[00:00] ---
    Oh, we're having
    ramen noodles for dinner.
[00:03] ---
    Thanks for the meal!
[00:05] ---
    I just love these swirly
    naruto fishcakes!
[00:07] ---
    Huh?
[00:07] ---
    Papa!
[00:12] ---
    What the heck was
    that just now?
[00:15] ---
    The greatest Buddyfighter in the world!
[00:18] ---
    The WBC Cup Japan Representative
    Invitational Tournament is in the final stretch,
[00:23] ---
    here at Cho-Taiyo Island, B! Cold!
[00:26] ---
    Your fate is already decided.
[00:29] ---
    What?
[00:30] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu defeated Shura Gokumon
    with an unbelievable deck out!
[00:34] ---
    He became the second
    person to reach 100 wins,
[00:37] ---
    giving him the right to participate
    in the World Championships, B!
[00:43] ---
    But what was that strange light that shone
    from Gaito's body after the fight was won?
[00:49] ---
    What? A sign of the Dragon Force?
    What's that?
[00:52] ---
    Ouch! By the way, the right-hand
    seagull is a father of two.
[00:56] ---
    Buddy...
[00:57] ---
    Meowt!
[02:30] ---
    Kyoya.
[02:31] ---
    You look happy.
[02:33] ---
    Is that so, Azi Dahaka?
[02:36] ---
    For the past few days, you have been
    irritated because of that so-called Doctor Gara.
[02:43] ---
    Have you taken measures
    to deal with him?
[02:45] ---
    I've just laid a trail of clues.
[02:48] ---
    By now, he's probably
    taken the bait.
[02:52] ---
    An anonymous tip?
[02:53] ---
    Yes. The Buddy Police received
    an email from an unknown sender.
[02:59] ---
    I'll read it out loud.
[03:01] ---
    Doctor Gara is on
    Mikazuki Island.
[03:03] ---
    Mikazuki Island?
[03:06] ---
    It's an uninhabited island about
    10 km from Cho-Taiyo Island.
[03:11] ---
    I'll head there and
    investigate right away.
[03:13] ---
    There's one more piece of
    information I'd like you to hear.
[03:16] ---
    All of the uninhabited islands in the
    area, including Cho-Taiyo Island,
[03:19] ---
    are the property of
    Gaen Financial Group,
[03:21] ---
    according to the Buddy Police's research.
[03:23] ---
    Gaen Financial Group?
[03:25] ---
    Of course, Mikazuki Island is, too.
[03:29] ---
    It can't be.
[03:30] ---
    Could this anonymous tip be from...
[03:35] ---
    Wow! Bal Saucer Over Rush!
[03:40] ---
    Do you think Doctor Gara
    is really on Mikazuki Island?
[03:43] ---
    He's there.
[03:44] ---
    This information was
    provided by Kyoya Gaen.
[03:47] ---
    How can you be so sure?
[03:50] ---
    I don't know.
[03:51] ---
    But I'm sure that
    Bal is there, too.
[03:58] ---
    Gao?
[04:01] ---
    You caught me.
[04:02] ---
    Never mind that!
[04:03] ---
    Did you just say Doctor Gara
    and Bal are together?
[04:06] ---
    Yeah.
[04:09] ---
    How long are you
    going to keep this up?
[04:12] ---
    Looks like I'm going to have
    to use drastic measures!
[04:16] ---
    I can see it now!
[04:24] ---
    Click!
[04:30] ---
    Bal...
[04:33] ---
    There's only one building
    on Mikazuki Island.
[04:35] ---
    It's officially Gaen Financial
    Group's recreational facility,
[04:38] ---
    but I'm sure that's
    just camouflage.
[04:40] ---
    You think Bal might be there.
[04:43] ---
    There it is!
[04:47] ---
    There's a light on.
[04:49] ---
    Bal could be there!
[04:50] ---
    Wait, Gao!
[04:53] ---
    They've already sniffed me out!
[04:57] ---
    Oh...
[04:58] ---
    If I take these guys hostage, little Bal
    might finally come out of his shell.
[05:03] ---
    Just you wait.
[05:04] ---
    I'll show you something
    that should get your attention.
[05:09] ---
    Bal?
