**[00:08] Spoken**
Seriously?! Marco's gonna lose?!
**[00:11] Spoken**
Who is that girl?
**[00:13] Spoken**
I don't know.
**[00:14] Spoken**
She just suddenly appeared and
started winning over and over.
**[00:18] Spoken**
Nobody is in her league!
**[00:21] Spoken**
Who are you?!
**[00:24] Spoken**
I'm Rati. Rati Curti!
**[00:28] Spoken**
Well, listen up, Rati!
**[00:30] Spoken**
I only lost because I let my guard down.
**[00:33] Spoken**
I'm better than that!
**[00:37] Spoken**
You doubt me?!
**[00:39] Spoken**
Fine, I'll prove it to you.
**[00:41] Spoken**
Fight me one more time!
**[00:43] Spoken**
That's not fair, Marco!
**[00:45] Spoken**
You already lost, remember?
**[00:48] Spoken**
You should talk! You lost just now!
**[00:52] Spoken**
Well, I haven't fought you yet!
**[00:55] Spoken**
H-Hey!
**[00:57] Spoken**
No cutting!
**[00:59] Spoken**
Don't argue! Let's fight in order!
**[01:03] Spoken**
Rati!
**[01:07] Spoken**
Papa...
**[01:09] Spoken**
Papa?
**[01:11] Spoken**
You're going?
**[01:12] Spoken**
Yeah. See you.
**[01:19] Spoken**
Are we going to the next town?
**[01:21] Spoken**
Yeah.
**[01:25] Spoken**
I see...
**[01:37] Spoken**
Sorry, Rati.
**[01:39] Spoken**
It's okay.
**[01:40] Spoken**
As long as I have you and your
doughnuts, I'm satisfied.
**[03:24] Spoken**
Come, my fairies.
**[03:32] Spoken**
Fairy Masquerade Prison!
**[03:44] Spoken**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[03:47] Spoken**
Regalia of Prayers, Pray Angel!
**[03:50] Spoken**
Witch of Banquets, Lir!
**[03:53] Spoken**
Ride!
**[03:58] Spoken**
I didn't think I'd get to
fight you so soon, Misakin!
**[04:04] Spoken**
Ride!
**[04:05] Spoken**
Call!
**[04:08] Spoken**
Oh? I thought this would happen.
**[04:17] Spoken**
Why?
**[04:19] Spoken**
You Quatre Knights stood in our way,
**[04:23] Spoken**
so of course it would
end up with us fighting.
**[04:26] Spoken**
I ride Norn!
**[04:29] Spoken**
Call!
**[04:31] Spoken**
Hey, Misakin, why are you and the
others so obsessed with Aichi?
**[04:37] Spoken**
Obsessed?
**[04:39] Spoken**
Aichi is our mate!
**[04:42] Spoken**
Aside from that, I wanted to
fight you once more.
**[04:47] Spoken**
Ah! I beat you,
so you want to get me back!
**[04:50] Spoken**
That's not it.
**[04:52] Spoken**
I can't afford to lose for Aichi's sake.
**[04:55] Spoken**
Still, my purpose in fighting you
isn't about winning or losing.
**[04:59] Spoken**
I want to be your friend!
**[05:02] Spoken**
Friends? With me?
**[05:05] Spoken**
I want to teach you...
**[05:08] Spoken**
...about mates. About friends!
***SIGN*** What Doesn't Change
**[05:19] Spoken**
But why? We're enemies.
**[05:23] Spoken**
I have a feeling we've got a lot in common.
**[05:27] Spoken**
You and me.
**[05:28] Spoken**
Okay, then let me ask you.
**[05:31] Spoken**
What's a friend? Is it really that precious?
**[05:34] Spoken**
Of course!
**[05:36] Spoken**
I'm not so sure...
**[05:38] Spoken**
What do you want to say?
**[05:40] Spoken**
Isn't there something that's a
lot more precious than friends?
**[05:47] Spoken**
More than friends?
**[05:49] Spoken**
I sold doughnuts with my father
as we traveled the world.
**[05:59] Spoken**
Thank you.
**[06:02] Spoken**
During vacation season, we went
to towns along the southern coast.
**[06:06] Spoken**
When it snowed, we'd go to
a resort area in the north.
**[06:09] Spoken**
Whenever there was a festival, we went west.
And for celebrations, we went east.
**[06:15] Spoken**
We went everywhere people gathered.
**[06:18] Spoken**
Thanks.
**[06:23] Spoken**
We stayed in each town for a week at most.
**[06:27] Spoken**
So I didn't know how to talk
to kids my own age back then.
**[06:35] Spoken**
But I never thought of myself as lonely.
**[06:39] Spoken**
After all...
