[00:01] Spoken
    I can't afford to lose, ya see!
[00:03] Spoken
    Until I meet Aichi...
[00:05] Spoken
    Meet him and talk to him myself,
    I can't afford to lose my memories!
[00:11] Spoken
    I'm one of the Quatre Knights...
[00:14] Spoken
    Losing to someone like you...
[00:17] Spoken
    ...just shouldn't be!
[00:20] Spoken
    Yeah, well, it actually did happen to you.
[00:23] Spoken
    Oh, that's right. What happens
    again to the guy who loses?
[00:28] Spoken
    He gets some kind of punishment...
[00:32] Spoken
    Judgment!
[00:39] Spoken
    What happened?
[00:41] Spoken
    Serra's seal was broken!
[00:44] Spoken
    Why?!
[00:47] Spoken
    Them?!
[02:25] Spoken
    Aichi is at the end of this path.
[02:31] Spoken
    I want you to stop trying to rescue me.
[02:34] Spoken
    Stop trying to find me.
[02:39] Spoken
    Until I hear the meaning of those words
    from you directly, I'm going to...
[02:49] Spoken
    Kai!
[02:53] Spoken
    I know how you feel, but relax, relax!
[02:58] Spoken
    The way you are now,
    you'll be exhausted before you fight.
[03:01] Spoken
    Besides, you've got your
    dependable mates with you.
[03:06] Spoken
    That's right.
[03:07] Spoken
    You're in good feet, Kai!
[03:10] Spoken
    You mean "hands."
[03:12] Spoken
    Right. Sorry, guys.
[03:16] Spoken
    Don't worry about it.
[03:18] Spoken
    Yeah!
[03:22] Spoken
    Still, how long does this hall go on?
[03:27] Spoken
    At least it's a straight path.
     We won't get lost.
[03:30] Spoken
    Yeah, that's true.
[03:33] Spoken
    What?!
[03:39] Spoken
    What the heck is this?!
[03:41] Spoken
    It's turned into a dead end!
[03:44] Spoken
    No...
[03:45] Spoken
    Another passage opened?!
[03:48] Spoken
    This is...
[03:50] Spoken
    Darn it!
[03:51] Spoken
    Are we being lured?
[03:53] Spoken
    Maybe it's to get us lost.
[03:56] Spoken
    Darn it! What should we do?
[03:58] Spoken
    We'll have to follow it.
SIGN    Steel Will
[04:19] Spoken
    What is this?!
[04:20] Spoken
    Hey, Kai! Misaki!
[04:23] Spoken
    Miwa! Ishida!
[04:26] Spoken
    Hey!
[04:30] Spoken
    Nobody else is here...
[04:32] Spoken
    What, am I all alone?
[04:37] Spoken
    How did you get here?
[04:43] Spoken
    I'm shocked that you found one of our gates.
[04:46] Spoken
    It seems we underestimated you people.
[04:52] Spoken
    This was a big surprise.
[04:55] Spoken
    It seems we were as soft as this doughnut.
[04:59] Spoken
    Don't you think, Misakin?
[05:03] Spoken
    Rati...
[05:08] Spoken
    So we've been separated?
[05:13] Spoken
    Split up the team...
[05:16] Spoken
    ...and fight individually?
[05:19] Spoken
    And you're my opponent, right?
[05:22] Spoken
    Quatre Knight?
[05:25] Spoken
    I'm Philip Neve.
[05:27] Spoken
    In the name of the Quatre Knights,
    I won't allow you to get any closer to Aichi.
[05:34] Spoken
    My name is Taishi Miwa.
[05:37] Spoken
    We could exchange e-mail addresses,
[05:41] Spoken
    but unfortunately, it doesn't
    look like we can become friends.
[05:45] Spoken
    This is the day we're taking Aichi back.
[05:48] Spoken
    I won't allow that.
[05:51] Spoken
    Iron is forged into steel,
[05:54] Spoken
    and steel becomes a sword in a battle.
[05:57] Spoken
    I call upon my field!
[06:00] Spoken
    Steel Wall Prison!
[06:16] Spoken
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[06:18] Spoken
    Metalborg, Blackboi!
[06:22] Spoken
    Dragon Knight, Sahar!
[06:25] Spoken
    Attack!
[06:27] Spoken
    I ride Metalborg, Rustle Blizzard!