[05:15] ---
    Zodiac!
[05:17] ---
    Gravity Rest!
[05:27] ---
    Th-This is Gravity Rest!
[05:30] ---
    Zodiac!
[05:32] ---
    Doctor Gara...
[05:35] ---
    Bal...
[05:37] ---
    Where is Bal?
[05:39] ---
    You should worry about yourself
    before you worry about your Buddy.
[05:43] ---
    Your Buddy will get an eyeful of you
    crawling on the ground like a worm.
[05:50] ---
    Can you see this, little Bal?
[05:52] ---
    Gao! Tasuku! Jack!
[05:55] ---
    If you don't hurry up and get out of that
    shell, I'll take these guys apart first.
[06:00] ---
    If you do anything bad to Gao and his friends...
    Bal won't let you get away with it, bal!
[06:04] ---
    Well then...
[06:06] ---
    Who should I take apart first?
[06:09] ---
    Stop it, bal!
[06:11] ---
    From this angle, I won't miss, even with
    Gravity Rest's supergravity effect.
[06:17] ---
    Don't worry. As soon as I've taken you
    guys apart, I'll take apart little Bal too.
[06:25] ---
    If you lay one finger on Bal...
[06:29] ---
    I'll make you pay!
[06:35] ---
    There's no way a human can
    move when under Gravity Rest!
[06:41] ---
    Bal is...
[06:43] ---
    My Buddy!
[06:45] ---
    Gao...
[06:47] ---
    Where is Bal?
[06:50] ---
    Doctor Gara!
[06:52] ---
    Gao!
[06:54] ---
    Bal is here, bal!
[07:00] ---
    This light again?
[07:02] ---
    Doctor Gara!
[07:03] ---
    Doctor Gara!
[07:07] ---
    That's...
[07:08] ---
    Gao!
[07:09] ---
    What?
[07:11] ---
    Zodiac!
[07:17] ---
    Finally, the Dragon Force
    has come to Gao Mikado as well.
[07:20] ---
    And this is already more
    powerful than a mere sign.
[07:27] ---
    Gao! Are you all right?
[07:29] ---
    Never mind me, we have
    to save Bal. He's nearby!
[07:32] ---
    I found little Bal!
[07:35] ---
    You're...
[07:36] ---
    Kakeru Futaboshi!
[07:38] ---
    Yes.
[07:39] ---
    I heard that little Bal had gone missing,
    so I've been searching for him ever since.
[07:43] ---
    Bal!
[07:46] ---
    Now, Bal...
[07:50] ---
    I'm glad! I'm so glad!
[07:53] ---
    Oops. How clumsy of me.
[07:57] ---
    Bal.
[07:58] ---
    Bal?
[08:00] ---
    Gao? This isn't a dream, is it, bal?
[08:04] ---
    Ouch! It hurts, bal!
[08:07] ---
    Of course!
    This is no dream!
[08:10] ---
    Gao! Gao came after all, bal!
[08:18] ---
    Gao, are you crying, bal?
[08:20] ---
    Do you have any idea
    how worried I was?
[08:26] ---
    What a moving reunion!
[08:28] ---
    Gao, that hurts, bal!
[08:30] ---
    Sorry. I'm just so happy
    to have you back!
[08:36] ---
    Kakeru Futaboshi.
[08:37] ---
    What is it?
[08:38] ---
    Aren't you really Doctor Gara?
[08:42] ---
    What are you saying,
    Senior Tasuku?
[08:44] ---
    That's right, bal!
[08:45] ---
    Doctor Kakeru isn't
    Doctor Gara, bal.
[08:49] ---
    Then how did you know
    that Bal was here?
[08:52] ---
    Well...
[08:53] ---
    That is...
[08:55] ---
    Doctor Kakeru?
[08:57] ---
    The truth is, Doctor Gara
    threatened me!
[09:01] ---
    He said he'd do terrible things
    to me if I didn't obey him!
[09:06] ---
    I was so scared.
[09:08] ---
    I'm sorry.
[09:10] ---
    At first, he said he just
    wanted to get a sample.
[09:15] ---
    But in the end, he even
    made me kidnap little Bal.
