[00:01] ---
    My name is Abygale.
[00:02] ---
    This Black Hole...
[00:04] ---
    Can also be used like this.
[00:06] ---
    Huh?
[00:07] ---
    What's that?
[00:08] ---
    What's going on?
[00:09] ---
    So excited! Just as Bal hoped!
    The pizzas are sliced perfectly, bal!
[00:13] ---
    It's not a pizza cutter!
[00:15] ---
    Good morning, everyone!
[00:17] ---
    Today, we're coming to you live
    from the celebratory party for
[00:21] ---
    the WBC Cup Cho-Tokyo
    representatives!
[00:23] ---
    Your hosts are me,
    Paruko Nanana,
[00:26] ---
    and my Buddy,
    Martian UFO Takosuke!
[00:28] ---
    Takochu!
[00:30] ---
    -And!
    -Huh?
[00:31] ---
    Sleeping under Aibo Academy
    for countless years!
[00:34] ---
    Everyone's favorite, Ozon B
    will be your host too, B!
[00:37] ---
    Meow!
[00:38] ---
    What? Nobody told me!
[02:11] ---
    Currently we're headed
    towards the island where
[02:14] ---
    the WBC Cup Japan Representative
    Invitational Tournament will be held.
[02:18] ---
    Originally, we were scheduled
    to head to the island on
[02:22] ---
    a chartered flight provided
    by the WBC Cup, but...
[02:24] ---
    Ouch!
[02:26] ---
    Animals have always
    been attracted to me!
[02:28] ---
    Ouch!
[02:29] ---
    Uh...
[02:31] ---
    This time, Cetacea Boarding Academy
    has generously allowed us
[02:35] ---
    on board for an elegant
    cruising experience!
[02:38] ---
    Cetacea Boarding Academy,
    thank you so much!
[02:44] ---
    No need to be reserved!
[02:45] ---
    It's our tradition to spare no
    expense when entertaining guests!
[02:48] ---
    That's what I'd expect from
    the Chief of the Ocean, Dai Kaido!
[02:51] ---
    You're generous to a fault!
[02:53] ---
    Generous, bal!
[02:56] ---
    It would have been nice to have
    the other representative fighter,
[02:59] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu, here as well...
[03:02] ---
    Don't be ridiculous.
[03:04] ---
    I have no intention of
    playing nice with others.
[03:07] ---
    That was his attitude,
    as he refused the invitation.
[03:10] ---
    So Gaito is the only one
    on the chartered flight.
[03:15] ---
    Gaito...
[03:23] ---
    Full steam ahead!
    To the Japan Representative Invitational Island!
[03:29] ---
    Whoa...
[03:31] ---
    Looks tasty, bal!
[03:32] ---
    It's a festival, a festival!
[03:34] ---
    A festival to celebrate the eve
    of the Japan Tournament!
[03:38] ---
    Hooray! Hooray!
    Celebration! Hooray!
[03:41] ---
    This is great!
[03:43] ---
    So tasty!
[03:50] ---
    Well, how is it?
    Do you like it?
[03:53] ---
    Yeah! Thanks.
[03:55] ---
    I'm in your debt.
[03:56] ---
    Thanks for hosting me and Jack, too.
[03:59] ---
    I told you, no need to be reserved!
    We've fought together, after all.
[04:02] ---
    I wonder what the Japan
    Tournament island will be like?
[04:07] ---
    I've heard that it's a resort area
    owned by the WBC Cup sponsor.
[04:11] ---
    They're making it available
    especially for this tournament.
[04:15] ---
    And strong fighters from all over
    Japan are going to gather there!
[04:19] ---
    No matter how strong they are,
[04:21] ---
    Bal will defeat them as
    an Impact Monster, bal!
[04:24] ---
    Speaking of Impact Monsters...
    I just don't get it.
[04:28] ---
    Where did you get them, anyways?
[04:31] ---
    You really want to know?
[04:32] ---
    Yeah!
[04:32] ---
    Well, if you insist...
[04:34] ---
    I'll have to start with how Bal and I met.
