**[00:01] Miwa**
All right!
**[00:03] Miwa**
Morikawa, this shop's self-declared
strongest fighter, lost to Kai
**[00:07] Miwa**
Then Kai lost to Aichi, who then lost to me...
**[00:11] Miwa**
Guess that means...
**[00:13] Miwa**
I'm the strongest fighter at Card Capital!
**[00:16] Miwa**
Aw yeah!
**[00:18] Miwa**
How'd ya like that?!
**[00:25] Shin**
This is my shop. Is there something
I can help you with, young lady?
**[00:29] Emi**
N-No, I don't need any help...
**[00:36] Emi**
R-Really, I'm not...
**[00:36] Misaki**
Welcome.
**[00:37] Emi**
Um, I'm not a customer...
**[00:40] Emi**
Um... Um, er, uh...
**[00:42] Emi**
Um... uh...
**[00:48] Emi**
How's it going, Aichi?
**[00:51] Miwa**
Aichi?
**[00:58] Aichi**
Vanguard.
**[00:59] Aichi**
It's a card game in which you yourself
become the vanguard and fight!
**[01:03] Kai**
Imagine it!
Imagination will become your strength!
***SIGN*** Image 3 Who's the Strongest Cardfighter!!
**[02:47] All**
Little sister?!
**[02:49] Emi**
I'm Emi Sendou.
**[02:51] Emi**
Thank you for letting
my big brother Aichi hang out with you.
**[02:55] Miwa**
Sure, no biggie...
**[02:57] Shin**
She's got a good head on her shoulders.
**[02:59] Misaki**
But why were you peeping through the window?
**[03:01] Emi**
Th-That's because...
**[03:05] Aichi**
See you later!
**[03:07] Emi**
Aichi's been acting weird lately.
**[03:10] Mom**
Weird? How so?
**[03:12] Emi**
He's been staying out late!
And he's in an oddly good mood.
**[03:16] Mom**
There's nothing wrong with that, is there?
**[03:18] Mom**
You don't need to worry about him.
**[03:21] Emi**
I'm not so sure...
**[03:23] Miwa**
I get it.
**[03:25] Miwa**
Naughty boy, making your little sister worry...
**[03:29] Aichi**
Sorry.
**[03:30] Emi**
But now it makes sense.
**[03:32] Emi**
Aichi changed...
**[03:35] Emi**
...after he starting coming to this shop, right?
**[03:40] Miwa**
So then!
**[03:42] Miwa**
I'm this shop's strongest--
**[03:44] Kamui**
Who's this shop's strongest fighter?!
**[03:47] The Two**
Huh...?
**[03:51] Kamui**
I, Kamui Katsuragi, have come to
challenge this shop's strongest fighter!
**[03:56] Kamui**
Wh-What're you doing?!
**[03:59] Misaki**
You're bothering the other customers.
**[04:01] Misaki**
If you're going to be noisy, you can't come in.
**[04:04] Kamui**
Wait...
**[04:05] Kamui**
I'm sorry!
**[04:07] Misaki**
All right.
**[04:08] Kamui**
Please tell me which fighter
is the strongest at this shop.
**[04:11] Misaki**
Why?
**[04:13] Kamui**
I have to beat the strongest fighter
so that I'll be stronger than anyone else!
**[04:23] Misaki**
That one, I guess.
**[04:34] Kamui**
That b-b-beautiful girl is the strongest?!
**[04:39] Miwa**
Of course not!
**[04:40] Miwa**
This shop's strongest fighter
is none other than me, Taishi Miwa!
**[04:45] Kai**
But you usually lose to me.
**[04:47] Kai**
Yeah, well you lost to Aichi before!
**[04:50] Emi**
Huh?
**[04:51] Emi**
Aichi, you beat that tough-looking guy?!
**[04:54] Aichi**
But then Miwa beat me.
**[05:02] Kamui**
The heck does that mean?!
**[05:07] Kamui**
I guess they're the strongest group...?
**[05:10] Kamui**
Then I'm gonna defeat all you guys!
