[00:02] ---
    Steel warriors!
[00:04] ---
    Come here! Answer the call of your brethren!
[00:07] ---
    Superior seek mate!
[00:13] ---
    Line up, two steel warriors that gleam
    as if to light up the land!
[00:18] ---
    Legion!
[00:27] ---
    Aichi...
[00:29] ---
    This is the strength of my feelings!
[00:35] ---
    Aichi.
[00:36] ---
    I swear I'll get you back to your old self!
[02:21] ---
    Aichi!
[02:22] ---
    Please remember!
[02:24] ---
    Remember why you're here!
[02:26] ---
    You chose to seal yourself away
    to save people!
[02:36] ---
    You mustn't be possessed by Link Joker!
[03:14] ---
    Aichi! Deep inside your chest is your heart!
[03:19] ---
    Link Joker shouldn't be there!
[03:22] ---
    The people who should be in your heart...
[03:25] ---
    ...are your friends! Your mates!
[03:31] ---
    Kourin told me...
[03:34] ---
    ...that you have friends you risked
    your life to try to protect.
[03:39] ---
    I'm going to put them back
    inside your chest!
[03:42] ---
    I'm talking about your precious mates!
[03:49] ---
    Call!
[03:52] ---
    Remember the fights with your mates!
[03:56] ---
    Remember the passionate fights in which
    you could understand each other's hearts.
[04:02] ---
    Sin Buster's skill!
[04:04] ---
    Fatal Cold Steel!
[04:07] ---
    You can't use grade 1 or
    higher units to guard!
[04:12] ---
    This way, Aichi can't use a
    perfect guard or Quintet Wall.
[04:21] ---
    My feelings, reach him!
[04:52] ---
    Aichi!
[04:54] ---
    Is Aichi's heart...?
SIGN    Aichi Awakens
[05:14] ---
    Imaginary Plane Dragon.
[05:17] ---
    Seek mate.
[05:29] ---
    Legion.
[05:36] ---
    Legion skill activated.
[05:40] ---
    Three rear-guard units...
[05:42] ---
    Lock!
[05:51] ---
    Call.
[05:56] ---
    Attack.
[06:03] ---
    Attack.
[06:12] ---
    Bryknuckle!
[06:16] ---
    Quintet Wall!
[06:34] ---
    Neve is going to attack next.
[06:36] ---
    But at this rate, he won't be
    able to do any decent attacks.
[06:41] ---
    Three of his rear-guards are locked.
[06:44] ---
    Only Neve's Vanguard can attack.
[06:49] ---
    On top of that, it's
    impossible to increase power
[06:52] ---
    by linking with a rear-guard,
    Dimension Police's specialty.
[07:00] ---
    I won't give up this easily.
[07:03] ---
    Besides, your heart
[07:05] ---
    actually wants to awaken!
[07:12] ---
    Can you remember, Aichi?
[07:16] ---
    Remember the time you came to my country.
[07:30] ---
    I have to seal away the Link Joker within me.
[07:38] ---
    Although that means sealing myself away...
[07:44] ---
    I want you
[07:46] ---
    to help me.
[07:49] ---
    At the time, I thought...
[07:52] ---
    This man...
[07:53] ---
    Does he intend to save the world...
[07:56] ---
    ...even if it means sacrificing himself?
[08:00] ---
    Neve?
[08:03] ---
    But I had my doubts.
[08:07] ---
    How far was he prepared to go?
[08:13] ---
    Aichi Sendou, let's fight.
[08:22] ---
    Just how serious was he?
[08:25] ---
    Fighters can confirm that through fighting.
[08:29] ---
    That's what I thought at the time.
[08:33] ---
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[08:36] ---
    I followed the path of Vanguard
[08:39] ---
    to protect my fellow countrymen.
[08:43] ---
    So I understood.
[08:48] ---
    Aichi was the same as me.
[08:50] ---
    He was seriously trying
    to protect his brethren.
[08:53] ---
    No. Not just the citizens
    of his own country...
[08:57] ---
    He was trying to protect fellow
    human beings all over the world.
[09:04] ---
    After our fight was over,
[09:06] ---
    I had my answer.
[09:08] ---
    The man before me was serious.
[09:12] ---
    More than me,
[09:14] ---
    he had feelings for all of humanity.
[09:20] ---
    I lost, Aichi, my lord.
[09:25] ---
    Y-You don't need to say "lord"!
[09:27] ---
    But that's how you deserve to be addressed.
[09:36] ---
    I knew a huge, warm heart like that...
[09:40] ---
    ...couldn't sleep forever!
[09:47] ---
    If my feelings reach you,
[09:49] ---
    I'm sure you'll come to your senses!