[06:34] Spoken
    To be honest, I'm surprised.
[06:37] Spoken
    I never thought you guys
    would find your way here.
[06:42] Spoken
    We're awesome, right?
[06:51] Spoken
    But I'm happy to have the opportunity to
    fight you like this and beat you down even more.
[06:59] Spoken
    Nice. I don't mind that kind of personality.
[07:03] Spoken
    Ur Buster!
[07:08] Spoken
    We made it this far with only one feeling.
[07:12] Spoken
    It's that we can't give up on Aichi!
[07:16] Spoken
    He's our precious mate!
[07:22] Spoken
    For my buddy...
[07:26] Spoken
    ...he's gotta be around!
[07:34] Spoken
    Hey! Everybody!
[07:38] Spoken
    Darn it! Is this their idea of a surprise?
[07:42] Spoken
    Maybe. Which means that, right now...
[07:48] Spoken
    Everyone...
[07:52] Spoken
    You say Aichi is necessary
    for your friend's sake?
[08:03] Spoken
    Yeah. He's socially awkward.
[08:06] Spoken
    He doesn't open up for anyone.
[08:09] Spoken
    And he always goes off on his own.
[08:13] Spoken
    But for some reason, I can't
    take my eyes off of him.
[08:17] Spoken
    I've always watched him from behind,
    figuring he is what he is.
[08:25] Spoken
    But that buddy of mine stopped walking away
    for the first time and started relying on us.
[08:31] Spoken
    Because Aichi changed him!
[08:33] Spoken
    Aichi, eh?
[08:35] Spoken
    Yeah. If we lose Aichi,
    I'm positive he'll regress.
[08:42] Spoken
    That's why I decided to take
    Aichi back from you guys!
[08:49] Spoken
    Let there be light! Give power
    to that hidden fiery soul!
[08:53] Spoken
    I ride...
[08:54] Spoken
    ...Purgatory Dragon, Pain Laser Dragon!
[08:59] Spoken
    Seek mate!
[09:08] Spoken
    Line up, two souls!
[09:11] Spoken
    Take revenge on the enemy with power
    that's fired up with passion and hope!
[09:15] Spoken
    Legion!
[09:20] Spoken
    Legion skill activated!
[09:30] Spoken
    Two units at once?!
[09:34] Spoken
    You're gonna give Aichi back!
[09:45] Spoken
    Twin drive!
[09:48] Spoken
    Critical trigger!
[09:50] Spoken
    I give the power to Heat Wing and
    the extra critical to my Vanguard!
[10:02] Spoken
    I see. Now I understand how Aichi
    is essential to your friend.
[10:10] Spoken
    Attack!
[10:11] Spoken
    But it's trivial!
[10:16] Spoken
    Aichi is more important than that.
[10:19] Spoken
    Huh? What do you mean?
[10:21] Spoken
    It happened a long time ago.
[10:25] Spoken
    People in my country who had different
    ideas and principles clashed,
[10:31] Spoken
    leaving the land a shambles.
[10:33] Spoken
    Their war just wouldn't end.
[10:36] Spoken
    I was sick of it, so I became a ranger
    to protect nature in an outlying area.
[10:45] Spoken
    The forest gave me comfort.
[10:54] Spoken
    You've got guts,
    bringing the war to my forest!
[11:00] Spoken
    N-No! That's not why I'm here...
[11:06] Spoken
    You're... Irving?!
[11:10] Spoken
    Neve!
[11:17] Spoken
    So you escaped?
[11:19] Spoken
    Yeah.
[11:21] Spoken
    I feel nostalgic.
[11:23] Spoken
    I seem to recall you pouring me
    coffee like this before.
[11:26] Spoken
    Remember? When we were
    all playing Vanguard at camp.
[11:30] Spoken
    Yeah. What's everyone doing now?
     How are Kerry and Alice?
[11:35] Spoken
    I don't know.
[11:36] Spoken
    I hope they're all safe...
[11:39] Spoken
    I see.
[11:41] Spoken
    Fighting among ourselves in
    our own country... it's crazy.
[11:45] Spoken
    I just hope a day comes when everyone
    can get together and laugh.
[11:50] Spoken
    Like we did when we were kids...
[11:53] Spoken
    Yeah.
[11:55] Spoken
    Oh, yeah!
[11:56] Spoken
    They're gonna have a VF Europe Circuit.
