[01:31] ---
    This is sudden,
    but here's our story so far!
[01:33] ---
    Subaru's close friend, Seiji,
    had become Vile Ranma's ally!
[01:37] ---
    When Subaru found out, he challenged
    Vile Ranma to a Buddyfight.
[01:40] ---
    But the power of Lost World
    was too much for him!
[01:45] ---
    What?
[01:46] ---
    You were unable to withstand Destroyer's
    attack, and so I was unable to win.
[01:51] ---
    Wh-What are you saying?
[01:53] ---
    I don't want to see your face ever again!
[01:55] ---
    Begone from my sight!
[01:57] ---
    After his defeat, Subaru gave in
    to his rage and banished Cross.
[02:01] ---
    Meanwhile, Vile Ranma gave Subaru a Lostrizer card
    and told him to join him as an ally, before departing.
[02:11] ---
    Target: Miko! A Kidnapped Cat!?
[02:17] ---
    Meow-meow! Meow-meow!
[02:19] ---
    Meow-meow-meow, Gar! Gar! Garcat!
[02:24] ---
    Helping with some shopping,
    what a good boy, Garcat! Hey!
[02:36] ---
    Y-Y-Y-Yuga!
[02:39] ---
    Cross?
[02:41] ---
    What's going on?
[02:42] ---
    Subaru has... banished me.
[02:45] ---
    Huh?
[02:46] ---
    What?!
[02:50] ---
    I can't believe Subaru did that...
[02:52] ---
    We were worried too, but... we heard
    that he didn't want to talk to anyone.
[02:57] ---
    So we decided to wait and see,
    especially since he had Cross with him.
[03:00] ---
    But we never expected him to
    banish his own Buddy.
[03:03] ---
    If Yuga ever banished Master Garga...
[03:06] ---
    What would I do, cat?
[03:08] ---
    What are you talking about?
[03:09] ---
    And he's not going to
    school either, right?
[03:11] ---
    That's correct... but if you're concerned about Subaru's grades,
    taking a few days off school shouldn't affect them...
[03:18] ---
    Is that really the biggest issue here?
[03:20] ---
    Oh, Subaru! Why?
[03:24] ---
    No, I will continue to believe in Subaru.
[03:26] ---
    I have faith that he will call
    me back, eventually.
[03:28] ---
    What should I do?
    Maybe I'll swing by Subaru's place.
[03:31] ---
    He's keeping his distance
    from even his Buddy.
[03:33] ---
    Why don't you give him a little
    space for a while longer?
[03:36] ---
    Yes... He said that he didn't
    want to see anybody right now.
[03:39] ---
    Okay.
[03:41] ---
    In that case, Cross dear,
    you should stay with us for a bit.
[03:44] ---
    You're sure that's all right?
[03:46] ---
    Yeah! No need to be a stranger.
[03:48] ---
    The octopus dumplings here are delicious!
[03:51] ---
    Thank you so much!
[03:54] ---
    Here I go!
[04:04] ---
    They broadcast my most embarrassing moments!
    This is unforgivable!
[04:08] ---
    Yuga Mikado and his stupid friends...
[04:11] ---
    I know! I'll check out my
    wonderful Da-Dan Channel...
[04:16] ---
    Another request for deletion!
[04:19] ---
    I'm an up-and-coming charismatic
    PalTuber and influencer!
[04:21] ---
    Why is this happening to me?
[04:23] ---
    I'm going to leave some anonymous "this video
    sucks" comments on Ran-Ga Channel's uploads!
[04:29] ---
    Today, we've got a Ran-Ga
    Channel special report!
[04:32] ---
    This is a restaurant where
    you can eat delicious pizza!
[04:36] ---
    Um, this is Cafe Mikono.
[04:39] ---
    It's sweet little Miko!
[04:43] ---
    I just thought of something great!
[04:48] ---
    I see...
[04:49] ---
    So Cross is at your place now, Yuga.
[04:51] ---
    It's unbelievable.
[04:53] ---
    What's going on with Subaru?
[04:55] ---
    Mel was really worried too.
[04:57] ---
    She hasn't seen Subaru at all lately.