[09:52] ---
    Call!
[09:54] ---
    Metalborg Operator, Kilika!
[09:56] ---
    Give power to your brethren, the heroes
[10:00] ---
    Sin Buster and Ur Buster!
[10:04] ---
    Then I call another Kilika!
[10:07] ---
    Again, I give my compatriots power!
[10:14] ---
    He used an empty rear-guard
    circle to increase his power?!
[10:19] ---
    I call Mist Ghost!
[10:23] ---
    Now give power to your brothers-in-arms!
[10:28] ---
    He increased his power, even with
    all those rear-guards locked...
[10:33] ---
    Plus, with Neve's attacks,
[10:35] ---
    Achi can't use perfect guards
    or a Quintet Wall!
[10:40] ---
    I put all of my soul
[10:42] ---
    into Sin Buster and Ur Buster!
[10:45] ---
    I'm gonna strike Aichi!
[10:49] ---
    Reach him, my passionate feelings!
[10:52] ---
    Shatter Link Joker's evil,
    and awaken Aichi's heart!
[11:01] ---
    Guard.
[11:02] ---
    What?!
[11:04] ---
    He had that many
    grade 0 guards in his hand?
[11:10] ---
    Intercept.
[12:00] ---
    A 40000 attack didn't get through?
[12:05] ---
    My feelings didn't reach him?
[12:15] ---
    Lock.
[12:21] ---
    Call.
[12:23] ---
    Attack.
[12:24] ---
    Guard!
[12:26] ---
    Imaginary Plane Dragon and Hafnium attack...
[12:32] ---
    ...Aichi?
[12:34] ---
    Attack.
[12:44] ---
    Is this the end?
[12:47] ---
    He couldn't...
[12:49] ---
    ...return Aichi to normal.
[13:00] ---
    I'm going to be judged by my prison.
[13:03] ---
    The power of people and
    the strength of my feelings,
[13:06] ---
    come to me at the critical moment!
[13:09] ---
    Judgment!
[13:40] ---
    Aichi, my lord...
[13:49] ---
    Aichi!
[14:00] ---
    Neve...
[14:03] ---
    Aichi...
[14:06] ---
    Neve...
[14:13] ---
    What did I do?!
[14:17] ---
    My attacks didn't get through,
[14:20] ---
    but it looks like my feelings did.
[14:24] ---
    I'm sorry...
[14:40] ---
    Jeez!
[14:44] ---
    No!
[14:47] ---
    I can't go on...
[14:54] ---
    Serra!
[14:55] ---
    Thank goodness you're here...
[14:58] ---
    Tell me, what's happening?
[15:01] ---
    What does all this mean?
[15:03] ---
    I feel like I ran a marathon!
[15:06] ---
    Oh dear...
[15:08] ---
    But you don't have to run anymore.
[15:12] ---
    Rati, your path ends here.
[15:17] ---
    Because we're going to fight here.
[15:22] ---
    What are you talking about?
[15:24] ---
    Something happened to Aichi's seals.
[15:27] ---
    This is no time to fight!
[15:31] ---
    That's the reason we're going to fight.
[15:35] ---
    I want to release the seals.
[15:40] ---
    If you do that, Link Joker will be set free!
[15:44] ---
    That's my goal.
[15:47] ---
    Serra...
[15:50] ---
    How much power does it have?
[15:53] ---
    What happened all over the world?
[15:56] ---
    You saw it clearly with your own eyes.
[16:09] ---
    If one possessed that power,
    nothing would be impossible.
[16:13] ---
    Don't you think so?
[16:16] ---
    However...
[16:17] ---
    ...when they had all that power,
[16:20] ---
    Takuto Tatsunagi and Toshiki Kai
    let it slip away.
[16:27] ---
    Aichi Sendou beat them on his own.
[16:30] ---
    How pathetic...
[16:33] ---
    Those two didn't deserve to use Link Joker.
[16:39] ---
    Now, me on the other hand,
[16:41] ---
    I have confidence that I can
    achieve what they couldn't!
[16:46] ---
    Serra, what are you saying?
[16:49] ---
    It'll be possible for me to obtain everything.
[16:52] ---
    I'll be able to do anything.
[16:55] ---
    Everything in our world, as well as...
[17:00] ---
    ...everything on your beloved planet Cray.
[17:05] ---
    Are you being serious?!
[17:07] ---
    Yes, of course.
[17:10] ---
    You were inspired by Aichi and
    became one of the Quatre Knights
[17:14] ---
    as a favor to him!
[17:17] ---
    Didn't you say that?!
[17:19] ---
    Certainly, he did inspire me.
[17:22] ---
    I was fascinated by the being in front of me.
