[00:19] Ibuki
    Not again...
[01:02] Student A
    Man, that was a crummy thing to do...
[01:05] Student B
    Got only yourself to blame.
[01:06] Student A
    Nah, c'mon.
SIGN    Episode 1 
     The Vanguard's a Magical Girl?!
[01:51] Suiko
    Get in, please.
[01:53] Ibuki
    You're from ULTRARARE...
[01:55] Suiko
    Shh!
[01:58] Suiko
    I'm with the Tatsunagi Foundation.
[02:00] Suiko
    I'll fill you in on the details later.
[02:02] Ibuki
    And if I refuse?
[02:05] Suiko
    You would only regret it.
[02:09] Ibuki
    You could've just told me
    I don't have a choice.
[02:37] Nome
    I appreciate your coming over, Ibuki.
[02:40] Ibuki
    What do you want with me?
[02:44] Nome
    As the head of the Tatsunagi Foundation,
    I called you here.
[02:51] Ibuki
    The big cheese himself, huh?
[02:54] Suiko
    Choose your words more carefully!
[02:56] Suiko
    This situation is your fault.
[02:59] Ibuki
    My fault?
[03:00] Suiko
    You did something terrible.
[03:06] Teacher
    This part is especially important,
    so listen carefully.
[03:09] Emi
    Jeez, I keep having weird dreams,
    so I haven't been getting enough sleep.
[03:17] Emi
    Shuka?
[03:18] Emi
    Could it be...?
[03:20] Emi
    The entrance to the secret castle was...
[03:23] Emi
    Discovered?!
[03:24] Teacher
    That's right, Sendou!
[03:25] Teacher
    You're always on the ball.
[03:26] Teacher
    This earthenware was just discovered...
[03:29] Emi
    "Yaeyama earthenware, discovered on the
    Yaeyama Islands and used by the Ryukyuan people,
[03:35] Emi
    "marks the beginning of the
    earthenware culture's introduction overseas.
[03:38] Emi
    "An interim of about 800 years follows,
     after which the ceramic culture began."
[03:45] Emi
    Right?
[03:46] Teacher
    Yes, exactly!
[03:50] Emi
    Excuse me!
[03:52] Emi
    I must be going now!
[03:55] Emi
    Shuka!
[03:57] Emi
    Sorry!
[03:58] Shuka
    Took you long enough, Emi!
[04:00] Emi
    Well, I was in class!
[04:03] Shuka
    The entrance won't wait!
[04:05] Emi
    I know! Let's hurry, Shuka!
[04:15] Nome
    Now then, allow me to explain.
[04:18] Nome
    Up to now, you've made two grave mistakes.
[04:22] Nome
    One is a past mistake.
[04:24] Nome
    The other is a future mistake.
[04:28] Ibuki
    You lost me there.
[04:30] Ibuki
    A past mistake is one thing,
    but is a future mistake even possible?
[04:35] Nome
    It is.
[04:36] Nome
    I have an observer within me.
[04:38] Ibuki
    Huh, just within you?
[04:41] Suiko
    Apparently you had another
    nightmare this morning.
[04:45] Suiko
    And you don't accept this state of affairs.
[04:49] Suiko
    Something's not right,
[04:51] Suiko
    but you can't identify just what it is.
[04:54] Ibuki
    Well, you've done your homework.
[04:57] Ibuki
    Do you intend to take
    advantage of my weakness
[04:59] Ibuki
    by giving me a hard sell
    on some dodgy exorcism talisman?
[05:03] Suiko
    Not even close.
[05:05] Suiko
    Let's get back on track.
[05:08] Suiko
    What you must do is correct your own error,
[05:13] Suiko
    and return the world to how it's meant to be.
[05:16] Ibuki
    How it's meant to be?
[05:22] Nome
    Surely you have some idea.
[05:25] Nome
    A world without that.
[05:32] Nome
    You can see it too, yes?
[05:34] Nome
    That building...
[05:35] Ibuki
    Yeah, that's right.
[05:38] Ibuki
    Ever since I first laid eyes on that,
[05:40] Ibuki
    I've been having nightmares,
    and not a single decent night's sleep.
[05:44] Ibuki
    Just what is that castle?!
