    I've arrived home, but now what should I do?
[01:30] Emi
    Shuka, wait! Where are you heading?!
[01:34] Shuka
    I smell one! I smell a Jammer!
[01:37] Shuka
    Emi, over there!
[01:38] Tatsuya
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[01:40] Tatsuya
    Let go of me!
[01:43] Shuka
    The Jammers suddenly showed up!
[01:45] Shuka
    Let's do this, Emi!
[01:47] Shuka
    Transform--
[01:49] Emi
    Let us transform!

     Great Quarrel?! Predicament!! Mascot Chara!!
[03:38] Ryuzu
    It seems we've each found helpers.
[03:41] Kanzaki
    I'm going to win!
[03:43] Oyama
    Then shall we have a showdown?
[03:45] Ryuzu
    Go ahead.
[03:46] Shuka
    Excuse me! What is this?!
[03:48] Emi
    Help!
[03:51] Tatsuya
    It's cramped in here! And dark! And scary!
[03:56] Tatsuya
    Ryuzu!
[03:57] Ryuzu
    Sorry, Tatsuya.
[03:59] Ryuzu
    I was so anxious to get you here that
    I had a few gentlemen bring you to me.
[04:05] Oyama
    I figured Tatsuya would be your helper!
[04:09] Oyama
    As for mine...
[04:10] Oyama
    ...it's him!
[04:12] Emi/Shuka
    Mask, the Dark!
[04:14] Dark
    Sorry. It appears we're to be enemies today.
[04:18] Ryuzu
    Who is he?
[04:21] Shuka/Emi
    You don't know, mister?
[04:23] Oyama
    I don't actually know him myself...
[04:26] Oyama
    But he's really cool, yeah?
[04:28] Oyama
    I think he's a perfect fit for this project.
[04:31] Kanzaki
    You're weak!
[04:33] Kanzaki
    Weak, weak, weak!
[04:36] Kanzaki
    I found S Rank fighters!
[04:39] Nanami
    Ow...
[04:42] Tatsuya
    Nanami and Tonori!
[04:44] Tonori
    Yo, what is this?
[04:46] Nanami
    You at least owe us an
    explanation for abducting us!
[04:49] Ryuzu/Kanzaki/Oyama
    It's all for the sake of Vanguard!
SIGN    Weakness is a sin Fight with a smile
[04:54] Shuka
    The Vanguard Association...
[04:57] Emi
    ...preparation room?
[04:59] Ryuzu
    Precisely!
[05:00] Ryuzu
    We've formed this marvelous organization
[05:03] Ryuzu
    to spread the word about
    Vanguard throughout the world!
[05:05] Ryuzu
    And this is a design competition
    to decide on our mascot!
[05:08] Tatsuya
    So that's what this is about.
[05:10] Emi
    A mascot? For your organization?
[05:14] Ryuzu
    Correct.
[05:15] Shuka
    All right. We'll also participate.
[05:18] Emi
    Shuka?
[05:19] Shuka
    After all, we can't have them
    making up a weird Vanguard mascot.
[05:23] Shuka
    You're in too, right?
[05:26] Tatsuya
    My question is, who are you two?
[05:31] Emi
    We should've introduced ourselves earlier.
[05:32] Emi
    I'm Emi, a novice magical girl.
[05:35] Shuka
    I'm Shuka, her fairy assistant.
[05:39] Tatsuya
    A magical girl and a fairy?!
[05:43] Tatsuya
    Fascinating...
[05:45] Tatsuya
    Let's work together!
[05:46] Shuka/Emi
    Great!
[05:47] Nanami
    Just so you know...
[05:49] Nanami
    ...I'll have nothing to do with this.
SIGN    Half-price Hamburgers
[05:51] Kanzaki
    What are you talking about?!
[05:52] Kanzaki
    Don't you want your reward?!
[05:55] Tonori
    That coupon is good for all the fries
    you can eat for half a year!
[05:59] Nanami
    Hey!
[06:01] Oyama
    A falling-out already?
[06:03] Dark
    You'll never beat us like that.
