[00:14] Ibuki     Here. [00:15] Suiko     What about the doughnuts? [00:17] Ibuki     They didn't have them. [00:19] Suiko     Did you actually look? [00:21] Ibuki     If you want them so badly, you do the shopping. [00:23] Suiko     Obviously, I can't! [00:25] Suiko     I'm a top idol. [00:28] Ibuki     You cook? [00:30] Suiko     "Cooking" is listed as one     of my hobbies on my profile. [00:33] Ibuki     Darn it! [00:35] Ibuki     How long do we have to     stay here playing house?! [00:38] Suiko     This is no picnic for me, either. [00:41] Suiko     I want to go back to our own world. [00:43] Suiko     However... [00:45] Suiko     ...we can't go home until     we correct all of the distortions. [00:48] Suiko     Remember? [00:51] Ibuki     There, you see? Speak     of the devil, and he'll appear. [00:56] Suiko     Shuka found a distortion. [00:58] Suiko     Let's go. [00:59] Ibuki     Sure. Nothing else to do. SIGN    if 5      Enemy or Ally?! Mask, the Dark!! [02:50] Shuka     Jeez! Would you watch where you're falling?! [02:53] Suiko     Sorry. [02:54] Ibuki     We're still not used to this. [02:57] Ibuki     So, where are we? [02:58] Ibuki     Where's the Jammer? [03:00] Kawanami     Hey, you're jamming the path! [03:02] Ibuki/Suiko     "Jamming"?! [03:03] Kawanami     If someone is sitting     in the middle of the path, [03:05] Kawanami     flirting with middle school girls,     I'd definitely call that jamming! [03:08] Ibuki     Wait, you seem familiar... [03:13] Kawanami     You really don't know my name? [03:15] Kawanami     Are you sure you're Fukuhara High students? [03:19] Asaka     Dearest Minami! [03:24] Suiko/Ibuki     "Dearest Minami"? [03:26] Asaka     What's the matter? [03:28] Kawanami     You came at a good time... [03:31] Kawanami     ...Asaka, bae. [03:33] Suiko/Ibuki     "Bae"? [03:35] Kawanami     Inform these ignorant boors     as to just who I happen to be. [03:41] Asaka     It would be my pleasure. [03:44] Asaka     Hey you, moptop! [03:46] Ibuki     Mop--! [03:48] Asaka     Clean out your ears and listen carefully. [03:51] Asaka     You are in the presence of Fukuhara High's     Vanguard Club's commander-in-chief, [03:56] Asaka     Minami Kawanami! [03:58] Asaka     You all had better bow down before your better! [04:04] Ibuki     Wait, what? [04:06] Ibuki     What about Ren Suzugamori? [04:08] Ibuki     Isn't he Fukuhara High's head man? [04:12] Asaka     "Ren"? Who's that? [04:14] Ibuki     Don't play dumb! [04:16] Ibuki     You're crazy about that guy! [04:20] Asaka     Never heard of him!     Minami is the only one I love! [04:25] Kawanami     Yep. And I too love only you, bae. [04:29] Ibuki     Now I get it. You're both Jammers! [04:34] Ibuki     I'll correct your distorted relationship! [04:39] Suiko     Hasn't it sunk in yet?! [04:40] Suiko     Vanguard can't do a thing against Jammers. [04:44] Ibuki     I get your point, elbow. [04:47] Ibuki     Hey, Sendou's little sister! [04:49] Ibuki     Take care of these two! [04:51] Emi/Shuka     We refuse! [04:53] Ibuki     Why?! [04:54] Emi     I mean, neither of them     have the mark of the Jammer... [05:01] Ibuki     You're right. [05:02] Suiko     Get your act together! [05:04] Asaka     This is a waste of time. [05:05] Asaka     Shall we go, dearest Minami? [05:07] Kawanami     Sure. I'd go anywhere with you, Asaka my bae. [05:10] Emi/Shuka     Well, we're out of here, too. [05:12] Ibuki     Wait! Where are you going?! [05:14] Emi     Where? We're going home. [05:16] Shuka     I'm hungry... [05:18] Emi     So am I. [05:19] Ibuki     Blast it! [05:20] Ibuki     Stick around. I'll treat you to ramen. [05:24] Shuka/Emi     Really?! [05:25] Emi     Then that's a different story! [05:27] Shuka     I love getting treated! [05:34] Emi     I don't get it. [05:37] Shuka     Get what? [05:38] Emi     That