[05:46] Suiko
    It belongs to someone you know well.
[05:49] Ibuki
    Someone I know?
[05:51] Ibuki
    Who is it?
[05:54] Suiko
    It's...
[06:07] Emi
    Is it really up ahead?
[06:09] Shuka
    Yeah, just a little further.
[06:24] Morikawa
    You walked right into my trap!
[06:31] Shuka
    One of the Four Generals!
[06:33] Emi
    He's one of the Four Generals?
[06:35] Emi
    Doesn't look that tough to me.
[06:38] Morikawa
    Get 'em!
[06:42] Shuka
    Emi, let's transform!
[06:45] Emi
    Right!
[06:59] The Two
    Blaster Pair!
[07:09] Emi
    We beat them?
[07:12] Shuka
    I don't think so.
[07:14] The Two
    Figures, huh?
[07:18] Emi
    All right, let's go arm-in-arm!
[07:19] Shuka
    Yeah!
[07:33] Shuka
    Oh, dear.
[07:34] Emi
    Let's go!
[07:35] Shuka
    Right!
[07:41] Voice 1
    Beaten so easily...
[07:44] Morikawa
    You guys!
[07:45] Voice 1
    "You guys"? Who do you think you're talking to?
[07:50] Voice 2
    Beaten by two little girls...
    You have brought shame to the empire.
[07:56] Voice 3
    You're the weakest of the Four Generals.
[07:59] Voice 3
    We're done with you.
[08:01] Voice 1
    We hereby banish you to the Outside World!
[08:06] Morikawa
    I'm sidelined from this series already?!
[08:28] Aichi
    You've done well to make it this far.
[08:30] Aichi
    I'm impressed.
[08:31] Shuka
    Don't patronize us!
[08:33] Shuka
    Once we get serious,
    even you are no match for us.
[08:38] Aichi
    Is that right? Then show me
    how serious you can be.
[08:44] Emi
    If you would, Shuka!
[08:46] Shuka
    Gotcha!
[08:47] Shuka
    Elemental Calling!
[08:52] Emi
    Protect us, Blaster Blade!
[08:55] Emi
    Realize!
[09:08] Aichi
    Come to me, my loyal servants.
[09:17] Emi
    I understand, Blaster Blade.
[09:19] Emi
    Let's go, Shuka!
[09:20] Shuka
    R-Right!
[09:46] Emi
    Shuka, how about the next card?!
[09:48] Shuka
    Um, we do have another, but...
[09:51] Shuka
    Okay, here!
[09:52] Emi
    Realize!
[10:00] Shuka
    I was afraid of that...
[10:12] Emi
    Blaster Blade!
[10:20] Aichi
    Fire.
[10:36] Aichi
    Find them. I'll leave the rest to you.
[10:49] Shuka
    Ouch!
[10:52] Shuka
    Emi!
[10:55] Emi
    I'm okay! No problem!
[11:04] Shuka
    We failed.
[11:06] Emi
    There's always tomorrow.
[11:07] Shuka
    Yeah...
[11:09] Emi
    We won't let something like this get us down!
[11:18] Ibuki
    Someone I know?
[11:20] Ibuki
    Who is it?
[11:22] Suiko
    It's...
[11:25] Suiko
    ...Aichi Sendou.
[11:27] Ibuki
    Aichi Sendou?!
[11:35] Suiko
    Nome possesses the Akashic Book.
[11:39] Suiko
    This book contains the history
    of everything up to now.
[11:43] Suiko
    It says the place where he's idolized
    is known as Sanctuary.
[11:48] Ibuki
    Sanctuary?
[11:56] Nome
    Yes. Sanctuary.
[12:10] Ibuki
    What does that mean?
[12:12] Ibuki
    I know nothing of this!
[12:14] Nome
    Of course not.
[12:16] Ibuki
    Enough games. I'm leaving.
[12:17] Suiko
    Then you'll have nightmares
    for the rest of your life...
[12:21] Ibuki
    What do you want me to do?
[12:23] Suiko
    It's simple.
[12:24] Suiko
    Go to a certain school and slip a deck
    into someone's shoe cupboard.
[12:28] Suiko
    That's all.
[12:30] Ibuki
    Why is that necessary?