[06:06] Oyama
    You got that right!
[06:07] Oyama
    Can anyone beat this mask?
[06:10] Dark
    You understand me! I'm touched!
[06:13] Dark
    You have exquisite fashion sense, sir!
[06:20] Emi
    Um, I don't mind thinking up a mascot,
    but how is the winner going to be decided?
[06:26] Ryuzu
    Don't worry. We already have judges lined up.
[06:30] Ryuzu
    That's your cue!
[06:35] Emi
    Suiko and...
[06:36] Shuka
    ...the old--
[06:37] Dark
    Bukki!
[06:38] Ryuzu
    These two will judg--
[06:40] Suiko
    We heard the spiel already.
[06:42] Suiko
    As a member of ULTRARARE,
    I will judge this competition,
[06:47] Suiko
    which is to influence the future
    of Vanguard, fair and square.
[06:50] Ibuki
    Why do I have to be part of this?
[06:53] Oyama
    So, who are you?
[06:55] Kanzaki
    Why are you entrusting
    the judging to these people?!
[06:57] Ryuzu
    That's because...
[06:59] Ryuzu
    ...their love for Vanguard is genuine!
[07:02] Ryuzu
    Also, I thought we needed the opinion
    of the 20-to-34 female demographic.
[07:06] Suiko
    Who are you calling
    the 20-to-34 female demographic?!
SIGN    Age 20-34
[07:12] Oyama
    Well, they'll do.
[07:14] Oyama
    The showdown is three days
    from now! Just you wait!
[07:17] Ryuzu
    I have no intention of losing, either!
[07:19] Kanzaki
    Begone, weaklings!
[07:22] Emi
    Shuka, haven't we gotten ourselves
    involved in a major pain of a project?
[07:29] Shuka
    I can smell it.
[07:30] Shuka
    The distortion is in this room!
[07:39] Shuka
    So, who are you?
[07:41] Ryuzu
    Ryuzu Myoujin.
[07:43] Ryuzu
    I'm the representative of the
    Vanguard Association preparation room.
[07:47] Ryuzu
    I had you two brought along with him
     in order to speed up the process.
[07:51] Ryuzu
    My apologies.
[07:53] Emi
    Not at all. We're as interested as you,
    so we're happy to participate.
[07:57] Shuka
    Someone among us is a Jamm--
[08:01] Ryuzu
    Tatsuya has helped me do research into Vanguard
    in the past, which is how we know each other.
[08:11] Tatsuya
    I've finished.
[08:13] Tatsuya
    How about something like this?
[08:14] Ryuzu
    Rejected.
[08:15] Tatsuya
    That fast?!
[08:16] Tatsuya
    All you did was combine elements
    from units that already exist.
[08:19] Tatsuya
    There's no originality.
[08:22] Shuka
    I would say...
[08:23] Shuka
    ...it's kind of lame.
[08:25] Emi
    Firstly, it lacks the sense of friendliness
    that a mascot should have.
[08:30] Emi
    It's also unmemorable and leaves no impact.
[08:33] Emi
    I guess my main issues with
    this design are the lack of creativity
[08:38] Emi
    and the poor marketing sense,
    as I can't identify the target audience.
[08:42] Emi
    Simply put, it doesn't really
    hold up as a character.
[08:45] Tatsuya
    I didn't expect a critical drubbing...
[08:50] Tatsuya
    Papa! Mama!
[08:52] Tatsuya
    I'll use my power to bring you back!
[08:55] Ryuzu
    Now, now. Just calm down.
[09:05] Kanzaki
    Might makes right!
[09:07] Kanzaki
    "A tenacity for victory that even
    drips out of your pores" makes right!
[09:11] Kanzaki
    Weakness is a sin!
[09:14] Nanami
    Meow-meow, kitty-cat.
[09:16] Kanzaki
    Where did that stray cat come from?!
[09:18] Tonori
    The window was open, so...
[09:20] Kanzaki
    This is weakness!
[09:22] Kanzaki
    Now is the time to think
    about Vanguard's future!
[09:25] Kanzaki
    Ignore that mangy thing!