[05:00] ---
    Anyway, we should just keep
    an eye on him for a while.
[05:03] ---
    Agreed.
[05:03] ---
    Oh! The other day, I got some
    more cards at the shop.
[05:08] ---
    Check it out!
[05:11] ---
    Now that I've used Katana World,
    I'm hungry for more.
[05:14] ---
    Oh! This one looks strong.
[05:16] ---
    4000 power!
[05:17] ---
    And 10000 defense, huh?
[05:19] ---
    The ability's pretty good too!
[05:21] ---
    I know, right?
[05:22] ---
    I think he'll be a reliable ally...
[05:30] ---
    I'm Radiant Electrodeity, Ameno-Wakahiko.
[05:33] ---
    Are you my Buddy?
[05:37] ---
    Lady Amaterasu!
[05:38] ---
    I'm her Buddy!
[05:39] ---
    Too bad for you!
[05:41] ---
    Is that so...
[05:43] ---
    Just when I thought I'd finally
    met my destined Buddy.
[05:49] ---
    You'll have to give up on my little Miko.
[05:52] ---
    It seems there's nothing I can do...
[05:54] ---
    Except offer Lady Amaterasu this comfortable cave
    complete with air conditioning and a fluffy bed!
[05:58] ---
    You could spend all year in
    climate-controlled bliss!
[06:01] ---
    Comes with a complimentary
    boulder for a door!
[06:03] ---
    What?!
[06:05] ---
    This guy doesn't give upl...
[06:08] ---
    You're trying to chase me off, aren't you?
[06:10] ---
    Now you've made me mad!
[06:11] ---
    Act now, and I'll throw
    in a wide-screen TV!
[06:15] ---
    Oh no, that won't do at all!
[06:17] ---
    If Amaterasu hid behind that boulder,
    I'd be in big trouble.
[06:19] ---
    I'm sorry. Will you help me,
    even if I can't be your Buddy?
[06:23] ---
    Of course, milady.
[06:24] ---
    And over time, you and
    I will become Buddies...
[06:26] ---
    No you won't!
[06:27] ---
    In the end, we'll become Buddies...
[06:29] ---
    No you won't!
[06:30] ---
    One morning, you'll wake up
    and I'll be your Buddy!
[06:32] ---
    If you don't cut it out,
    I'm going to scratch you up!
[06:35] ---
    He's persistent, I'll give him that.
[06:38] ---
    He seems like an interesting fellow.
[06:39] ---
    I'd love to see what Miko's Buddyfights
    will be like with him on her team!
[06:53] ---
    Welcome home, ma'am.
[06:55] ---
    C-Could it be? Did you clean
    the house while I was gone?
[06:58] ---
    You're letting me stay here.
    It's the least I could do.
[07:00] ---
    Incredible...
[07:00] ---
    Once I'm finished here, I'll take care of the bathroom,
    the bathtub, and the veranda as well.
[07:04] ---
    Oh! Are you all right?
[07:06] ---
    I'm so happy I could faint!
[07:11] ---
    Here you go, meow!
[07:12] ---
    Indeed!
[07:12] ---
    Come and get some discount
    coupons for Cafe Mikono!
[07:15] ---
    Get a great deal on a cup of coffee!
[07:17] ---
    Take another one, bird!
[07:18] ---
    Thank you, meow!
[07:22] ---
    Bloody-Eyes!
[07:23] ---
    I've got a favor to ask of you...
[07:28] ---
    I'm ready to eat a whole
    lot of pizza today!
[07:31] ---
    Me too!
[07:33] ---
    Huh?
[07:36] ---
    I wonder what that is.
[07:39] ---
    Dear sweet little Miko...
[07:41] ---
    I've got your precious little cat Buddy.
[07:43] ---
    If you want her returned safely, you have to
    promise to be Da-Dan Channel's official teen idol!
[07:47] ---
    I'll be waiting for you at this location!
[07:50] ---
    Isn't this...
[07:51] ---
    Amaterasu said she'd be in town
    distributing coupons for our coffee...
[07:56] ---
    That Da Dan!
[07:57] ---
    He's still up to no good!
