11:00] Spoken
    Stand and draw!
[11:04] Spoken
    A world without Aichi...
[11:06] Spoken
    This may be my punishment,
    but I swear I'll find him!
[11:14] Spoken
    Stand up, my avatar!
[11:17] Spoken
    The true friend within my soul... my mate!
[11:21] Spoken
    Ride the Vanguard!
[11:28] Spoken
    Blaster Blade Seeker!
[11:42] Spoken
    Blaster Blade...?
[11:58] Spoken
    Blaster Blade...?
[12:06] Spoken
    Stand up, my avatar!
[12:09] Spoken
    Blaster Blade!
[12:13] Spoken
    What was that just now?
    Why did I picture it?
[12:17] Spoken
    Call!
[12:20] Spoken
    Go, Blaster Blade!
[12:26] Spoken
    No guard!
[12:27] Spoken
    Check the drive trigger!
[12:29] Spoken
    I got a critical trigger.
[12:33] Spoken
    I give the power to Cynric,
    and the extra critical to Blaster Blade!
[12:43] Spoken
    Cynric!
[12:45] Spoken
    Guard!
[12:48] Spoken
    Turn end.
[12:50] Spoken
    Blaster Blade, huh...?
[12:52] Spoken
    But I'm not so bad myself.
[12:55] Spoken
    Stand and draw!
[12:57] Spoken
    Its apocalyptic flames will reduce
    everything in this world to ash!
[13:03] Spoken
    I ride Dragonic Overlord!
[13:17] Spoken
    How's that, Kai?!
[13:27] Spoken
    What the heck? What's wrong with him?
[13:30] Spoken
    He's remembering Blaster Blade
    and Dragonic Overlord...
[13:35] Spoken
    It's the image of the first time
    Kai and Aichi fought.
[13:40] Spoken
    Kai. Is this what you were aiming for?
[13:46] Spoken
    Picture it, Miwa!
[13:49] Spoken
    Picture...?
[13:53] Spoken
    You're amazing, just as I figured.
[13:57] Spoken
    But this is fun, Kai!
[14:01] Spoken
    How do you know Kai's name?
[14:04] Spoken
    Fighting Kai like this has been my dream.
[14:08] Spoken
    Just as I thought.
[14:10] Spoken
    You are Aichi Sendou.
[14:15] Spoken
    What is this image?
[14:20] Spoken
    So Kai gave you that card?
[14:23] Spoken
    Yes.
[14:25] Spoken
    When I was feeling down, he told me that
[14:31] Spoken
    this card will give me strength.
[14:33] Spoken
    Kai gave you a card, taught you the rules...
[14:38] Spoken
    That's unusual.
[14:42] Spoken
    It looks like you two are having a good time.
[14:45] Spoken
    I think I'll watch.
[14:48] ---
    Umm...
[14:51] Spoken
    Who are you?!
[14:55] Spoken
    Call! Cynric!
[14:59] Spoken
    Guard!
[15:00] Spoken
    Overlord attacks Blaster Blade!
[15:10] Spoken
    Berserk!
[15:18] Spoken
    5 damage...
[15:20] Spoken
    But it looks like he's the one
    who's havin' a tough time.
[15:23] Spoken
    Turn end...
[15:26] Spoken
    What are those images?
[15:28] Spoken
    Who is that guy?!
[15:31] Spoken
    Open, haloed gate!
[15:34] Spoken
    Silver wings, fly down!
[15:37] Spoken
    Ride the Vanguard!
[15:40] Spoken
    Seeker, Thing Saver Dragon!
[15:55] Spoken
    Call!
[15:57] Spoken
    I attack Burning Horn!
[16:00] Spoken
    Guard!
[16:01] Spoken
    You're always watching, Miwa.
[16:05] Spoken
    I think it's interesting.
[16:11] Spoken
    I know his name!
[16:15] Spoken
    But I can't recall it!
[16:20] Spoken
    Darn it!
[16:22] Spoken
    Guard! Intercept!
[16:25] Spoken
    Check the drive trigger.
[16:29] Spoken
    I got a draw trigger.
[16:31] Spoken
    I give the power to my other Wingal,
     and then draw.
[16:35] Spoken
    I attack with a boost from Cynric!
[16:44] Spoken
    Kai, what are these images?!
[16:48] Spoken
    What did I... no...
    Who did I forget?!
[16:52] Spoken
    I know how you feel!
[16:54] Spoken
    I felt miserable when
    I couldn't remember him.
[16:58] Spoken
    I suffered the same way!
[17:03] Spoken
    It just goes to show how
    precious those memories are!
[17:12] Spoken
    Miwa...
[17:17] Spoken
    No, I kind of get it...
[17:19] Spoken
    I've gotta remember this by
    myself... under my own power!