[09:27] Nanami
    Ka-ping! What was that, old man?!
[09:32] Kanzaki
    Are you talking back to me?!
[09:34] Nanami
    What are you calling a mangy thing?!
[09:36] Nanami
    When it comes to mascot motifs,
[09:38] Nanami
    cute kitty-cats are the most powerful
    in the world, possibly even the universe!
[09:43] Kanzaki
    That's the spirit!
[09:44] Kanzaki
    If you feel that strongly about it,
    then draw your Vanguard...
[09:50] Kanzaki
    ...mascot!
[09:51] Nanami
    Just you wait!
[09:56] Tatsuya
    Here!
[09:57] Ryuzu
    Boring! Next.
[09:59] Tatsuya
    Here.
[10:00] Emi
    Not cute. Next.
[10:01] Tatsuya
    Here!
[10:02] Ryuzu
    It lacks refinement. Next.
[10:04] Tatsuya
    Here!
[10:05] Emi
    No feels. Next.
[10:08] Tatsuya
    Why is this happening to me?!
[10:11] Ryuzu
    Next!
[10:14] Nanami
    There! A hometown kitty-cat character!
[10:18] Kanzaki
    Deja vu!
[10:19] Kanzaki
    Could be trouble!
[10:21] Nanami
    Stressed out by the rat race,
    it takes things easy instead!
[10:23] Nanami
    Bald Kitty!
[10:25] Kanzaki
    The cuteness is missing!
[10:28] Nanami
    No explanation needed!
[10:29] Nanami
    A robotic cat from the future!
SIGN    Self-Censored
[10:32] Kanzaki
    No, no, no!
[10:34] Kanzaki
    Are you trying to get us sued?!
[10:36] Kanzaki
    Hey! Say something to her!
[10:44] Tonori
    Your jibber-jabber is getting on my nerves!
[10:50] Tonori
    But firstly...
[10:52] Kanzaki
    Firstly?
[10:54] Tonori
    Go get me something to eat!
[10:57] Tonori
    Triple Big Burger Red!
[11:00] Tonori
    Boneless Chicken Yellow!
[11:02] Tonori
    Giga-bigga Beef Bowl
    with Pickled Ginger Blue!
[11:06] Nanami
    Should that be red or blue?
[11:08] Kanzaki
    Wh-What is this?!
    You're a mass of pure appetite!
[11:12] Kanzaki
    Hunger personified!
[11:14] Kanzaki
    Good, good! Now this is the
    S Rank fighter I had hoped for!
[11:19] Kanzaki
    More! More!
[11:37] Oyama
    Damage check...
[11:42] Oyama
    No trigger.
[11:44] Dark
    I... I win...
[11:47] Oyama
    You're strong!
[11:48] Dark
    As are you... Ryutarou Oyama.
[11:54] Oyama
    Itchy, itchy!
[11:55] Oyama
    When I play Cardfight Vanguard these days,
     for some reason my skin starts to crawl!
[12:03] Oyama
    Anyway, between your outfit
     and your fighting, you're awesome!
[12:11] Dark
    Back at ya.
[12:13] Dark
    You are awesome.
[12:17] Dark
    Is something wrong?
[12:18] Oyama
    That!
[12:21] Oyama
    Oh no!
[12:23] Oyama
    I was so wrapped up with fighting
     that I forgot about the mascot design!
[12:27] Dark
    We're really gonna do that?
[12:29] Oyama
    Of course!
[12:31] Oyama
    Oh man, that was a close one...
[12:36] Ibuki
    No matter how hard I try, I never get to fight!
[12:40] Suiko
    Shush it! Figure out the format already!
[12:43] Ibuki
    I know! We have to correct
    this world's distortion, right?
[12:47] Ibuki
    It's gotta be either Ryuzu, Kanzaki, or Oyama!
[12:50] Suiko
    Don't be flip!
[12:51] Suiko
    It's true that one of them is a Jammer,
    but if we choose wrongly and they get away,
[12:57] Suiko
    a correctable distortion will be beyond repair!
