[00:09] Ryuzu
    I wondered what was up when you said
    you were quitting the Vanguard circuit,
[00:14] Ryuzu
    but I never imagined you were getting married!
[00:18] Rive
    Is that a bad thing?
[00:20] Ryuzu
    No, I'm impressed.
[00:22] Ryuzu
    Young as you are, about to set foot
    into that graveyard of life...
[00:26] Ryuzu
    It takes real courage.
[00:28] Rive
    Even graveyards are filled with flowers
    during the three big memorial holidays.
[00:33] Ryuzu
    She must be the one you
    introduced to me before, er...?
[00:37] Rive
    Tokimi!
[00:39] Ryuzu
    That's right! Tokimi.
[00:41] Rive
    Aren't you interested in
    anything but your research?
[00:45] Ryuzu
    Is that okay?
[00:46] Rive
    Sure! It's not every day
    that someone comes along
[00:51] Rive
    who's willing to share the journey
    of a Vanguard obsessive like me.
[00:54] Ryuzu
    You're a lucky man.
[00:56] Ryuzu
    I'd like you to marshal that
    good luck for my experiments, too.
[01:05] Rive
    Well?
[01:06] Ryuzu
    A negligible rise in
    space-time fluctuation values.
[01:08] Ryuzu
    Given the rain interference...
    it's within experimental error.
[01:12] Ryuzu
    It seems time and space
    are just too stable around here.
[01:17] Ryuzu
    Perhaps I should consider moving the lab.
[01:22] Rive
    "On Observed Changes in Space-time
    Fluctuation Values During Vanguard Cardfights,
[01:26] Rive
    and Their Potential Applications"...
[01:29] Rive
    This is the article you submitted
    to that scientific journal, right?
[01:34] Rive
    Another rejection?
[01:36] Ryuzu
    There are far too many people engaged
    in the sciences who possess closed minds.
[01:41] Ryuzu
    It's deplorable.
[01:42] Rive
    I can kind of see why
    they'd decline to publish it, though.
[01:46] Rive
    I mean, the crux of it is
    that the planet Cray really exists, right?
[01:52] Rive
    They must think you're nuts.
[01:55] Ryuzu
    So what?!
[01:56] Ryuzu
    There are countless examples of hypotheses
[01:58] Ryuzu
    that were once deemed ludicrous,
    but are now established theory!
[02:01] Ryuzu
    Like the Copernican system!
[02:03] Rive
    That scientific society's
    gonna drop you one of these days.
[02:06] Ryuzu
    Not as long as I keep up
    with their membership dues.
[02:10] Ryuzu
    Besides...
[02:14] Ryuzu
    When I announce that, it won't be in
    some journal or at a scientific conference.
[02:18] Rive
    On the internet, then?
[02:21] Ryuzu
    Oh, right! A wedding present!
[02:23] Rive
    You don't have to...
[02:25] Ryuzu
    Instead of continuing to work here part-time,
[02:27] Ryuzu
    what would you say to becoming
    a full-time employee of the lab?
[02:34] Ryuzu
    With a salary to match.
[02:37] Rive
    Seriously?!
[02:44] Rive
    It's stopped...
[02:46] Mikuru
    Bro!
[02:54] Mikuru
    I brought a spare umbrella for nothing.
[02:56] Rive
    Grade schoolers shouldn't be out at night.
[02:58] Mikuru
    I'm almost in middle school.
[03:01] Mikuru
    Besides, this may be the last time
    I have to take care of you, Bro.
[03:05] Rive
    Yeah. I'm getting married
    and have a full-time job lined up.
[03:09] Mikuru
    You've got the world in the palm of your hand!
[03:12] Rive
    Maybe I do!
[03:13] Mikuru
    Lucky guy!
[03:19] Ryuzu
    The fluctuations are especially pronounced
    on nights when there's a half-moon.
[03:24] Ryuzu
    I'll have to do a detailed analysis
    on the moon's orbit.
[03:28] Rive
    I've been curious about something.
[03:31] Rive
    I get that space and time
    become distorted during Cardfights.
[03:35] Rive
    The data supports that.
[03:37] Rive
    But the proposition that by doing so,
    something could appear from another world...
[03:42] Rive
    How are you so certain that "something"
    would be a unit from the planet Cray?
[03:46] Ryuzu
    I presented my speculations in the article,
    but folklore and myths from across the world
[03:53] Ryuzu
    demonstrate a strong connection
    between Earth and Cray since antiquity.
[03:56] Ryuzu
    Furthermore--
[03:56] Rive
    I don't buy it.
[03:59] Rive
    You must have something that proves it.
[04:04] Ryuzu
    I can hear voices.
[04:07] Rive
    What voices?
[04:09] Ryuzu
    The voices of the units.

