**[00:01] Shuka**
What's he even doing?
**[00:02] Emi**
Um, that kind of thing doesn't work here.
**[00:07] Ibuki**
You could've told me that earlier!
**[00:09] Ibuki**
Also, you mention it nonchalantly,
but not being able to do this is a big deal!
**[00:15] Shuka**
He lost his temper.
**[00:17] Shuka**
It's kind of late in the day to ask this,
but could you be from the Outside World?
**[00:21] Ibuki**
"Outside World"?
**[00:22] Shuka**
Ay-yi-yi. He doesn't know anything...
**[00:25] Emi**
Either way, we have to defeat that Jammer!
**[00:28] Shuka**
You're right! We don't have time to
talk to this sinister-looking old guy!
**[00:32] Ibuki**
In a situation like this, I doubt
it's a matter of having time or not.
**[00:37] Ibuki**
And I'm not old!
**[00:38] Ibuki**
Two girls and me.
If this is a physical showdown,
**[00:41] Ibuki**
then it's like an impossible video game,
based on that thing's size alone.
**[00:45] Shuka**
At a time like this...
**[00:47] Emi**
Um... Leave it to us!
**[00:51] Ibuki**
And what can you two do?!
**[00:53] Shuka**
What are you embarrassed for, Emi?
**[00:55] Emi**
But this will be our first time
transforming in front of someone...
**[00:59] Shuka**
I love that about you, Emi!
**[01:02] Emi**
Hmph! Let's just do it!
**[01:17] The Two**
The Blaster Pair is here!
***SIGN*** if 2
Battles in -if- use Magic?!
**[03:04] Ibuki**
All I can do is laugh.
**[03:06] Emi**
I'm sorry.
**[03:07] Emi**
This must be very confusing for you,
but we'll explain later!
**[03:10] Greion**
Jam-jam-jammer!
**[03:17] Ibuki**
I can't return things to normal
without being put through the wringer?!
**[03:26] Emi**
Elemental Calling!
**[03:29] Emi**
Realize!
**[03:32] Emi**
We need you, Blaster Blade!
**[03:43] Ibuki**
What is this?
**[03:44] Greion**
Jammer!
**[03:57] Ibuki**
Even Blaster Blade showed up.
**[03:59] Ibuki**
Well, after seeing Greion,
it's less of a surprise.
**[04:05] Greion**
Jammer!
**[04:10] Greion**
Jammer!
**[04:18] Shuka**
He's still injured from the last fight.
**[04:21] Emi**
Sorry, Blaster Blade...
**[04:23] Emi**
We pushed you too hard
in that battle against Aichi.
**[04:25] Ibuki**
Against Aichi?
**[04:27] Ibuki**
Blaster Blade fought Aichi Sendou?!
**[04:32] Emi**
Do you know Aichi, mister?
**[04:35] Ibuki**
Stop treating me like I'm middle-aged...
**[04:38] Ibuki**
My name is Kouji Ibuki.
**[04:40] Ibuki**
But we're talking about Aichi Sendou.
**[04:42] Ibuki**
He's pretty famous, right?
**[04:44] Ibuki**
He was the Asia Circuit champion
and won at the Vanguard Koshien.
**[04:49] Shuka**
You hear that, Emi?!
**[04:52] Emi**
I see...
**[04:56] Emi**
Then it's true.
**[04:58] Shuka**
Yeah!
**[05:01] Ibuki**
What's your relationship to Sendou?
**[05:03] Emi**
I'm Aichi Sendou's younger sister, Emi!
**[05:06] Ibuki**
Sendou's younger sister...
**[05:10] Ibuki**
A third time?!
**[05:14] Emi**
Shuka, the next card!
**[05:17] Shuka**
Um, which one...?
**[05:21] Greion**
Jammer!
**[05:23] Greion**
Jammer! Jammer!
**[05:39] Shuka**
I'm borrowing this!
**[05:48] Shuka**
There!
**[05:54] Shuka**
It's beautiful!
**[05:58] Shuka**
Here, Emi!
**[06:00] Shuka**
This week's final card!
**[06:03] Emi**
Elemental Calling!
**[06:06] Emi**
Realize!
**[06:15] Ibuki**
I've never seen that unit before.
**[06:17] Ibuki**
Is it strong?
**[06:29] Greion**
Jammer?
**[06:35] Greion**
Jammer!
**[06:42] Greion**
Jammer jammer, jammer!
**[07:04] Greion**
Jam-jam-jammer!
**[07:07] Greion**
Jam... jam... jam...
**[07:20] Greion**
JAMMERRR!
**[07:22] Shuka**
Now!
**[07:23] Shuka**
Go, Chronojet Dragon!
