[00:00] Aichi
    Now, imagine it.
[00:03] Aichi
    This is Cray, a planet very similar to Earth.
[00:06] Aichi
    We've just arrived there as astral bodies.
[00:17] Naitou
    I can see it!
[00:19] Naitou
    What a global image!
[00:22] Suwabe
    You're a visionary, President!
[00:24] Maki
    Please open your eyes.
[00:25] Maki
    You can't fight with them shut.
[00:28] Naitou
    Oh, good point.
[00:30] Kyou
    He often says that.
[00:33] Kyou
    That expression.
[00:34] Kamui
    Which expression?
[00:36] Kyou
    "Imagine it" or whatever.
[00:38] Kamui
    Yeah, to enjoy Vanguard,
     imagination is what you need the most.
[00:44] Kyou
    Really?
[00:45] Kamui
    Of course!
[00:46] Kamui
    I'm imagining it myself!
[00:49] Kamui
    Riding my Vanguard and
    fighting on the planet Cray!
[00:56] Kamui
    You should try to imagine it too!
[01:05] Kyou
    Yeah, right.
[01:07] Kamui
    Hey! Take this seriously!
[01:11] Kyou
    I can't imagine any of that stuff.
[01:15] Shin
    It's about that time.

    The Road to the Vanguard Koshien!
SIGN    Suiko Rekka Kourin
[01:24] Suiko
    In this program, we introduce high schools that
    are aiming to participate in the Vanguard Koshien.
[01:30] Naoki
    It's started.
[01:31] Shingo
    I believe today it's...
SIGN    Vanguard Club
[01:33] Rekka
    Today we'll love-love introduce
    Hitsue High's Vanguard Club!
[01:38] Aichi
    Kai, Miwa, and Morikawa go to Hitsue.
[01:43] Misaki
    This show is live, right?
[01:45] Misaki
    I just hope they don't do anything goofy.
SIGN    Vanguard Club
[01:49] Rekka
    Let's go in!
[01:52] Morikawa
    I'm the captain here!
[01:54] Miwa
    I said, just let me be captain for today!
[01:56] Morikawa
    I'm gonna be the one who gets to talk to Kourin!
[01:58] Miwa
    I wanna talk to Suiko!
SIGN    Please stand by.
[02:06] Naoki
    They embarrassed themselves
    on a nationwide broadcast.
[02:09] Misaki
    They're probably banned from the show now.
SIGN    Morikawa Hitsue High Captain
[02:13] Kourin
    All right, let's get back on track.
[02:15] Kourin
    I'd like to interview the
    club captain, Morikawa.
[02:19] Kourin
    We hear a very strong fighter
    has joined your club.
[02:22] Miwa
    Me! Me! Me! Me!
[02:25] Kourin
    But it seems he isn't here today.
[02:27] Miwa
    Oof...
[02:27] Morikawa
    Yeah, he just officially signed up,
[02:31] Morikawa
    but never actually comes to the club!
[02:33] Morikawa
    Kai!
[02:34] Morikawa
    We had you become a member so we could win!
[02:37] Morikawa
    So quit brushing us off!
[02:39] Morikawa
    You've gotta be watching this, right?!
    You should be here, practicing with us!
[02:39] Shin
    I see. So he hasn't been going to the club...
[02:43] Shin
    And I haven't seen him here lately, either.
[02:47] Aichi
    Kai...
SIGN    The Road to the Vanguard Koshien
[02:55] ULTRARARE
    Thank you for watching this week's episode!
[02:58] Suiko
    Next time we'll feature a
    team that's likely to win!
[03:01] Rekka
    Gouki Daimonji!
[03:04] Kamui
    It's Gouki!
[03:05] Kourin
    And Kenji Mitsusada!
[03:09] Suiko
    These two, who dominated the Asia Circuit,
     belong to Harumi High's Vanguard Club!
[03:15] Kamui
    I see! So Gouki's gonna be on TV!
[03:18] Shin
    Top idols, ULTRARARE, visiting their school...
