[00:00] ---
    The greatest
    Buddyfighter in the world!
[00:03] ---
    The WBC Cup Japan Representative
    Invitational Tournament is in the final stretch, B! Cold!
[00:11] ---
    Gao Mikado is just one win away from
    qualifying for the World Championships!
[00:15] ---
    Standing in his way is our
    very own Doctor Kakeru Futaboshi!
[00:19] ---
    But what a twist!
[00:23] ---
    What are you saying, Bal?
[00:25] ---
    Sounds like the drugs
    are finally kicking in.
[00:30] ---
    What have you
    done to Bal?
[00:33] ---
    Don't look so scary.
[00:36] ---
    Shall I give you
    some candy?
[00:38] ---
    Answer the question!
[00:40] ---
    This candy is custom-made.
[00:45] ---
    It has a special ingredient.
[00:48] ---
    While you're licking it, your metabolic
    system functions differently than normal.
[00:52] ---
    In other words...
[00:55] ---
    Changing my scent...
[00:57] ---
    Is as easy as can be...
[01:00] ---
    For the great Doctor Gara!
[01:03] ---
    Unbelievable! Doctor Kakeru was
    actually the evil scientist, Doctor Gara, B!
[01:11] ---
    Time for a tearful Buddy...
[01:13] ---
    Meowt!
[02:46] ---
    Gao Mikado's participation in
    the World Championships depends on this battle!
[02:50] ---
    However, Kakeru Futaboshi, or rather,
    Doctor Gara, is his opponent.
[02:57] ---
    The tournament organizers have ruled
    that the Buddyfight must go on!
[03:00] ---
    Unfortunately for me...
[03:02] ---
    I have no choice but to
    obey their ruling!
[03:05] ---
    Gao! This is the Dragon Force!
[03:12] ---
    There's no way that drug could break
    the bond between Bal and me!
[03:17] ---
    I'm going to defeat you,
    and save Bal too!
[03:20] ---
    Rise, sun!
[03:22] ---
    Burn, sun!
[03:24] ---
    Luminize!
    Scorching Sun Dragon!
[03:29] ---
    You're so cruel.
[03:31] ---
    You're going to let your Buddy
    attack innocent people?
[03:34] ---
    Oh well. In the end,
    I'm the one who's going to win.
[03:38] ---
    Kneel, planetary scrap!
[03:40] ---
    Be erased beyond dimensions!
[03:43] ---
    Luminize, Cosmo Elimination!
[03:47] ---
    Buddy...fight!
[03:49] ---
    Raise the flag!
[03:51] ---
    Dragon World!
[03:53] ---
    Star Dragon World!
[03:56] ---
    Gao Mikado calls
    three Sun Dragons in a row!
[04:00] ---
    He deals 2 damage to Gara
    and his turn ends!
[04:05] ---
    I equip!
    Legblade Rejecter!
[04:07] ---
    I Buddy call Star Deity Dragon,
    Zodiac, to the right!
[04:11] ---
    Zodiac! Attack the fighter!
[04:14] ---
    When Zodiac is a Star Dragon World monster,
    its ability increases its critical by 1.
[04:18] ---
    As a result,
    Gao Mikado takes 3 damage!
[04:21] ---
    It's got that Impact Monster Block
    called Gravity Rest!
[04:26] ---
    But Bal's new Impact Monster
    can counter that!
[04:33] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and
    1 life and equip!
[04:36] ---
    Sun Fist, Balguard!
[04:38] ---
    Here we go!
[04:39] ---
    Move!
[04:41] ---
    What?
[04:43] ---
    You see, when I use Zodiac in Star Dragon
    World, it gains the Move ability!
[04:50] ---
    But...
[04:51] ---
    When Explosive Bullet Dragon, Ultrabomb
    does a link attack with another Sun Dragon...
[04:57] ---
    I can pay 1 gauge...
[04:59] ---
    To destroy my opponent's
    center monster!
[05:03] ---
    Ultrabomb!
[05:05] ---
    Soulguard, activate!