Kawanami guy acts all arrogant, [05:41] Emi     but is it really that prestigious     being the leader of the Vanguard Club? [05:45] Ibuki     Fukuhara High is a powerhouse school [05:47] Ibuki     that's a contender for first place     at the Vanguard Koshien every year. [05:50] Ibuki     Although that's in the world where     Ren Suzugamori captains the Vanguard Club. [05:56] Emi     Ren Suzugamori? [05:58] Ibuki     He's the guy who had a fierce fight     against Aichi Sendou at the Koshien finals. [06:03] Ibuki     By all rights, he should be     the leader of Fukuhara's club. [06:12] Emi     Thanks for the ramen. [06:14] Shuka     Emi, wait! [06:15] Ibuki     Hey, I wasn't done with my explanation! [06:18] Shuka     Emi! [06:20] Emi     Ren Suzugamori... [06:22] Emi     He said Ren Suzugamori     fought Aichi at the Vanguard Koshien. [06:29] Emi     There's a world where that happens! [06:34] Shuka     It's okay. We'll be able to get that world back. [06:39] Emi     Shuka... [06:40] Shuka     First, let's search for that Ren Suzugamori. [06:43] Shuka     Doesn't it seem fishy to you? [06:45] Shuka     Ren Suzugamori of Fukuhara High's Vanguard Club. [06:49] Shuka     He must be the core of this distortion! [06:52] Emi     You're right. Let's go, Shuka! SIGN    Ramen [06:55] Shuka     Yeah! SIGN    Matsusaka Beef Bowl [07:03] Suiko     Hey, are we really doing this? [07:06] Ibuki     Yeah. Let's begin this undercover operation. SIGN    Reception [07:09] Suiko     Hold on! I'm a top idol. [07:12] Suiko     What happens if we get caught,     and this hits the tabloids?! [07:15] Ibuki     Don't worry, you lack the telltale idol aura. [07:18] Ibuki     In the first place... [07:21] Ibuki     ...isn't wearing that school uniform... [07:23] Ibuki     ...a bit of a str-- [07:26] Suiko     Do what you want. [07:28] Suiko     From now on, you're on your own. [07:31] Ibuki     Seriously?! [07:33] Guard     Sorry, girls. [07:35] Shuka     Isn't there some way...? [07:36] Emi     Please! [07:38] Suiko     What's up? [07:40] Emi     Suiko? [07:41] Guard     You know them? [07:42] Suiko     Yes. [07:44] Guard     This girl wants to deliver     a lunchbox to her older brother, [07:48] Guard     but she doesn't know what class     or even what year he's in. [07:51] Guard     It's not that I don't believe them, [07:54] Guard     but security has gotten tighter around here, [07:56] Guard     so only students and staff are allowed inside. [07:59] Shuka     Oh, come on! [08:00] Emi     My brother is probably so hungry     that he can't concentrate in class! [08:06] Guard     What's his name? [08:07] Shuka/Emi     Ren Suzugamori! [08:10] Suiko     It's probably easier to get a bead on Jammer     movements by hanging out with these two... [08:15] Suiko     All right. I'll take you to your brother. [08:19] Shuka     Really?! [08:20] Emi     Thank you! [08:22] Guard     Sorry for the hassle. [08:25] Suiko     What do you want with Ren Suzugamori? [08:28] Shuka     Isn't it obvious? [08:30] Emi     Ren Suzugamori is at     the center of this distortion. [08:34] Shuka     He has to be the Jammer boss! [08:36] Suiko     Do you have proof? [08:37] Shuka     Call it girls' intuition! [08:39] Suiko     That's what you're going on?! [08:41] Shuka     But still... [08:42] Shuka     ...I didn't realize the school was so big. [08:45] Shuka     How many classrooms are there? [08:47] Emi     If we peek in each room,     we'll be here till sunset! [08:50] Suiko     Okay, follow me. SIGN    Principal [08:55] Emi     Excuse us. [08:57] Suiko     Here we go. [08:59] Shuka     You're allowed to use that? [09:02] Suiko     Of course not. [09:06] Suiko     Bingo. [09:08] Emi     Hackers always say "bingo," you see? [09:11] Shuka     Why? [09:12] Emi     Good question... [09:14] Suiko     I believe Ren Suzugamori's class is...