[03:21] Shin
    Don't you just envy them?
[03:23] Kyou
    Really?
SIGN    The Road to Vanguard Koshien
[03:25] ULTRARARE
    See you then!
[03:27] Kyou
    I don't know why, but this girl ticks me off!
[03:30] Kyou
    Seriously!

SIGN    Vanguard Koshien Victory
[05:15] Kawanami
    I can smell a heal trigger, woof!
[05:19] Kawanami
    There! Oh no, it's a draw trigger!
[05:26] Kawanami
    Thank you for the game...
[05:30] Asaka
    What are you doing, Kishida?!
[05:32] Asaka
    For the Vanguard Koshien,
    we'll be fighting as a team of five!
[05:35] Asaka
    Is this all you've got?!
[05:39] Asaka
    And it's not just Kishida!
[05:41] Asaka
    We've got other members
    who lack enthusiasm, too!
[05:43] Asaka
    Pull yourselves together!
[05:45] Ren
    The members aren't the only ones
    who've lost their motivation.
[05:57] Ibuki
    Are you sure you have time to meet with me
    while neglecting your club members...
[06:01] Ibuki
    ...Coach Tetsu Shinjou?
[06:05] Tetsu
    I'm sure you already know this, Kouji Ibuki.
[06:09] Tetsu
    Ever since you "deleted"
    me and won that last fight,
[06:14] Tetsu
    I've lost all my enthusiasm for Vanguard.
[06:19] Tetsu
    I can't coach anymore.
[06:22] Tetsu
    And it's not just me.
[06:24] Tetsu
    We've got a lot of members who lost
    their drive after you deleted them.
[06:28] Ibuki
    Like I've told you over and over again,
    even I don't know why that happened.
[06:35] Tetsu
    But because of that,
[06:36] Tetsu
    I'm having trouble putting together
    a team for the Vanguard Koshien.
[06:40] Tetsu
    You might as well join us.
[06:42] Ibuki
    Even at the risk of making more people like you?
[06:53] Ibuki
    It's true that I've
     hated Vanguard with a passion.
[06:57] Ibuki
    If I wanted to, I could go and ruin
    the whole Vanguard Koshien tournament.
[07:03] Ibuki
    However...
[07:06] Ibuki
    ...for some reason, I've started feeling
    that I don't mind if Vanguard exists.
[07:14] Ibuki
    Have I also...
[07:15] Ibuki
    ...lost something myself?
[07:19] Kamui
    Hey!
[07:22] Kamui
    Kyou!
[07:23] Kamui
    It's time for our daily Vanguard fun!
[07:26] Kyou
    Why'd you have to come to my school?!
[07:29] Kyou
    Sheesh!
[07:31] Kamui
    Whatever, let's just go!
[07:34] Tetsu
    I could've sworn that Kyou Yahagi
    was also deleted by Ibuki...
[07:43] Emi
    See you later!
[07:49] Aichi
    Emi went out?
[07:51] Mom
    She's shopping with her friend.
[07:53] Mom
    Hurry up and finish your breakfast, Aichi.
[07:56] Aichi
    Okay!
[07:59] Ushimaru
    Rekka!
[08:01] Ushimaru
    Rekka!
[08:03] Ushimaru
    Where are you?!
[08:07] Kourin
    Rekka isn't here?
[08:09] Ushimaru
    I bet she went off to have
    another Vanguard fight!
[08:12] Ushimaru
    Even after I pleaded with her
    not to go out without permission!
[08:16] Suiko
    Honestly...
[08:18] Suiko
    I don't know what she sees in Vanguard.
[08:21] Kourin
    You're not sounding like an official supporter.
[08:25] Suiko
    I can't help it.
[08:27] Suiko
    I've just lost interest for some reason.
[08:30] Emi
    That's so cute!
[08:32] Mai
    Emi, isn't that Rekka from ULTRARARE?
[08:37] Fan A
    Rekka!