**[06:41] Spoken**
...as long as I had Papa and
his doughnuts, I was okay.
**[06:50] Spoken**
But it seems Papa was worried about me.
**[06:58] Spoken**
And one day...
**[07:01] Spoken**
Rati, I'm going to give you something good.
**[07:04] Spoken**
What is it?
**[07:07] Spoken**
It's called Vanguard.
**[07:10] Spoken**
You fight friends with those cards.
**[07:13] Spoken**
Fight?
**[07:15] Spoken**
That's right. In this game,
you're... um, what was it again?
**[07:21] Spoken**
Oh, yes.
**[07:23] Spoken**
Right now, you're an astral body that
appears on Cray, a planet much like Earth.
**[07:29] Spoken**
Go on, try to picture it.
**[07:32] Spoken**
Picture it?
**[07:46] Spoken**
This is... the planet Cray.
**[07:51] Spoken**
It's beautiful!
**[07:55] Spoken**
In that moment, something precious besides
Papa and his doughnuts materialized.
**[08:01] Spoken**
I was fascinated by the beauty
of Cray and blown away.
**[08:07] Spoken**
And at the same time,
I became lost in Vanguard.
**[08:14] Spoken**
Fianna attacks!
**[08:16] Spoken**
After all, if I played Vanguard,
I could go to Cray anytime.
**[08:22] Spoken**
I could see that gorgeous scenery.
**[08:26] Spoken**
After that, every time
we went to a new town,
**[08:31] Spoken**
the first thing I'd do was
look for Vanguard fighters.
**[08:34] Spoken**
Attack!
**[08:35] Spoken**
You beat me!
**[08:37] Spoken**
Darn it!
**[08:39] Spoken**
One more time! Once more!
**[08:42] Spoken**
I guess seeing me like that relieved Papa.
**[08:46] Spoken**
I'd become proactive
about making new friends.
**[08:51] Spoken**
Except...
**[08:54] Spoken**
...those fighters weren't your friends?
**[08:59] Spoken**
Well, yeah, since no matter
how many times we fought,
**[09:03] Spoken**
I'd be saying goodbye in a week.
**[09:06] Spoken**
That's...
**[09:08] Spoken**
But it couldn't be helped, you know?
**[09:10] Spoken**
Nothing's absolute in this world.
**[09:16] Spoken**
I learned that while traveling
around the world with Papa.
**[09:24] Spoken**
Even once-flourishing civilizations and
great empires that dominated the world
**[09:30] Spoken**
always went to ruin and
disappeared at some point.
**[09:33] Spoken**
Nothing lasts forever in this world.
**[09:37] Spoken**
I realized that everything is a mirage.
**[09:42] Spoken**
Even friends and friendship aren't eternal.
**[09:46] Spoken**
And even people you treasure will someday...
**[09:51] Spoken**
But the planet Cray is different.
**[09:55] Spoken**
The planet Cray is in my heart and
the hearts of all Vanguard fighters.
**[10:04] Spoken**
As long as people fight with Vanguard,
**[10:07] Spoken**
the image of Cray will last,
never to disappear.
**[10:13] Spoken**
Or so I thought...
**[10:16] Spoken**
But Link Joker appeared.
**[10:20] Spoken**
That's right.
**[10:27] Spoken**
Before I knew it, fighters all
over the world were Reversed...
**[10:35] Spoken**
...and a time of destruction
closed in on Cray,
**[10:38] Spoken**
the planet I thought would last forever.
**[10:43] Spoken**
I wasn't strong enough to do anything.
**[10:53] Spoken**
But then Aichi saved me.
**[11:11] Spoken**
I would do anything Aichi asked of me.
**[11:16] Spoken**
That's how I'm repaying him.
**[11:19] Spoken**
I would sacrifice anything for that.
**[11:23] Spoken**
Of course, I don't need friends either.
**[11:26] Spoken**
So after this fight is over,
it's goodbye, Misakin.
**[11:31] Spoken**
That's crazy talk!
**[11:33] Spoken**
Why? I'm fighting for someone
who's important to me.
**[11:37] Spoken**
It's the same as you, Misakin.
**[11:38] Spoken**
No, it's not!
**[11:40] Spoken**
Aichi doesn't want this!
**[11:43] Spoken**
How can you be so sure?
**[11:46] Spoken**
More than anything, Aichi is my mate.
**[11:48] Spoken**
He cares about his friends deeply!
**[11:51] Spoken**
Isn't that just how you want Aichi to be?
**[11:57] Spoken**
Maybe.
**[11:59] Spoken**
But to confirm it either way,
I can't afford to lose to you!
**[12:06] Spoken**
Call!
**[12:07] Spoken**
Skill activated!
**[12:09] Spoken**
I move Achlis from the Drop Zone to the Soul!
