[00:01] Esuka
    The Esu Cup finals will begin shortly,
     with the right to fight me on the line!
[00:07] Esuka
    From this point on, there will be
    a change in the rules, so listen carefully.
[00:11] Esuka
    For the finals, the first team to win three
    out of five possible matches will be victorious.
[00:16] Esuka
    This isn't a knockout competition,
[00:18] Esuka
    so it doesn't matter whether three members
    all fight or one member wins three in a row.
[00:25] Esuka
    Another consideration during the fights is...
[00:28] Shin
    Just you wait, Esuka. I'm gonna
    defeat you and take back Capital!
SIGN    Remind 13   Esu Cup Match
[02:11] Shin
    You get the first match, Mark!
[02:15] Shin
    You could even win three in a row for us!
[02:20] Mikuru
    Mark, are you listening?
[02:22] Mark
    Oh! Sorry...
[02:24] Mark
    I was spacing out for a moment.
[02:27] Mikuru
    Do you feel nervous?
[02:30] Mark
    I'm just fine!
[02:32] Mark
    I'm on fire, much like how
    Nobunaga was at Honnoji Temple!
[02:36] Mikuru
    That's not the kind of fire we want!
[02:39] Tonori
    Yo.
[02:39] Tatsuya
    The finals at last, huh?
[02:42] Tonori
    We came here to show our support, yo.
[02:45] Shin
    Are you sure you're not here to eat?
[02:47] Tatsuya
    He's already cleaned out
    all the snacks in our waiting room.
[02:51] Tonori
    That match was a blast, yo.
[02:54] Tonori
    So I'm hungrier than usual.
[02:56] Shin
    A blast?
[02:58] Mark
    Verily, in what way?
[03:00] Tonori
    It's weird, yo.
[03:02] Tonori
    Even though I lost... How do I put it?
[03:06] Tonori
    It just feels like I had a good time, yo.
[03:09] Tatsuya
    Fascinating...
[03:11] Mikuru
    Huh?
[03:13] Mikuru
    Where's Nanami?
[03:18] Nanami
    Did Ms. Esuka form Team Dragon's Vanity
    in order to defeat Shinemon's team?
[03:26] Nanami
    If that's the case, what's the point
    of us being at Ms. Esuka's side?
[03:34] Nanami
    Does she...
[03:36] Nanami
    ...not need me anymore?
[03:42] Oyama
    All right! I'll be back.
[03:45] Kanzaki
    Weakness is a sin!
[03:47] Kanzaki
    Failure is unforgivable!
[03:51] Oyama
    Winning and losing depend on luck.
[03:54] Oyama
    I can't wait!
[04:00] Ruga
    Rive Shindou...
[04:04] MC
    The moment you've all been waiting for!
    The first finals match is about to begin!
[04:09] MC
    From Team Capital, Ninja Master!
[04:13] MC
    From Team Dragon's Vanity,
[04:15] MC
    the fighter of endless summer,
    straight from the snowy mountains!
[04:18] MC
    Here he is! Ryutarou Oyama!
[04:21] Mark
    I am Ninja Master.
[04:24] Mark
    Verily, I am a ninja.
[04:26] Oyama
    Oh, a real ninja wears a helmet, huh?
[04:29] Oyama
    That's great!
[04:31] Oyama
    I'm Ryutarou Oyama!
    Let's have a good match!
[04:35] MC
    Start the fight!
[04:38] Oyama/Mark
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[04:47] MC
    What?!
[04:48] Rive
    It's a bear!
[04:49] Tatsuya
    What's a bear doing out there?!
[04:51] Shin
    It's not just a bear!
[04:56] MC
    Everyone, please evacuate immediately!
[04:59] Oyama
    The man says to evacuate.
[05:02] Oyama
    Should we call this off?
[05:04] Oyama
    We're just getting started!
[05:07] Mark
    Naturally, we shall continue.
[05:10] Mark
    Ninja Art, Riding Jutsu!
[05:12] Nanami
    What's that?!
[05:18] Nanami
    Oh no!
[05:20] Nanami
    Ms. Esuka!
[05:22] Nanami
    Are you okay?!
[05:23] Esuka
    Nanamin!
