[00:01] ---
    My name is Chibi Panda!
[00:03] ---
    Kanata and Keisetsu finally faced
    each other in a Buddyfight!
[00:06] ---
    Keisetsu is Demonic Descent Sword
    of the King Laevateinn's Buddy,
[00:09] ---
    and he equipped a
    whole bunch of swords!
[00:11] ---
    He's a Nine Sword-style swordsmaster!
[00:14] ---
    Kanata and Athora fought with
    all their strength, but...
[00:16] ---
    They lost!
[00:19] ---
    On top of that, monsters all over Cho-Tokyo
    are suffering mysterious agonizing pain.
[00:23] ---
    What could be happening to us monsters?
[02:00] ---
    Across Cho-Tokyo, there has been a wave of
    monsters engaging in abnormal behavior.
[02:06] ---
    The Buddy Police are investigating
    but the cause is currently unknown.
[02:10] ---
    That's so scary.
[02:11] ---
    If I became violent and
    attacked Gao or Big Boss...
[02:15] ---
    Don't worry!
[02:16] ---
    If that happens, I'll slap that nonsense
    out of you and make you normal again.
[02:19] ---
    What?
[02:20] ---
    Why me?
[02:22] ---
    If you don't want that to happen,
    you'd better train hard and toughen up!
[02:27] ---
    Th-That's a little unreasonable...
[02:29] ---
    Batzz and Chibi Panda
    seem to be fine, but...
[02:31] ---
    Something about this bothers me.
[02:35] ---
    The Power of Overturn!
    Heavenly Crystal Dragon, Aldo Athora!
[02:43] ---
    Kanata. I'm sorry.
[02:45] ---
    Athora?
[02:46] ---
    It's my fault that you lost to Keisetsu.
[02:49] ---
    I wasn't able to protect you properly.
[02:52] ---
    As a result, you ended up suffering.
[02:54] ---
    I'm upset that I lost.
[02:56] ---
    But right now, I'm more
    concerned about Keisetsu.
[03:02] ---
    Keisetsu has been brainwashed by Wisdom.
[03:05] ---
    And I'm responsible for that.
[03:07] ---
    It's true that you once faced
    him in a Buddyfight and won.
[03:10] ---
    But that was the result of both
    of you giving it your all. So...
[03:14] ---
    You shouldn't feel bad.
[03:16] ---
    That's what you want to say, right?
[03:18] ---
    Well... I mean...
[03:21] ---
    I want to get Keisetsu away from
    the Chaos Company... from Wisdom.
[03:26] ---
    But...
[03:28] ---
    There's nothing that I can do.
[03:36] ---
    Kanata...
[03:37] ---
    Sorry. I couldn't help overhearing.
[03:40] ---
    What happened between
    you two and Keisetsu?
[03:43] ---
    If you don't mind, we'd like
    to hear the details.
[03:49] ---
    Kanata met me, and he
    began playing Buddyfight.
[03:53] ---
    Kanata honed his ability to accurately analyze
    the situation and instantly act through soccer.
[03:59] ---
    And this ability was soon
    used in his Buddyfights.
[04:02] ---
    He wanted to test his own abilities, and so
    he entered a Buddyfight Shop Tournament.
[04:07] ---
    In the final round of that tournament,
    Keisetsu was his opponent.
[04:10] ---
    He was the champion of that card shop, and
    apparently he won every tournament that he was in.
[04:18] ---
    Meanwhile, Kanata was a newbie who was
    participating in his first Shop Tournament.
[04:22] ---
    Everybody who was there thought
    that Keisetsu was sure to win...
[04:25] ---
    But Kanata defeated Keisetsu without
    taking a single point of damage.
[04:32] ---
    This is the first time I've had such a
    satisfying Buddyfight match.
[04:35] ---
    Thank you, Keisetsu.
[04:37] ---
    What?
[04:38] ---
    You're not the one who's strong.
[04:40] ---
    It's Athora.
[04:42] ---
    You're just a coward who
    relies on his monsters!
[04:45] ---
    What are you saying?
[04:46] ---
    Kanata used his skill to defeat you!
[04:49] ---
    Don't talk back to me, you lowly monster!
[04:52] ---
    This is why I hate monsters!
[04:54] ---
    That was the only place where I belonged.
[04:57] ---
    And then a newbie like you
    came along and ruined it all!
[04:59] ---
    I'll never forgive you for this!
[05:01] ---
    Keisetsu! Wait!
[05:04] ---
    And Keisetsu never came
    to that card shop again.
[05:08] ---
    Afterwards, there was a rumor
    that he had quit Buddyfight.
[05:13] ---
    Quit Buddyfight?
[05:14] ---
    It must have been a real
    shock when he lost to Kanata.
[05:18] ---
    What a pathetic loser.
[05:20] ---
    When Kanata heard that, he told me...
