**[00:14] Tetsu**
No Life King, Death Anchor!
**[00:21] Aichi**
No Life King, Death Anchor...
**[00:28] Blaster**
Be on guard.
**[00:29] Blaster**
Be on guard!
**[00:35] Tetsu**
Show me your PSYqualia, Aichi Sendou!
**[00:43] Aichi**
Huh?
**[00:44] Aichi**
What do you mean by, "be on guard"?
**[00:48] Tetsu**
Come to me!
**[00:49] Tetsu**
Doreen the Thruster!
**[00:51] Tetsu**
Gwynn the Ripper!
**[00:54] Tetsu**
Skill activates!
**[00:56] Tetsu**
Soul charge!
**[00:58] Tetsu**
Is this any time to be distracted?!
**[01:03] Aichi**
Gallatin!
**[01:04] Tetsu**
Next will be...
**[01:06] Tetsu**
...you!
**[01:09] Unit**
Leave it to me!
**[01:11] Aichi**
Iseult!
**[01:13] Tetsu**
But I got a critical trigger.
**[01:15] Tetsu**
I entrust it to Gwynn the Ripper!
**[01:18] Blaster**
Be on guard.
**[01:22] Aichi**
Against that?
**[01:27] Aichi**
No Life King, Death Anchor...
**[01:30] Aichi**
Grade 3... 12,000 power...
**[01:34] Kamui**
B-Brother Aichi?
**[01:36] Aichi**
Twin drive... Imaginary Gift is Protect...
**[01:40] Blaster**
Be on guard...
**[01:42] Blaster**
...my Vanguard!
**[01:46] Aichi**
Something's coming!
**[01:49] Tetsu**
Go, Gwynn!
**[01:50] Tetsu**
Together with Prisoner Beast!
**[02:02] Kamui**
Careful!
**[02:06] Kyou**
That wasn't even the final blow, so why...?
**[02:10] Kyou**
What's going on here?!
**[02:12] Tetsu**
His resonance has been amplified.
**[02:15] Tetsu**
In other words...
**[02:16] Tetsu**
Aichi Sendou is experiencing
his units' damage as if it were his own.
**[02:21] Kyou**
If that's true, then maybe...
**[02:26] Tetsu**
Haven't you noticed?
**[02:28] Tetsu**
For the past few minutes,
**[02:30] Tetsu**
he's been exhibiting PSYqualia.
***SIGN*** Image 20 Reunion
**[04:13] Kyou**
What do you mean, Tetsu?!
**[04:15] Kyou**
This never happens to Ren!
**[04:17] Tetsu**
That's because Ren has
total control over his PSYqualia.
**[04:22] Kamui**
Then would ya explain it to me?!
***SIGN*** Psy-Casserole
**[04:25] Kamui**
Since yesterday, this guy's been irritating me
with his talk about that "psy-casserole" stuff!
**[04:30] Kyou**
It's PSYqualia.
**[04:33] Tetsu**
How much information
can you learn from a card?
**[04:38] Kamui**
That's obvious.
**[04:39] Kamui**
Grade, power, shield, special abilities...
**[04:43] Kamui**
And, uh...
**[04:45] Tetsu**
It's different for someone with PSYqualia.
**[04:48] Tetsu**
When his PSYqualia manifests...
**[04:52] Tetsu**
...it greatly amplifies his resonance,
and creates a cognitive breakthrough.
**[04:59] Tetsu**
This means that...
**[05:01] Tetsu**
In addition to cognitive expansion
and increased sensitivity,
**[05:04] Tetsu**
he also gains powerful intuition and insight,
**[05:08] Tetsu**
as well as linkages to the residents of
the planet Cray depicted on the cards,
**[05:12] Tetsu**
and even the capability
to predict the flow of the fight.
**[05:18] Aichi**
I don't know whether or not
I actually have that ability.
**[05:24] Aichi**
But I do know that this fight
is one I can't afford to lose!
**[05:29] Aichi**
I ride!
**[05:30] Aichi**
The master of paladins!
**[05:35] Aichi**
King of Knights, Alfred!
**[05:42] Aichi**
Imaginary Gift! Force!
**[05:47] Aichi**
Attend me, Blaster Blade!