**[05:14] Miwa**
Cheeky little brat. I'll beat you easily.
**[05:22] Miwa**
I lost...
**[05:27] Miwa**
Did I make some mistake?
**[05:28] Kai**
No. He's just a strong player.
**[05:31] Miwa**
Really?
**[05:33] Kai**
Stronger than you, anyway.
**[05:35] Miwa**
Say what?!
**[05:36] Miwa**
Fine, you try fighting him!
**[05:38] Kai**
Aichi.
**[05:40] Aichi**
Huh? Me?!
**[05:42] Miwa**
What are you talking about?!
**[05:44] Miwa**
Aichi lost to me, remember?!
**[05:46] Kai**
Go on, Aichi.
**[05:47] Kai**
You beat me before.
Remember what you imagined then.
**[05:52] Aichi**
O-Okay...
**[05:53] Emi**
Then Aichi really did beat him...
**[06:01] Kamui**
What? You're up next?
**[06:06] Kamui**
He wants to be the Final Boss, huh?
**[06:09] Kamui**
I'll get this over with,
then drag 'im out to fight!
**[06:18] Aichi**
N-Nice to meet you. I'm Aichi Sendou.
**[06:22] Kamui**
I'm the Great Kamui Katsuragi.
**[06:25] Emi**
Good luck, Aichi!
**[06:26] Kamui**
Wha...?!
**[06:28] Kamui**
That beautiful girl...
**[06:29] Kamui**
...is this guy's girlfriend?!
**[06:33] Kamui**
I'm gonna cream this creep!
**[06:35] Kamui**
Let's go!
**[06:37] Aichi**
O-Okay!
**[06:40] The Two**
Stand up, Vanguard!
**[06:47] Aichi**
I ride Grime.
**[06:53] Kamui**
The Great Kamui rides Battleraizer!
**[07:02] Aichi**
A r-robot?!
**[07:05] Kamui**
Huh, so your clan's Royal Paladin?
**[07:09] Emi**
Clan?
**[07:10] Shin**
I'll explain clans.
**[07:12] Shin**
They're like organizations
that the card units belong to.
**[07:16] Aichi**
I ride...
**[07:22] Aichi**
Knight Squire, Allen!
**[07:26] Shin**
Aichi's clan, Royal Paladin,
**[07:29] Shin**
is the military force of the
hallowed nation of United Sanctuary.
**[07:32] Shin**
It's noted for its steady offensive power.
**[07:35] Kamui**
The Great Kamui rides!
**[07:44] Kamui**
Raizer Custom!
**[07:46] Kamui**
And then I call Jet Raizer and Raizer Custom!
**[07:52] Shin**
Kamui's clan, Nova Grappler,
employs every form of unarmed combat.
**[07:56] Shin**
They attack relentlessly from the very start.
**[07:58] Emi**
Uh... huh...
**[08:01] Kamui**
Go, Jet Raizer!
**[08:06] Aichi**
Margal!
**[08:12] Kamui**
Now it's my turn!
**[08:14] Kamui**
Let's roll!
**[08:18] Kamui**
How'd ya like my power?!
**[08:21] Emi**
Now Aichi has 1 damage...
**[08:23] Emi**
What's going to happen to him?!
**[08:26] Miwa**
Nothing's gonna happen yet.
**[08:28] Miwa**
However...
**[08:30] Emi**
However?
**[08:31] Miwa**
If you get 6 damage, you lose.
**[08:35] Miwa**
For Aichi, that's 5 more damage.
**[08:40] Emi**
Hang in there, Aichi!
**[08:56] Aichi**
Stand up, my avatar!
**[09:03] Aichi**
Blaster Blade!
**[09:05] Kamui**
Blaster Blade?!
**[09:07] Kamui**
You've got a rare card like that?!
**[09:10] Aichi**
Ability Blast!
**[09:14] Aichi**
Burst Buster!
**[09:19] Aichi**
Knight of Silence, Gallatin!
**[09:21] Aichi**
Wingal!
**[09:25] Aichi**
Follow me!
**[09:35] Emi**
His opponent has 2 damage!