[09:20] ---
    But I really wanted to save little Bal,
    so I kept waiting for a chance to rescue him.
[09:26] ---
    Why didn't you report any
    of this to the Buddy Police?
[09:29] ---
    Jack!
[09:30] ---
    Please don't be mad
    at Doctor Kakeru, bal.
[09:33] ---
    Kakeru Futaboshi and Doctor Gara
    are one and the same!
[09:37] ---
    That's the only thing
    that makes sense.
[09:39] ---
    Wait, Senior Tasuku!
[09:41] ---
    According to Cerberus, the guy who took
    Bal had a different scent than Doctor Gara.
[09:47] ---
    Gao...
[09:49] ---
    So we can't say for certain that Doctor Kakeru
    and Doctor Gara are the same person.
[09:56] ---
    Am I off the suspect list now?
[09:58] ---
    Thank you, Doctor Kakeru!
[10:00] ---
    Thanks for rescuing Bal!
[10:03] ---
    You don't need to thank me.
[10:05] ---
    I may have been under duress,
    but I still helped Doctor Gara.
[10:11] ---
    I'm really sorry, little Bal.
[10:13] ---
    It's fine, bal.
[10:15] ---
    Doctor Gara is the bad one, bal!
[10:22] ---
    What?
[10:23] ---
    What did you just say,
    Doctor Kakeru?
[10:26] ---
    The tournament organizers are saying that
    little Bal should withdraw immediately.
[10:30] ---
    What's withdraw, bal?
[10:32] ---
    It means you can't fight in
    the WBC Cup anymore.
[10:35] ---
    What! C-C-Can't...
[10:38] ---
    Doctor Kakeru,
    that's not okay, bal!
[10:40] ---
    Can't we do anything about this?
[10:42] ---
    From what I've heard...
[10:45] ---
    The tournament's official Monster Doctors
    are insisting that Bal should
[10:48] ---
    undergo examinations as soon as possible
    to check up on every part of him.
[10:55] ---
    Doctor's orders, huh.
[10:57] ---
    I guess you're going
    to have to withdraw.
[11:01] ---
    Little Bal. It's really too
    bad about this year, but...
[11:04] ---
    There's nothing wrong
    with Bal's body, bal!
[11:07] ---
    Bal, bal, bal!
    Bal, bal, bal!
[11:10] ---
    See? Totally fine, bal...
[11:16] ---
    Bal!
[11:17] ---
    You see? You shouldn't overexert yourself.
[11:20] ---
    Don't wanna withdraw, bal!
[11:22] ---
    Bal is gonna be Buddy
    Champions with Gao, bal!
[11:25] ---
    -Bal...
    -No withdraw, bal!
[11:27] ---
    -Want to fight, bal!
    -Then, do you want to try fighting me?
[11:30] ---
    Huh?
[11:31] ---
    I'll see for myself whether little Bal is healthy
    enough to continue fighting in this tournament.
[11:36] ---
    If he's fine, I'll try talking to
    the organizers again.
[11:39] ---
    All right!
[11:42] ---
    But if you should lose to me,
    you have to withdraw.
[11:46] ---
    Okay?
[11:48] ---
    You haven't forgotten, have you?
[11:50] ---
    You two have lost to
    me and Zodiac before.
[11:54] ---
    Do you still want to fight?
[11:56] ---
    Zodiac! Attack Bal in the center!
[11:59] ---
    Bal!
[12:02] ---
    Bal!
[12:04] ---
    Bal bal bal bal!
[12:06] ---
    Bal!
[12:11] ---
    When Zodiac is used with
    a Legend World deck, he gains Penetrate.
[12:15] ---
    What?
[12:19] ---
    Game End.
    Winner, Kakeru Futaboshi!
[12:23] ---
    Of course I haven't forgotten.
[12:25] ---
    Are you up for it, Bal?
[12:28] ---
    Of course, bal!
[12:29] ---
    All right! Let's fight!
[12:39] ---
    I'm not going easy on you.
[12:41] ---
    I know.
[12:43] ---
    This time, we'll win, bal!
[12:45] ---
    O' deity of guidance that
    presides over the stars…
[12:48] ---
    Show me the path towards
    worlds yet unseen!