[04:39] ---
    Bal?
[04:41] ---
    Please, I'm begging you!
[04:43] ---
    Come on! Come on! Come on!
[04:46] ---
    Come to me, Buddy Rare!
[04:47] ---
    It's here!
[04:50] ---
    Finally, my Buddy Rare is...
[04:53] ---
    It's gone!
[04:53] ---
    Hey...
[04:55] ---
    What's that between your legs?
[04:58] ---
    What?!
[05:00] ---
    An egg?
[05:02] ---
    Yeah!
[05:03] ---
    So I thought I'd try incubating
    it so it would hatch.
[05:06] ---
    I see.
[05:08] ---
    Bal?
[05:09] ---
    It talks!
[05:10] ---
    What's your name?
[05:12] ---
    Maybe he doesn't have one yet.
[05:14] ---
    Don't have one yet, bal.
[05:15] ---
    In that case...
[05:16] ---
    From now on, your name is Bal!
[05:19] ---
    Bal, bal!
[05:20] ---
    And inside that eggshell, we found
    a whole bunch of Sun Dragon cards.
[05:26] ---
    And that's when Kyoya Gaen showed up.
[05:28] ---
    Bal, bal!
[05:31] ---
    Dragon of the Sun, Bal Dragon!
[05:33] ---
    Bal is gonna defeat Lots-of-Faces, bal!
[05:36] ---
    Impact Call!
[05:38] ---
    Impact Call?
[05:40] ---
    Meow?
[05:41] ---
    I pay 3 gauge and transform Bal Dragon...
[05:44] ---
    Into an Impact Monster!
[05:46] ---
    An Impact Monster?
[05:51] ---
    Bal will try his super-best, bal!
[05:54] ---
    The monster and the Impact
    card have combined!
[05:56] ---
    It's a card that never existed before!
[06:09] ---
    Bal Burst Smasher!
[06:17] ---
    You defeated Kyoya Gaen,
    the greatest Buddyfighter in the world?
[06:21] ---
    Pretty much.
[06:23] ---
    If you didn't win,
[06:24] ---
    Bal would have been apprehended
    as a dangerous monster, right?
[06:28] ---
    As for my Impact Monster card,
    I received it from Bal.
[06:32] ---
    He just gave it to you?
[06:34] ---
    Bal will give you this, bal!
[06:36] ---
    Hey! Bal's scribbling something on that card!
[06:39] ---
    Here, bal!
[06:41] ---
    Th-Thanks.
[06:43] ---
    Jack?
[06:44] ---
    Tasuku. This card...could it be?
[06:48] ---
    Bal drew it for Jack, bal!
[06:52] ---
    So Bal has the power to
    create Impact Monsters?
[06:56] ---
    It's easy to see why
    Kyoya Gaen wants him.
[06:59] ---
    But there are others who
    have Impact Monsters too.
[07:03] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu.
[07:05] ---
    The fighter whose Buddy is
    Black Death Dragon, Abygale.
[07:08] ---
    Impact call to the center!
[07:11] ---
    Now, show me.
[07:13] ---
    I transform Abygale into
    an Impact Monster!
[07:17] ---
    Abygale is now a size 3 monster with
    8000 power and defense, and a critical of 3!
[07:23] ---
    And I activate his ability!
[07:26] ---
    I destroy all monsters
    other than this card!
[07:32] ---
    Now you will learn Gaito's true power!
[07:35] ---
    Now, count the number of cards
    that fell into your drop zone!
[07:40] ---
    I have 13 cards in my drop zone.
[07:43] ---
    Now, come.
[07:45] ---
    Very well.
[07:47] ---
    Right now, Abygale has a critical of 6.
[07:49] ---
    And his attack cannot be nullified!
[07:53] ---
    Scatter in space, like stardust!
[07:55] ---
    Vanishing Death Hole!
[08:05] ---
    We don't know how he learned
    to use Impact Monsters...
[08:09] ---
    But I feel like his strength has no limits.
[08:14] ---
    What's wrong, Mighty Sun Fighter?
[08:16] ---
    Huh?
