**[01:33] ---**
H-H-H-Hello!
**[01:35] ---**
I am Naviko, who believes that aliens exist,
**[01:38] ---**
but is less certain about household spirits.
**[01:42] ---**
In the last episode...
**[01:44] ---**
Rei was eliminated in the first round
of the Dragonia Battle Tournament,
**[01:49] ---**
but returned as a commentator. Good for him!
**[01:54] ---**
And then, the battles began in the second round!
**[01:56] ---**
Hiro splendidly crushed Chiffon!
**[02:00] ---**
Now, keep an eye on what
happens in this episode!
***SIGN*** Papi? Papi Papi!
**[02:05] ---**
Papi? Papi Papi!
***SIGN*** All right! Go for it!
**[02:21] ---**
Vasuki, beat him up good!
**[02:24] ---**
Soul Dragon! Don't back down!
**[02:26] ---**
The Dragon Leg Stage!
**[02:28] ---**
On this molten-hot stage over a sea of magma,
**[02:30] ---**
an equally hot battle is developing!
**[02:36] ---**
Send them a rock shower as a get-well present!
**[02:45] ---**
Beat it back!
**[02:58] ---**
Rubica has taken damage!
**[03:01] ---**
Hm, not bad.
**[03:03] ---**
You've grown stronger than before.
**[03:07] ---**
Really? Thanks!
**[03:09] ---**
I didn't particularly mean that as a compliment.
**[03:12] ---**
I'm here to pay you back for
destroying the Green Pepper Gang!
**[03:18] ---**
Huh? Did I lend you money?
**[03:21] ---**
I don't remember doing that...
**[03:24] ---**
It's just a figure of speech!
**[03:25] ---**
Are you dense?!
**[03:27] ---**
No, I'm Shin!
**[03:29] ---**
Grr!
**[03:31] ---**
They don't seem to be having
the same conversation.
**[03:33] ---**
What do you think, Commentator Rei?
**[03:36] ---**
There's no need to comment.
**[03:40] ---**
Time to make my move!
**[03:43] ---**
Dante!
**[03:44] ---**
Gattle Peacock!
**[03:49] ---**
Sure! I'll show what I can do!
**[03:51] ---**
And now, Rubica has unleashed two monsters!
**[03:55] ---**
Will Shin summon another monster, too?!
**[03:58] ---**
Oh!
**[03:59] ---**
*I'm fine with just Soul Dragon!*
**[04:02] ---**
Oh, my! He's not summoning?!
**[04:04] ---**
He'll fight two against one?
**[04:06] ---**
That's insane!
**[04:07] ---**
No, his growth as a Battler is remarkable.
**[04:11] ---**
He has determined that he can
win with a single monster.
**[04:14] ---**
Oh, so that's how it seems to you?
**[04:16] ---**
Brilliant as always!
**[04:18] ---**
Aside from when you lost in the first round...
**[04:20] ---**
Be silent, doguu!
**[04:22] ---**
Wha?! I'm not some clay doguu figure!
**[04:24] ---**
I'm a noble terracotta haniwa!
**[04:27] ---**
So there!
**[04:28] ---**
Besides, I can't do my on-the-spot
reporting if I'm silent!
**[04:31] ---**
So there!
**[04:32] ---**
Finish him off!
**[04:36] ---**
What's going on?! Shin isn't making a move?!
**[04:39] ---**
*Not yet...*
**[04:40] ---**
*Not just yet!*
**[04:41] ---**
This is bad! This is really bad!
**[04:44] ---**
Just hold still.
**[04:46] ---**
Hey, hey!
**[04:47] ---**
Don't grab my head so casually!
**[04:50] ---**
Too petrified to move?
**[04:55] ---**
Now, Soul Dragon!
**[05:05] ---**
Whoa!
**[05:07] ---**
With that rotational force, even a small impact
**[05:10] ---**
will have its damage multiplied several times over!
**[05:14] ---**
Oh, no!
**[05:15] ---**
Soul Dragon!
**[05:23] ---**
Shin is the winner!
**[05:26] ---**
Hey! What are you doing?!
**[05:29] ---**
I never asked for your help!
**[05:32] ---**
Aren't we enemies?!
**[05:33] ---**
But it's natural to want to help out
even without being asked!
**[05:37] ---**
There are no enemies or friends
when someone's in trouble!
**[05:44] ---**
Wh-What's with you?
**[05:47] ---**
Shin, honey, on top of being sweet,
you've gotten much too strong.
**[05:51] ---**
Strong?
**[05:53] ---**
I guess I am.
**[05:54] ---**
What happened to me, anyway?
**[05:56] ---**
No, what happened to *me*,
to make my heart pound so much?
**[06:03] ---**
Anyway, I win!
**[06:05] ---**
And I lose!
**[06:07] ---**
On the Dragon Tail Stage, the winner is Gelmen!
**[06:11] ---**
On the Dragon Wing Stage, the winner
is the mysterious Masked Battler!