[08:00] ---
    There's no limit to his
    underhanded sneaky ways!
[08:03] ---
    What should I do? If anything
    happened to Amaterasu...
[08:06] ---
    First, let's go to
    the location on the map.
[08:08] ---
    We will accompany you!
[08:10] ---
    I've returned!
[08:13] ---
    We gave out many many coupons!
[08:15] ---
    Happy, happy.
[08:18] ---
    I'm so glad!
[08:19] ---
    So glad you're safe!
[08:23] ---
    I thought you'd been kidnapped by Da Dan!
[08:25] ---
    What are you talking about?
[08:26] ---
    Puzzling, puzzling...
[08:28] ---
    You guys were with her the whole time?
[08:30] ---
    They were kind enough to help me.
[08:34] ---
    What happened to Garcat?
[08:35] ---
    Huh? Where did he go, bird?
[08:39] ---
    Maybe he got kidnapped by mistake
    because they're both cats!
[08:42] ---
    No way!
[08:44] ---
    I mean, that could never happen...
[08:45] ---
    Could it?
[08:47] ---
    Oh? Why is Garcat's headband here?
[08:51] ---
    What?
[08:52] ---
    That was attached to the ransom note...
[08:55] ---
    Cat!
[08:56] ---
    This can't be happening!
[08:57] ---
    Uh, in any case, Garga,
    let's go rescue Garcat.
[09:01] ---
    G-Good idea.
[09:02] ---
    We're coming too!
[09:03] ---
    I'll come too!
[09:05] ---
    But you're Da Dan's target, Miko.
    Maybe it's better if you stay here.
[09:09] ---
    Garcat was mistaken for my Amaterasu!
[09:12] ---
    How can I just sit here and wait?
[09:14] ---
    All right! We've got to get a move on.
[09:16] ---
    Thanks. All of you.
[09:23] ---
    You'd better have delivered
    that letter to sweet little Miko.
[09:27] ---
    Where am I, meow?
[09:28] ---
    The time has come.
[09:30] ---
    The goddess will be lured by the white
    scroll and guided to our paradise.
[09:36] ---
    I don't really know what you're talking
    about, but you got the job done, right?
[09:41] ---
    And so sweet little Miko will become
    Da-Dan Channel's exclusive teen idol!
[09:45] ---
    Da-Dan! The great Da Dan is here!
[09:48] ---
    And here comes my lovely assistant,
    sweet little Miko!
[09:51] ---
    Once again, I'm bringing you fresh content together
    with that charismatic PalTuber, the great Da Dan!
[09:58] ---
    And our subscription rates
    will go through the roof!
[10:02] ---
    There he is!
    Hey, Da Dan!
[10:04] ---
    Yuga Mikado!
[10:06] ---
    Ooh! Sweet little Miko!
[10:11] ---
    Why is...
[10:15] ---
    What?
[10:16] ---
    This isn't Amaterasu!
[10:18] ---
    Meow!
[10:20] ---
    What's going on?
[10:23] ---
    You're the one who told me
    to kidnap a talking cat.
[10:27] ---
    Meow meow!
[10:30] ---
    Oh, how cute! Are you
    helping out with the cafe?
[10:32] ---
    Meow!
[10:34] ---
    This is a discount coupon, cat!
[10:38] ---
    That must be my target.
[10:42] ---
    Da Dan! Give Garcat back to us!
[10:45] ---
    I guess this will work too.
[10:48] ---
    I'll trade him for sweet little Miko!
[10:51] ---
    Oh, and while I'm at it, Yuga Mikado...
    You have to bow down before me.
[10:54] ---
    What? How dare you!
[10:56] ---
    Whoa there!
[10:57] ---
    You monsters better not make a move!
[10:59] ---
    Or else...
[11:02] ---
    Stop it!
[11:03] ---
    Stop it, cat!
[11:05] ---
    Garcat's going to suffer for it.
[11:10] ---
    Oh, you've really done it this time...
    this is unforgivable!
[11:13] ---
    Is he the one who's making you so angry?
[11:21] ---
    I thought I saw something just now.
[11:24] ---
    All I need to do... is join you?