    It's pouring...
[05:56] Mikuru
    Over here, Dumbro!
[06:02] Mikuru
    You know I'm busy studying for entrance exams.
[06:05] Mikuru
    To think I'd still be taking care of you
    as a third-year middle school student.
[06:10] Rive
    Sorry.
[06:12] Mikuru
    I-It's nothing you have to apologize for...
[06:15] Rive
    Where's Chrono?
[06:16] Mikuru
    I put him to bed after dinner.
[06:18] Rive
    I should wish him sweet dreams…
[06:20] Mikuru
    Don't you dare wake him!
[06:38] Rive
    Hello?
[06:38] Ryuzu
    It's me!
[06:41] Rive
    Is it experiment time...?
[06:43] Ryuzu
    No, there's a chance that
    something massive is going to happen!
[06:45] Ryuzu
    Can you get over here?!
[06:51] Ryuzu
    Remember how I placed
    monitoring devices at various locations
[06:54] Ryuzu
    to help find an ideal site for the lab?
[06:57] Rive
    Yeah.
[06:58] Ryuzu
    One of them has been registering values
    off the charts for the past hour!
[07:02] Ryuzu
    I've never seen numbers like this!
[07:04] Ryuzu
    And they're still rising!
[07:07] Ryuzu
    This might well generate a tremendous
    space-time distortion, causing a unit...
[07:12] Rive
    From Cray?
[07:13] Ryuzu
    ...to appear!
[07:13] Rive
    Where?
[07:16] Ryuzu
    Yumigatake!
[07:20] Tatsuya
    Ergodiel attacks your Vanguard!
[07:23] Dad
    No trigger...
[07:24] Dad
    I lose again, huh?
[07:27] Dad
    You've gotten better at this, Tatsuya.
[07:29] Tatsuya
    It's thanks to Shinemon
    and the others at Capital.
[07:33] Dad
    I see...
[07:35] Dad
    I'm sorry about that. Having to move
    after you made such good friends...
[07:42] Tatsuya
    I don't blame you, Papa.
[07:44] Mom
    For heaven's sake, are you two still up?
[07:47] Dad
    We lost track of the time...
[07:50] Mom
    Well, get to bed.
[07:51] Tatsuya
    Okay, Mama.
[08:02] Tatsuya
    The moon is pulsing?!
[08:08] Ryuzu
    Stop the van!
[08:12] Ryuzu
    Look at that!
[08:17] Ryuzu
    It's a gravitational anomaly!
[08:19] Ryuzu
    Get it on video!
[08:20] Rive
    Right!
[08:24] Ryuzu
    Here it comes!
[08:41] Tatsuya
    Wh-What? A dragon?!
[08:45] Rive
    I don't believe it!
[08:49] Rive
    It's flying!
[09:20] Ryuzu
    Wonderful!
[09:21] Ryuzu
    Units from the planet Cray,
    before my very eyes!
[09:24] Rive
    My god...
[09:26] Tatsuya
    They look like...
[09:29] Tatsuya
    Don't tell me the planet Cray actually...
[09:44] Ryuzu
    It stopped time!
[09:55] Dad
    What's happening?!
[10:34] Rive
    Are you okay, Ryuzu?
[10:38] Ryuzu
    Those were units from the planet Cray.
[10:43] Ryuzu
    Such power...
[10:47] Ryuzu
    Consider the possibilities for humanity
    if that could be effectively utilized, Rive!
[10:54] Rive
    Ryuzu...
[11:02] Ryuzu
    Rive! Our work may be the most important
    research in the history of the human race!
[11:10] Rive
    There were several villas in that area.
[11:17] Rive
    It looks like a meteorite impact.
[11:20] Ryuzu
    Yes, it does.
[11:22] Rive
    Hot! It's a wave of heat!
[11:25] Rive
    Hey! Anybody down there?!
[11:28] Rive
    Is anyone there?!
[11:34] Ryuzu
    It's hard to imagine anyone surviving that.
[11:38] Ryuzu
    The police...
[11:40] Rive
    Even if we told them what really happened,
    they would never believe us.
[11:46] Ryuzu
    I don't care about the police.
[11:48] Ryuzu
    The problem is this event could give people the
    impression that "units from Cray are dangerous."
[11:54] Rive
    There may be casualties here!
[11:56] Ryuzu
    Correct. We need to come up
    with some plausible explanation.
[12:01] Rive
    Ryuzu, you're...
[12:05] Tatsuya
    Help me...
[12:10] Rive
    Over there!
[12:11] Ryuzu
    There's actually a survivor?
[12:15] Rive
    Are you okay?! Hang in there!
[12:18] Rive
    You're...
[12:19] Rive
    ...Tatsuya?!