[13:00] Ibuki
    Fine. We'll get to the bottom of this
    through careful deliberation.
[13:03] Suiko
    Well, for now, let's go home.
    It's your turn to make dinner.
[13:09] Ibuki
    Again?!
[13:14] Emi
    You're drawing one too, Shuka?
[13:16] Shuka
    An idea just popped into my head.
[13:19] Emi
    Huh...
[13:22] Ryuzu
    This is the one!
[13:24] Kanzaki
    This is it!
[13:25] Oyama
    Let's go with this!
[13:44] Ryuzu
    Your attention, please!
[13:47] Ryuzu
    The Vanguard mascot character
    competition is about to begin!
[13:52] Ryuzu
    Over here are our judges!
[13:55] Ryuzu
    ULTRARARE's Suiko Tatsunagi!
[13:59] Suiko
    Watch carefully as the future of Vanguard
     begins with the advent of a new mascot.
[14:10] Oyama
    We'll start!
[14:13] Ibuki
    They didn't just design it,
    but made a character suit, too?!
[14:23] Oyama
    I am a child of the wild:
     Mask, the Vanguard! R! X!
[14:31] Nanami
    What is that?
[14:32] Emi
    He's just imitating Mask, the Dark!
[14:37] Ibuki
    Threw it together at the last minute, huh?
[14:39] Suiko
    An all-around lackluster job. Next!
[14:42] Oyama
    But I thought it was cool!
[14:49] Kanzaki
    Observe!
[14:52] Kanzaki
    This is perfect harmony between
    strength and a beloved motif!
[14:59] Kanzaki
    The King of Animals!
[15:01] Kanzaki
    Meowtron!
[15:04] Nanami
    What the heck?!
    Even with kitties, it's not cute at all!
[15:08] Tonori
    I think the name's cute, though.
[15:12] Suiko
    While it contains a token number of
    Vanguard elements, it's an eyesore. Next!
[15:18] Kanzaki
    But I thought it was cute!
[15:24] Ryuzu
    Interdimensional Vangabang!
[15:29] All
    "Vangabang"?
[15:31] Ryuzu
    I'll explain the transformation process.
[15:34] Ryuzu
    It takes Vangabang a mere
    0.05 seconds to don his fighting suit.
[15:41] Ryuzu
    Vanga-fact!
[15:43] Tatsuya
    But what I drew was this!
[15:46] Tatsuya
    How did it turn into that?!
[15:50] Ibuki
    That happens a lot when something goes
    from two-dimensional to three-dimensional.
[15:53] Suiko
    It seems the modeler's abilities
    weren't up to snuff. Too bad.
[15:57] Tatsuya
    That's just awful!
[16:02] Ryuzu
    How is it awful?!
[16:04] Oyama
    Mine is the best!
[16:05] Kanzaki
    What are you talking about?! What is that
    top-heavy weakling supposed to be?!
[16:09] Ryuzu
    You should talk! How does that
    have anything to do with mascots?!
[16:12] Oyama
    You have no room to talk, either!
[16:14] Ryuzu
    What was that?!
[16:15] Oyama
    What was what?!
[16:16] Ibuki
    I definitely wouldn't wanna work
    for any of those guys.
[16:20] Suiko
    Which one is the Jammer?
[16:22] Ibuki
    This whole setup reeks of a Jammer distortion.
[16:31] Shuka
    That's the Jammer mark!
[16:33] Emi
    Then...
[16:34] Shuka/Emi/Suiko/Ibuki
    ...all three of them are Jammers?!
[16:36] Suiko
    So they're a Vanguard Association in name only.
[16:39] Suiko
    They chose weird mascot characters
    to keep Vanguard from becoming popular.
[16:44] Ibuki
    Like I said, the whole thing
    stunk from the get-go.
[16:50] Oyama Jammer
    There's no sense faking it now that you know.
[16:53] Kanzaki Jammer
    Only the strong can grasp victory!
[16:56] Ryuzu Jammer
    No, I'll handle them!
[16:58] Oyama Jammer
    No, I'll fight!
[17:00] Kanzaki Jammer
    Wait! I'll go first!