[12:51] ---
    Luminize, Star Form Guidepost!
[12:54] ---
    Rise, sun!
[12:55] ---
    Burn, sun!
[12:58] ---
    Luminize!
    Scorching Sun Dragon!
[13:02] ---
    Buddy...fight!
[13:04] ---
    Raise the flag!
[13:06] ---
    Legend World!
[13:08] ---
    Dragon World!
[13:11] ---
    So Doctor Kakeru
    has the first move.
[13:14] ---
    Fighting at a time like this?
[13:16] ---
    Won't anyone use
    their common sense?
[13:22] ---
    Three cheers for
    Doctor Kakeru!
[13:25] ---
    Good luck! Do your best!
    Doctor Kakeru!
[13:28] ---
    Great, the loudmouth is back.
[13:31] ---
    Gemios, attack the fighter!
[13:33] ---
    Our...
[13:34] ---
    Our...
[13:35] ---
    Attack!
[13:37] ---
    Looking good! Doing great!
    Doctor Kakeru!
[13:40] ---
    Meow!
[13:41] ---
    My turn is over.
[13:43] ---
    Now it's your turn, Gao! Little Bal!
[13:46] ---
    We're gonna go full throttle,
    right from the start!
[13:49] ---
    Of course, bal!
[13:50] ---
    My turn!
[13:55] ---
    Draw!
[13:58] ---
    Charge and draw!
[14:00] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and
    Buddy call to the right!
[14:04] ---
    Bal, bal!
[14:06] ---
    Bal will try his best, bal!
[14:08] ---
    I call Burning Rapier Dragon to the left!
[14:12] ---
    Now, let us duel quickly.
[14:15] ---
    I equip!
[14:16] ---
    Bal Knuckle!
[14:17] ---
    Bal! Attack Aquario!
[14:20] ---
    Leave it to Bal, bal!
[14:23] ---
    Penetrate attack, bal!
[14:27] ---
    Here we go, Burning Rapier!
[14:29] ---
    Right!
[14:31] ---
    When I do a link attack with
    Burning Rapier, I can draw 1 card!
[14:34] ---
    Bal Knuckle!
[14:35] ---
    Burning Fend!
[14:38] ---
    Doctor Kakeru!
[14:39] ---
    He's just getting started!
[14:42] ---
    My turn!
[14:43] ---
    Draw!
[14:44] ---
    Charge and draw!
[14:47] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and 1 life to equip!
[14:50] ---
    Star Pole Sword, Estrela!
[14:52] ---
    I pay 2 gauge and
    Buddy call to the center!
[14:56] ---
    The deity of guidance who
    presides over the stars!
[14:59] ---
    Star Deity Dragon, Zodiac!
[15:01] ---
    I'm sorry, but little Bal will have to
    return to your hand cards!
[15:04] ---
    What?
[15:06] ---
    Scales of Inequality!
[15:08] ---
    Bal?
[15:09] ---
    Bal's body is...
[15:12] ---
    Returned to the hand cards, bal.
[15:14] ---
    It's Libra Starsentinel,
    Leebra's ability!
[15:17] ---
    Now, let's go, Leebra!
[15:20] ---
    Attack Burning Rapier!
[15:27] ---
    Attack the fighter!
[15:29] ---
    Here we go!
[15:29] ---
    Okay!
[15:33] ---
    Double Attack!
[15:36] ---
    Your life...
[15:36] ---
    Is ours!
[15:37] ---
    Doctor Kakeru's surge attack!
[15:39] ---
    Now Gao's life points will be...
[15:42] ---
    I've got no other choice.
[15:43] ---
    I cast! Green Dragon Shield!
[15:45] ---
    Our Double Attack...
[15:47] ---
    Has been nullified!
[15:48] ---
    But I still have Zodiac,
    and my Estrela!
[15:55] ---
    This is bad.
[15:56] ---
    Yes. And Doctor Kakeru also has his final
    weapon, the Impact Monster Block!
[16:01] ---
    Oh no!
[16:02] ---
    Gao has once again called Bal Dragon,
    who had returned to his hand cards, B!
[16:08] ---
    This time, Bal will try
    his best for sure, bal!