[08:17] ---
    No matter how we feel, chiefs like
    us need to lead our friends by smiling.
[08:22] ---
    Thanks for reminding me.
[08:23] ---
    Gao!
[08:24] ---
    Get over here quick, bal!
[08:26] ---
    Or else Bal and Baku will eat it all, bal!
[08:29] ---
    That's right!
[08:30] ---
    We were in the middle
    of a Celebration Festival!
[08:32] ---
    Let's go!
[08:33] ---
    Yeah!
[08:34] ---
    Wow, Bal! Is it just me,
    or are you eating more than Baku?
[08:37] ---
    You're going to get fat again!
[08:38] ---
    Not true, bal.
[08:41] ---
    Now, the moment you've
    all been waiting for!
[08:44] ---
    Let's take a moment to
    look back at the terrific battles
[08:48] ---
    of the winners of the
    Cho-Tokyo Championship!
[08:51] ---
    We call it: Fiery Battle!
    Cho-Tokyo Championship!
[08:54] ---
    Meow meow!
[08:55] ---
    Don't change that channel!
[08:58] ---
    There were some
    hot, hot, hot battles,
[09:00] ---
    but these 8 fighters were the ones
    who made it into the Best 8!
[09:03] ---
    Master Tasuku Ryuenji!
[09:05] ---
    Masuka Raid!
[09:07] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu!
[09:09] ---
    Wataru Kageo!
[09:11] ---
    Gao Mikado!
[09:13] ---
    Dash Kazakiri!
[09:15] ---
    Genma Todoroki!
[09:17] ---
    Dai Kaido!
[09:20] ---
    Let's start with the first match
    of the quarterfinals,
[09:22] ---
    Tasuku Ryuenji versus Masuka Raid, B!
[09:27] ---
    Now's your chance, Blazer Frill!
[09:29] ---
    Don't order me around!
[09:30] ---
    Final Phase!
    I pay 2 gauge and cast!
[09:38] ---
    Blazer Blaezer!
[09:41] ---
    Accept my love!
[09:44] ---
    Many people considered Master Tasuku Ryuenji
    their top pick for winning this championship!
[09:48] ---
    But Masuka Raid's skillful combo attacks
    had Master Tasuku on the ropes!
[09:53] ---
    You two aren't going to have a next turn.
[09:56] ---
    Final Phase!
[09:59] ---
    Impact Call!
[10:00] ---
    I pay 3 gauge and transform
    Jackknife into an Impact Monster!
[10:07] ---
    Jack is now a size 2 monster with 6000 power
    and defense, and a critical of 2.
[10:11] ---
    He Crossnizes with the Jackarms
    J Thruster in the drop zone.
[10:15] ---
    Also, I activate J Thruster's ability!
[10:19] ---
    I discard one card from my hand and
    Crossnize one more J Thruster from my deck!
[10:23] ---
    And by Crossnizing with J Igniter,
    his critical is now 3!
[10:30] ---
    All busters terminate!
[10:37] ---
    I activate Jack's ability.
[10:38] ---
    Safety Release!
[10:40] ---
    Rain down, lights of the stars!
[10:44] ---
    Full Liberate Cannon!
[10:46] ---
    Shoot!
[10:52] ---
    No way!
[11:03] ---
    Just in the nick of time,
    Tasuku Ryuenji's Impact Monster struck!
[11:09] ---
    Which sped him along to the Best 4, B!
[11:12] ---
    Next up, the second match of the Quarterfinals!
[11:16] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu versus Wataru Kageo!
[11:20] ---
    I pay 2 gauge and Buddy call to the center,
    Illusionist of Shadowform, Silhouette Joe!
[11:27] ---
    It's showtime!
[11:31] ---
    In this Buddyfight,
    Gaito Kurouzu's Impact Monster,
[11:33] ---
    Abygale Vanishing Death Hole,
    was missing from his deck!
[11:38] ---
    He seemed utterly helpless, but then!
[11:41] ---
    Abygale is now a size 3 monster with 8000 power,
    7000 defense, and a critical of 2.