[17:27] ---
    Except...
[17:30] ---
    Link Joker embedded
     a seed inside my body.
[17:38] ---
    ...what attracted me...
[17:42] ---
    ...wasn't Aichi Sendou himself...
[17:46] ---
    ...but the seed within him.
[17:53] ---
    I'd been through hell
    in the Serra family wars.
[17:59] ---
    Thanks to that, I have no difficulty
    wheeling and dealing behind the scenes.
[18:03] ---
    Using Toshiki Kai and the others
[18:06] ---
    would create the opening
    I needed to release the seals.
[18:09] ---
    But in order to accomplish that,
[18:12] ---
    I had to let them know that we
    Quatre Knights would lead to Aichi.
[18:21] ---
    I stirred you three up, and had you fight
    Toshiki Kai and his friends.
[18:30] ---
    Of course, I'm also the one
    who called them here.
[18:34] ---
    And losing to Naoki Ishida was also...
[18:37] ---
    ...done to remove one of the seals.
[18:40] ---
    How could I ever lose to him otherwise?
[18:45] ---
    And for them,
[18:48] ---
    it was their first victory
    against the Quatre Knights.
[18:51] ---
    It gave them a lot of confidence.
[18:55] ---
    And if that confidence increased
    their determination,
[18:58] ---
    they'd be able to bring out
    even more ability than usual.
[19:04] ---
    Especially Toshiki Kai...
[19:07] ---
    He worked very hard for me.
[19:13] ---
    He performed wonderfully,
    exactly as my scenario called for.
[19:18] ---
    Which brings me to you, Rati Curti...
[19:21] ---
    I want you to dance for me, as well.
[19:27] ---
    And then, I'll be able to completely release
[19:31] ---
    Aichi Sendou and Link Joker!
[19:35] ---
    Got it! Fine, I'll fight you!
[19:38] ---
    But I'm definitely gonna win!
[19:40] ---
    Serra, you're treating everyone as toys.
[19:43] ---
    Aichi and the others!
[19:46] ---
    But I won't let you make my Cray
[19:49] ---
    into your plaything!
[19:51] ---
    And I'll never share my
    doughnuts with you again!
[19:57] ---
    Please don't think of me as the person
    I've been portraying up to now.
[20:04] ---
    I'll show you my fight field.
[20:07] ---
    Come, my fairies...
[20:10] ---
    Fairy Masquerade Prison!
[20:19] ---
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[20:22] ---
    Witch of Banquets, Lir!
[20:25] ---
    Star-vader, Archfox!
[20:28] ---
    Link Joker?!
[20:43] ---
    Are you okay?!
[20:46] ---
    There must be some way out of here...
[20:50] ---
    What did I tell you?
[20:52] ---
    It's a waste of time.
[20:54] ---
    Serra has become even stronger.
[20:58] ---
    It's impossible to get through those
    ice walls from the inside alone.
[21:04] ---
    From the inside alone...
[21:06] ---
    Then that means...
[21:09] ---
    But you don't have even a single person
[21:12] ---
    on the other side to help
    you break through the wall.
[21:16] ---
    And Neve lost, too...
[21:19] ---
    What?!
[21:21] ---
    Escape is out of the question,
[21:24] ---
    so it would be easier on you
    if you just stayed put.
[21:29] ---
    Hot! I'm burning!
[21:32] ---
    Hot! Hot!
[21:34] ---
    It's hot! Please stop!
[21:37] ---
    Please, mercy!
[21:46] ---
    It's all over...
[21:55] ---
    You're making a lot of work for us.
[21:57] ---
    Entirely too much.
[21:59] ---
    Ren!
[22:00] ---
    Leon!
[22:01] ---
    We opened an entrance for you.
[22:04] ---
    No... shouldn't it be called "exit"?
[22:07] ---
    It's an entrance to the previous path.
[22:10] ---
    That's right.
[22:11] ---
    You guys will have to be the ones
    to open a path from this point on.
[23:55] ---
    I'll tell you one thing.
    You shouldn't think of us as allies.
[23:59] ---
    Aichi Sendou is a good friend.
[24:01] ---
    Whatever.
[24:02] ---
    For now, I owe you.
[24:03] ---
    Good grief...
[24:05] ---
    Cringeworthy expressions just slip
    right out for you, don't they?
[24:07] ---
    I don't know what you mean by that.
[24:09] ---
    Anyway, I'm grateful to you for rescuing us.
[24:12] ---
    Next time: Cold Ambition.
SIGN    Cold Ambition
[24:14] ---
    Serra, you've made me...
    you've made us all mad!
[24:18] ---
    You must hurry. The wind
    is turning into a storm.