[08:38] Fan B
    I want your autograph!
[08:39] Fan C
    Shake my hand!
[08:40] Rekka
    Stop following me!
[08:43] Emi
    In here!
[08:48] Fan
    This way?
[08:48] Fan
    Let's go!
[08:49] Emi
    You're safe now.
[08:53] Rekka
    I wish people would know to leave
    me alone on one of my few days off.
[08:57] Rekka
    Thanks.
[09:02] Rekka
    What? Have we met before?
[09:05] Emi
    I don't think we have, but...
[09:09] Rekka
    Right, of course not!
[09:29] Rekka
    Ahh, that was fun!
[09:31] Rekka
    Now if I could just play Vanguard,
    it would be a perfect day.
[09:34] Rekka
    Do you know of any good shops?
[09:40] Emi
    Actually, I do!
[09:44] Emi
    There's this place. I've been here before.
[09:49] Emi
    Hello!
[09:50] Gouki
    Next!
[09:52] Member A
    That's me!
[09:53] Gouki
    We don't have much time left
    before the Vanguard Koshien.
[09:57] Gouki
    You've gotta get fired up!
[10:00] Rekka
    That's Gouki Daimonji from Harumi High,
    the school we're covering next week!
[10:04] Rekka
    I shouldn't have come here.
[10:07] Emi
    Excuse me.
[10:09] Rekka
    We shouldn't disturb them.
[10:10] Rekka
    Let's play over there!
[10:12] Rekka
    Okay?!
[10:13] Emi
    Sure, okay!
[10:18] Kyou
    It's my day off,
[10:20] Kyou
    but here I am, going out with this guy...
[10:24] Kyou
    Why do you care so much about me?
[10:28] Kamui
    Why do I?
[10:29] Kyou
    That's what I asked you!
[10:32] Kamui
    Well, why not?
[10:34] Kamui
    For a change of pace,
    let's go to a different shop.
[10:38] Kyou
    Sheesh...
[10:42] Kamui
    'Sup!
[10:44] Gouki
    Oh, Kamui!
[10:46] Kamui
    Gouki!
[10:47] Emi
    Kamui!
[10:50] Emi
    Long time no see!
[10:52] Kamui
    M-Miss Emi!
[10:54] Kyou
    I never imagined I'd see her here.
[10:58] Kamui
    H-Hey, Kyou!
[11:00] Kyou
    Whenever I see you,
    I get annoyed for some reason.
[11:05] Kyou
    I'd like to send you flying,
    but I can't get violent.
[11:09] Kyou
    So instead...
[11:14] Kyou
    Fight me,
[11:16] Kyou
    Rekka Tatsunagi!
[11:31] Gouki
    Did he say, "Rekka Tatsunagi"?!
[11:33] Member A
    She's so cute!
[11:34] Member B
    What's a genuine idol doing here?!
[11:37] Gouki
    Pipe down!
[11:40] Gouki
    Isn't the show on us not till next week?
[11:43] Rekka
    I'm here as a private citizen.
[11:46] Kamui
    Kyou, what are you...
[11:47] Kyou
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[11:49] Kyou
    It's not like I'm suddenly
    interested in Vanguard.
[11:53] Kyou
    It's just...
[11:54] Kyou
    ...I have to settle a score
    with her, through Vanguard.
[11:58] Kyou
    That's what my gut tells me!
[12:04] Kawanami
    This scent...
[12:13] Rekka
    Have we fought before?
[12:16] Kyou
    Of course not.
[12:19] Kawanami
    That's...
[12:21] Kawanami
    ...Kyou Yahagi!
[12:24] Tetsu
    That's enough for today.
[12:26] Tetsu
    Tomorrow is free practice.
[12:27] Tetsu
    You can do it here, or you can fight
    an unknown opponent at a shop.
[12:33] Tetsu
    I just have one request.
[12:37] Tetsu
    If you happen to see Kyou Yahagi
    from the middle school fighting,
[12:41] Tetsu
    I want you to contact me immediately.