[17:28] Spoken
    I stand and draw!
[17:31] Spoken
    Break ride!
[17:34] Spoken
    Dragonic Overlord!
[17:38] Spoken
    Call! Fargo moves to the Soul!
[17:40] Spoken
    Overlord attacks Wingal!
[17:46] Spoken
    Come out! Break out of that shell!
[17:53] Spoken
    Come out, my memories!
[17:57] Spoken
    Twin drive!
[18:00] Spoken
    I give all the effects to Overlord!
[18:06] Spoken
    File retires!
[18:11] Spoken
    Overlord stands!
[18:14] Spoken
    Not yet?
[18:21] Spoken
    Go, Overlord!
[18:24] Spoken
    How about this?!
[18:34] Spoken
    Perfect guard...
[18:36] Spoken
    Not yet!
[18:38] Spoken
    Guard!
[18:40] Spoken
    Nehalem!
[18:42] Spoken
    Guard!
[18:44] Spoken
    Turn end...
[18:48] Spoken
    Sorry, Kai. Seems like I'm
    not qualified to be a mate.
[18:55] Spoken
    Miwa...
[18:56] Spoken
    Darn it! He was almost there!
[18:59] Spoken
    Yeah...
[19:01] Spoken
    The images aren't over. Watch!
[19:06] Spoken
    I stand and draw!
[19:08] Spoken
    Call!
[19:10] Spoken
    Soulblast!
[19:11] Spoken
    I add +5000 to the power of Thing Saver!
[19:15] Spoken
    One ray of light, extending out
    into the despair of oblivion...
[19:19] Spoken
    The light of courage that connects me
    and my mate in the darkness!
[19:25] Spoken
    Seek the mate!
[19:35] Spoken
    Line up, avatar of my soul. Legion!
[19:45] Spoken
    This is Legion...
[19:48] Spoken
    That's...
[19:55] Spoken
    You're always watching, Miwa.
[19:59] Spoken
    I think it's interesting.
[20:01] Spoken
    I-Is something strange?
[20:04] Spoken
    That's a secret!
[20:07] Spoken
    You're gonna get stronger than anything.
[20:10] Spoken
    No, you and Kai together.
[20:14] Spoken
    It's like you two are the greatest rivals.
[20:17] Spoken
    Totally fascinating...
[20:20] Spoken
    That's why I keep watching you.
[20:22] Spoken
    P-Please stop it! You're making me nervous!
[20:27] Spoken
    Legion attack!
[20:38] Spoken
    Aichi Sendou!
[20:54] Spoken
    Miwa!
[20:55] Spoken
    Did he do it?!
[21:00] Spoken
    Hey, Misaki and Ishida...
[21:03] Spoken
    It feels like I haven't
    seen you for a long time.
[21:07] Spoken
    Miwa...
[21:11] Spoken
    I've gotten a little closer to you, Aichi.
[21:18] Spoken
    Darn it! I had so much fun watching
    you and Aichi get stronger.
[21:24] Spoken
    How could I have forgotten that?
[21:27] Spoken
    What a relief!
[21:29] Spoken
    I was worried what to do if
    another weirdo came to interfere.
[21:32] Spoken
    What are you talking about?
[21:38] Spoken
    "Forget about Aichi"?
[21:40] Spoken
    That's what he said?
[21:42] Spoken
    Yeah. And he said he'd be back.
[21:46] Spoken
    As always, it's never
    boring when you're around.
[21:50] ---
    Miwa...
[21:52] Spoken
    Please!
[21:56] Spoken
    There's another guy who'll
    probably add to the fun.
[21:59] Spoken
    I'm the great Kamui Katsuragi
    of the middle school division!
[22:03] Spoken
    I heard there was a really strong
    guy in the high school division!
[22:07] Spoken
    That guy...
[22:08] Spoken
    He's the one pickin' a fight!
[22:11] Spoken
    Kamui Katsuragi...
[22:14] Spoken
    The great Kamui challenges you!
[23:56] Spoken
    Sorry I took so long, Kai.
[23:57] Spoken
    Don't worry. I knew you were a mate
    from the beginning.
[24:01] ---
    We can be all friendly later.
[24:03] ---
    Kamui Katsuragi is a tough nut to crack.
[24:06] ---
    Yeah. But he was really attached to Aichi,
[24:08] ---
    so I'm sure he'll remember.
[24:10] ---
    Next time: Naoki's Fist!
SIGN    Naoki's Fist
[24:12] ---
    Be gentle with him, though, huh?
    After all, he's like a little brother.
[24:15] ---
    Don't talk stupid!
    He ain't a guy you can hold back on!
[24:19] ---
    That's right.
[24:19] ---
    I'll totally squash him!
[24:21] ---
    Hey, now!