[09:21] Suiko     What did you suspect? [09:23] Emi     That. [09:26] Ibuki     This world is different... [09:28] Ibuki     ...so how is it that the     security system is the same?

SIGN    Ren Suzugamori SIGN         Did you mean:      Suzugamori Park      Suzugamori Rakugo Club      Suzugamori Kabuki Theater [09:56] Suiko     There is no Ren Suzugamori in this world?! [10:00] Asaka     Well, well, we meet again. [10:03] Asaka     And what might you be looking for? [10:07] Suiko     Asaka Narumi! [10:13] Ibuki     Yikes! [10:14] Bidou     Whoops. [10:18] Bidou     Where did it fall? [10:20] Bidou     There it is. [10:25] Ibuki     Tch. [10:26] Kawanami     What is it? [10:29] Kawanami     Oh, it's you. [10:31] Kawanami     Welcome to Fukuhara High     School's Vanguard Club. [10:38] Shuka     What are you doing?! [10:40] Asaka     I'm onto you. [10:42] Asaka     Here to correct the distortion, huh? [10:46] Asaka     But unfortunately, until Kawanami and I     complete our Bow Wow Kingdom of Love, [10:52] Asaka     you'll have to cool your heels here. [10:59] Suiko     Wait! What's this about a "Bow Wow Kingdom"?! [11:04] Asaka     Just one more left... [11:06] Asaka     Him. [11:23] Suiko     What's this about a "Bow Wow Kingdom"?! [11:28] Asaka     Just one more left... [11:30] Asaka     Him. [11:31] Ibuki     What the heck is this?! [11:33] Kawanami     As you can plainly see, it's our uniform. [11:36] Kawanami     Our bow wow suit! [11:38] Ibuki     Bow wow suit?! [11:40] Kawanami     It may seem a little strange at first,     but once you get used to it, [11:44] Kawanami     you'll come to appreciate     the brilliant bow wow suit! [11:47] Kawanami     So let's begin our warm-up exercises! [11:51] Kawanami     Woof! [11:51] All     Woof! [11:52] Kawanami     Sit! [11:53] All     Yes, sir! [11:54] Kawanami     Paw! [11:54] All     Paw! [11:55] Ibuki     Wh-What is this?! My body's moving on its own! [11:57] Kawanami     More! [11:58] All     More! [11:59] Kawanami     Hind legs! [12:00] All     Woof!

[12:09] Kawanami     Apparently you've got the wrong idea. [12:12] Ibuki     Wrong idea?! [12:14] Kawanami     This isn't the "Van"-guard Club. [12:16] Kawanami     It's Fukuhara High School's... SIGN    Woofguard Club [12:18] All     ..."Woof"-guard Club! [12:20] Ibuki     But you guys called yourselves     the Vanguard Club just a bit ago! [12:23] Kawanami     You must've misheard us! SIGN    Woofguard Club [12:26] Kawanami     You pronounce Vanguard with a "va"! [12:28] Kawanami     Bite your tongue while you     say it to get the right "woof" feel! [12:30] Ibuki     Shut up! [12:32] Ibuki     Even your club name makes no sense! [12:34] Ibuki     What the heck is a "woofguard"?! [12:37] Kawanami     What phrases are associated with the word "dog"? [12:41] Kawanami     "The whimper of a whipped pup."     "The dog that bites the hand that feeds." [12:44] Kawanami     "The weaker the dog, the louder the bark." [12:46] Kawanami     All of them give dogs a bad name. [12:50] Kawanami     "Make puppy dog eyes,"     "retreat with your tail between your legs," [12:52] Kawanami     "You dirty dog!" [12:54] Kawanami     People use all of these     expressions pejoratively. [12:56] Kawanami     But they're wrong! [12:58] Kawanami     There is no animal on Earth     more clever than the dog! [13:01] Kawanami     Since the dawn of history, dogs have lived     with humans, sometimes serving as guides, [13:06] Kawanami     running across hill and dale and     