[11:59] Spoken
    You ought to be in it, Neve.
[12:02] Spoken
    Me?
[12:03] Spoken
    After all, you were the
    strongest one among us.
[12:07] Spoken
    Besides, you may be able to
    meet everyone else there.
[12:10] Spoken
    Europe Circuit, huh?
[12:13] Spoken
    Yeah. It's been a while,
    but I'll give it a shot.
[12:20] Spoken
    I kept smoothly advancing to
    the next round of the circuit.
[12:23] Spoken
    And as I did, of all things,
    my country forgot about its war
[12:27] Spoken
    and got behind me.
[12:31] Spoken
    Enthusiasm has the power to make people
    forget their differences of opinion
[12:33] Spoken
    and make their hearts one.
[12:37] Spoken
    There it is!
[12:39] Spoken
    The winner of the VF Europe Circuit
     is... Philip Neve!
[12:48] Spoken
    Neve!
[12:49] Spoken
    You did it, Neve!
[12:51] Spoken
    Congratulations!
[12:52] Spoken
    Irving! And Kerry and Alice!
[12:56] Spoken
    You're all okay!
[12:58] Spoken
    It's amazing! To see everyone
    in our country so happy...
[13:03] Spoken
    Neve! Neve! Neve!
[13:07] Spoken
    In that moment, a country torn apart
    by neverending conflict had become one.
[13:14] Spoken
    If I could continue being a champion,
    the country's peace would be preserved.
[13:20] Spoken
    I decided to push forward
    down the Vanguard path.
[13:23] Spoken
    But then that demon appeared.
[13:27] Spoken
    Demon?!
[13:29] Spoken
    Link Joker.
[13:44] Spoken
    Link Joker.
[13:46] Spoken
    That demon pushed my country back into war.
[14:02] Spoken
    Wake up! Irving! Kerry! Alice!
[14:07] Spoken
    Fight me.
[14:08] Spoken
    Darn it!
[14:16] Spoken
    Am I gonna lose it again?
[14:18] Spoken
    My peaceful country?
[14:20] Spoken
    The smiling faces of our countrymen
    that my friend wished for?
[14:35] Spoken
    Huh? Neve...
[14:37] Spoken
    Irving!
[14:40] Spoken
    What are we doing here?
[14:43] Spoken
    I don't remember, either...
[14:46] Spoken
    Everyone, you're back to normal!
[14:51] Spoken
    Neve?
[14:52] Spoken
    What's wrong, Neve?
[14:55] Spoken
    Why are you crying?
[14:59] Spoken
    He was the hero that saved my friends...
    my countrymen... and our country.
[15:07] Spoken
    You don't just call him a "mate"!
[15:10] Spoken
    Stand and draw!
[15:13] Spoken
    Call!
[15:16] Spoken
    Seek mate!
[15:25] Spoken
    From beyond the horizon, become the
    light that illuminates the earth!
[15:29] Spoken
    Legion!
[15:35] Spoken
    Call!
[15:37] Spoken
    Mist Ghost's skill!
[15:38] Spoken
    Both Vanguards get +4000 power!
[15:43] Spoken
    Attack!
[15:49] Spoken
    38000 power?!
[15:52] Spoken
    The wish of my friend!
    The wish of my countrymen!
[15:55] Spoken
    And my homeland, which prides
    itself on its wilderness!
[15:58] Spoken
    You can't understand the weight
    of what I'm protecting!
[16:05] Spoken
    It's no use! You can't put down
    a unit that's grade 1 or higher!
[16:08] Spoken
    What?!
[16:10] Spoken
    Twin drive!
[16:14] Spoken
    Draw trigger!
[16:21] Spoken
    I can feel the weight of his responsibility!
[16:26] Spoken
    Metalborg, Drion!
[16:32] Spoken
    Guard!
[16:34] Spoken
    One more unit!
[16:39] Spoken
    Guard!
[16:48] Spoken
    I understand your responsibility.
[16:52] Spoken
    You're burdened with a country,
[16:55] Spoken
    so I'm sure you see what I
    wanna protect as insignificant.
[16:59] Spoken
    But the weight of my feelings for
    Kai and Aichi is no different!
[17:06] Spoken
    That's what I think!
[17:10] Spoken
    Stand and draw!
[17:12] Spoken
    Again, I ride Pain Laser!
[17:15] Spoken
    Call!