[05:09] ---
    I cast! Speculight Ring!
[05:12] ---
    This raises Zodiac's defense,
    and gives it Counterattack!
[05:16] ---
    Oh my bomb!
[05:20] ---
    Gao's Balguard attack was
    nullified by a counter spell.
[05:24] ---
    Gara regains one life!
[05:26] ---
    I have a bad feeling about this.
[05:29] ---
    I can't do this anymore, B!
[05:32] ---
    I've been betrayed
    by Doctor Kakeru.
[05:36] ---
    I no longer have faith in anything!
[05:39] ---
    Meow meow.
[05:41] ---
    I cast! Future Astrology!
[05:44] ---
    If I have Zodiac on my field,
    I can draw 2 cards!
[05:47] ---
    It's showtime,
    Dragoneraser, Hind Lance!
[05:53] ---
    Crossnize!
[06:01] ---
    Now you losers can't do anything.
[06:04] ---
    I call Discarnea to the left!
[06:07] ---
    Bal...bal!
[06:09] ---
    Bal!
[06:10] ---
    Calm down, Bal!
[06:13] ---
    Shut up!
[06:16] ---
    Bal...
[06:19] ---
    This is no time to be distracted!
[06:25] ---
    Zodiac, follow him!
[06:26] ---
    Vertical Ray!
[06:29] ---
    I cast!
[06:30] ---
    Sun Dragon Shield!
[06:34] ---
    Zodiac's attack has been blocked!
[06:36] ---
    And now it's Gao's turn, but...
[06:40] ---
    Let Bal fight!
[06:42] ---
    Let Bal fight!
[06:44] ---
    Let Bal fight!
[06:45] ---
    Right now, fighting is the only thing
    that Bal can think about.
[06:49] ---
    He's lost almost all of his reason!
[06:51] ---
    Then...is he losing his memories, too?
[06:54] ---
    Calm down, Bal!
[06:56] ---
    You know who I am, right?
[07:00] ---
    G...G...
[07:04] ---
    Bal! Bal! Bal!
[07:06] ---
    Bal wants to fight, bal!
[07:08] ---
    He's even forgotten my name.
[07:12] ---
    Do you get it now?
[07:14] ---
    Even if you win, all you'll do is
    unleash an uncontrollable freak!
[07:21] ---
    Give up already!
[07:24] ---
    I promised Bal.
[07:27] ---
    That we'd become
    Buddy Champions together!
[07:31] ---
    Draw!
[07:34] ---
    Charge and draw!
[07:36] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and
    Buddy call to the right!
[07:39] ---
    Bal...
[07:41] ---
    Bal!
[07:43] ---
    Gao Mikado does a Buddy call!
[07:45] ---
    I'm going to keep my promise to Bal,
    no matter what!
[07:50] ---
    Even if he doesn't remember it anymore!
[07:53] ---
    Gao...
[07:55] ---
    Try your best, Bal! Bal! Bal!
[08:00] ---
    It's no use.
[08:02] ---
    Zodiac's ability, activate!
[08:04] ---
    Kneel! Gravity Rest!
[08:13] ---
    Gao Mikado calls Black Dot, but once again
    his attack is blocked by Gravity Rest!
[08:20] ---
    He uses a spell to increase his gauge and
    hand cards, but Zodiac moves to the center!
[08:24] ---
    Then I'll use Balguard to...
[08:27] ---
    I cast!
[08:29] ---
    Mars Barrier!
[08:34] ---
    This attack misses its mark as well!
[08:36] ---
    No. We still have Bal Saucer Over Rush!
[08:40] ---
    I'll use this to finish him off!
[08:43] ---
    Bal...
[08:45] ---
    Final Phase!
[08:55] ---
    M-My body...
[08:57] ---
    I can't move!
[09:01] ---
    How pitiful you are, Gao Mikado!
[09:04] ---
    Wh-What in the world is happening?
[09:08] ---
    As long as Hind Lance is Crossnized with Zodiac,
    you can't do a thing during Final Phase!