[16:10] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and discard one hand
    card to activate Zodiac's ability!
[16:15] ---
    Now kneel!
    Gravity Rest!
[16:20] ---
    Bal is gonna attack, bal...
[16:22] ---
    It's no use.
[16:24] ---
    There's no way of
    escaping Gravity Rest.
[16:26] ---
    Due to the discarded Alwidol's effect,
    I gain 1 gauge and draw 1 card!
[16:30] ---
    Can't take any more...bal...
[16:32] ---
    I cast! Bal Support!
[16:34] ---
    I gain 2 gauge, and...
[16:36] ---
    Regain life, bal...
[16:38] ---
    I call Mera Blade Dragon to the left!
[16:40] ---
    Go ahead and attack Leebra!
[16:41] ---
    Mera!
[16:42] ---
    Mera!
[16:48] ---
    I cast!
[16:48] ---
    Divine Guidance! I nullify your attack
    and gain 1 life and 1 gauge!
[16:54] ---
    Now Gao's turn is over!
[16:56] ---
    This is where Doctor Kakeru's
    onslaught of attacks strikes home!
[16:59] ---
    Oh, I'm sleepy...
[17:01] ---
    Are you all right?
[17:02] ---
    I haven't been
    sleeping well lately...
[17:04] ---
    Don't push yourself too hard.
[17:05] ---
    No! You mustn't!
[17:06] ---
    If you spray oxygen on me,
    it speeds up my decomposition...
[17:09] ---
    And makes me sleepy
    in a bad way...
[17:11] ---
    So please stop...
[17:15] ---
    Once again, I call Leebra to the left!
[17:18] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and
    activate Leebra's ability!
[17:21] ---
    Don't tell me...Not again!
[17:23] ---
    Return Bal Dragon to
    Gao's hand cards!
[17:26] ---
    Don't wanna, bal!
[17:29] ---
    Bal wants to fight
    more with Gao, bal!
[17:32] ---
    Bal doesn't wanna withdraw, bal!
[17:34] ---
    Bal...
[17:35] ---
    I'm coming at you, Gao!
[17:38] ---
    First, Leebra! Gemios!
[17:42] ---
    And now, our...
[17:43] ---
    Double Attack!
[17:47] ---
    Zodiac!
[17:50] ---
    I cast! Blue Dragon Shield!
[17:52] ---
    Estrela has a critical of 1.
[17:54] ---
    So I can't finish him off.
[17:56] ---
    In that case...
[17:58] ---
    Mera-curses!
[18:01] ---
    My turn is over.
[18:02] ---
    Now, it's your turn!
[18:06] ---
    Gao.
[18:07] ---
    Gao!
[18:08] ---
    Bal?
[18:13] ---
    Bal wants to fight lots
    and lots more with Gao, bal!
[18:17] ---
    But with my current deck, no matter what
    card I draw, it'll be blocked by Zodiac.
[18:22] ---
    It's okay, bal!
[18:23] ---
    Huh?
[18:24] ---
    That card...
[18:26] ---
    Did you make another one?
[18:27] ---
    That's right, bal!
[18:28] ---
    When Gao got so mad at
    Doctor Gara, just for Bal...
[18:32] ---
    Bal was super-happy, bal!
[18:33] ---
    That's when this card
    was created, bal.
[18:35] ---
    Bal...
[18:37] ---
    Gao is sure to win
    with this card, bal.
[18:40] ---
    It's true. If we lose here and now, all of
    the hard work we did would be for nothing.
[18:46] ---
    Bal is gonna become
    Buddy Champions with Gao, bal!
[18:51] ---
    Yeah! Let's definitely
    become champions, Bal!
[18:54] ---
    My turn!
[18:57] ---
    Draw!
[18:58] ---
    Charge and draw!
[19:04] ---
    No matter what monster you draw,
    it'll be no use against my Zodiac!
[19:08] ---
    Bal, I'm counting on you!
[19:10] ---
    Leave it to Bal, bal!
[19:12] ---
    Gao!
[19:13] ---
    Bal is going to be
    blocked by Zodiac again!
[19:16] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and discard 1 hand
    card to activate Zodiac's ability!
[19:21] ---
    Kneel! Gravity Rest!