**[09:40] Kamui**
It's the Great Kamui's turn!
**[09:41] Kamui**
I ride!
**[09:46] Kamui**
Hi-powered Raizer Custom!
**[09:50] Kamui**
And then I call Hi-powered Raizer Custom!
**[09:56] Shin**
The skill of the Hi-powered
Raizer Custom he called
**[09:59] Shin**
let him call Battleraizer too.
**[10:03] Kamui**
I'm counting on ya!
**[10:13] Aichi**
Thank you, Gallatin.
**[10:14] Gallatin**
No problem.
**[10:17] Miwa**
He pulled through with an intercept.
**[10:20] Emi**
An intercept?
**[10:21] Miwa**
Yeah. An intercept is...
**[10:23] Shin**
An intercept is...
**[10:26] Shin**
...a skill that grade 2 units possess.
**[10:29] Shin**
They can switch from being rear-guards
to guardians in order to protect other units.
**[10:34] Emi**
I see...
**[10:36] Shin**
Normally, you can only call
guardians from your hand,
**[10:39] Shin**
but what's effective about
having them on the board
**[10:42] Shin**
is that they provide both offensive and
defensive strength simultaneously...
**[10:45] Emi**
This is kind of hard to follow...
**[10:47] Kamui**
I'm not done yet!
**[10:55] Kamui**
Hi-powered Raizer Custom is so cool!
**[11:00] Emi**
Aichi has 2 damage!
**[11:02] Miwa**
Uh-oh...
**[11:04] Miwa**
Maybe it was just a fluke
when he beat Kai, Manager.
**[11:08] Emi**
A fluke?
**[11:09] Shin**
I don't know...
**[11:11] Kai**
That's not the way I see it.
**[11:21] Aichi**
Here I go, Kamui!
**[11:24] Kamui**
You seem different now...
**[11:27] Aichi**
I ride this unit!
**[11:36] Aichi**
Come to me now,
**[11:37] Aichi**
leader of light!
**[11:39] Aichi**
Prince of Royal Paladins!
**[11:42] Aichi**
Alfred Early!
**[11:47] Aichi**
Imaginary Gift!
**[11:50] Aichi**
Force!
**[11:50] Emi**
Imaginary Gift?
**[12:12] Shin**
It's the power given to your Vanguard
by your comrades when you ride a grade 3.
**[12:17] Shin**
That's called an Imaginary Gift.
**[12:19] Miwa**
Alfred Early gets +10,000 power!
**[12:22] Emi**
10,000!
**[12:24] Kamui**
Shoot!
**[12:25] Kai**
You see now?
**[12:27] Kai**
Aichi's deck has more than just Blaster Blade.
**[12:33] Aichi**
Alfred Early's skill activates!
**[12:37] Emi**
Huh?
**[12:38] Shim**
Alfred Early can call Blaster
Blade from the Soul.
**[12:43] Miwa**
On top of that, Blaster
Blade gets +10,000 power!
**[12:47] Emi**
Another 10,000?! That's great!
**[12:49] Shin**
It sure is great!
**[12:51] Emi**
Uh... uh-huh...
**[12:52] Aichi**
And then I call!
**[12:55] Aichi**
Stardrive Dragon!
**[13:02] Aichi**
Margal!
**[13:11] Aichi**
Here I come!
**[13:20] Kamui**
Wall Boy!
**[13:25] Aichi**
Twin drive!
**[13:26] Aichi**
First check.
**[13:29] Kamui**
Critical trigger?!
**[13:31] Aichi**
I give the power to Blaster Blade,
**[13:33] Aichi**
and the extra critical to my Vanguard!
**[13:36] Aichi**
Second check!
**[13:40] Kamui**
Damage check!
**[13:41] Kamui**
First card...
**[13:42] Kamui**
Draw trigger!
**[13:44] Kamui**
All right! I can draw a card!
**[13:47] Kamui**
I give the effect to my Vanguard!
**[13:49] Kamui**
Second card...
**[13:50] Kamui**
No trigger.
**[13:51] Aichi**
Wingal! Us too!