courageously standing up to any enemy. [13:11] Kawanami     The dog is truly humankind's best friend,     and to look at it from another perspective, [13:15] Kawanami     it would be no overstatement     to say that without their support, [13:17] Kawanami     humans would have gone extinct long ago! [13:21] Kawanami     And yet, humans bind them with collars     and cuddle them just as they please! [13:27] Kawanami     That's no different than abuse! [13:31] Kawanami     Rise up, everyone, for the sake of dogs! [13:34] Kawanami     As dogs, we will make this planet     a true paradise for all doggiekind! [13:40] Kawanami     Stand up... [13:41] Members     ...Woofguard! [13:43] Ibuki     I still don't get it, but     there's one thing I do know! [13:46] Ibuki     You are the cause of     this time period's "distortion"! [13:50] Kawanami     What?! [13:51] Ibuki     I'm gonna crush your mad ambitions! [13:55] Ibuki     I challenge you to a game of Vanguard! [13:57] Kawanami     Fine! [13:58] Kawanami     However, if you lose, you'll have to     become a member of the Woofguard Club. [14:08] Kawanami     I lost... [14:11] Ibuki     Actually getting to fight someone.... [14:12] Ibuki     Such a wonderful feeling! [14:15] Ibuki     Thanks, Kawanami. [14:16] Bidou     Wait! [14:17] Bidou     No quitting while you're ahead! Woof! [14:20] Bidou     If you wanna leave here,     you'll have to beat us, too! Woof! [14:24] Ibuki     Challenge accepted! [14:25] Ibuki     Come at me, the whole pack of you! [14:28] Ibuki     Hang on... [14:29] Ibuki     These guys all want to play Vanguard. [14:32] Ibuki     That means they're not Jammers. [14:35] Ibuki     Dang it! Where is the real Jammer?! [14:38] Asaka     Here. [14:39] Asaka     I'm right here. [14:41] Kawanami     Asaka! Bae! [14:42] Asaka     Down, boy! [14:44] Asaka     A whipped pup like you     has no right to call me "bae". [14:49] Asaka     Henceforth, you will     address me as "Mistress Asaka." [14:53] Asaka     You! [14:55] Asaka     I made you the leader of the club,     yet you let me down, you useless cur! [15:00] Ibuki     Now it makes sense. [15:01] Ibuki     You're the "last boss." [15:04] Asaka     That's right! [15:05] Asaka     The Bow Wow Kingdom would have     tamed humans as domestic animals. [15:09] Asaka     We were one step away from our goal! [15:12] Asaka     People like you are nothing but nuisances! [15:22] Asaka     Jam-jam-jammer! [15:24] Ibuki     You... [15:30] Asaka     Jam-jam-jam-jammm... [15:32] Asaka     Jam-jam-jam-jammm... [15:34] Asaka     Silver Thorn Dragon Tamer, Luquier! [15:38] Asaka     Jam-jam-jam-jammm... [15:39] Ibuki     Is this who you really are?! [15:42] Ibuki     You're not embarrassed to be     dressed like that in public? [15:45] Asaka     Silence! [15:46] Asaka     Hounds, become my comrades! [15:48] Asaka     Jammer... [15:49] Asaka     This will be your graveyard, Kouji Ibuki. [15:53] Ibuki     Tch. Maybe I shouldn't have     made that last insult. [15:56] Asaka     Jam-jam-jam-jammm... [15:58] Suiko     I'm hungry! [16:00] Emi     Hey, where's Ibuki? [16:01] Shuka     Can't you call him? [16:03] Suiko     I don't want to. [16:04] Emi     Did you have a fight? [16:06] Shuka     You have to patch things up yourselves.     