[12:22] Tatsuya
    Papa... Mama...
[12:38] Reporter
    On the scene at Yumigatake,
    the police are still refusing entry.
[12:43] Reporter
    With me is a witness to the incident,
    geophysicist Ryuzu Myoujin.
[12:48] Reporter
    What can you tell me about
    the meteorite impacting the ground?
[12:53] Ryuzu
    This case bears a close resemblance
    to the Tunguska Event in Russia in 1908.
[12:59] Ryuzu
    We might as well call this
    the Second Tunguska Event.
[13:02] Reporter
    The Second Tunguska Event?
[13:05] Ryuzu
    The difference is that it took them over
    100 years to get to the bottom of Tunguska,
[13:10] Ryuzu
    whereas this time, I, a scientist,
    was on hand to witness it.
[13:14] Ryuzu
    If authorities allow it, the investigation
    should go smoothly under my leadership.
[13:22] Rive
    Hey, what's this about a meteorite?!
[13:25] Ryuzu
    I just co-opted your idea.
[13:27] Rive
    What?
[13:28] Ryuzu
    You're the one who said it
    looked like a meteorite crash.
[13:32] Ryuzu
    It's easier for the world to accept that.
[13:34] Ryuzu
    What good would it do anyone
    if we made the truth public?
[13:39] Ryuzu
    More importantly, this is the
    perfect location for my new lab.
[13:43] Ryuzu
    I would do anything to build it here.
[13:50] Ryuzu
    I've received an offer of
    research funding from, er...
[13:54] Mishima
    Mishima.
[13:56] Ryuzu
    Right, Ms. Mishima.
[13:58] Mishima
    I'm only a proxy, to be precise.
[14:01] Mishima
    My employer is the one
    who will be providing the funds.
[14:04] Ryuzu
    This is Rive Shindou.
[14:06] Ryuzu
    He's my best friend, and a great collaborator.
[14:09] Mishima
    I'm Mishima. Nice to meet you.
[14:13] Rive
    Nice to meet you.
[14:15] Mishima
    I've read all of your articles, Dr. Myoujin.
[14:20] Mishima
    I think your research is amazing.
[14:24] Ryuzu
    Thank you.
[14:26] Mishima
    There's just one thing I would like
    to verify, concerning the funding.
[14:30] Ryuzu
    What is it?
[14:32] Mishima
    Was it a coincidence that you were
    in Yumigatake on the night of the event?
[14:39] Ryuzu
    It sounds to me that
    you're suggesting it wasn't a coincidence.
[14:43] Mishima
    A thorough reading of your articles tells me
[14:46] Mishima
    that some of your space-time fluctuation
    monitoring devices were present at Yumigatake.
[14:52] Mishima
    Doctor, I conclude that your reason
    for visiting there in the dead of night...
[14:57] Mishima
    ...was an observed anomaly.
[15:01] Mishima
    Tell me what really happened.
[15:04] Ryuzu
    Marvelous.
[15:07] Ryuzu
    I'll explain what actually happened that night.
[15:21] Rive
    I'm surprised you got
    permission to construct it here.
[15:24] Mishima
    No one would object to a facility being built
[15:26] Mishima
    for the purpose of investigating
    the explosion at Yumigatake.
[15:30] Rive
    What should I do?
[15:32] Ryuzu
    Help me with my experiments, of course.
[15:35] Ryuzu
    Experiments to summon units to this area.
[15:39] Ryuzu
    In short, unit summoning experiments.
[15:43] Mishima
    If these experiments succeed, that will
    also elucidate the true cause of the explosion.
[15:48] Mishima
    So it's not as if we're lying to the public.
[15:52] Rive
    You make it sound so simple.
[16:10] Ryuzu
    Rive. Before the experiment, come to my office.
[16:15] Rive
    What can I do for you, Ryuzu?
[16:18] Tatsuya
    Rive...
[16:20] Rive
    Tatsuya? What are you doing here?
[16:23] Tatsuya
    Starting today, I'll be living and working here.
[16:27] Ryuzu
    I see you need no introduction.
[16:30] Rive
    No.
[16:31] Mishima
    For now, he'll be working here
    as a research assistant.
[16:37] Mishima
    I sent you an email with
    the details of your assignment.
[16:41] Tatsuya
    Yes, I received it.
[16:43] Mishima
    Then that's all for today.
[16:46] Ryuzu
    Yes, you may go.
[16:49] Tatsuya
    Have a good evening, Director. Rive.
[17:00] Rive
    Tatsuya is still in middle school!
[17:02] Rive
    What are you doing?!
[17:04] Ryuzu
    First of all...
[17:06] Ryuzu
    Take a look at this deck.
[17:11] Rive
    The name of the clan is... Gear Chronicle?