[19:26] ---
    Bal is gonna brace himself, bal!
[19:28] ---
    I cast! Bal Support!
[19:30] ---
    I increase gauge by 2, and...
[19:32] ---
    Regain life, bal!
[19:33] ---
    I call Mera Blade to the left!
[19:35] ---
    Now join me in a link attack!
[19:41] ---
    Zodiac has Soulguard!
[19:45] ---
    Final Phase!
[19:47] ---
    You haven't forgotten, have you?
[19:49] ---
    I have an Impact Monster Block!
[19:52] ---
    Impact Call!
[19:54] ---
    I pay 2 gauge and
    transform Bal Dragon...
[19:56] ---
    Into an Impact Monster!
[20:00] ---
    I activate Zodiac's ability!
[20:03] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and
    discard 1 hand card!
[20:06] ---
    Kneel! Gravity Rest!
[20:12] ---
    Bal...
[20:13] ---
    Will try his super-super best, bal!
[20:16] ---
    Bal is now a size 2 monster with 11000 power,
    6000 defense, and a critical of 1!
[20:22] ---
    Bal Saucer Over Rush!
[20:29] ---
    That can't be!
[20:30] ---
    He broke through
    the Impact Monster Block?
[20:33] ---
    A new Impact Monster!
[20:35] ---
    Amazing!
[20:36] ---
    So Bal has gained
    another new power.
[20:39] ---
    Penetrate, bal!
[20:44] ---
    Bal and I are going
    to continue fighting!
[20:47] ---
    And!
[20:48] ---
    We're gonna become
    Buddy Champions, bal!
[20:53] ---
    You surprised me, little Bal.
[20:55] ---
    An Impact Monster that could
    overpower Zodiac's Gravity Rest...
[20:58] ---
    But your turn is over now.
[21:03] ---
    Doctor Kakeru!
[21:04] ---
    Bal's attack isn't over yet!
[21:07] ---
    If I pay 1 gauge, Bal can attack again,
    as many times as I want!
[21:12] ---
    What?
[21:14] ---
    Bal!
[21:17] ---
    Gao has 2 gauge left.
    He can do it!
[21:21] ---
    Bal!
[21:25] ---
    This will finish you, bal!
[21:33] ---
    All right! Thank you very much!
[21:36] ---
    Thank you very much, bal!
[21:40] ---
    I hope that you can become
    Buddy Champions.
[21:43] ---
    Then...
[21:44] ---
    Of course. You beat me, after all.
[21:47] ---
    I'll be sure to convince
    the organizers.
[21:50] ---
    Please do... bal...
[21:52] ---
    H-Hey! Bal!
[21:55] ---
    Bal's hungry, bal.
[22:01] ---
    The organizers have officially given permission
    for you to participate in the tournament.
[22:05] ---
    All right!
[22:06] ---
    You should take that
    medication along with your pizza.
[22:10] ---
    Thank you, Doctor Kakeru, bal!
[22:16] ---
    Gao.
[22:17] ---
    Huh?
[22:18] ---
    It's almost sunrise.
[22:19] ---
    You should rest too.
[22:22] ---
    Yeah. After all, we need to win that last
    ticket to the World Championships.
[22:29] ---
    We're gonna reach 100 wins
    before anyone else, bal!
[22:32] ---
    And we'll tune up the deck to maximize
    the power of this new Impact Monster!
[22:37] ---
    Sounds good!
[22:38] ---
    I'm counting on you!
[22:39] ---
    Leave it to us!
[22:47] ---
    Please do try your best.
[22:51] ---
    Little Bal.
[22:54] ---
    Today's winning card!
[22:57] ---
    Bal Dragon, Bal Saucer Over Rush!
[23:00] ---
    When you have a Sun Dragon item equipped,
    you can attack again every time you pay 1 gauge!
[23:06] ---
    Dream big and try for ten attacks, bal!
[24:40] ---
    Only one participation ticket left
    for the World Championships!
[24:44] ---
    We need to reach 100 wins
    before anyone else, bal!
[24:47] ---
    Hurry, bal!
[24:48] ---
    Next episode: Go, Go!
    Bal's Surging Steady Advance!