**[07:31] Greion**
Jam--
**[07:56] Ibuki**
Did I even need to be here?
**[07:59] Ibuki**
It's no use. I don't have even the
slightest idea what any of this is about.
**[08:08] Ibuki**
I-Is that me?!
**[08:10] Emi**
This is the right Ibuki.
**[08:14] Ibuki**
The "right" one? What do you mean by that?
**[08:17] Emi**
By "the right one," I guess I mean the Ibuki
who isn't possessed by a Jammer in this world.
**[08:24] Shuka**
Yes, that's exactly right.
**[08:27] Shuka**
You must have come from
the Outside World, after all.
**[08:29] Ibuki**
You keep saying "Outside World"!
What is this "Outside World"?!
**[08:33] Ibuki**
I mean, I've got a lot more questions.
**[08:36] Emi**
Um... How should I put it?
**[08:40] Shuka**
First, though, who are you?
**[08:44] Ibuki**
I'm an acquaintance of her big brother.
**[08:48] Shuka**
Do you know him, Emi?
**[08:50] Emi**
I can't say I do.
**[08:52] Ibuki**
Well, whatever. Can you just
explain what all of this is about?
**[08:56] Ibuki**
This situation...
**[09:02] Ibuki**
Am I coming to?
**[09:04] Ibuki**
Hey, you! I mean, me!
**[09:06] Ibuki**
I mean--wait, that doesn't matter!
**[09:09] Ibuki**
Just what's going on with this world?!
**[09:15] Ibuki**
I'm fading away!
**[09:17] Ibuki**
What the heck is this?!
**[09:17] Shuka**
I don't get it.
**[09:19] Emi**
Um, Ibuki... Let's just say,
it was good working with you.
**[09:24] Ibuki**
But if I don't deliver that deck...
**[09:27] Emi**
Deck?
**[09:29] Ibuki**
Deliver the deck!
**[09:31] Shuka**
This deck...?
**[09:36] Shuka**
He vanished.
**[09:37] Emi**
Yeah.
**[09:41] Future Ibuki**
Where am I...?
**[09:44] Emi**
U-Um...
**[09:46] Future Ibuki**
That's right! The deck!
**[09:49] Future Ibuki**
It's gone!
**[09:51] Shuka**
Um, is this it?
**[09:54] Future Ibuki**
Yes. I have to deliver it.
**[10:02] Emi**
Good. It looks like he's back
to being the normal Ibuki.
**[10:05] Shuka**
But where's he gonna deliver it?
**[10:21] Emi**
Will that do it?
**[10:22] Shuka**
Yeah.
**[10:23] Shuka**
The Ibuki who disappeared also said
he wanted to deliver that deck.
**[10:28] Emi**
You're right. It'll be fine, probably.
**[10:52] Shuka**
It's just a few of them, but now
more stars are back to normal!
**[10:55] Emi**
Yay!
**[10:58] Shuka**
Once again...
**[10:59] Emi**
...history has been...
**[11:01] The Two**
...corrected!
**[11:04] Shuka**
I hope these stars get lined up nicely soon.
**[11:07] Emi**
Yeah, me too.
**[11:08] Emi**
It seems what you told me
was true, Shuka!
**[11:12] Shuka**
I know, right?
**[11:14] Emi**
Aichi loves Vanguard!
**[11:16] Shuka**
Right!
**[11:17] Emi**
Aichi has a wonderful smile!
**[11:19] Shuka**
Uh huh!
**[11:21] Emi**
We'll get Aichi out of that castle!
**[11:24] Shuka**
Yep!
**[11:25] Emi**
But the ending isn't in sight yet...
**[11:28] Shuka**
I'm sure it'll end eventually,
**[11:30] Shuka**
when the stars are shining most beautifully!
**[11:33] Emi**
You're right.
**[11:51] Ibuki**
Ow!
**[11:53] Suiko**
These abrasions... What in
heaven's name were you doing?
**[11:58] Ibuki**
You probably won't believe this, but...
**[12:02] Ibuki**
...I fought Greion, the Vanguard unit!
**[12:07] Suiko**
That's a really dumb joke.
**[12:12] Ibuki**
Why does this only happen to me?!
**[12:15] Suiko**
Don't ask me.
**[12:17] Suiko**
But your mistake is what started all this.
**[12:20] Suiko**
So this is what you get.
**[12:22] Ibuki**
I'm not taking responsibility for
a mistake I don't remember making!
**[12:26] Suiko**
Just like a man to say that
to excuse his amnesiac self.
**[12:31] Ibuki**
I can't be blamed for
something I can't remember!
**[12:35] Suiko**
Well, I'm glad you made it back.
**[12:38] Suiko**
You fixed your mistake, didn't you?