[11:29] ---
    That's right! Come here, cutie!
[11:32] ---
    Hey! Miko!
[11:52] ---
    Now, return Garcat to his
    friends in exchange for me.
[11:56] ---
    All right! Bloody-Eyes,
    let's blow this joint!
[12:03] ---
    Let me go, meow!
[12:04] ---
    This isn't what we agreed to!
[12:06] ---
    Shut up!
[12:08] ---
    This insolent kitten dared
    to bite me on the hand!
[12:11] ---
    So now I'm going to teach
    him a lesson or two!
[12:14] ---
    Then I guess I'd better
    teach him a lesson, too.
[12:22] ---
    If you don't return Garcat to Yuga,
    you're going to lose your Buddy.
[12:26] ---
    What are you going to do?
[12:29] ---
    Y-You're not sweet little Miko!
[12:31] ---
    Forgive me.
[12:32] ---
    I was deceived by the
    fragile form of a maiden.
[12:35] ---
    I am but a foolish sinner.
[12:37] ---
    My bow arm is starting to get tired.
[12:41] ---
    Fine! Take it, you thief!
[12:50] ---
    Are you okay, dog?
[12:52] ---
    Now, what are you going to do?
[12:54] ---
    Do you want to fight us?
[12:57] ---
    You have me outnumbered, you cheaters!
[12:59] ---
    You're one to talk!
[13:00] ---
    I-I know!
[13:02] ---
    Face me in a Buddyfight,
    if you've got the guts!
[13:05] ---
    Then I'll do it.
[13:07] ---
    I challenge you!
[13:08] ---
    And if I lose, I'll appear on
    Da Dan Channel, just one time!
[13:25] ---
    There's no stopping this, is there.
[13:27] ---
    Things are about to get interesting.
[13:29] ---
    All right, it's a deal!
[13:31] ---
    If I lose, cute little Miko won't have
    to worry about me anymore...
[13:34] ---
    I won't come near her anymore... Maybe...
[13:36] ---
    But if I win, Miko will appear on Da Dan
    Channel ten thousand times!
[13:41] ---
    He's changed the conditions, bird.
[13:45] ---
    What are you doing, cat?
[13:46] ---
    We've got to start filming, cat!
[13:48] ---
    Roll camera, cat!
[13:49] ---
    You were kidnapped and crying
    just a moment ago, dog.
[13:54] ---
    Purge evil! Purify the unclean!
    Protect the innocent!
[13:58] ---
    And Luminize!
[14:00] ---
    Blessed Heavenly Light!
[14:03] ---
    Dragonblood Sect!
[14:04] ---
    Appear with a big Da-Dan!
[14:07] ---
    Luminize!
[14:09] ---
    Bloody Nightmare!
[14:12] ---
    Buddy...fight!
[14:13] ---
    Raise the flag!
[14:16] ---
    Katana World!
[14:19] ---
    Dragon World!
[14:22] ---
    Electrodeity of Light, Amaterasu!
[14:27] ---
    Bloody-Eyes!
[14:32] ---
    I have the first move!
[14:33] ---
    Draw! Charge and draw!
[14:37] ---
    I equip! Kagura-bell of Worship!
[14:42] ---
    This is for doing such awful
    things to little Garcat!
[14:48] ---
    She's gotten a hit in! Great going, Miko!
[14:51] ---
    It's the Great Da Dan's turn.
[14:53] ---
    Draw, charge and draw!
[14:57] ---
    Possess, Radiant Electro-Deity
    Ameno-Wakahiko!
[15:05] ---
    Hey. Nice to see you again.
[15:07] ---
    You! You're that guy from earlier!
[15:09] ---
    But this is my turn!
[15:11] ---
    So he's already making his appearance.
[15:14] ---
    I equip! Pleading Gloves!
[15:23] ---
    Forgive me, friend.
[15:24] ---
    Your life is chipped away according
    to the rules of darkness.
[15:28] ---
    I Buddy call Bloody-Eyes to the right!
[15:32] ---
    Now is the time to submit to the covenant
    of blood, and unleash my accursed powers!
[15:37] ---
    Bloody-Eyes, do a link attack with me!