**[05:51] Blaster**
Yes, my Vanguard.
**[05:58] Blaster**
This opponent is dangerous.
**[06:00] Blaster**
Be on guard!
**[06:01] Aichi**
I understand.
**[06:03] Aichi**
But I don't know what to do about it.
**[06:06] Aichi**
Knight Squire, Allen!
**[06:07] Aichi**
Knight of Silence, Gallatin!
**[06:10] Gallatin**
No problem!
**[06:12] Aichi**
For now, all we can do is attack!
**[06:15] Tetsu**
Guard! Vroukalakas!
**[06:19] Tetsu**
Skill activates! Soul charge!
**[06:22] Aichi**
Now I'll go!
**[06:30] Kamui**
That makes 5 damage!
**[06:31] Kyou**
But Tetsu has...
**[06:33] Blaster**
I'll finish you off!
**[06:35] Tetsu**
Protect activates!
**[06:45] Tetsu**
I haven't told you my request yet.
**[06:47] Aichi**
Request?
**[06:49] Tetsu**
If you win, we'll stop fighting with VF Gloves.
**[06:53] Tetsu**
But if I win,
**[06:56] Tetsu**
I want you to tell me
what Vanguard means to you.
**[07:01] Tetsu**
Is that a problem?
**[07:03] Aichi**
No.
**[07:04] Aichi**
I accept.
**[07:07] Aichi**
What Vanguard means to me...
**[07:11] Asteroid A**
Who the heck are you guys?
**[07:14] Miwa**
Nobody whose names you deserve to hear.
**[07:16] Asteroid A**
What?!
**[07:17] Kai**
I'm here to see Ren. Take me to him.
**[07:21] Asteroid D**
To see Ren?
**[07:22] Asteroid B**
You guys know our rule, don't ya?
**[07:25] Kai**
Winners get all.
**[07:27] Miwa**
Losers get lost!
**[07:28] Kai**
We just have to beat all of you, right?!
**[07:32] Miwa**
Count me in!
**[07:34] Tetsu**
Prisoner Beast!
**[07:36] Tetsu**
Blood Sacrifice, Ruthven!
**[07:39] Tetsu**
Skill activates! Soul charge!
**[07:47] Blaster**
He's accumulating power.
**[07:49] Aichi**
I know, but...
**[07:52] Tetsu**
This is where your countdown to defeat begins.
**[08:02] Aichi**
Gallatin!
**[08:06] Elaine**
Look out!
**[08:06] Wingal**
My Vanguard!
**[08:08] Aichi**
Elaine! Wingal!
**[08:13] Tetsu**
All conditions have now been met.
**[08:16] Tetsu**
There are 13 cards in the Soul.
**[08:19] Tetsu**
I place one card from my hand,
along with three rear-guards, into the Soul.
**[08:26] Tetsu**
Skill activates!
**[08:29] Tetsu**
Once again, I summon the king of the undead!
**[08:36] Tetsu**
I ride!
**[08:39] Tetsu**
No Life King, Death Anchor!
**[08:43] Kamui**
He's riding No Life King, Death Anchor again?!
**[08:46] Kyou**
It's really powerful!
**[08:48] Kyou**
With 18 cards in the Soul,
as well as triggers...
**[08:52] Kyou**
That's a total of...
**[08:54] Kamui**
How much?!
**[08:55] Kyou**
A huge amount!
**[08:57] Aichi**
So this is what I was warned about.
**[09:01] Tetsu**
Death Anchor will now bring about your doom.
**[09:04] Tetsu**
Breakdown Death Breath!
**[09:14] Kamui**
Brother Aichi!
**[09:20] Tetsu**
Aichi Sendou.
**[09:22] Tetsu**
Your PSYqualia falls far short of Ren's.
**[09:27] Aichi**
Ren...
**[09:37] Voice A**
I'm next!
**[09:38] Voice B**
You punk!
**[09:39] Asaka**
It's so noisy.
**[09:41] Asaka**
What's going on out there?
**[09:43] Asaka**
You go look.
**[09:45] Kawanami**
Woof, Asaka!
**[09:49] Kai**
Here's where I finish you off!