[12:33] Suiko
    It's not necessary. It's inevitable.
[12:36] Nome
    I'm fine not doing anything, but...
[12:41] Suiko
    Put the deck in the shoe cupboard.
[12:44] Suiko
    Then history will change,
     and a new gear will begin to turn.
[12:49] Nome
    Yes, perhaps even a literal "gear."
[12:52] Ibuki
    History? A gear?
[12:54] Suiko
    You will give the deck to a second-year
    student at Harumi Middle School,
[12:58] Suiko
    Chrono Shindou.
[13:00] Ibuki
    Who's that?
[13:02] Ibuki
    What's going on?!
[13:04] Nome
    It seems the time has come.
[13:06] Nome
    It's calling for you from over there.
[13:10] Nome
    Have a nice trip. Don't forget your mission.
[13:15] Nome
    Things could get chaotic if you do.
[13:19] Ibuki
    Wait! I still don't get what this is about!
[13:22] Ibuki
    Where's the deck?!
[13:25] Nome
    It's not here.
[13:27] Nome
    What you need is in the future.
[13:30] Ibuki
    In the future?!
[13:43] Suiko
    Will he be able to do it?
[13:45] Nome
    It'll be okay. Probably.
[13:53] Shuka
    Where are we?
[13:56] Emi
    This is the world of the future!
[13:59] Shuka
    Even the future is warped?
[14:02] Shuka
    What a crisis it's become...
[14:09] Boy 1
    There's trash in his shoe cupboard again!
[14:11] Boy 2
    Who did that?! If he finds out, they're toast!
[14:17] Emi
    But what are we supposed to do?
[14:19] Shuka
    Don't we know anyone here?
[14:21] Emi
    Well, we're in the future now.
[14:24] Emi
    And I have no clue what's going on now.
[14:27] Shuka
    I see.
[14:35] Jammer Ibuki
    I don't need this junk!
[14:40] Jammer Ibuki
    Jammer, jammer.
[14:44] Jammer Ibuki
    Jammer, jammer, jammer...
[14:45] Emi
    Something about that man...
[14:46] Shuka
    Yeah, he's suspicious.
[14:53] Shuka
    Ugh! What kind of jerk
    would throw cards in the trash?!
[14:57] Emi
    Maybe he did it by accident?
[14:59] Emi
    I'll go return them!
[15:02] Shuka
    Emi!
[15:04] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam-jam-jam-jam...
[15:13] Ibuki
    Where am I?
[15:15] Ibuki
    Is this really the future?
[15:17] Ibuki
    Nuts! I really am in the future?!
[15:20] Emi
    There he is!
[15:21] Shuka
    Be careful, Emi!
[15:23] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam, jam-jam...
[15:31] Jammer Ibuki
    Jammer!
[15:32] Jammer Ibuki
    Jammer jam-jam-jam!
[15:38] Ibuki
    If this is the future,
    then is what that girl said true?
[15:42] Ibuki
    The only way I can get home is by putting
    a deck into a middle schooler's shoe cupboard?
[15:47] Ibuki
    What a pain...
[15:49] Emi
    Please wait!
[15:56] Shuka
    Are you okay, Emi?!
[15:58] Ibuki
    What?! Need something from me?!
[16:01] Emi
    Um...
[16:02] Shuka
    You threw this in the trash can back there!
[16:08] Ibuki
    That?
[16:09] Ibuki
    Wait! I still don't get what this is about!
[16:12] Ibuki
    Where's the deck?!
[16:16] Nome
    It's not here.
[16:18] Nome
    What you need is in the future.
[16:20] Ibuki
    In the future?!
[16:24] Ibuki
    I see, so that's the deck.
[16:27] Ibuki
    Hey! Give it to me!
[16:30] Shuka
    After you threw it away?!
[16:32] Ibuki
    I don't know what you mean,
    but if I tossed it, then give it back!
[16:35] Shuka
    Since you threw it away,
    I'm under no obligation to return it.
[16:38] Shuka
    And I don't want to return cards
    to someone who abandoned them.
[16:43] Emi
    Shuka, that's going a bit too far...
[16:44] Shuka
    Only what he deserves!
[16:46] Shuka
    Let's go, Emi!