[12:43] Tetsu
    I'm counting on you.
[12:46] Kawanami
    I'll contact him right a-woof!
[12:54] Rekka
    White Lily Musketeer, Cecilia...
[12:57] Rekka
    Love-love ride!
[13:05] Kyou
    No trigger...
[13:08] Kyou
    Darn it!
[13:09] Member A
    Rekka won!
[13:11] Member B
    She's not an official supporter for nothing!
[13:13] Member C
    More like, her opponent was too weak!
[13:19] Tetsu
    Kyou...
[13:21] Kyou
    Tetsu...
[13:22] Kyou
    You were watching?
[13:24] Tetsu
    Well done!
[13:26] Tetsu
    I'm impressed you fought to the end!
[13:29] Gouki
    What do you mean?
[13:32] Tetsu
    This boy, Kyou Yahagi, was "deleted"
    by a fighter named Ibuki,
[13:37] Tetsu
    and ever since then,
    he's lost all interest in Vanguard.
[13:41] Gouki
    All interest in Vanguard?!
[13:44] Rekka
    That's just like Suiko!
[13:47] Tetsu
    Some people who've been deleted
[13:49] Tetsu
    have even had Vanguard's very
    existence erased from their memory.
[13:53] Tetsu
    But Kyou fought to the end.
[13:57] Tetsu
    I know just how tough that is.
[14:01] Tetsu
    Because I, too...
[14:03] Tetsu
    ...was deleted.
[14:06] Tetsu
    Kyou and I aren't the only
    ones who have been deleted.
[14:09] Tetsu
    Several members of our club
    at Fukuhara were as well.
[14:12] Tetsu
    As well as...
[14:14] Tetsu
    ...Toshiki Kai!
[14:16] Gouki
    Toshiki Kai?!
[14:22] Kenji
    I haven't seen you since the
    shop tournament, Toshiki Kai.
[14:27] Kai
    Aren't you...
[14:29] Kenji
    Kenji Mitsusada. Do you remember me?
[14:32] Kai
    I guess.
[14:33] Kenji
    I hear your club is aiming
    to win at the Vanguard Koshien?
[14:37] Kenji
    I saw your captain shouting about it on TV.
[14:42] Kenji
    Of course my school, Harumi High,
    is also going for the win.
[14:45] Kenji
    Even now, we're doing
    intensive training at Voyage.
[14:48] Kenji
    Why don't you come with me?
[14:51] Kai
    No thanks.
[14:53] Kenji
    Please!
[14:55] Kenji
    The truth is...
[14:57] Kenji
    ...I took the wrong train and got lost!
[15:06] Kamui
    You did great, Kyou!
[15:08] Kamui
    You fought someone besides me!
[15:12] Kyou
    Not yet...
[15:14] Customer A
    Rekka, fight me next!
[15:16] Customer B
    No, me!
[15:17] Customer C
    Fight me, just once!
[15:21] Kyou
    Fight me once more, Rekka Tatsunagi!
[15:26] Kamui
    I-I'd like you to fight him again, too!
[15:28] Tetsu
    Fight Kyou again!
[15:31] Emi
    Rekka...
[15:33] Rekka
    I'm here on my own time.
[15:36] Rekka
    So I'm going to fight whomever I want.
[15:42] Rekka
    I'll fight you until you're satisfied!
[15:45] Kamui
    Yeah!
[15:46] Tetsu
    I appreciate it.
[15:48] Rekka
    Actually...
[15:52] Rekka
    ...there's something bothering me, too.
[15:55] Kai
    It should be around here.
[15:57] Nagisa
    It's Koutei!
[16:01] Kenji
    Hi, Nagisa and...
[16:04] Kenji
    ...who, again?
[16:05] Nagisa
    You can call them the Three Stooges.
[16:07] Tsuneto
    We're not the Three Stooges! I'm Tsuneto!
[16:09] Carl
    I'm Carl!
[16:10] Kei
    Kei!