**[09:51] Miwa**
Bring it on!
**[09:53] Kawanami**
Those guys are...
**[09:57] Kawanami**
Oh my gosh!
**[09:59] Kawanami**
Asaka!
**[10:00] Asaka**
What's wrong?
**[10:02] Kawanami**
It's him...
**[10:03] Kawanami**
Toshiki Kai is here!
**[10:06] Asaka**
What did you say?!
**[10:08] Asaka**
And it's while Ren's away...
**[10:11] Asaka**
Just where is he?!
**[10:18] Ren**
Huh?
**[10:21] Ren**
Did I maybe take a wrong turn someplace?
**[10:37] Kamui**
Brother Aichi! Brother Aichi!
**[10:42] Kamui**
Thank goodness, you've come to!
**[10:45] Kyou**
After that big fainting scene...
**[10:47] Kyou**
Don't scare us like that!
**[10:49] Aichi**
Kamui...
**[10:51] Aichi**
Kyou...
**[10:55] Aichi**
I see. I lost, didn't I.
**[11:01] Tetsu**
Do you remember my request?
**[11:05] Tetsu**
What does Vanguard mean to you?
**[11:10] Tetsu**
What's your reason for fighting?
**[11:12] Tetsu**
Why do you want to win?
**[11:16] Aichi**
To me, Vanguard is all about "relationships."
**[11:22] Aichi**
With Kamui...
**[11:25] Aichi**
With Morikawa, and Miwa...
**[11:27] Aichi**
With Misaki, and Shin...
**[11:30] Aichi**
With everyone at Voyage...
**[11:33] Aichi**
Even with the members of
Team Asteroid I met yesterday and today.
**[11:40] Aichi**
But most of all...
**[11:43] Aichi**
...with Kai.
**[11:45] Aichi**
It's what let me become friends with Kai.
**[11:48] Tetsu**
Did you say, "Kai"?!
**[11:51] Aichi**
Before Vanguard...
**[11:54] Aichi**
...I never thought I was worth anything.
**[12:00] Aichi**
But now...
**[12:02] Aichi**
...during my Vanguard fights,
I can feel confident in myself.
**[12:06] Aichi**
I'm able to think that my life has some value.
**[12:14] Aichi**
That's why...
**[12:17] Tetsu**
You have a lot in common with Ren.
**[12:21] Tetsu**
And with Kai, too.
**[12:22] Aichi**
Huh?
**[12:24] Tetsu**
You expressed yourself admirably.
**[12:26] Tetsu**
You have my gratitude, Aichi Sendou.
**[12:29] Kyou**
Hey, Tetsu!
**[12:33] Kyou**
Hey, wait!
**[12:35] Kyou**
You're just gonna leave?!
**[12:37] Kyou**
But he has PSYqualia!
**[12:40] Kyou**
Doesn't that make him
an important research subject?!
**[12:43] Tetsu**
Of course he's important.
**[12:45] Tetsu**
But Sendou hasn't yet perfected his PSYqualia.
**[12:49] Tetsu**
Now is the time to wait for it to develop.
**[12:52] Kyou**
And that's all?!
**[12:54] Tetsu**
As long as he continues to play Vanguard,
**[12:57] Tetsu**
we won't lose sight of him.
**[13:00] Tetsu**
One thing I can tell you...
**[13:02] Tetsu**
You won't be able to gain PSYqualia
just from observing Sendou fight.
**[13:14] Ren**
This isn't the place, is it?
**[13:18] Kamui**
Hang in there, Brother Aichi.
**[13:22] Ren**
Are you okay, boy?
**[13:26] Aichi**
S-Sorry.
**[13:29] Ren**
It's all right. Go on, grab my arm.
**[13:32] Aichi**
Th-Thank you.
**[13:40] Aichi**
S-Sorry about that.
**[13:42] Ren**
No, it's fine.
**[13:44] Ren**
Oh, right.
**[13:46] Ren**
Is there another card shop around here?
**[13:49] Aichi**
What's the name of the shop?
**[13:50] Ren**
Unfortunately, I forgot the name already...
**[13:54] Ren**
I've been there once before,
so I'd probably recognize it again...
**[13:59] Kamui**
Then why not come with us?