[15:41] ---
    I'm not showing you any mercy!
[15:43] ---
    I cast! Ceremonial, Fire Mirror!
[15:46] ---
    Too bad. Your attack is nullified.
[15:49] ---
    I can't let garbage like you harm Miko.
[15:52] ---
    Yes, that's an excellent attitude.
[15:54] ---
    It's the first step towards
    becoming her Buddy.
[15:58] ---
    Well, that's never happening.
[16:00] ---
    That guy... He still hasn't given up.
[16:06] ---
    Bloody-Eyes has Double Attack, so there!
[16:09] ---
    Go, Bloody-Eyes!
[16:12] ---
    Freezing Flames!
[16:14] ---
    My ability, activate!
[16:16] ---
    I'll diminish his power.
[16:20] ---
    Bloody-Eyes' power and
    defense are decreased by 3000.
[16:24] ---
    His critical is decreased by 1!
[16:28] ---
    Wh-What?!
[16:30] ---
    Great work! Ameno-Wakahiko
    has 10000 defense.
[16:34] ---
    Bloody-Eyes doesn't have enough power!
[16:38] ---
    Wait a moment...
[16:39] ---
    That means my turn is over now!
[16:42] ---
    She managed to avoid
    taking damage this turn!
[16:45] ---
    Applause, applause.
[16:46] ---
    You did an excellent job of protecting my dear Miko.
    It's quite an accomplishment.
[16:50] ---
    Then from now on, I'll take your place,
    Lady Amaterasu, and...
[16:53] ---
    You are not going to be her Buddy.
[16:57] ---
    Guess it's time for me to
    return to her hand cards.
[17:04] ---
    Now, prepare for trouble!
[17:08] ---
    Buddy Possess!
[17:25] ---
    It seems that nobody can
    replace me as Miko's Buddy.
[17:30] ---
    This is sudden, but let me explain!
[17:32] ---
    The odds were in Da Dan's favor.
[17:35] ---
    After all, Bloody-Eyes has the ability to nullify
    the abilities of one monster of his choice.
[17:39] ---
    And by forcing that monster to attack him,
    he can activate his Counterattack ability.
[17:44] ---
    And each time he destroys an enemy monster,
    he deals damage to the opponent.
[17:51] ---
    Da Dan was waiting for the moment
    that Miko fell prey to this effect.
[17:55] ---
    He thought, now, come at me, monsters!
    Hurry and attack me!
[17:59] ---
    I cast! Ceremonial, Winged Arrows!
[18:04] ---
    It seems that I'm the most
    suited to be Miko's Buddy!
[18:07] ---
    You again!
[18:08] ---
    That's enough nonsense out of you.
[18:10] ---
    Do your job, and hop to it!
[18:16] ---
    Bloody-Eyes' soul was discarded!
[18:19] ---
    That must be Winged Arrows's effect.
[18:21] ---
    That isn't the only effect.
[18:23] ---
    Destroy Bloody-Eyes!
[18:25] ---
    What?
[18:32] ---
    Why don't you cut it out with the cheap
    tricks and bring out some monsters already?
[18:36] ---
    I cast!
[18:38] ---
    Ceremonial, Winged Arrows!
[18:41] ---
    So sorry that you think
    this is a cheap trick!
[18:45] ---
    S-She had another one?
[18:46] ---
    W-Wait just a moment!
[18:49] ---
    Don't be so alarmed. I'm just going
    to lightly hit your Buddy.
[18:53] ---
    There's nothing light about it!
[18:59] ---
    Destroy Bloody-Eyes!
[19:05] ---
    Well then, Lady Amaterasu.
[19:06] ---
    I'll leave the rest to you.
[19:10] ---
    Now she no longer has to
    worry about Counterattack.
[19:12] ---
    Miko's attack is about to begin!
[19:15] ---
    I call Guardian Electrobeast,
    Komaji to the left.
[19:17] ---
    I call Guardian Electrobeast,
    Komaichi to the right.
[19:23] ---
    Due to Komaji's effect, I gain
    1 gauge and draw a card.
[19:26] ---
    And I gain 1 life.