[11:47] ---
    I activate his ability!
[11:53] ---
    Now you will learn Gaito's true power!
[12:00] ---
    Whoa! Wataru has lost 10 cards
    from his deck and lost 2 life!
[12:05] ---
    Offer your soul to the dark whirlwind!
[12:09] ---
    Defeat is your destiny.
[12:13] ---
    Now, surrender yourself to destiny!
[12:16] ---
    Unlimited Death Drain!
[12:22] ---
    B-B-Believe it or not, Gaito Kurouzu used
    a brand-new Impact Monster and proved victorious!
[12:29] ---
    And the third match of
    the Quarterfinals was...
[12:32] ---
    Gao Mikado versus Dash Kazakiri!
[12:37] ---
    I Buddy call Ride-Changer Officer,
    Winning Maximum!
[12:41] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and ride!
[12:44] ---
    Roger that!
[12:44] ---
    Maximum Crush!
[12:47] ---
    Go!
[12:51] ---
    My turn is over!
[12:53] ---
    Gao! Bal wants to fight already, bal!
[12:56] ---
    From early on in the fight, the two Buddyfighters
    were matched in attack and defense.
[12:59] ---
    But then, something
    unbelievable happened to Gao!
[13:03] ---
    What? Bal Dragon, glub glub?
[13:05] ---
    Senior Gao! Your ears...
[13:08] ---
    What is it, glub glub?
[13:09] ---
    Is there something on my face, glub glub?
[13:11] ---
    Huh?
[13:11] ---
    Glub glub?
[13:12] ---
    Impact Call, glub!
[13:15] ---
    I pay 3 gauge and transform
    Bal Dragon into an Impact Monster!
[13:24] ---
    Bal Burst Smasher!
[13:32] ---
    Gao Mikado didn't let his tough
    situation bring him down!
[13:35] ---
    He let loose with an Impact Monster and
    proceeded to the semi-finals!
[13:39] ---
    Up to this point, all the matches were
    settled by Impact Monsters.
[13:42] ---
    You could say that the Impact Monsters
    were really something to
[13:45] ---
    keep an eye on during this championship!
[13:48] ---
    Please don't pull out your eye like that!
[13:50] ---
    If you think Impact Monsters are the only strong
    monsters around, that's a huge mistake, turtle!
[13:54] ---
    A major mistake, turtle!
[13:56] ---
    A mistake like mountain oysters, turtle!
[13:58] ---
    It's just as they say!
[14:00] ---
    The final battle of the Best 8 was
    a massive Buddy Monster battle that
[14:04] ---
    was easily the equal of
    those Impact Monsters!
[14:06] ---
    The fourth match of the Quarterfinals was...
[14:08] ---
    Dai Kaido versus Genma Todoroki!
[14:12] ---
    I pay 2 gauge and
    Buddy call to the center!
[14:17] ---
    It's not just his size that's enormous,
    his actions are massive too!
[14:20] ---
    His abilities shocked us to the core!
    Martial Arts Chief, Duel Jaeger!
[14:26] ---
    Martial Arts Chief, Duel Jaeger!
[14:30] ---
    Duel Jaeger obliterates Spartand!
[14:34] ---
    The final form of my Buddy!
[14:37] ---
    And that deity's name is...
[14:39] ---
    Duel Sieger! Tempest Enforcer!
[14:46] ---
    When it comes to size,
    this guy's no chump either!
[14:49] ---
    Genma Todoroki's Buddy, Martial Arts
    Dragon Emperor, Duel Sieger's final form!
[14:53] ---
    Duel Sieger, Tempest Enforcer!
[14:59] ---
    By discarding a Dragon Chief Emperor
    from my hand cards,
[15:02] ---
    Duel Jaeger's defense
    is changed to 15000!
[15:10] ---
    It's a festival, a festival!
[15:12] ---
    Duel Jaeger, it's time for
    a link attack festival!
[15:16] ---
    That was splendid,
    Chief of the Ocean, Dai Kaido.
[15:21] ---
    Dai Kaido blocked all three of Duel Sieger,
    Tempest Enforcer's attacks!