[05:27] Esuka
    Help!
[05:29] Esuka
    Eeek! It's back!
[05:32] Nanami
    Yes!
[05:34] Esuka
    That one's extremely ferocious! Be careful!
[05:38] Nanami
    Nothing to worry about!
[05:39] Nanami
    Meow! Meow-meow!
[05:51] Nanami
    You're a stray, huh?
[05:52] Nanami
    Did you come here with the other animals?
[05:59] Butler
    Ms. Esuka, look at that!
[06:04] Esuka
    Come to think of it, in the mountains...
[06:10] Esuka
    These animals have come
    to root for Ryutarou Oyama!
[06:15] Esuka
    Tell all audience members
    who had evacuated to return.
[06:18] Butler
    As you wish. At once.
[06:20] Esuka
    Thank you.
[06:23] Nanami
    Please tell me one thing.
[06:25] Esuka
    What is it?
[06:26] Nanami
    Ms. Esuka, why did you
    form Team Dragon's Vanity?
[06:32] Nanami
    Were we not good enough to beat Team Capital?
[06:47] Esuka
    I decided not to give you and Tonori
    the duty of defeating Shinemon Nitta.
[06:52] Esuka
    That's all.
[06:54] Nanami
    Because we're weak?
[06:56] Esuka
    No, you're not.
[06:58] Esuka
    But I wanted a team that would
    attack them with every fiber of their being.
[07:03] Esuka
    You're fond of Shinemon Nitta,
    aren't you, Nanamin?
[07:08] Nanami
    No, I'm not.
[07:11] Esuka
    Either way, it's not as if
    I have no more use for you.
[07:17] Butler
    Ms. Esuka...
[07:19] Butler
    We are all set.
[07:23] MC
    Sorry for the wait!
[07:25] MC
    Despite some unforeseen trouble,
[07:28] MC
    the sponsor has declared the area safe,
    so you can set your minds at ease!
[07:34] MC
    We return to our scheduled play-by-play!
[07:38] MC
    The fourth turn is over,
    with Ninja Master at 3 damage!
[07:44] MC
    Oyama has 2 damage!
[07:47] Rive
    While we took cover,
    they just kept fighting, huh?
[07:51] Shin
    Good grief.
[07:53] Shin
    For a minute there, I didn't know
    what was gonna happen.
[07:56] Mikuru
    But now you're Safe Cinnamon, huh?
[07:58] Tonori
    It's just so surreal, yo.
    Seein' animals as spectators.
[08:03] Tatsuya
    Truly fascinating...
[08:09] Mikuru
    Nanami!
[08:11] Tonori
    Did somethin' happen?
[08:13] Nanami
    No, nothing.
[08:16] Mark
    Ninja Art, Riding Jutsu!
[08:23] Mark
    Evil Stealth Dragon Akatsuki, Hanzo!
[08:26] Mark
    I get an Imaginary Gift, Protect I!
[08:34] Mark
    Ninja Art, Calling Jutsu!
[08:36] Mark
    Rally to me, Evil Stealth Dragon, Zangetsu!
[08:39] Mark
    Its skill activates!
[08:41] Mark
    Ninja Art, Summoning Jutsu!
[08:44] Mark
    I superior call Evil Decoy Token!
[08:47] Mark
    All of the Tokens get Boost and +5000 power!
[08:52] Oyama
    This is exciting!
[08:56] Mark
    Kurogiri, punish Voltage Dragon!
[08:59] Oyama
    That's the plan?
[09:01] Oyama
    No guard!
[09:08] Mark
    Next, I myself shall go...
[09:10] Mark
    Yahhh!
[09:12] Oyama
    No guard for that, either!
[09:14] Mark
    Twin drive!
[09:16] Mark
    First check.
[09:18] Mark
    Second check.
[09:19] MC
    There it is! A critical trigger!
[09:21] Mark
    I give the power to Zangetsu,
     and the extra critical to my Vanguard!
[09:30] Oyama
    I'm getting a kick out of this!
[09:33] Shin
    Now he's got 4 damage!
[09:36] Mark
    Zangetsu attacks Mighty Bolt Dragon!
[09:42] Oyama
    I see now.