[09:15] ---
    Everything is frozen!
[09:19] ---
    There is zero chance of you winning.
[09:25] ---
    Gao Mikado is blocked on all fronts!
[09:28] ---
    He uses Balguard to bravely defend
    Black Dot in his center position,
[09:32] ---
    but the next attack from
    Discarnea blasts through!
[09:34] ---
    And Zodiac, who has been
    lying in wait, advances!
[09:37] ---
    Vertical Ray!
[09:40] ---
    Gao Mikado just barely makes
    it with 2 life remaining!
[09:44] ---
    However!
[09:46] ---
    The only monster left on
    his field is Bal Dragon!
[09:48] ---
    It seems impossible for
    him to turn the tables!
[09:52] ---
    Of course it's impossible!
[09:54] ---
    Zodiac was created by the most brilliant
    super-genius of this century, the great Doctor Gara...
[09:58] ---
    ...To be the greatest of all monsters!
[10:01] ---
    The most powerful Dual Monster in history!
[10:06] ---
    My turn!
[10:07] ---
    What? You want to keep fighting?
[10:11] ---
    Even you must realize that there's
    no way you can win.
[10:14] ---
    It's pointless to continue fighting!
[10:17] ---
    B-Baku...
[10:19] ---
    Now that he can't use Final Phase...
[10:22] ---
    Turning the tables with
    his current deck is impossible.
[10:24] ---
    I'm sorry, Gao!
[10:26] ---
    It can't be!
[10:33] ---
    G-Gao...
[10:38] ---
    Gao...
[10:40] ---
    Gao...
[10:43] ---
    Bal?
[10:45] ---
    Together...
[10:47] ---
    We'll be Buddy Champions...
[10:57] ---
    So his reason and
    memories are finally gone.
[11:06] ---
    Bal...
[11:07] ---
    Why?
[11:09] ---
    Let's start intensive training now, bal!
[11:14] ---
    Bal wants to become Buddy Champion
    together with Gao, bal!
[11:19] ---
    Bal!
[11:19] ---
    Bal!
[11:21] ---
    Bal!
[11:22] ---
    If you want to become Buddy Champions,
    bring forth every last bit of strength in yourself!
[11:28] ---
    Bal...
[11:30] ---
    Bal will...
[11:32] ---
    Bal will...
[11:35] ---
    Take this!
[11:37] ---
    Bal will become a big monster, bal!
[11:45] ---
    Bal!
[11:50] ---
    Bal wants to fight lots and
    lots more with Gao, bal!
[11:54] ---
    But with my current deck, no matter what
    card I draw, it'll be blocked by Zodiac.
[11:59] ---
    It's okay, bal!
[12:01] ---
    Huh?
[12:02] ---
    That card...
[12:03] ---
    Did you make another one?
[12:04] ---
    That's right, bal!
[12:05] ---
    When Gao got so mad
    at Doctor Gara, just for Bal...
[12:09] ---
    Bal was super-happy, bal!
[12:10] ---
    That's when this card was created, bal.
[12:13] ---
    Bal...
[12:14] ---
    Gao is sure to win with this card, bal.
[12:17] ---
    It's true. If we lose here and now, all of
    the hard work we did would be for nothing.
[12:24] ---
    Bal is gonna become
    Buddy Champions with Gao, bal!
[12:29] ---
    I thought we were going to become
    Buddy Champions together!
[12:35] ---
    How is this possible!
[12:38] ---
    Unforgivable...
[12:39] ---
    I'll never forgive you!
[12:42] ---
    You lied to us, and you did
    awful things to Bal.
[12:46] ---
    And now you're taking away his
    memories and his reason!
[12:49] ---
    I won't forgive you!
[12:51] ---
    I won't forgive you!
[12:52] ---
    I'll never forgive you!
[12:53] ---
    Doctor Gara!
[13:02] ---
    What is this, turtle?
[13:04] ---
    Baku, the ground is...
[13:06] ---
    It's glowing?