[17:02] Oyama Jammer
    You can get lost!
[17:04] Shuka
    Emi, let's transform!
[17:06] Emi
    Right!
[17:16] Emi/Shuka
    IF, stand up!
[17:22] The Three
    Jam-jam-jam-jam-jam!
[17:25] Oyama Jammer
    Jammer!
[17:26] Kanzaki Jammer
    Jammer!
[17:28] Ryuzu Jammer
    Jammer!
[17:32] Tatsuya
    Chronotiger Rebellion?!
[17:37] Suiko
    That's...
[17:38] Suiko
    ...Claret Sword Dragon!
[17:40] Ibuki
    Dragonic Vanquisher!
[17:42] Emi
    Realize!
[17:43] Emi
    We need you, Blaster Blade!
[17:59] Shuka
    No!
[18:00] Emi
    Three against one is too much for him!
[18:05] Dark
    Looks like you're in trouble.
[18:08] Emi
    Mask, the Dark!
[18:10] Dark
    I feel somewhat responsible
    for helping one of those Jammers.
[18:15] Dark
    And so, catch this week's final card!
[18:23] Shuka
    Blaster Dark!
[18:26] Emi
    Realize!
[18:35] Ibuki
    Blaster Blade and Blaster Dark
    are gonna fight together?!
[18:39] Suiko
    But it's still three against two!
[18:48] Emi
    Blaster Blade!
[18:50] Shuka
    Blaster Dark!
[18:53] Shuka
    Oh no!
[19:02] Emi
    Blaster Blade!
[19:03] Shuka
    Blaster Dark!
[19:07] Shuka
    What?
[19:14] Shuka
    I don't believe it. Is it... Is it really you?!
[19:20] Dark
    Huh...
[19:22] Emi
    Shuka!
[19:28] Shuka
    Elemental Calling!
[19:34] Emi
    Realize!
[19:35] Emi
    Majesty Lord Blaster!
[19:44] Dark
    What is that...?
[19:59] Shuka
    Majesty Lord Blaster...
[20:03] Shuka
    It's true...
[20:05] Shuka
    You finally came for us!
[20:51] Shuka
    At last... Majesty Lord Blaster...
[20:59] Dark
    This is still my card.
[21:05] Dark
    Thank you!
[21:07] Dark
    You showed me something I'd never seen before.
[21:10] Dark
    Farewell, magical girls.
[21:16] Emi
    Mask, the Dark...
[21:23] Ibuki
    Looks like it wasn't this distortion, either.
[21:26] Suiko
    Apparently not.
[21:28] Tatsuya
    What was that about?
[21:30] Tonori
    Dunno, yo.
[21:31] Nanami
    Me neither.
[21:34] Kanzaki
    What is all this?!
[21:37] Oyama
    I remember we were trying to come up
    with a Vanguard mascot character...
[21:42] Ryuzu
    What a mess. For now, let's tidy up...
[21:50] Kanzaki
    What is that scribble?!
[21:52] Ryuzu
    Such a lousy drawing.
[21:53] Oyama
    And yet...
[21:54] Ryuzu
    And yet...
[21:55] Kanzaki
    And yet...
[21:56] Kanzaki/Ryuzu/Oyama
    This is it! This is the one!
[22:00] Kanzaki
    At long last...
[22:00] Oyama

    My name is Kouji Ibuki.
[24:17] Ibuki
    I work to correct historical distortions,
    slowly improving my cooking along the way.
[24:20] Ibuki
    Also, next time! We learn
    Mask, the Dark's true identity!
[24:23] Suiko
    What?! At last, we'll be able to see
    the face behind the mask!
[24:26] Ibuki
    But we're too used to
    over-hyped previews like this.
[24:31] Suiko
    Some of these really don't count as previews.
[24:33] Suiko
    I've even been told that the previews
    are more entertaining than the main story.
[24:37] Ibuki
    Then, starting next week, we'll have
    one minute of story and the rest previews!
[24:39] Suiko
    But wouldn't doing that require
    even faster delivery of materials?