[09:45] Oyama
    The looming threat of a drawn-out battle
    made you take out my rear-guards, eh?
[09:51] Mark
    Verily, you see through me.
[09:53] Oyama
    That's some strategizing. Well done.
[09:57] MC
    And now it's Oyama's turn!
[10:00] MC
    The animal army cheering him on is excited, too!
[10:04] Oyama
    I ride!
[10:13] Oyama
    Dragonic Vanquisher!
[10:16] MC
    There it is! Oyama's ace in the hole!
[10:19] MC
    Dragonic Vanquisher takes the field!
[10:22] Oyama
    I get an Imaginary Gift, Accel II!
[10:28] Oyama
    I call!
[10:30] Oyama
    Demonic Dragon Berserker, Chatura!
[10:32] Oyama
    Voltage Horn!
[10:33] Oyama
    And also...
[10:35] Oyama
    Ceremonial Bonfire Eradicator, Castor!
[10:37] Oyama
    Thunder Break Dragon!
[10:42] Mark
    How strange!
[10:44] Mark
    Verily, you discarded
    your last ace in the hole!
[10:47] Oyama
    You do understand what this means, don't you?
[11:06] Oyama
    You do understand what this means, don't you?
[11:11] Mark
    Verily, you have chosen offense over defense.
[11:14] Mark
    Though you are my adversary,
    I admire your resolve.
[11:19] Oyama
    And I admire your insight!
[11:22] Rive
    Even as they battle, they swap compliments.
[11:25] Rive
    What an unusual match.
[11:27] Mark
    How enjoyable this is.
[11:29] Mark
    Verily, this fight with the
    worthy Oyama is most exhilarating!
[11:37] Oyama
    I discard one unit from my hand,
     and Castor's skill activates!
[11:41] Oyama
    I bind Zangetsu!
[11:43] Oyama
    Castor gets +5000 power!
[11:45] Oyama
    Voltage's skill is in effect,
     and it gets +5000 power!
[11:50] Oyama
    Dragonic Vanquisher's skill activates!
[11:54] Oyama
    I bind Kurogiri!
[11:57] Oyama
    Thunder Break's skill activates!
[12:00] Oyama
    I drag the Evil Decoy Tokens to the front row!
[12:07] Oyama
    Here I come!
[12:08] Oyama
    Voltage Horn attacks your Vanguard!
[12:11] Oyama
    Its skill activates!
[12:13] Oyama
    I bind Evil Decoy Token!
[12:16] Oyama
    I bound three cards,
    so Vanquisher's skill activates!
[12:20] Oyama
    All of my front-row units gain +10,000 power!
[12:27] Mark
    No guard!
[12:31] MC
    With this, Ninja Master has 4 damage!
[12:35] Oyama
    Vanquisher attacks your Vanguard!
[12:39] Mark
    Guard! Protect me!
[12:41] MC
    Oyama's attack is blocked by a perfect guard!
[12:46] Oyama
    Twin drive!
[12:47] Oyama
    First check!
[12:49] Oyama
    Second check!
[12:51] MC
    There it is! A critical trigger!
[12:58] Mark
    Might you be curious about my hand?
[13:01] Oyama
    That's right.
[13:02] Oyama
    Out of the four cards,
    one is Zangetsu and one's Tobihiko.
[13:06] Oyama
    The question is, what are the other two?
[13:10] Oyama
    This is a tough decision.
[13:12] Mikuru
    Hey, how does he know what cards Mark has?
[13:16] Shin
    He remembers Mark's drive check cards.
[13:20] Mark
    That hesitation is reminiscent of
    Kobayakawa Hideaki at Sekigahara,
[13:25] Mark
    unsure of whether to join
    the Eastern Army or Western Army.
[13:30] Oyama
    You're a funny guy.
[13:32] Oyama
    All right, that settles it!
[13:34] Oyama
    I give all of the effects to
    Thunder Break Dragon!
[13:37] Oyama
    This'll do!
[13:39] Oyama
    The attack I chose is at the expense
    of all cards in my hand, so this is it!
[13:45] Mark
    And that is why you forced me
    to use my perfect guard earlier?
[13:50] Oyama
    Oh, I'm impressed you realized that.