**[12:41] Ibuki**
No. I didn't put the deck
in that shoe cupboard.
**[12:46] Ibuki**
Was it still okay?
**[12:48] Suiko**
When the consciousnesses of
two versions of the same person make contact,
**[12:52] Suiko**
it produces a paradox.
**[12:53] Suiko**
That's why, the moment
your future self woke up,
**[12:56] Suiko**
you were bounced out of that world
and returned to this one.
**[13:02] Ibuki**
As if I'd know the rules!
**[13:04] Ibuki**
And that explained nothing.
**[13:08] Suiko**
They're the universal rules of time.
**[13:10] Suiko**
Didn't you know?
**[13:11] Ibuki**
I don't know anything.
**[13:13] Ibuki**
I haven't been given
one solid detail to go on here.
**[13:17] Ibuki**
Oh, that's right.
**[13:18] Ibuki**
I met Sendou's little sister in that world.
**[13:22] Suiko**
Aichi Sendou's sister?
**[13:24] Ibuki**
I never imagined anything like that happening.
**[13:29] Suiko**
Did you meet Aichi Sendou, too?
**[13:33] Ibuki**
No, just his sister.
**[13:35] Ibuki**
And... no, you'd never believe me if I told you.
**[13:40] Ibuki**
Never...
**[13:42] Suiko**
What is it? Tell me.
**[13:44] Ibuki**
His sister transformed...
**[13:48] Ibuki**
No, that must've been a nightmare, too.
**[13:51] Suiko**
What do you mean, "transformed"?
**[13:53] Ibuki**
Enough. Let it go.
**[13:56] Ibuki**
My memory's playing tricks on me.
**[13:59] Ibuki**
So in the end, I didn't do anything
over there. Are you sure it's okay?
**[14:04] Suiko**
Yes, probably.
**[14:06] Ibuki**
How would you know?
**[14:08] Suiko**
A page from the Akashic Book that
had been sealed off is now available.
**[14:12] Suiko**
The book Nome is in charge of.
**[14:15] Ibuki**
So since he can open to that page, it went well?
**[14:19] Suiko**
If you comprehend that, good.
**[14:22] Nome**
Welcome back.
**[14:24] Nome**
It seems to have worked out, one way or another.
**[14:26] Nome**
How was it over there?
**[14:30] Ibuki**
I came back without anything accomplished.
**[14:33] Nome**
Just as I expected.
**[14:35] Ibuki**
I don't want anything more to do with this.
**[14:39] Nome**
You wish to quit? You're welcome to.
**[14:55] Ibuki**
I can still see it!
**[14:56] Nome**
That's too bad.
**[14:58] Nome**
It seems history still needs you.
**[15:02] Ibuki**
So the nightmares won't go away...
**[15:05] Nome**
That's correct.
**[15:07] Nome**
Oh, that's right.
**[15:08] Nome**
The deck was safely delivered to a certain boy.
**[15:12] Nome**
It would be nice if that
sparks his interest in cardfighting.
**[15:17] Ibuki**
I don't care either way!
**[15:19] Nome**
Oh, really?
**[15:21] Nome**
In the future, you may
become friends through cards.
**[15:26] Ibuki**
I'm not becoming friends with anyone!
**[15:28] Ibuki**
And even if we did become friends...
**[15:31] Ibuki**
...I would never tell him my name!
**[15:38] Nome**
Tea, please.
**[15:46] Shuka**
Let's dig in!
**[15:48] Shuka**
This is the best part of finishing a job!
**[15:50] Emi**
Be careful that you don't overeat, Shuka.
**[15:54] Shuka**
Yes, I know.
**[15:55] Shuka**
I assure you, I'm well aware of that!
**[16:07] Shuka**
The castle is fading away!
**[16:08] Emi**
Then Aichi will...
**[16:16] Shuka**
Not again...
**[16:18] Emi**
So he hasn't gone back to normal yet...
**[16:22] Shuka**
Still, we've never seen
such a major fluctuation before!
**[16:26] Emi**
I hope it's a good sign.
**[16:33] Shuka**
Emi!
**[16:35] Shuka**
Here!
**[16:38] Shuka**
Let's do our best for your big brother's sake!
**[16:42] Emi**
Yeah!
**[16:50] Ibuki**
Anyway, what was that about?
**[16:53] Ibuki**
Sendou's sister and her companion.
**[16:55] Ibuki**
And their actions...
**[16:57] Ibuki**
A mage and a fairy?
**[17:00] Ibuki**
Give me a break!
**[17:01] Ibuki**
And worse, a world where
Vanguard doesn't resolve anything?!
**[17:05] Ibuki**
I don't like it. I don't like any of it.
**[17:15] Nome**
It went well this time.