**[06:19] ---**
No treasures in there, either!
**[06:21] ---**
Jeez, this castle is way too big!
**[06:23] ---**
Where could they be?!
**[06:27] ---**
Well, I won't get discouraged!
**[06:30] ---**
I am Yuna, cute little Yuna!
**[06:33] ---**
I'll make my dreams come true, mm-hmm-hmm!
**[06:37] ---**
You did it, Shin!
**[06:40] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:41] ---**
You won too, right?
**[06:42] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:44] ---**
All right!
**[06:44] ---**
I wouldn't celebrate yet!
**[06:47] ---**
You only won by dumb luck.
**[06:51] ---**
What was that?!
**[06:52] ---**
It wasn't just luck!
**[06:54] ---**
If it wasn't luck,
**[06:56] ---**
then your opponents were just too careless.
**[07:02] ---**
Battlers in block 2, please enter your stages!
**[07:08] ---**
Boy, what a jerk!
**[07:11] ---**
I believe his name is Marmott.
**[07:15] ---**
Huh? Rei, why are you here?
**[07:18] ---**
Any first-class commentator
**[07:20] ---**
must also check on the Battlers in the waiting room.
**[07:24] ---**
Hey, you!
**[07:25] ---**
What's that thing?
**[07:27] ---**
You're not allowed to bring pets in here!
**[07:29] ---**
Pets?
**[07:33] ---**
I'll take custody of it until your battle is over.
**[07:37] ---**
W-Wait, please!
**[07:38] ---**
This isn't a pet, it's a battle monster!
**[07:43] ---**
Nothing that looks this weak
could ever be fit for battle!
**[07:48] ---**
P-Papi, you're getting a little vicious...
**[07:51] ---**
Well, it's not like anyone
would believe that a monster
**[07:54] ---**
is always outside its card
and clinging to a Battler.
**[07:58] ---**
You can come back for it when it's over!
**[08:00] ---**
Otherwise, you'll be disqualified
for breaking tournament rules!
**[08:04] ---**
W-Wait a minute!
**[08:07] ---**
Very well.
**[08:08] ---**
I will take charge of Papi.
**[08:10] ---**
It's better than being disqualified, right?
**[08:13] ---**
Papi...
**[08:17] ---**
And so, you'll be keeping Papi for a while.
**[08:20] ---**
Apparently, pets are prohibited in
the commentators' box, as well.
**[08:25] ---**
No choice, I guess...
**[08:27] ---**
Poor thing.
**[08:29] ---**
Where did the children go?
**[08:30] ---**
Oh...
**[08:31] ---**
Tarte and Torte?
**[08:33] ---**
To the toilet.
**[08:35] ---**
Hey, kids, you're not allowed in here!
**[08:38] ---**
What? This isn't the toilet?
**[08:40] ---**
Brother, I can't hold it!
**[08:44] ---**
You hear that? She can't hold it!
**[08:46] ---**
The toilet is that way!
**[08:47] ---**
Turn at the second corner.
**[08:49] ---**
Torte, let's dash!
**[08:50] ---**
Yes, dash!
**[09:02] ---**
Oh, if it isn't Father Arcally!
**[09:06] ---**
Please, as you were.
**[09:08] ---**
Do not halt your work.
**[09:10] ---**
You have done well.
**[09:12] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[09:13] ---**
Many relics have been discovered during
the construction of this new stadium,
**[09:19] ---**
but none as splendid as this one.
**[09:25] ---**
Father Arcally...
**[09:26] ---**
Now, what of the jar you mentioned?
**[09:29] ---**
Yes, well, it's quite mysterious.
**[09:32] ---**
Oh?
**[09:34] ---**
It started blinking at a higher frequency today.
**[09:39] ---**
Today, you say?
**[09:41] ---**
That *is* quite mysterious.
**[09:43] ---**
These four are the winners from block 2!
**[09:46] ---**
They will now be matched against the four
winners from block 1 to begin the third round!
**[09:52] ---**
First, on the Dragon Leg Stage,
**[09:54] ---**
Hiro vs. the Masked Battler!
**[09:57] ---**
And on the Dragon Wing Stage,
**[10:00] ---**
Gelmen vs. Shin!
**[10:02] ---**
We will now begin these two matches!
**[10:08] ---**
*This guy's incredibly strong.*
**[10:11] ---**
Well then, start the battle!
**[10:22] ---**
Thick forest?
**[10:23] ---**
Then I'm sure to win!
**[10:25] ---**
Let's go!

What?!

Soul Dragon!
**[11:12] ---**
I have never lost a fight in a forest.
**[11:16] ---**
H-He's strong!
**[11:17] ---**
Shin immediately finds himself in a bind!
**[11:20] ---**
Will he find a way to subdue
Gelmen, his powerful opponent?!
**[11:24] ---**
Do your best, Shin!
**[11:25] ---**
Next episode: "No Way?! Shin Evolves?!"
**[11:27] ---**
Await it with guts!