[05:24] ---
    I'm the one who drove Keisetsu to this.
[05:27] ---
    I took Buddyfight away from Keisetsu.
[05:33] ---
    So I'm going to quit too.
[05:35] ---
    I'm quitting Buddyfight.
[05:38] ---
    So that's what happened.
[05:40] ---
    Keisetsu joined the Chaos Company,
    and became one of the Chaos Three.
[05:44] ---
    Wisdom gave him Demonic Descent
    Sword of the King, Laevateinn.
[05:48] ---
    He became our most powerful enemy,
    and appeared before Kanata once more.
[05:52] ---
    Most powerful?
[05:54] ---
    He's just swinging around a stick he got
    from Wisdom and thinking he's hot stuff.
[05:59] ---
    If only I was stronger...
    this wouldn't have happened.
[06:03] ---
    Kanata...
[06:15] ---
    All right. I'll be your goalkeeper.
[06:17] ---
    Gao...
[06:20] ---
    Come at me, Kanata!
[06:26] ---
    What's wrong? Even I could
    pull off a weak shot like that.
[06:33] ---
    Did losing to Keisetsu make
    you bad at soccer too?
[06:37] ---
    That shot from our showdown
    was way more powerful!
[06:41] ---
    I'm going to give it my all!
[06:46] ---
    Huh?
[06:49] ---
    I get it.
[06:54] ---
    If this is all you've got, you'll never beat
    Keisetsu no matter how many times you face him.
[07:02] ---
    Don't blame me for whatever happens next.
[07:06] ---
    Gao. This is me getting serious!
[07:14] ---
    I-I can really feel your passion...
[07:17] ---
    I knew you could do it if you tried.
[07:19] ---
    Sorry! Are you okay?
[07:21] ---
    I heard from Athora...
[07:23] ---
    It's not your fault that Keisetsu became
    one of Wisdom's underlings.
[07:27] ---
    It was the result of both
    of you giving it your all.
[07:30] ---
    No... But...
[07:31] ---
    Rather than regretting
    what's already been done...
[07:33] ---
    Let's think about what we're
    going to do from now on.
[07:36] ---
    But what can I do?
[07:40] ---
    Face him again.
[07:42] ---
    Huh?
[07:43] ---
    Try again, as many times as it takes.
[07:46] ---
    If you Buddyfight the way that you kicked that shot
    just now, he'll eventually understand your feelings.
[07:53] ---
    You're right.
    Thank you, Gao.
[07:58] ---
    Kanata met you, and began Buddyfight.
[08:01] ---
    That's what you said, right?
[08:02] ---
    Yeah.
[08:04] ---
    Kanata's life was changed
    by your encounter.
[08:07] ---
    You changed Kanata.
[08:09] ---
    So now... maybe it's your turn to change.
[08:12] ---
    Me?
[08:19] ---
    I'm looking forward to the new you.
    See you around.
[08:22] ---
    Big Boss! Wait for me!
[08:26] ---
    It's just as Gao said.
[08:28] ---
    I'm sure that Keisetsu will understand.
[08:31] ---
    Just as I learned how fun
    Buddyfight was from you.
[08:36] ---
    This is the place where
    we first met, isn't it.
[08:53] ---
    This time, I'll protect you
    completely, Kanata.
[08:55] ---
    I will overcome my own limits.
[08:57] ---
    Let's do it. Together.
[09:06] ---
    Athora!
[09:08] ---
    Athora, you've finally evolved!
[09:12] ---
    Now I can definitely protect you, Kanata!
[09:16] ---
    This is quite the problem.
[09:18] ---
    Huh? What is?
[09:20] ---
    You didn't hold back in a Buddyfight
    with our guest, and obliterated him.
[09:24] ---
    It's going to negatively impact
    Grimoire Park's public image.
[09:27] ---
    I'll do whatever I want.
[09:30] ---
    That's what I've been
    telling you all along.
[09:33] ---
    That's true.
[09:35] ---
    Then from now on, we'll have this
    gentleman take over the Buddyfights.
[09:40] ---
    You're...
[09:42] ---
    Long Daiakuji!
[09:43] ---
    Oh? You've heard of me?
[09:46] ---
    You're a Buddyfighter from
    the criminal underworld.
[09:48] ---
    Someone who'll work for
    anyone for the right price.
[09:51] ---
    Am I right?
[09:52] ---
    That's right. I've made
    a contract with Wisdom.
[09:55] ---
    I'm an employee of the Chaos
    Company from today onwards.
[09:57] ---
    Wisdom? Call him Master Wisdom!
[10:00] ---
    Hey! Grimoire! What are you thinking,
    bringing in a guy like this?
[10:04] ---
    I am but a simple secretary.
[10:06] ---
    All I did was follow orders.
[10:09] ---
    Orders? Don't tell me
    Master Wisdom ordered this?