[17:16] Spoken
    Seek mate!
[17:26] Spoken
    Jeez. Can't be helped...
[17:28] Spoken
    Legion!
[17:38] Spoken
    Attack!
[17:45] Spoken
    Guard!
[17:46] Spoken
    Darn it! Twin drive!
[17:52] Spoken
    Heat Wing Dragon's skill activates!
[17:55] Spoken
    I retire one of your rear-guards!
[18:01] Spoken
    If I can just get a critical here...
[18:10] Spoken
    Draw trigger...
[18:15] Spoken
    Help me, Dragon Knight, Gia!
[18:25] Spoken
    Let's all fight together! Please!
[18:31] Spoken
    Guard!
[18:38] Spoken
    Heat Wing, attack!
[18:46] Spoken
    End of the line.
[18:50] Spoken
    Nope! Not yet!
[18:57] Spoken
    Call!
[18:59] Spoken
    Rustle Blizzard attacks!
[19:04] Spoken
    Counterblast!
[19:13] Spoken
    Guard!
[19:14] Spoken
    Black Doctor's boost...
[19:22] Spoken
    I'm sorry, everyone...
[19:26] Spoken
    Aichi...
[19:28] Spoken
    Kai...
[19:43] Spoken
    Guess I lost.
[19:45] Spoken
    I got all my memories of Aichi back
    after forgetting about him once...
[19:50] Spoken
    ...and now I'm gonna forget again?
[19:53] Spoken
    It only hurts for a moment...
[19:55] Spoken
    ...because you're going to forget everything.
[19:58] Spoken
    Can I ask you one thing?
[20:00] Spoken
    What is it?
[20:01] Spoken
    You're indebted to Aichi, right?
[20:04] Spoken
    Then why do you keep him
    shut up in a place like this?
[20:10] Spoken
    It doesn't matter if you tell me, right?
[20:12] Spoken
    After all, I'm gonna forget it anyway.
[20:16] Spoken
    It's so war doesn't break out
    all over the world again.
[20:21] Spoken
    Aichi has sealed himself away for
    that purpose, and we protect him.
[20:26] Spoken
    Aichi did it?
[20:30] Spoken
    That's enough.
[20:33] Spoken
    Memory... Judgment!
[20:48] Spoken
    Huh?
[20:52] Spoken
    What was I doing again?
[20:57] Spoken
    There he is! Miwa!
[20:59] Spoken
    Morikawa! Izaki!
[21:01] Spoken
    Where's Kai?!
[21:04] Spoken
    I came here to show him that I'm number one!
[21:09] Spoken
    Yeah, too bad he's not here.
[21:11] Spoken
    Kai?
[21:13] Spoken
    Um, Kai is... with someone else...
[21:19] Spoken
    Huh?
[21:20] Spoken
    Someone else?
[21:21] Spoken
    Yeah. I mean, probably
    at a different card shop.
[21:25] Spoken
    He's the kind of guy who
    always goes off on his own.
[21:28] Spoken
    All right, I'm gonna search for him!
[21:29] Spoken
    What is he, a suspect?
[21:31] Spoken
    Miwa, you help, too!
[21:33] Spoken
    Sure.
[21:34] Spoken
    The criminal returned to
    the scene of the crime.
[21:41] Spoken
    Misakin! Is right there okay?
[21:57] Spoken
    We keep walkin' and walkin'...
[22:00] Spoken
    How long does this hallway go on?
[22:05] Spoken
    He's here.
[22:08] Spoken
    I'm sure he's just up ahead!
[22:19] Spoken
    Aichi...
[23:55] Spoken
    I didn't think we'd get the chance
    to fight again so soon, Misakin!
[23:58] Spoken
    I wanted to fight you again!
[24:00] Spoken
    Me too!
[24:02] Spoken
    I wanted to express the importance
    of my mate... my friend!
[24:06] Spoken
    Miwa, Kamui, Tokura... My mates...
[24:09] Spoken
    Even if we're separated, I believe in you!
[24:12] Spoken
    Next time: What Doesn't Change!
SIGN    What Doesn't Change
[24:14] Spoken
    But I can't get rid of this anxiety
    that burns in my mind!
[24:17] Spoken
    No matter what happens,
    I'll still like you, Misakin!
[24:19] Spoken
    But that's it!
[24:20] Spoken
    Here I go, Rati!