**[12:12] Spoken**
Midnight Regalia, Nyx's Soulblast!
**[12:17] Spoken**
Since I moved Norn and Achlis
from the Soul to the Drop Zone,
**[12:20] Spoken**
I can activate their skills!
**[12:23] Spoken**
Nyx gets +10000 power!
**[12:27] Spoken**
You're putting units into the Soul
to do Soulblasts to increase power...
**[12:33] Spoken**
You're serious, huh, Misakin?
**[12:35] Spoken**
I told you. I'm not going to lose to you!
**[12:39] Spoken**
Nyx, attack Serva!
**[12:45] Spoken**
Barrier Witch, Grainne!
**[12:47] Spoken**
Quintet Wall!
**[12:50] Spoken**
36000 shield!
**[12:52] Spoken**
I can't lose either, Misakin.
**[13:02] Spoken**
Again?!
**[13:04] Spoken**
How many times is this?!
**[13:05] Spoken**
Don't lose your cool, Ishida.
**[13:08] Spoken**
This is their idea of hospitality.
**[13:11] Spoken**
And we're the guests.
**[13:13] Spoken**
Yeah. You're right.
**[13:17] Spoken**
Warrior imbued with the power of a god,
**[13:20] Spoken**
all bow down before that noble power!
**[13:24] Spoken**
I ride...
**[13:26] Spoken**
Cosmic Regalia, CEO Yggdrasill!
**[13:31] Spoken**
I call Hemera and move three cards
from the Drop Zone to the Soul!
**[13:36] Spoken**
Seek mate!
**[13:46] Spoken**
Legion!
**[13:52] Spoken**
I move Pray Angel to the Soul.
**[13:54] Spoken**
Then I use its skill to send
three cards from the deck to the Soul.
**[13:57] Spoken**
Watch! This is the power of my mates!
**[14:02] Spoken**
Yggdrasill! Norn! Legion attack!
**[14:08] Spoken**
By putting Norn and Achlis in the Drop Zone,
my Vanguard gets +5000 power.
**[14:13] Spoken**
That's a total of +20000 power!
**[14:16] Spoken**
On top of that, I get an extra critical.
**[14:19] Spoken**
And you can only protect your Vanguard
with grade zero units.
**[14:25] Spoken**
Wow! So this is the power of
your mates, huh?
**[14:30] Spoken**
That's right.
**[14:32] Spoken**
I'm fighting with all of our power
put together.
**[14:35] Spoken**
That's the power of mates!
**[14:41] Spoken**
The power of friendship, huh?
**[14:43] Spoken**
Certainly, I may not be able
to block this attack.
**[14:48] Spoken**
But I told you, remember?
Nothing is absolute.
**[14:53] Spoken**
Don't tell me...
**[14:55] Spoken**
There is this, for instance!
**[14:58] Spoken**
In my hand, I had exactly four...
**[15:02] Spoken**
...grade zero cards!
**[15:06] Spoken**
I don't believe it...
**[15:08] Spoken**
Now you get it, right?
**[15:09] Spoken**
That's about how strong mates are.
**[15:16] Spoken**
It looks like you're having fun, Rati.
**[15:18] Spoken**
Sorry. That wasn't funny?
**[15:21] Spoken**
But anybody would have fun when a fight
goes just the way they want it to, right?
**[15:27] Spoken**
Up to now, I've had all kinds of fights,
**[15:32] Spoken**
but nothing is more fun
than a fight with a friend.
**[15:37] Spoken**
I told you, I'm not your friend...
**[15:39] Spoken**
Picture it!
**[15:42] Spoken**
The time before you knew about Vanguard!
**[15:46] Spoken**
The days when you were young,
hiding behind your Papa!
**[15:55] Spoken**
Didn't you want friends at the time?
**[16:00] Spoken**
Well, that was...
**[16:06] Spoken**
You wanted to play together.
**[16:09] Spoken**
You wanted to talk.
**[16:12] Spoken**
But you didn't have the courage to speak up.
**[16:18] Spoken**
Your Papa knew what was going on.
**[16:21] Spoken**
So he entrusted that courage to Vanguard
and gave it to you.
**[16:37] Spoken**
Cray is a wonderful world...
**[16:41] Spoken**
...because it gave you courage
when you were shy.
**[16:44] Spoken**
But I still don't need any friends...
**[16:47] Spoken**
Is that really true?
**[16:49] Spoken**
Picture it.
**[16:51] Spoken**
Just as you picture Cray, picture all
the fighters you've gone up against!
**[16:57] Spoken**
Your friends!
**[17:07] Spoken**
Everyone...
**[17:14] Spoken**
I'm sure you remember them.
**[17:16] Spoken**
You can't have forgotten.