[13:52] Oyama
    Truly a ninja.
[13:55] Shin
    Mark is smiling, even though
    he knows he's been bamboozled.
[13:59] Mikuru
    He must really be
    enjoying the fight with Oyama.
[14:03] Oyama
    Chatura attacks your Vanguard!
[14:09] MC
    With that, Ninja Master has 5 damage!
[14:13] Tonori
    No triggers here would be real bad, yo.
[14:16] Tatsuya
    Mark, hang in there!
[14:18] Oyama
    Chatura's skill activates!
[14:21] Oyama
    I bind Evil Decoy Token!
[14:23] Oyama
    I draw one card!
[14:25] Oyama
    Castor boosts!
[14:31] Oyama
    Thunder Break attacks your Vanguard!
[14:36] Mark
    Ninja Art, Guarding Jutsu!
[14:37] Mark
    Tobihiko! Zashikihime!
[14:40] Oyama
    Zashikihime?!
[14:41] MC
    Again, Oyama's attack is blocked!
[14:46] Oyama
    So frustrating!
[14:48] Oyama
    That card was Zashikihime
    with a 20,000 shield, eh?
[14:52] Oyama
    Since Chatura's attack hit,
    I assumed I was in the clear.
[14:57] Mark
    Verily, I got back at you.
[15:01] Oyama
    And I never saw it coming!
[15:04] Butler
    That Oyama fellow certainly
    has a peculiar way of fighting.
[15:10] Esuka
    He smiles at his opponent
    while thoroughly enjoying the fight.
[15:15] Esuka
    That is his talent.
[15:18] Mark
    Stand and draw!
[15:21] Mark
    I call Chigasumi and Zangetsu!
[15:23] Mark
    Zangetsu's skill activates!
[15:26] Mark
    I superior call Evil Decoy Tokens!
[15:31] Mark
    Ninja Art, Spiriting-Away Jutsu!
[15:34] Mark
    Hanzo gains +20,000 power!
[15:37] Mark
    Furthermore, all of your rear-guards
    must return to your hand,
[15:41] Mark
    while the same number
    already in hand are discarded!
[15:45] Oyama
    Five cards?!
[15:48] Oyama
    That's a nice battle strategy!
[15:51] Oyama
    You're incredible, Ninja Master!
[15:55] Mark
    Verily, I am delighted to hear that.
[16:02] Mark
    Calling Jutsu!
[16:04] Mark
    Rally to me, Kurogiri!
[16:06] Mark
    Zangetsu's skill activates!
[16:08] Mark
    I superior call Evil Decoy Token!
[16:11] Mark
    +5000 power!
[16:13] Mark
    Again, Zangetsu's skill activates!
[16:18] Mark
    I superior call a second one!
[16:20] Mark
    Verily, all of my Evil Decoy Tokens
    gain +5000 power, as well as Boost!
[16:30] Mark
    Evil Decoy Token boosts!
[16:32] Mark
    Hanzo attacks your Vanguard!
[16:35] Mark
    Prepare yourself!
[16:37] Oyama
    No guard!
[16:41] Mark
    Drive check!
[16:43] Mark
    First check!
[16:45] Mark
    Second check!
[16:46] MC
    There it is! A critical trigger!
[16:50] MC
    Verily, Hanzo gains a critical!
[16:53] Oyama
    Okay, damage check!
[16:57] Oyama
    No trigger?!
[16:59] Tatsuya
    All right! 5 damage!
[17:01] Oyama
    One more damage point and he'll clinch it!
[17:05] Oyama
    I don't want it to be over!
    I don't want to let him end it!
[17:09] MC
    The fateful second check!
[17:11] Oyama
    If I draw a heal trigger here,
    we can continue this fun fight!
[17:17] Oyama
    The thought alone gives me a thrill!
[17:20] Mark
    Lord Oyama...
[17:22] Oyama
    Here goes my second check
    for this manly battle!
[17:26] Oyama
    Now!
[17:31] MC
    No trigger!
[17:40] MC
    It's over!
[17:43] Oyama
    Nooo, I lost!
[17:46] MC
    Ninja Master won the match!
[17:50] MC
    Team Capital has the first victory!