**[13:53] Wingal**
Yes, sir!
**[13:55] Emi**
That's 5 damage!
**[13:58] Kamui**
Twin Blader!
**[14:02] Miwa**
Perfect guard, huh?
**[14:04] Emi**
Perfect guard?
**[14:05] Shin**
A perfect guard is...
**[14:07] Emi**
Oh!
**[14:08] Emi**
I bet that it means the ability to
completely block your opponent's attack!
**[14:12] Shin**
Th-That's right. You catch on quick.
You have a promising future.
**[14:17] Miwa**
Either way, that Kamui kid has 4 damage!
**[14:20] Miwa**
I think Aichi's got the upper hand!
**[14:23] Emi**
That's the way, Aichi!
**[14:26] Kamui**
That was just a warm-up! I'm gonna show you
the power of the Great Undefeated Kamui!
**[14:31] Emi**
Undefeated?
**[14:33] Kamui**
The Great Kamui rides!
**[14:44] Kamui**
Perfect Raizer!
**[14:47] Kamui**
Imaginary Gift! Accel!
**[14:50] Emi**
His Imaginary Gift is different from Aichi's.
**[14:57] Kamui**
Accel Circle!
**[14:58] Kamui**
This is also a rear-guard circle!
**[15:00] Miwa**
Yikes! There he goes!
**[15:02] Miwa**
This is how he took me out!
**[15:04] Emi**
Huh?
**[15:05] Kamui**
I call!
**[15:20] Miwa**
Since his front row rear-guards
got one extra unit,
**[15:23] Miwa**
he can now do four attacks!
**[15:25] Emi**
Four attacks?!
**[15:26] Kamui**
Asura Kaiser!
**[15:33] Emi**
Now he's got 3 damage!
**[15:40] Aichi**
Thank you, Blaster Blade.
**[15:43] Blaster**
Yes, my Vanguard.
**[15:45] Kamui**
You struggle in vain!
**[15:48] Aichi**
Gallatin!
**[15:51] Kamui**
I told ya!
**[15:52] Kamui**
There's no point in resisting!
**[15:55] Emi**
This'll be the fourth and final attack!
**[15:58] Miwa**
Actually...
**[16:05] Kamui**
Twin drive!
**[16:07] Kamui**
First check!
**[16:08] Kamui**
Front trigger!
**[16:10] Kamui**
With this, all my front row
units get +10,000 power!
**[16:16] Kamui**
Second check!
**[16:18] Kamui**
Another front trigger!
**[16:20] Kamui**
That's another +10,000 power!
**[16:28] Miwa**
That makes 4 damage!
**[16:29] Emi**
Still, now it's Aichi's turn!
**[16:31] Miwa**
No, he can still make two attacks!
**[16:34] Emi**
But why?!
**[16:36] Shin**
When Perfect Raizer attacks,
**[16:38] Shin**
if he pays the cost,
he can stand two rear-guards.
**[16:45] Emi**
That was paying the cost...?
**[16:48] Kamui**
It's all over!
**[16:49] Emi**
He's a goner!
**[16:51] Kai**
I'm not so sure.
**[16:52] Emi**
Huh?
**[16:53] Kai**
Aichi doesn't think so.
**[16:57] Emi**
This isn't the Aichi I know...
**[17:00] Kamui**
Asura Kaiser!
**[17:01] Kamui**
One more time!
**[17:05] Misaki**
5 damage!
**[17:06] Shin**
Misaki?
***SIGN*** Sub Manager
**[17:13] Kamui**
Here's where...
**[17:15] Kamui**
...I finish you off!
**[17:19] Aichi**
Guard!
**[17:24] Emi**
Huh?
**[17:28] Aichi**
Thank you, Epona and Epona.
**[17:31] Kamui**
I-It can't be!
**[17:33] Kamui**
My sixth attack didn't finish him off?!
**[17:38] Aichi**
It's my turn!
**[17:40] Aichi**
Here I go, Kamui!
**[17:42] Kamui**
F-Fine, do your worst!