[19:29] ---
    Due to Komaichi's effect, the cards on
    my field gain 3000 power and 1 critical.
[19:35] ---
    And now I activate my own ability.
[19:37] ---
    All cards gain 8000 power
    and Double Attack.
[19:41] ---
    What?
[19:42] ---
    Komaji, go forth!
[19:50] ---
    Komaichi, follow him!
[19:56] ---
    And next... comes my attack!
[20:02] ---
    But not so fast!
[20:04] ---
    I cast! Green Dragon Shield!
[20:08] ---
    Double Attack.
[20:11] ---
    On second thought...
[20:15] ---
    Is Miko going to end her turn?
[20:17] ---
    Just 1 life remaining.
[20:19] ---
    So close!
[20:20] ---
    Yikes, that was a close one. All right,
    I'm going to get my groove back in my next turn.
[20:25] ---
    I cast! Electrodeity Festival!
[20:28] ---
    This gives me a second
    opportunity to attack.
[20:31] ---
    What?
[20:33] ---
    This is my last attack.
[20:35] ---
    W-Wait, sweet little Miko!
[20:37] ---
    A cute little girl like you
    shouldn't use such violent attacks!
[20:42] ---
    Be silent!
[21:04] ---
    Game End!
[21:05] ---
    Miko wins!
[21:06] ---
    And she did it without taking any damage!
[21:08] ---
    For share!
[21:09] ---
    A total victory!
[21:12] ---
    Let's get out of here, Bloody-Eyes!
[21:15] ---
    My twin wings will slice apart
    new depths of darkness.
[21:26] ---
    Meow!
[21:28] ---
    Thanks, Miko.
[21:30] ---
    No problem!
[21:31] ---
    I'm just glad that little Garcat is safe.
[21:32] ---
    Not only is he safe...
[21:34] ---
    He's totally back to normal.
[21:36] ---
    Meow-hoo!
[21:37] ---
    We got some great footage, cat!
[21:41] ---
    Miko! What did you think
    of my fighting power?
[21:44] ---
    Just as I thought,
    you're a trustworthy ally.
[21:46] ---
    In that case,
    starting today I'll be your...
[21:48] ---
    I'm her Buddy!
[21:50] ---
    He did a lot of good,
    right out of the gate.
[21:53] ---
    I want to have another
    Buddyfight with Miko!
[21:56] ---
    Lady Amaterasu! It's really
    comfortable inside that cave!
[22:00] ---
    If it's so great, why don't
    you go there yourself?
[22:03] ---
    Both of you, can't you get along?
[22:13] ---
    Ran! Ran! Ga-woo!
[22:17] ---
    Hey, fans! Once again, the two of
    us will introduce a special card!
[22:21] ---
    The card we're introducing
    today is this one!
[22:24] ---
    Radiant Electrodeity, Ameno-Wakahiko.
[22:26] ---
    A size 3 monster with 4000 power,
    10000 defense, and critical of 2.
[22:31] ---
    As long as there's an Electrodeity card in his soul, your
    opponent can't use effects to remove him from your field.
[22:36] ---
    If you pay 1 gauge,
[22:38] ---
    you can draw a card and also reduce one of your
    opponent's cards by 3000 power and defense and 1 critical.
[22:45] ---
    In addition to having a high defense, this monster
    can reduce the power of your opponent's card.
[22:49] ---
    So I recommend that you use
    Possess during your opponent's turn.
[22:52] ---
    In case the opponent uses a link attack to raise their power,
    you should include some defense cards in your deck too.
[22:58] ---
    What did you think of today's card?
[23:00] ---
    I hope you'll all use this card to
    build the most powerful deck ever!
[23:03] ---
    Now then...
[23:04] ---
    We're off to work on our next video,
    so don't forget to... Check us out!
[24:41] ---
    My final opponent in the Preliminaries
    is Senior Banjoe Onizuka!
[24:44] ---
    Huh? It can't be! What's happened
    to you, Senior Onizuka?
[24:48] ---
    Next episode: Yuga and Banjoe!
    A Fiery Fight!
[24:51] ---
    Let's do this, Garga.
[24:52] ---
    Join us for a Buddyfight!