[13:07] ---
    The whole island is glowing, B!
[13:09] ---
    Meow?
[13:25] ---
    Give him back.
[13:26] ---
    Give me back my Bal!
[13:28] ---
    My Buddy.
[13:29] ---
    My best friend.
[13:31] ---
    Dragon of the Sun, Bal Dragon!
[13:34] ---
    Turn him back to normal!
[13:46] ---
    Just what does he think he's doing?
[13:52] ---
    Dragon Force! Release!
[13:57] ---
    Did he say Dragon Force?
[13:59] ---
    Gao, what's with your new look?
[14:04] ---
    G-Gao?
[14:06] ---
    He's flying?
[14:09] ---
    What the heck is that?
[14:15] ---
    I've been waiting a long time for this.
[14:19] ---
    I call Mera Blade Dragon to the left!
[14:23] ---
    Mera!
[14:25] ---
    Take this! My rage!
[14:28] ---
    Mera!
[14:30] ---
    Move!
[14:31] ---
    I cast! Divine Guidance!
[14:37] ---
    Bal...
[14:39] ---
    Come to your senses, Bal!
[14:41] ---
    Do a link attack with me!
[14:45] ---
    Bal!
[14:49] ---
    Bal!
[14:55] ---
    G...Gao...
[14:59] ---
    What? What's this blinding light?
[15:15] ---
    Bal is full of energy, bal!
[15:17] ---
    Bal?
[15:19] ---
    Gao!
[15:20] ---
    Bal!
[15:23] ---
    Th-That's impossible!
[15:25] ---
    I was sure that he'd totally lost all
    of his memories and reason.
[15:28] ---
    How is this happening?
[15:31] ---
    Gao overpowered your drugs, bal!
[15:34] ---
    This is because of that power
    that Kyoya was seeking.
[15:38] ---
    I can't believe it exists!
[15:42] ---
    Our rage!
[15:44] ---
    Take it, bal!
[15:45] ---
    I cast! Divine Guidance!
[15:51] ---
    When Dragon Force is used in
    a link attack with a Sun Dragon,
[15:54] ---
    the player can attack
    as many times as they like!
[15:57] ---
    Gao, can you give it
    one more shot, bal?
[15:59] ---
    Sure!
[16:06] ---
    Take this!
[16:07] ---
    Gao Mikado destroys Zodiac!
[16:11] ---
    The crossnized Hind Lance is
    sent to the drop zone!
[16:15] ---
    Now he can do an Impact Call!
[16:17] ---
    Final Phase!
[16:21] ---
    Impact Call!
[16:23] ---
    I pay 2 gauge to transform Bal into...
[16:26] ---
    An Impact Monster!
[16:38] ---
    So what?
[16:40] ---
    The great Doctor Gara has 12 life!
[16:43] ---
    Whatever you do now, it won't matter!
[16:45] ---
    No. If he has that spell in his hand cards,
    he can attack using Dragon Force one more time!
[16:51] ---
    I cast! Bal Exciting.
[16:56] ---
    Bal will try his super-super-best!
[16:59] ---
    Bal is now a size 2 monster with 11000 power,
    6000 defense, and a critical of 1!
[17:05] ---
    Bal Saucer Over Rush!
[17:13] ---
    Penetrate, bal!
[17:17] ---
    Our linked attack...
[17:24] ---
    Is going to continue, bal!
[17:29] ---
    Bal!
[17:31] ---
    Bal!
[17:33] ---
    Let's finish him!
[17:38] ---
    They did it!
[17:42] ---
    So the Bal Dragon and Dragon Force
    combination creates an attack this powerful...
[17:49] ---
    Dammit...
[17:51] ---
    Game End!
    Winner, Gao Mikado!
[17:54] ---
    All right!
[17:56] ---
    Thank you very much!
[17:58] ---
    Gao Mikado won a brilliant victory over
    Kakeru Futaboshi, or rather, Doctor Gara!
[18:03] ---
    He's the third person to reach 100 wins!