**[17:17] Suiko**
Yes.
**[17:18] Nome**
But it's only just begun.
**[17:20] Suiko**
True.
**[17:22] Suiko**
Um...
**[17:24] Suiko**
There's one thing that bothers me.
**[17:26] Nome**
What is it?
**[17:28] Suiko**
He said he met someone over there.
**[17:31] Suiko**
Aichi Sendou's sister.
**[17:34] Nome**
I see.
**[17:37] Nome**
He met her right off the bat, eh?
**[17:42] Nome**
It may get a little busier around here.
**[17:46] Nome**
Suiko, would you bring me that book?
**[17:51] Suiko**
Here you are.
**[17:55] Nome**
As I suspected...
**[17:56] Suiko**
Is something wrong?
**[17:58] Nome**
Something very troubling.
**[18:01] Nome**
There are even more pages I'm unable to turn to.
**[18:04] Suiko**
Shall I summon him back?
**[18:07] Nome**
No.
**[18:09] Nome**
We'd best let him get a good night's sleep,
with some pleasant dreams.
**[18:21] Nome**
As one distortion is fixed...
**[18:28] Shuka**
It split off again here.
**[18:32] Nome**
...another distortion appears.
**[18:36] Nome**
However many minor distortions arise,
**[18:39] Nome**
only a few will be of consequence.
**[18:56] Emi**
Stars appear and disappear.
**[19:00] Shuka**
But it's not like all the stars
are going to disappear, right?
**[19:04] Shuka**
It's the stars that burned the brightest
that burn out, only to become shadows.
**[19:22] Nome**
Finding major distortions and
watching over minor sequences.
**[19:28] Nome**
For as long as my time allows...
**[19:48] Ibuki**
I get the feeling I'm in for
another nightmare tonight.
**[19:51] Ibuki**
That reminds me. That castle...
**[19:55] Ibuki**
They called it Sanctuary.
**[19:59] Ibuki**
Sendou is in there.
**[20:02] Ibuki**
Then I guess I'll try to
pay him a visit tomorrow.
**[20:11] Suiko**
You got in without a fuss this time.
**[20:17] Suiko**
I suspect you know this already,
but Nome has another job for you.
**[20:29] Suiko**
We've arrived, Nome.
**[20:36] Suiko**
Nome?
**[20:41] Suiko**
Nome!
**[20:53] Suiko**
That's...
**[20:54] Suiko**
...the Akashic Book.
**[20:56] Ibuki**
The one you said Nome was in charge of, right?
**[20:59] Ibuki**
So where did he go?
**[21:01] Ibuki**
On a convenience store run?
**[21:05] Ibuki**
I can see it crystal-clear today.
**[21:21] Ibuki**
Darn it!
**[21:47] Suiko**
What happened?
**[21:48] Ibuki**
Looks like I've been taken somewhere
against my will, yet again.
**[21:53] Ibuki**
What's wrong?
**[23:46] Narrator**
The 30-second card intro segment!
**[23:48] Narrator**
Today's featured card is Neo Nectar's
Dream-spinning Ranunculus, Ahsha!
***SIGN*** Dream-spinning Ranunculus, Ahsha
**[23:53] Narrator**
By retiring two rear-guard units,
you can call an Ahsha's Flower Fairy token.
**[23:59] Narrator**
Ahsha's Flower Fairy is a special token
sharing the same name as your Vanguard, "Ahsha",
**[24:02] Narrator**
and so its power and number of criticals
also match the Vanguard's!
**[24:06] Narrator**
Grow your Ahsha units to allow
a variety of strategies to bloom!
**[24:10] Narrator**
With this card, you too can
"Ride The Vanguard"!
***SIGN*** Ride The Vanguard!
**[24:15] Ibuki**
My name is Kouji Ibuki.
**[24:17] Ibuki**
After being sucked into a weird book,
I ended up in the past in an alternate world.
**[24:19] Ibuki**
Just what does ULTRARARE
have to do with historical distortions?!
**[24:23] Suiko**
It's important!
**[24:24] Ibuki**
Well, well, Suiko.
**[24:25] Ibuki**
It looks like you're not
a successful idol in this world.
**[24:28] Suiko**
You do realize that there are
other spheres in which I can succeed,
**[24:30] Suiko**
even outside the entertainment industry?
**[24:32] Ibuki**
Is that a roundabout way of admitting
that being an idol is a stretch for you?
**[24:35] Suiko**
You try shaking your booty on a huge stage
while the crowd screams, "Take it off!"
***SIGN*** Episode 3
Jammer's Tears?! An Idol's Pride!
**[24:40] Ibuki**
No, *you* try performing in a cat-ears band!
**[24:42] The Two**
I know, right?!