[17:20] Rive
    Those units were from Gear Chronicle.
[17:23] Ryuzu
    Regrettably, his parents
    lost their lives in the incident.
[17:28] Ryuzu
    But it's possible that he saw what happened.
[17:31] Rive
    So you want to keep the witness close by?
[17:35] Ryuzu
    It's what he wishes, as well.
[17:39] Rive
    This is where his parents died...
[17:42] Rive
    I'm surprised he'd want to be here.
[17:45] Ryuzu
    He's smart as a whip.
[17:47] Ryuzu
    For a middle schooler.
[17:56] Rive
    Is Chrono in bed?
[17:58] Rive
    I see.
[18:00] Rive
    No, you don't have to wake him.
[18:02] Rive
    Thanks again, Mikuru.
[18:19] Ryuzu
    Gear Chronicle units appeared
    from the space-time distortion.
[18:24] Ryuzu
    In other words, it's only natural
    to assume the space-time distortion
[18:27] Ryuzu
    that still remains in this area
    has a connection to the Gear Chronicle units.
[18:33] Ryuzu
    Am I correct, Chronotiger Rebellion?
[18:37] Rebellion
    Yes. You are correct.
[18:41] Ryuzu
    In order to summon a unit via that distortion,
    we have to use the corresponding deck.
[18:49] Ryuzu
    Put that way, it seems self-evident.
[18:52] Ryuzu
    Yet I had missed it.
[18:54] Rebellion
    But now you know.
[18:59] Ryuzu
    Gear Chronicle is a clan that rules time.
[19:02] Ryuzu
    If the summoning experiment succeeds,
    and I become able to summon units at will,
[19:08] Ryuzu
    I'll be the master of time itself!
[19:12] Rebellion
    I'll do everything I can to help you, Ryuzu.
[19:16] Ryuzu
    Earth's history is in the palm of my hand!
[19:24] Rive
    Tatsuya?
SIGN    Now...
[19:31] Tatsuya
    I'm Shinemon's true opponent.
[19:36] Ryuzu
    Meaning, you wish to perform the
    unit summoning experiment with Shinemon?
[19:40] Ryuzu
    For what reason, Tatsuya?
[19:42] Rive
    You want to save your parents, don't you?
[19:45] Shin
    Tatsuya's parents?
[19:46] Butler
    Their names are on the register of those
    who died in the explosion at Yumigatake.
[19:53] Ryuzu
    Out of the question.
[19:54] Ryuzu
    You've seen my research firsthand,
    so you know why you can't.
[19:58] Tatsuya
    But I can imagine it.
[20:01] Tatsuya
    A world where my parents
    are still alive and happy.
[20:04] Ryuzu
    In your imagination?
[20:06] Tatsuya
    Then, how about this.
[20:08] Tatsuya
    Let's decide which is correct--
    your theory or my imagination--
[20:12] Tatsuya
    with a fight.
[20:14] Tatsuya
    The winner of that...
[20:16] Ryuzu
    ...will fight Shinemon Nitta, correct?
[20:20] Tatsuya
    Director, there's something
    important that you've overlooked.
[20:24] Tatsuya
    If you fight Shinemon without that information,
     the summoning experiment will not succeed.
[20:31] Ryuzu
    Oh? Intriguing.
[20:35] MC
    And now, let's have both teams enter the arena!
[20:46] Mark
    Of course everybody's surprised.
[20:49] Mark
    There's only one person
    standing on the finals stage.
[20:53] Mark
    However, until Shinemon's arrival...
[20:56] Mark
    ...then come what may,
    I shall survive on my own... verily!
[21:04] Oyama
    Um, what're you doing here?
[21:05] MC
    Uh...
[21:06] MC
    This is for the match to decide third place...
[21:13] Mikuru
    Oh, Mark...
[21:18] Mark
    Verily, it appears I had not been summoned...
[21:22] Mark
    In which case, I shall make my exit.
[21:28] Oyama
    Ninja Master's one heck of an entertainer!
[21:31] Tonori
    He was alone, yo.
[21:33] Nanami
    Yeah...
[21:35] Nanami
    Ms. Esuka isn't here yet, either.
[21:37] Nanami
    I have a feeling something bad is happening.
[21:45] Esuka
    I wonder what's happening with the Asia Circuit.
[21:49] Shin
    All I can do is have faith in Mark.
[21:51] Ryuzu
    And if I win, you'll tell me
    what it is I've overlooked?
[21:56] Ryuzu
    Assuming that something even exists.

[24:29] Ryuzu
    I've been receiving letters like this.
[24:31] Rive
    A journal actually published it?!

    Alongside articles about the Lost Continent
    of Mu, Nostradamus, and spirit photography.