**[14:01] Kamui**
We're heading to a shop called Card Capital.
**[14:05] Ren**
Now that sounds like a great plan!
**[14:17] Tetsu**
Up until now, I'd thought PSYqualia
might be obtainable via an external stimulus.
**[14:25] Tetsu**
That's the reason why...
**[14:29] Kyou**
Why you invented the VF Gloves?
**[14:32] Tetsu**
However, after hearing
what Sendou said back there,
**[14:36] Tetsu**
I now believe that the key is
more likely to be an internal factor.
**[14:42] Kyou**
What do you mean?
**[14:44] Tetsu**
Put simply,
**[14:46] Tetsu**
when somethings happens
to break through a person's shell,
**[14:50] Tetsu**
that stimulus may cause them to become
receptive to sensations from a different realm.
**[14:57] Tetsu**
That's what I mean.
**[14:59] Kyou**
That wasn't simple at all!
**[15:03] Tetsu**
Essentially, no matter how long
you may pursue Ren or Sendou,
**[15:08] Tetsu**
you can never reach PSYqualia.
**[15:14] Tetsu**
Even so...
**[15:16] Tetsu**
Both Ren Suzugamori and Aichi Sendou...
**[15:18] Tetsu**
Is it mere coincidence that Toshiki Kai
is connected to their "awakenings"? Or is it...
**[15:27] Tetsu**
It's me.
**[15:30] Tetsu**
What?! Kai?!
**[15:42] Asteroid C**
He's too strong...
**[15:44] Asteroid B**
He's a monster.
**[15:45] Asteroid D**
There's no way I can beat him...
**[15:50] Kai**
Who's next?
**[15:56] Kamui**
We're here, Brother Aichi.
**[15:59] Ren**
Oh, right.
**[16:01] Ren**
I'm pretty sure this was the shop.
**[16:05] Ren**
Misa-Q!
**[16:07] Misaki**
You!
**[16:08] Misaki**
Get away from him!
**[16:09] Kamui**
Wh-What're ya doing, Misaki?!
**[16:13] Aichi**
He helped me to get here.
**[16:16] Ren**
That's right, Misa-Q.
**[16:18] Misaki**
Don't give me some creepy nickname!
**[16:21] Misaki**
Listen, Aichi! This guy...
**[16:23] Misaki**
...is Ren Suzugamori!
**[16:25] Misaki**
He's the boss of Team Asteroid!
**[16:28] Kamui**
Say what?!
**[16:29] Kamui**
A scatterbrain like him
is the boss of Team Asteroid?!
**[16:33] Aichi**
Then the "Ren" that
Kyou and Tetsu mentioned...
**[16:37] Ren**
Yeah, I'd say they were referring to me.
**[16:41] Misaki**
What did you come here for?!
**[16:43] Misaki**
Kai isn't here today.
**[16:45] Ren**
He's not?
**[16:47] Ren**
That's a bummer.
**[16:51] Aichi**
Ren...
**[16:52] Aichi**
You know Kai?
**[16:55] Ren**
Of course. I know him well.
**[16:58] Ren**
I aspire to be like Kai,
**[17:01] Ren**
and we used to be friends
united by our devotion to Vanguard.
**[17:06] Aichi**
Friends?
**[17:09] Ren**
Back then...
**[17:12] Ren**
...he was known as the "Solitary Fighter."
**[17:17] Ren**
Waves of confident fighters
would come to challenge Kai,
**[17:25] Ren**
but not a single one was a match for him.
**[17:29] Ren**
That included me.
**[17:32] Ren**
To me, Toshiki Kai was
the epitome of "strength."
**[17:38] Ren**
But he was too strong.
**[17:41] Ren**
Everyone grew sick of
Kai's overwhelming strength.
**[17:44] Ren**
Until eventually...
**[17:48] Ren**
...there was nobody left
who'd challenge him to a serious fight.
**[17:56] Ren**
I came here to rescue Kai.
**[17:59] Ren**
To give him the serious fight
that he's always wanted...
**[18:02] Ren**
...I acquired a "power" that surpasses his.
**[18:11] Kai**
What's wrong?
**[18:12] Kai**
Are we done already?