[17:55] Oyama
    Let's fight again, somewhere, somewhen.
[17:58] Mark
    Verily, it would be my pleasure.
[18:01] Oyama
    That really was a great fight.
[18:04] Oyama
    And above all, that helmet of yours is awesome!
[18:10] Mark
    This?
[18:11] Oyama
    Yeah! Nice!
[18:13] Oyama
    This is so cool.
[18:15] Oyana
    I see--
[18:17] Oyama
    Oh, that's right!
[18:23] Oyama
    This feels amazing!
[18:27] Oyama
    I'm from the world of Cardfight Vanguard!
[18:30] Oyama
    The spirit of the deck, Li'l Valkerion!
[18:34] Oyama
    Hey, everybody who loves card games!
[18:37] Oyama
    Let's all stand up, Vanguard together!
[18:42] Esuka
    He's in the suit I wore... That mega-pervert!
[18:47] Butler
    Please calm yourself, Ms. Esuka.
[18:48] Esuka
    Take it off already!
[18:50] Butler
    If you say the wrong thing, it's possible that
    everyone will learn that you were in the suit.
[18:50] Esuka
    How do you find that comfortable?!
[18:54] Esuka
    Wearing that thing is ridiculous!
[18:56] Esuka
    All right, fine!
[19:00] Tatsuya
    That was a great fight, Mark!
[19:02] Mark
    Yes, that has been your constant refrain.
[19:06] Mikuru
    But I know how Tatsuya feels.
[19:09] Shin
    Yeah. That was a fun fight, even just to watch.
[19:12] Tonori
    For real, yo.
[19:14] Tatsuya
    It really was a great fight.
[19:17] Mark
    Verily, you said it yet again.
[19:32] Esuka
    You're fond of Shinemon Nitta,
    aren't you, Nanamin?
[19:44] Nanami
    What's wrong?
[19:52] Nanami
    This stray cat wants you to go with it.
[19:59] Nanami
    You don't fit in anywhere either, huh?
[20:34] Shin
    All right, now it's my turn!
[20:37] Mark
    No, no, no! I'll fight in the second match, too!
[20:41] Mark
    That fight with Oyama put me in a great mood!
[20:44] Mark
    I'll use this momentum
    to snag us a second victory!
[20:51] Ruga
    I ride!
[21:01] Ruga
    Last Card, Revonn!
[21:05] Mark
    Last Card, Revonn?!
[21:07] Shin
    Mark...
[21:09] Ruga
    Revonn attacks your Vanguard!
[21:13] Mark
    Chigasumi intercepts!
[21:16] Ruga
    Twin drive.
[21:17] Ruga
    First check.
[21:18] Ruga
    Second check.
[21:20] Ruga
    Front trigger!
[21:22] Tatsuya
    Mark!
[21:23] Tonori
    Blew right through his guard, yo.
[21:44] Mark
    How mortifying. Verily, I have lost.
[21:48] Shin
    Mark... lost...
[21:59] MC
    Uh-oh... What's this?
[22:01] MC
    Ruga is glaring at the announcers' corner.
[22:04] MC
    Was it something I sa--
[22:05] Rive
    It's me.
[22:07] Rive
    The one he's looking at...
[22:10] Rive
    ...is me!
[23:46] Narrator
    The 30-second card intro segment!
[23:49] Narrator
    Today's featured card is Oyama's
    ace in the hole, Dragonic Vanquisher!
SIGN    Dragonic Vanquisher
[23:54] Narrator
    By doing a Counterblast, you can
    bind their front-row rear-guards!
[23:58] Narrator
    And if there's a grade 3 in the Soul,
    you can bind cards from your hand and theirs!
[24:02] Narrator
    On top of that, if you've bound
    three or more cards during this turn,
[24:07] Narrator
    your front-row allies get +10,000 power!
[24:11] Narrator
    With this card, you too can
    "Ride The Vanguard"!
SIGN    Ride The Vanguard!
[24:15] Shin
    Some of the cards have a weird way
    of reading their names.
[24:18] Mark
    Yeah, this looks like "Demonic Ninja Dragon,"
    but it's read as "Evil Stealth Dragon."
[24:22] Mikuru