[15:27] ---
    All any of us can say is well done, B!
[15:32] ---
    And finally, we have the first
    match of the semifinals!
[15:34] ---
    Gao Mikado versus Gaito Kurouzu!
[15:38] ---
    If the previous battle
    was Power versus Power,
[15:41] ---
    this one was an exchange of
    Impact Monster for Impact Monster!
[15:44] ---
    Bal Burst Smasher!
[15:48] ---
    I cast! Black Dragon Shield!
[15:52] ---
    Bal?
[15:53] ---
    He blocked the attack?
[15:54] ---
    Now you will learn Gaito's true power!
[16:01] ---
    He destroys Gao's deck and deals 2 damage!
[16:04] ---
    Offer your soul to the dark whirlwind!
[16:08] ---
    Defeat is your destiny.
[16:11] ---
    Unlimited Death Drain!
[16:14] ---
    Gao!
[16:15] ---
    I cast! Sun Dragon Shield!
[16:22] ---
    Bal!
[16:25] ---
    Bal!
[16:30] ---
    Gaito...
[16:34] ---
    Abygale!
[16:35] ---
    Final Phase!
[16:43] ---
    Gao let loose with a second Impact Monster,
    and moved on to the finals!
[16:49] ---
    All eyes were on the second
    match of the semifinals!
[16:52] ---
    Dai Kaido versus Tasuku Ryuenji!
[16:55] ---
    I evolve Duel Jaeger!
[17:01] ---
    Stout Wrist Unmatched Chief!
[17:05] ---
    Duel Jaeger Revolted
[17:11] ---
    Full Liberate Cannon!
[17:14] ---
    Shoot!
[17:15] ---
    Ocean Emperor's Imperial Spirit!
[17:20] ---
    Whoa! The three Dragonarms
    have been destroyed!
[17:24] ---
    I can't inflict damage on him?
[17:31] ---
    My turn is over.
[17:33] ---
    It's a festival, a festival!
[17:37] ---
    Who could have predicted it?
[17:39] ---
    That Master Tasuku would
    be in such dire straits,
[17:42] ---
    and that he would fight so desperately?
[17:45] ---
    Stout Wrist Martial Arts Deity Strike!
[17:54] ---
    Victory smiled upon Dai Kaido!
[17:58] ---
    And after a one-week interval, it was time for the
    Cho-Tokyo Championship Final match at last!
[18:04] ---
    Who would win? The Impact Monster,
    or the invincible dragon?
[18:08] ---
    The final match!
    Gao Mikado and Dai Kaido!
[18:12] ---
    Buddy...
[18:14] ---
    Fight!
[18:15] ---
    Crush Dai Kaido's Buddy,
    Martial Arts Chief Duel Jaeger,
[18:19] ---
    before he has a chance
    to evolve it into Revolted!
[18:22] ---
    Gao Mikado went on the offense, B!
[18:26] ---
    However! Dai Kaido used a spell to send
    Duel Jaeger's souls directly to the drop zone!
[18:32] ---
    This allowed him to quickly evolve
    Duel Jaeger into Duel Jaeger Revolted!
[18:37] ---
    Stout Wrist Unmatched Chief!
[18:40] ---
    Duel Jaeger Revolted!
[18:46] ---
    Bal!
[18:49] ---
    Bal Bal Bal!
[18:53] ---
    Bal!
[18:56] ---
    It's useless, utterly useless!
[18:58] ---
    There's plenty of soul cards left!
[19:01] ---
    Soulguard, activate!
[19:03] ---
    Oh no! As we feared,
    that ends Gao Mikado's turn!
[19:08] ---
    Final Phase!
[19:10] ---
    I pay 3 gauge and transform Bal Dragon...
[19:13] ---
    Into an Impact Monster!
[19:17] ---
    Bal will try his super-best, bal!
[19:20] ---
    Bal becomes a size 2 monster with 11000 power,
    6000 defense, and a critical of 3!
[19:26] ---
    And when he attacks,
[19:28] ---
    I can return up to 3 Sun Dragon
    monsters from the drop zone to my deck!