[16:13] Kenji
    Oh, right! It just slipped my mind.
[16:15] Nagisa
    What are you doing here?
[16:18] Nagisa
    My brother's been at Voyage for a while now.
[16:20] Kenji
    Well...
[16:22] Kei
    Another slip-up?
[16:24] Carl
    Wait, are you lost?
[16:27] Nagisa
    Atten-shun!
[16:28] Nagisa
    Face...
[16:29] Nagisa
    ...right!
[16:33] Kenji
    Voyage is right there!
[16:35] Nagisa
    Come on, let's go! We'll escort you!
[16:38] Kenji
    You don't have to...
[16:39] Kei
    Here we go...
[16:45] Kai
    It's him...
[16:47] Kyou
    No trigger!
[16:51] Gouki
    He understands the rules,
[16:53] Gouki
    and the progression of the fight
    doesn't seem to be a problem, but...
[16:57] Rekka
    That makes ten losses in a row now.
    Can you keep going?
[17:03] Tetsu
    Has he lost heart?
[17:05] Kamui
    Of course he'll keep going!
[17:09] Kamui
    I'm right behind you, Kyou!
[17:13] Ren
    Boy...
[17:15] Ren
    Have you ever seen your units in profile?
[17:20] Kyou
    They aren't drawn in profile...
[17:23] Ren
    But they fight alongside you
    on the planet Cray, and protect you.
[17:28] Ren
    Seeing them in profile is only natural.
[17:32] Ren
    You just have to imagine it, boy.
[17:35] Ren
    Then maybe one day, you'll be able
    to hear the voices of the cards too.
[17:42] Kyou
    Imagine it...
[17:44] Rekka
    Can we get started?
[17:46] Kyou
    Y-Yeah!
[17:48] Kyou/Rekka
    Stand up, Vanguard!
[17:52] Tetsu
    Like you, Kyou was deleted,
    but he's recovered this much.
[17:57] Tetsu
    That boy, Kamui Katsuragi,
    has played a major part in his recovery.
[18:03] Tetsu
    However...
[18:05] Tetsu
    ...the effects of Delete are still there.
[18:08] Tetsu
    Something crucial is missing.
[18:12] Tetsu
    If we could figure out what that is,
    both of us might be able to get our mojo back.
[18:24] Kyou
    Stand and draw!
[18:25] Aichi
    Now, imagine it.
[18:29] Kyou
    Imagine it...
[18:35] Kamui
    I'm imagining it myself!
[18:38] Kyou
    I must've been able to imagine it before, too!
[18:44] Kyou
    This layout...
[18:46] Kyou
    I've seen it before!
[18:50] Kyou
    I ride Dueling Dragon, ZANBAKU!
[18:56] Kyou
    I'll blow you away!
[18:58] Rekka
    White Lily Musketeer, Cecilia...
[19:01] Rekka
    Love-love ride!
[19:07] Kyou
    Wh-What was that?!
[19:09] Rekka
    We've fought each other before today?!
[19:13] Ren
    Imagine it, boy.
[19:18] Kyou
    Imagine it...
[19:22] Kyou
    I have to imagine it!
[19:30] Kyou
    That's right!
[19:31] Kyou
    I'm Dueling Dragon, ZANBAKU! And...
[19:34] Kyou
    ...I can see them in profile!
[19:38] Kyou
    Here I go! I ride!
[19:49] Kyou
    Dueling Dragon King, ZANGEKI!
[19:53] Kyou
    Twin Swordsman, MUSASHI! You're up!
[19:55] Musashi
    As you wish!
[19:56] Kyou
    Move up, Million Rat!
[19:59] Rekka
    W-Wait!
[20:00] Kyou
    This time for sure,
[20:02] Kyou
    I'm gonna blow you away!
[20:13] Rekka
    I lost...
[20:18] Kyou
    I... did... it...
[20:22] Kamui
    Kyou! Are you okay?!
[20:26] Kyou
    I totally forgot how much fun Vanguard is!