[16:47] Ibuki
    Weren't you going to give it back?!
[16:49] Ibuki
    Give it! There'll be trouble if you don't!
[16:53] Shuka
    Officer, this guy's a pervert!
[16:56] Emi
    Shuka, that's what's called a false accusation!
[16:59] Ibuki
    I've had it up to here with you!
[17:01] Emi
    W-Wait a minute!
[17:05] Emi
    I want to ask him something.
[17:09] Shuka
    Okay.
[17:12] Ibuki
    Okay, now give me that deck.
[17:14] Emi
    Why did you throw away the cards to begin with?
[17:17] Ibuki
    I didn't throw away any cards!
[17:23] Shuka
    Claiming he didn't throw them away!
[17:25] Shuka
    A liar like him won't do us any good.
[17:27] Emi
    Lying is wrong, but so is sudden violence!
[17:30] Emi
    Not to mention hitting him
    with my precious binder!
[17:33] Shuka
    Oh, that's right.
[17:37] Ibuki
    Your binder's more precious than my head?!
[17:40] Shuka
    Huh? He isn't transforming into a Jammer.
[17:43] Emi
    See, Shuka? I don't think he's one of them.
[17:47] Ibuki
    What do mean, "Jammer"?!
[17:48] Ibuki
    Even if you're just kids,
    I'm done holding back!
[17:56] Shuka
    What should we do?!
[17:57] Shuka
    Are you sure he's not a Jammer?
[18:01] Ibuki
    You're both suckers!
[18:03] Ibuki
    I've got the deck now!
[18:04] Emi
    So you are...
[18:06] Shuka
    ...a Jammer, after all!
[18:07] Ibuki
    Call me whatever you like!
[18:09] Ibuki
    I'm gonna pop this deck into that
    shoe cupboard, and go back to my own world!
[18:13] The Two
    Hold it right there!
[18:15] Ibuki
    I'll leave this crummy world in the dust!
[18:18] The Two
    Get back here!
[18:21] Girl 2
    There's trash in Chrono's shoe cupboard again!
[18:24] Guy 3
    He must've picked a fight again,
    and so this is the payback.
[18:32] Ibuki
    Looks like I managed to lose them.
[18:34] Ibuki
    At any rate, this deck...
[18:37] Ibuki
    "Gear Chronicle"?
[18:38] Ibuki
    Never seen this before.
[18:40] Ibuki
    That reminds me.
    They said I threw it away.
[18:44] Jammers
    Jam-jam-jammer...
[18:45] Ibuki
    Who're you guys?
[18:47] Jammers
    Jam-jam-jammer...
[18:48] Ibuki
    I see. It seems the evil thugs have shown up.
[18:53] Jammers
    Jam-jam-jammer...
[18:56] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam-jammer...
[18:59] Ibuki
    Me? Is this how I look in the future?
[19:04] Jammer Ibuki
    Are you me?
[19:06] Ibuki
    Yeah, that's right.
[19:07] Ibuki
    I came to deliver this.
[19:10] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam-jammer.
[19:11] Jammer Ibuki
    After I threw the deck away,
    why did you have to retrieve it?
[19:15] Jammer Ibuki
    Looks like the real one has
    arrived from the Outside World.
[19:20] Ibuki
    Real one? I see.
[19:23] Ibuki
    In that case, you're just a cheap copy, huh?
[19:26] Ibuki
    That mark on your forehead is too obvious.
[19:30] Ibuki
    And what's with your face? You even look evil.
[19:34] Shuka
    I dunno about that.
[19:36] Emi
    He doesn't look that different from the real one.
[19:39] Ibuki
    When did you two get here?!
[19:41] Ibuki
    Darn it! The honesty of brats ticks me off.
[19:44] Emi
    Sorry for suspecting you earlier!
[19:47] Shuka
    Yeah, but he's got that menacing look!
[19:49] Emi
    Shuka, you're honest to a fault!
[19:51] Ibuki
    If you two are gonna diss me when I'm
    right here, at least keep it to a whisper!
[19:56] Ibuki
    And what was that "Jammer" thing
    you kept going on about?!
[20:01] Emi
    Let me explain!
[20:02] Emi
    They're bad guys who interfere
    whenever we try to fix history!