**[18:15] Miwa**
Kai, you're...
**[18:17] Asaka**
Me.
**[18:19] Asaka**
I'll fight you, Toshiki Kai.
**[18:21] Miwa**
Hey, that Asaka girl!
**[18:24] Kai**
Who?
**[18:25] Miwa**
She's the one who beat me yesterday!
**[18:28] Asaka**
I'm Asaka Narumi of Team Asteroid's AL4.
**[18:33] Asaka**
Allow me to guide you to our special room.
**[18:48] Tetsu**
So his fight with Asaka is about to begin...
**[18:51] Kyou**
That's Toshiki Kai,
the guy Ren was looking for!
**[18:55] Asaka**
You're not worthy of saying Ren's name!
**[18:57] Asaka**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[18:57] Kai**
Stand up, The Vanguard!
**[19:02] Aichi**
Sorry for having you walk me
to the station too, Misaki.
**[19:06] Misaki**
I was going to go shopping near there, anyway.
**[19:08] Ren**
You're so kind, Misa-Q.
**[19:10] Misaki**
Shut up!
**[19:12] Ren**
Still, it's unfortunate.
**[19:15] Ren**
That I didn't get to see Kai...
**[19:17] Kamui**
Kai's no big whoop!
**[19:20] Kamui**
Why, Brother Aichi here has beat 'im before.
**[19:23] Aichi**
K-Kamui!
**[19:27] Ren**
Is that true?
**[19:28] Aichi**
Y-Yes...
**[19:30] Aichi**
But just once.
**[19:34] Ren**
I'm now extremely
interested in you, Aichi Sendou.
**[19:41] Kawanami**
I'm positive.
**[19:42] Kawanami**
Ren's scent is this way!
**[19:48] Ren**
Huh?
**[19:49] Kawanami**
Woof!
**[19:50] Kawanami**
I have a message!
**[19:51] Kawanami**
Master Ren, please return right away!
**[19:53] Kawanami**
Toshiki Kai has shown up at headquarters!
**[20:01] Ren**
Shall we go there, Aichi?
**[20:05] Aichi**
Huh?
**[20:10] Kai**
I just can't get into the game
with opponents like that.
**[20:14] Miwa**
You never do go easy on anyone.
**[20:20] Asaka**
To think Toshiki Kai was this strong...
**[20:25] Kyou**
What is this guy?!
**[20:32] Asaka**
I lost... again...
**[20:36] Asaka**
Now I'll never be able to stay by Ren's side...
**[20:42] Tetsu**
You need greater diligence.
**[20:49] Tetsu**
I never expected to see you here.
**[20:52] Tetsu**
What do you want?
**[20:53] Kai**
I'm annoyed about all the members of
Team Asteroid hanging around my neighborhood.
**[20:59] Tetsu**
Honestly. You're something else.
**[21:02] Tetsu**
By the way, I ran into an interesting fighter today.
**[21:06] Kai**
It's rare to hear you
call anyone "interesting."
**[21:10] Tetsu**
He's still inexperienced, though.
**[21:12] Tetsu**
His name is Aichi Sendou.
**[21:16] Kai**
What?!
**[21:17] Ren**
My, what's this?
**[21:19] Ren**
I never thought you'd be the one to come to me.
**[21:27] Ren**
Long time no see, Kai.
**[23:10] Miwa**
Kai and Ren finally meet again!
**[23:12] Miwa**
All of Team Q4 and AL4 are present, too!
**[23:14] Miwa**
But who's gonna fight whom?!
**[23:16] Miwa**
The favorite is Kai vs. Ren!
Current odds are 1.3!
**[23:19] Miwa**
The rival is Ren vs. Aichi,
with current odds 2.0!
**[23:22] Miwa**
And we can't discount the prospect
of a Q4 versus AL4 team battle!
**[23:25] Miwa**
The dark horse is that
we have a big BBQ party instead!
**[23:28] Miwa**
It seems totally unlikely,
which makes it all the more possible!
**[23:31] Miwa**
Or will Kawanami's powers awaken
and beat everybody?
**[23:34] Miwa**
All right, place your bets!

That's not a preview,
it's a horse race prediction!