**[17:46] Kai**
Looks like he never imagined
there would be a next turn.
**[17:49] Kai**
But Aichi did imagine it happening.
**[17:54] Aichi**
Call!
**[17:59] Aichi**
Wingal, lend me your power!
**[18:01] Wingal**
Aye aye, sir!
**[18:03] Aichi**
Twin drive!
**[18:04] Aichi**
First check!
**[18:09] Aichi**
Second check!
**[18:17] Kamui**
A critical trigger?!
**[18:36] Kamui**
Damage check!
**[18:39] Misaki**
That makes 5 damage.
**[18:42] Kamui**
This time for sure!
**[18:58] Kamui**
The Great Kamui... has lost.
**[19:03] Aichi**
Th-Thank you for the game.
**[19:10] Miwa**
It's like when he played against you.
**[19:12] Miwa**
Aichi drew a trigger right when he needed it.
**[19:16] Kai**
Still think it was a fluke?
**[19:18] Miwa**
You think it wasn't?
**[19:20] Kai**
Ever since he got Blaster Blade,
**[19:23] Kai**
because he never fought,
**[19:25] Kai**
he was putting together a deck
with only his imagination to guide him.
**[19:29] Kai**
That deck must be imbued
with the full range of his emotions.
**[19:33] Kai**
It won't betray those feelings.
**[19:37] Kai**
And the more he fights, the more
his imagination continues to evolve.
**[19:42] Kai**
That's how he beat Kamui and me.
**[19:46] Miwa**
I guess that makes sense...
**[19:49] Kamui**
I'd been undefeated
since I first started using this deck...
**[19:54] Kamui**
Just what are you, Aichi Sendou?!
**[19:57] Emi**
You did it, Aichi!
**[19:59] Aichi**
That hurt, Emi!
**[20:01] Shin**
Good thing you didn't embarrass yourself
in front of your little sister.
**[20:05] Kamui**
Little sister?
**[20:08] Kamui**
You're her big brother?!
**[20:12] Kamui**
All right, that settles it!
**[20:14] Kamui**
As of this moment,
you're my goal, big brother Aichi!
**[20:18] Aichi**
What?!
**[20:19] Kamui**
I'm counting on ya, Brother Aichi!
**[20:22] Emi**
Good for you, Aichi!
**[20:27] Aichi**
B-But I'm still just a beginner...
**[20:31] Miwa**
That's right! If you want a goal,
aim for me, the guy who beat Aichi!
**[20:36] Kamui**
What're you talking about?!
I already beat you!
**[20:42] Kamui**
Not again!
**[20:47] Shin**
Are you interested now too, Misaki?
**[20:49] Misaki**
Not at all!
**[20:56] Emi**
Please teach me how to play Vanguard, too!
**[21:02] Kamui**
I-If you like, the Great...
uh... I mean, I could...
**[21:07] Miwa**
If you need a teacher, I'm your man!
**[21:12] Shin**
Aren't you in grade school, Kamui?
**[21:14] Kamui**
Y-Yes.
**[21:16] Shin**
A fellow grade schooler
should be the one to teach her!
**[21:23] Emi**
Thank you!
**[21:28] Kamui**
I guess I could...
**[21:31] Kamui**
Come on!
**[21:32] Kamui**
Let's sit over here, Miss Emi!
**[21:35] Kamui**
It's easy to learn as we fight.
**[23:10] Kamui**
You see, Miss Emi, Vanguard is a card game
where each player has a deck of 50 cards...
**[23:17] Sub Manager**
Meow...
**[23:17] Emi**
How cute!
**[23:19] Emi**
What's the kitty's name?
**[23:21] Misaki**
His name is "Sub Manager,"
**[23:23] Misaki**
but he'll only answer to "Manager."
**[23:26] Emi**
Impressive!
**[23:27] Misaki**
But the manager here isn't that impressive.
**[23:30] Shin**
I heard that, Misaki.
**[23:32] Sub Manager**
Meow!
**[23:33] Emi**
Adorable!
**[23:34] Kamui**
U-Um, Miss Emi, about Vanguard...