**[17:18] Spoken**
After all, just as Cray is in your heart,
**[17:23] Spoken**
your friends are in your heart.
**[17:29] Spoken**
And mine are in my heart, too.
**[17:33] Spoken**
Even if he tries to break off contact,
even if we can't meet again,
**[17:38] Spoken**
the person who's dear to me
is right here... always...
**[17:43] Spoken**
Always...
**[17:54] Spoken**
Misakin, wow, I'm impressed.
**[17:58] Spoken**
Just a little more and
you would've won me over.
**[18:03] Spoken**
But you're forgetting something
important, Misakin.
**[18:08] Spoken**
You've forgotten Aichi once already.
**[18:13] Spoken**
Can you say that Aichi was
in your heart then?
**[18:20] Spoken**
Sorry! That was mean, huh?
**[18:23] Spoken**
But I don't want to lose Cray.
**[18:27] Spoken**
Just like you don't want
to forget about Aichi.
**[18:31] Spoken**
And for that purpose,
I can't lose this fight.
**[18:35] Spoken**
I don't have the luxury of thinking
of my opponent as a friend.
**[18:39] Spoken**
I call Seeking Witch, Securna!
**[18:43] Spoken**
Skill activated!
**[18:44] Spoken**
Decrease Yggdrasil's power!
**[18:52] Spoken**
And then I call Securna!
**[19:02] Spoken**
Well, Misakin?
**[19:04] Spoken**
How do you feel after I've whittled
down your power of friendship?
**[19:09] Spoken**
Now you understand that friendship
is just a mirage, right?
**[19:17] Spoken**
Fianna and Femme legion attack!
**[19:31] Spoken**
Heal trigger!
**[19:34] Spoken**
You resist to the very end, huh?
**[19:37] Spoken**
Just as you have something
you want to protect,
**[19:40] Spoken**
I have something precious.
**[19:44] Spoken**
I see.
**[19:45] Spoken**
Then I guess you'll just have to
forget about Aichi one more time.
**[19:53] Spoken**
Whoever loses this fight will
receive Memory Judgment.
**[19:58] Spoken**
The person who receives that judgment
will lose all memories related to Aichi.
**[20:06] Spoken**
The final blow!
**[20:08] Spoken**
Witch of Ruination, Scathach!
**[20:17] Spoken**
This time for sure, it's goodbye.
**[20:21] Spoken**
Again, I couldn't reach you, Aichi...
**[20:24] Spoken**
Or Rati's heart, either.
**[20:28] Spoken**
Bye bye, Misakin.
**[20:30] Spoken**
Thank you.
**[20:32] Spoken**
This fight was fun.
**[20:36] Spoken**
Rati...
**[20:38] Spoken**
Memory Judgment!
**[20:55] Spoken**
You're back, Misaki?
**[20:58] Spoken**
Shin...
**[21:00] Spoken**
Sorry to bug you as soon as you
stepped in, but please open this.
**[21:04] Spoken**
I have to bring in another box.
**[21:07] Spoken**
Sure.
**[21:16] Spoken**
What's wrong, Misaki?
**[21:18] Spoken**
Are you not feeling well?
**[21:21] Spoken**
I don't know...
**[21:24] Spoken**
But I feel like I've forgotten
something important.
**[21:30] Spoken**
Something I should never have
forgotten... and yet...
**[21:39] Spoken**
That's right.
**[21:41] Spoken**
I don't mind making any sacrifices
to protect Cray.
**[21:50] Spoken**
Strange...
**[21:52] Spoken**
This doughnut is salty.
**[22:00] Spoken**
You're Gaillard!
**[22:03] Spoken**
Kamui Katsuragi...
**[22:05] Spoken**
I commend you for making it this far.
**[22:08] Spoken**
However, you shall go no further!
**[22:11] Spoken**
I don't know what's goin' on here,
**[22:14] Spoken**
but this saves me some searchin' time.
**[22:16] Spoken**
Fight me, Gaillard!
**[23:55] Spoken**
Kamui Katsuragi, I hear
you're quite a fighter.
**[23:58] Spoken**
As always, they look down on me.
**[24:02] Spoken**
Sorry. I apologize if I touched a nerve.
**[24:05] Spoken**
There ain't no need!
**[24:06] Spoken**
You can put on airs, but the Great Kamui
is gonna blow you away.
**[24:09] Spoken**
Wait for us, Aichi.
**[24:11] Spoken**
We want to hear the truth from you!
**[24:14] Spoken**
Next time: Vow of the Blue Flames!
***SIGN*** Vow of the Blue Flames
**[24:17] Spoken**
What is the truth?!
**[24:18] Spoken**
I'm gonna blow you to
the end of the universe!
**[24:21] Spoken**
Interesting!