[19:32] ---
    And if I do that...
[19:35] ---
    Bal can destroy an enemy monster
    for each Sun Dragon card!
[19:38] ---
    Bal, Bal!
[19:40] ---
    Bal, Bal!
[19:44] ---
    Bal will try his super-super-best, bal!
[19:51] ---
    Bal!
[19:52] ---
    Great Full!
[19:54] ---
    Bal!
[19:55] ---
    Lariat!
[19:57] ---
    He's destroyed it!
[19:59] ---
    And in that instant,
    Gao Mikado grasped victory!
[20:04] ---
    And with that...
[20:06] ---
    This presentation of Fiery Battle!
[20:08] ---
    Cho-Tokyo Championship is over, B!
[20:11] ---
    Meow meow!
[20:13] ---
    Takochu!
[20:15] ---
    Oh! Finally we can see
    our destination, Cho-Taiyo Island!
[20:19] ---
    It looks like many other Buddyfighters
    are heading that way as well!
[20:30] ---
    This is what they call security?
[20:33] ---
    Zodiac.
[20:35] ---
    Gravity Rest!
[20:42] ---
    I'm impressed.
[20:44] ---
    I didn't think an intruder
    would make it in there.
[20:47] ---
    Kyoya Gaen, is it?
[20:49] ---
    I like this place.
[20:51] ---
    From now on, I'll be using it.
[20:53] ---
    I can't be having that. You're going
    to leave, even if I have to use force.
[20:58] ---
    That's right. I heard you're going to be
    having the Japan Tournament on this island.
[21:01] ---
    If you want the Tournament to go off
    without a hitch, you'd better do as I say.
[21:06] ---
    I remember now.
    You're Doctor Gara, aren't you.
[21:09] ---
    An excellent observation.
    That's right...
[21:12] ---
    I'm the super-genius of the century,
[21:14] ---
    who's going to bring a revolution to
    the science of Monster Engineering...
[21:17] ---
    The great Doctor Gara!
[21:19] ---
    You called my work an abomination,
[21:21] ---
    yet you have your own artificial
    monster research laboratory!
[21:26] ---
    I have no interest in debating with you.
[21:28] ---
    I'm taking actions to
    remove you right away.
[21:31] ---
    Try it if you can.
[21:32] ---
    Of course, then the whole
    world would learn that
[21:36] ---
    the WBC Cup's sponsor is dabbling
    in such forbidden research.
[21:39] ---
    That would be more convenient for me too.
[21:47] ---
    Doctor Gara.
[21:49] ---
    I should have eliminated
    him when we first met.
[21:52] ---
    What are you going to do, my other half?
[21:56] ---
    We'll have to see how things develop.
[21:59] ---
    Then what about my Dragon Force?
[22:02] ---
    Wasn't this all planned so that
    we could gain the Dragon Force?
[22:08] ---
    Gara.
[22:10] ---
    Do as you like for now.
[22:14] ---
    But if you try to get close to
    the secret of the Dragon Force...
[22:18] ---
    I'll just have to use this.
[22:22] ---
    Dragon Zwei!
[22:37] ---
    I'm never going to lose again.
[22:39] ---
    In order to make sure of that, I need the ultimate power
    of the dragons, which is hidden on this island.
[22:44] ---
    I will gain the Dragon Force!
[22:47] ---
    Gaito.
[22:49] ---
    That's my destiny!
[22:54] ---
    Today's winning card!
[22:57] ---
    Ocean Emperor's Anchor, Wild Waves!
[22:59] ---
    Even if your center position is occupied,
    you can still attack with this item card!
[23:03] ---
    And if you place it in a Dragon Chief Emperor
    card's soul, that card gains penetrate!
[23:07] ---
    Bal is a champ at penetrate too, bal!
[24:40] ---
    To win the Japan Tournament,
    we have to win 100 fights, bal!
[24:45] ---
    What? An Impact Monster blocker?
[24:47] ---

    WBC Cup Japan Tournament!

    Buddyfight, bal!