[20:32] Kamui
    Kyou's back!
[20:34] Tsuneto
    Isn't it obvious that Vanguard is fun?
[20:38] Carl
    Maybe he got hit on the head?
[20:40] Kei
    Yeah...
[20:41] Kyou
    Shut up, you third-rate dregs!
[20:43] Kamui
    Even his sharp tongue is back!
[20:46] The Three
    Third-rate dregs?!
[20:49] Tsuneto
    Wh-What does "third-rate dregs" mean?
[20:53] Kei
    Short for "three dragons"?
[20:55] Tsuneto
    That's way better than "Three Stooges"!
[20:57] Tsuneto
    "Three Dragons"! I like the sound of it!
[20:59] Carl
    Why don't we make it cooler, though?
    With "trio," or "triple"...
[21:03] Kei
    "Trinity"!
[21:04] Tsuneto
    That's it!
[21:05] The Three
    We are...
[21:07] The Three
    ...Team Trinity Dragon!
[21:11] Kamui
    Thank goodness they misunderstood...
[21:15] Tetsu
    I don't know the reason why,
[21:17] Tetsu
    but for Kyou, beating Rekka was necessary
    for him to break free of Delete's influence.
[21:25] Tetsu
    Which means...
[21:26] Tetsu
    ...if the other people who were
    deleted could also find their triggers...
[21:32] Mamoru
    You're Toshiki Kai, aren't you?
[21:35] Mamoru
    The one they call the "Solitary Fighter."
[21:38] Kai
    Who are you?
[21:40] Kenji
    Mamoru Anjou.
[21:42] Kenji
    He's a member of Harumi High's Vanguard Club.
[21:45] Kenji
    Like you, he uses a Kagero deck.
[21:48] Mamoru
    I've always wanted to fight you,
    the strongest Kagero user around.
[21:54] Mamoru
    It seems like you've fallen
    on hard times, though.
[21:59] Mamoru
    Still, maybe meeting you
    here is some kind of fate.
[22:04] Mamoru
    Including the fact that
    I brought this card here.
[22:08] Kai
    Card?
[22:10] Mamoru
    Dragonic Overlord...
[22:12] Mamoru
    THE END!
[23:46] Narrator
    The 30-second card intro segment!
[23:48] Narrator
    Today's featured card is Kyou's ace in
    the hole, Dueling Dragon King, ZANGEKI!
SIGN    Dueling Dragon King, ZANGEKI
[23:53] Narrator
    With a Left Arrester in the
    front row, this unit gains power,
[23:55] Narrator
    and with a Right Arrester,
    it gains an extra critical.
[23:58] Narrator
    Also, if there's a card in the Soul
    with "Dueling Dragon" in its name,
[24:01] Narrator
    your opponent can only guard against
    ZANGEKI with grade 0 units from their hand.
[24:05] Narrator
    And Imaginary Gift, Accel,
    increases its number of attacks,
[24:08] Narrator
    allowing for consecutive attacks!
[24:10] Narrator
    With this card,
    you too can "Ride The Vanguard"!
SIGN    Ride The Vanguard!
[24:15] Gouki
    Of course Harumi High is aimin'
     to win at the Vanguard Koshien!
[24:20] Gouki
    Let's sing our school song, loud and proud!
[24:22] Gouki
    Mitsusada, you do lead vocals!
[24:24] Kenji
    Got it! Okay, here I go!
[24:26] Kenji
    Who we are is Team Asteroid!
[24:29] Gouki
    That's not it!
[24:30] Kenji
    Sorry, it just slipped out!
[24:32] Mamoru
    Gouki, sorry, but I don't think
    we can sing our school song.
[24:35] Gouki
    Are you saying we can't win, Mamoru?!
[24:38] Mamoru
    No, but Harumi High doesn't have a school song!
SIGN    Dimension 6
     The Beginning of The End
[24:41] Gouki
    Wh-What?! Let's make them write one, right away!
[24:43] Kenji
    "Them" who?!