[20:06] Shuka
    That's right! Bad guys!
[20:09] Ibuki
    Fix history?! Just who are you two?!
[20:13] Shuka
    Go on, tell him!
[20:14] Emi
    Well, uh...
[20:16] Emi
    I'm a newbie magical girl...
[20:19] Shuka
    ...and I'm Emi's fairy servant!
[20:22] Ibuki
    Oh... now I'm sorry I asked.
[20:25] Shuka
    Huh? He doesn't believe us.
[20:28] Emi
    Can you blame him?
[20:29] Shuka
    Emi, show him the you-know-what!
[20:31] Emi
    Right!
[20:32] Emi
    All right! Come, Blaster Rod!
[20:39] Jammer Ibuki
    You must be the...
[20:41] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam-jammer!
[20:43] Jammer Ibuki
    Magical girl, do you intend to
    bring this world to ruin, as well?!
[20:48] Jammer Ibuki
    Jammer, jammer, jammer, jammer!
[20:53] Jammer Ibuki
    Jam-jam-jammer!
[20:55] Ibuki
    I see. So this kind of thing is possible here?
[20:59] Ibuki
    Aha, so even if you transform,
    that part stays the same?
[21:03] Emi
    Please be careful! They're very strong!
[21:07] Ibuki
    Interesting.
[21:08] Ibuki
    So we'll get somewhere
    by taking them out, right?
[21:11] Ibuki
    Getting to fight units directly
    is the greatest of honors!
[21:15] Shuka
    You seem really into this,
    but are you sure you'll be okay?
[21:17] Ibuki
    I just wanna get this
    over with so I can go home!
[21:21] Emi
    You have a menacing glare,
    but you're actually a good person!
[21:23] Shuka
    There, Emi! You've noticed
    the menacing look in his eyes too!
[21:26] Emi
    Uh oh!
[21:27] Ibuki
    Look, you two...!
[21:29] Shuka
    So he's the kind of person who acts
    like a jerk while hiding his true self?
[21:35] Emi
    Wow, I had no idea!
[21:37] Ibuki
    Every comment out of their mouths is
    like a dart hitting the bullseye each time...
[21:41] Ibuki
    But I'll just ignore their drivel for now.
[21:43] Ibuki
    All right! It's a Vanguard showdown!
[21:55] Ibuki
    Why, you...
[21:56] Ibuki
    But we're supposed to decide
    who wins with a Cardfight!
[22:01] Emi
    Please think about this rationally!
[22:04] Emi
    Cardfighting against bad guys?!
[22:06] Shuka
    Don't be ridiculous!
[22:11] Ibuki
    Say what?!
[23:45] Narrator
    The 30-second card intro segment!
[23:48] Narrator
    Today's featured card is Royal Paladin's
    Aerial Divine Knight, Altmile!
[23:53] Narrator
    By paying the cost,
[23:54] Narrator
    you can call up to one grade 2 unit each
    from your deck and your Drop Zone!
[23:59] Narrator
    Also, with its skill, if you have
    no face-up cards in your Damage Zone,
[24:02] Narrator
    the power and shield of all of
    your grade 2 units get a major increase!
[24:05] Narrator
    Overcome adversity with your comrades
    under the guidance of a proud, heroic knight!
[24:10] Narrator
    With this card, you too can
    "Ride The Vanguard"!
SIGN    Ride The Vanguard!
[24:16] Ibuki
    My name is Kouji Ibuki.
[24:18] Ibuki
    After being sucked into a weird book,
    I ended up in the future in an alternate world.
[24:21] Ibuki
    There's a pale imitation of myself,
[24:22] Ibuki
    and two kids who claim to be
    a magical girl and a fairy, respectively,
[24:25] Ibuki
    but the real trouble is full-sized,
    living and breathing Vanguard units.
[24:28] Ibuki
    Furthermore, what kind of world

    Who signed off on this world's setting?!
[24:33] Voice
    Jammer, jammer, jammer...
[24:36] Ibuki
    Wait, you're...
[24:37] Voice

SIGN    Episode 2 
     Battles in -if- use Magic?!
[24:40] Ibuki
    No, don't say it!
    The show itself will be warped!