[18:06] ---
    He is now one of
    the Japan Representatives!
[18:09] ---
    He did it!
[18:10] ---
    He's going to
    the World Championships!
[18:12] ---
    Congratulations, Gao! Bal!
[18:15] ---
    You done good!
[18:17] ---
    As long as I have Zodiac,
    I can try again and again!
[18:20] ---
    Next time, I'll create
    the ultimate monster for sure!
[18:23] ---
    Doctor Gara!
[18:26] ---
    Huh?
[18:28] ---
    We are the Buddy Police.
[18:30] ---
    You are charged with a breach of the
    Buddy Monster management laws!
[18:33] ---
    You're under arrest!
[18:35] ---
    You're going to arrest
    the great Doctor Gara?
[18:44] ---
    What?
[18:45] ---
    Stop your useless struggling, Doctor Gara!
[18:50] ---
    You'll pay for this, Tasuku Ryuenji!
[18:56] ---
    This will finish you!
[19:03] ---
    What was that?
[19:06] ---
    As of this moment,
    the WBC Cup Japan Tournament is over!
[19:13] ---
    I couldn't get that last win...
[19:16] ---
    So I was destined not to lose.
[19:21] ---
    That's how it is!
[19:23] ---
    The fact that I couldn't
    win is destiny too!
[19:25] ---
    It's a destiny festival!
[19:37] ---
    Gaito. The third Japan
    Representative is Gao Mikado.
[19:41] ---
    That has nothing to do with me.
[19:43] ---
    Gao released the Dragon Force.
[19:46] ---
    It can't be!
[19:48] ---
    It's true.
[19:50] ---
    I thought it was my destiny
    to release the Dragon Force...
[19:53] ---
    Why would someone like him...
[19:56] ---
    Why!
[20:00] ---
    Well then! Time to announce the results of
    the WBC Cup Japan Tournament!
[20:05] ---
    The first to qualify was
    Master Tasuku Ryuenji!
[20:12] ---
    The second was Gaito Kurouzu!
[20:16] ---
    And finally, Gao Mikado!
[20:21] ---
    Those three Buddyfighters will be
    participating in the World Championships!
[20:26] ---
    We're all rooting for you!
[20:29] ---
    Here's hoping that one of our
    representatives will be the Buddy Champion!
[20:33] ---
    Let's have a pre-celebration festival!
[20:36] ---
    Looks good!
[20:39] ---
    Yum!
[20:43] ---
    Looks delicious!
[20:44] ---
    All right! Time to eat!
[20:47] ---
    It was just a dream, B...
[20:50] ---
    A ridiculous dream where that sweet,
    gentle Doctor Kakeru was actually a terrible villain.
[20:58] ---
    It wasn't a dream, turtle.
[21:00] ---
    It really happened, turtle.
[21:01] ---
    And he was arrested, turtle.
[21:04] ---
    I wish it was a dream, B!
[21:10] ---
    I'm impressed, Rouga.
[21:13] ---
    You made it to this room
    without anyone noticing you.
[21:17] ---
    I had plenty of time.
[21:20] ---
    So I did all sorts of research.
[21:22] ---
    Kyoya.
[21:23] ---
    You purchased this island in order to release
    the Dragon Force, didn't you.
[21:29] ---
    I didn't care who released it.
[21:32] ---
    I achieved my goal.
[21:34] ---
    What are your true intentions?
[21:38] ---
    We're both Buddyfighters.
[21:41] ---
    Let's discuss it through a Buddyfight.
[21:44] ---
    Very well.
[21:50] ---
    Raise the flag!
[21:52] ---
    Danger World!
[21:55] ---
    That flag is...
[21:57] ---
    Dragon Zwei.
[21:59] ---
    If you lose, you're going to
    be my friend again.
[22:07] ---
    Gao.
[22:08] ---
    Let's continue to do our best in
    the World Championships!
[22:10] ---
    Yeah! Same to you!
[22:12] ---
    I hope that we can meet
    again in the finals.