We can't get involved in a lovers' quarrel. [16:10] Suiko     We are not lovers! [16:12] Shuka     But isn't it meaningful that both of you     have traveled to this same time period? [16:18] Suiko     Meaningful? [16:19] Shuka     Yes. There are innumerable flows of time,     so it's much more likely [16:23] Shuka     for you to pass each other by     than to become entangled with each other. [16:26] Shuka     Maybe when you meet someone,     you should treasure that. [16:31] Suiko     Sorry, would you run that by me again? [16:33] Shuka     My point is-- [16:35] Shuka     Nice one, Emi! [16:37] Shuka     All right! [16:39] Suiko     Untie me, too! [16:41] Shuka     It's locked! [16:43] Emi     What should we do?! [16:45] Shuka     Isn't that...? [16:53] Emi     Thank you! [16:53] Shuka     Good job! [16:55] Suiko     I'll explain later! [16:58] Guard     What the heck is going on here?! [17:05] Asaka     Jam-jam-jam-jammm! [17:06] Asaka     It's Pale Moon's splendid showtime. [17:09] Asaka     May I ask that you enjoy the show? [17:11] Kawanami     Get him, Mistress Asaka! [17:13] Ibuki     Why didn't you transform?! [17:15] Kawanami     I am Mistress Asaka's loyal servant! [17:18] Kawanami     My form is human, but my mind is Fullbau! [17:22] Ibuki     Uh, that's not even a Pale Moon unit... [17:25] Asaka     Why don't we finish this? [17:31] Emi/Shuka     Not so fast! [17:41] Ibuki     Took you long enough! [17:43] Suiko     Sheesh. You can't do anything without me. [17:46] Ibuki     Well, excuse me! [17:48] Asaka     You two! [17:50] Shuka     Let's do it, Emi! [17:51] Emi     Okay! [18:04] Shuka/Emi     We're Blaster Pair, the magical girls     who will bring back that smile! [18:13] Emi/Shuka     Silver Thorn Dragon Tamer, Luquier! [18:16] Shuka     When there's a tenacious distortion     running rampant in the world... [18:19] Emi     ...it's our job to fix it! [18:22] Asaka     Oh, is this any time to put on airs? [18:25] Asaka     There are opponents in this world     that you're better off not defying. [18:29] Asaka     Time for your lesson! [18:32] Asaka     Dynamite Juggler! [18:35] Emi     Right back at you! [18:41] Asaka     Nitro Juggler! [18:44] Shuka     Sorry! [18:47] Asaka     Why, you... [18:48] Kawanami     Mistress Asaka! Leave this to me! [18:51] Ibuki     He's gonna be a human cannonball! [18:54] Suiko     That's not actually a weapon... [18:56] Asaka     Let's do it! [18:58] Asaka     Fire! [19:00] Shuka     Emi! [19:07] Kawanami     Ka-boom! [19:12] Suiko     Purple Trapezist?! [19:14] Ibuki     No, it's not! That's... [19:17] Ren     When a beautiful flower blooms     in a corner of the circus tent... [19:21] Ren     I will not allow anyone to trample it. [19:24] Asaka     Who are you?! [19:25] Ren     I am the knight who gallops     through the darkness. [19:28] Ren     Mask, the Dark! [19:30] Emi     Mask, the Dark? [19:32] Ibuki     You're Ren, right? [19:34] Ren     Aww, come on. Who calls a guy by name     when his face is hidden by a mask, Bukki? [19:41] Ibuki     Why, you... [19:43] Ren     The curtain hasn't come down yet on this show. [19:46] Ren     Show me what you've got, magical girl. [19:49] Emi     Just watch me, Mask, the Dark.

[20:54] Ren     If you would remove his distortion as well... [20:57] Ren     Stay in the fight... [20:58] Ren     ...magical girls! [21:01] Shuka/Emi     We will! [21:13] Ibuki     It wasn't this distortion, either. [21:15] Suiko     I wonder when we'll be able to     return to our own world. [21:21] Ren     Stay in the fight... [21:23] Ren     ...magical girls! [21:27] Shuka     Emi! [21:29] Shuka     You were thinking about him, weren't you? [21:32] Shuka     "Dark"! [21:33] Emi     N-No, I wasn't!