[10:12] ---
    But he has me!
    One of the Chaos Three!
[10:16] ---
    The Chaos Three...
[10:18] ---
    One lost to Gao Mikado.
[10:20] ---
    Another lost to Gaito Kurouzu.
[10:23] ---
    A truly incompetent trio.
[10:27] ---
    That's right. Other than me, that is.
[10:31] ---
    Master Keisetsu?
    Where are you going?
[10:33] ---
    I'm going to find out what Master Wisdom
    is thinking... by asking him directly.
[10:41] ---
    Gao! Everyone!
[10:43] ---
    You're late, Kanata! We were
    getting tired of waiting.
[10:45] ---
    Gao told us everything.
[10:48] ---
    You must open a door to a new
    destiny by your own hand...
[10:51] ---
    It seems the time has come.
[10:53] ---
    We're going to give your repeat
    challenge our full attention.
[10:56] ---
    We're rooting for you, Kanata!
[10:58] ---
    Thank you.
    Let's go, Athora.
[11:00] ---
    Yeah!
[11:07] ---
    They're closed? Nobody told us!
[11:11] ---
    We're long past the park's
    usual opening time.
[11:14] ---
    It looks like it's a temporary closure.
[11:17] ---
    That's exactly right, Miss.
[11:20] ---
    I'm terribly sorry for the
    delayed announcement.
[11:23] ---
    Why are you closed all of a sudden?
[11:25] ---
    It's because of the abnormal monster
    behavior mentioned on the news.
[11:29] ---
    You mean the mysterious phenomenon that's
    causing monsters to suffer pain and go berserk?
[11:33] ---
    Yes. We decided to prepare for the
    worst, and close the park today.
[11:38] ---
    We've come to see Keisetsu.
[11:42] ---
    Master Keisetsu?
[11:43] ---
    We'd like to face him in
    a Buddyfight again.
[11:47] ---
    I understand.
[11:49] ---
    Please, enter.
[11:56] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[12:01] ---
    You're...
[12:02] ---
    Long Daiakuji.
[12:04] ---
    Daiakuji?
[12:05] ---
    We came here to face Keisetsu...
[12:09] ---
    Wherever there are Buddyfights,
    you'll find Paruko Nanana!
[12:12] ---
    Today, we have Long Daiakuji
    facing Kanata Ozora!
[12:16] ---
    A little birdie told me, and so
    I came here at the speed of light!
[12:20] ---
    Who is this Daiakuji guy?
[12:22] ---
    I've never heard that name before.
[12:24] ---
    I'm searching online,
    but I can't find any info.
[12:26] ---
    In other words, he's a mystery
    Buddyfighter whose identity is unknown?
[12:31] ---
    What's a guy like him doing here?
[12:33] ---
    Keisetsu isn't here.
[12:34] ---
    If you want to know where he is,
    you'll have to defeat me and ask Grimoire.
[12:39] ---
    Athora.
[12:40] ---
    Let's do this, Kanata.
[12:42] ---
    Finishing kick from the
    azure field, long shot!
[12:45] ---
    Luminize!
[12:46] ---
    Dragon Fielder!
[12:50] ---
    Wipe out everything on Earth,
    and eradicate all hope!
[12:54] ---
    Luminize!
[12:54] ---
    Guardian Dragon's Imperial Wrath!
[12:56] ---
    Buddy...fight!
[12:58] ---
    Raise the flag!
[13:01] ---
    Star Dragon World!
[13:03] ---
    Dungeon World!
[13:05] ---
    I have the first move.
[13:06] ---
    Charge and draw!
[13:09] ---
    I Buddycall Guardian Dragon of Nativity,
    Mother Dragon to the center!
[13:12] ---
    I cast! Reset Button!
[13:14] ---
    I return the gauge card to my deck,
    and increase my gauge!
[13:17] ---
    I call Monster Egg to the left!
[13:22] ---
    Monster Egg?
[13:23] ---
    But it has 0 power.
[13:25] ---
    Mother Dragon! Exterminate the fighter!
[13:32] ---
    Kanata Ozora is already
    taking massive damage!
[13:36] ---
    Kanata!
[13:36] ---
    My turn is over.
[13:38] ---
    Due to Mother Dragon's effect, I call Silver
    Monster Egg from the drop zone to the right.
[13:45] ---
    Once again, it's a monster with 0 power.
[13:48] ---
    What possible use could that monster have?
[13:51] ---
    I call Blue Crystal Dragon,
    Kalvados to the center!
[13:55] ---
    I have arrived.
[13:57] ---
    I call Jade Crystal Dragon,
    Schartreuze to the right!
[14:00] ---
    Red Crystal Dragon,
    Almarone to the left!
[14:03] ---
    It seems to be my turn in the spotlight.
[14:05] ---
    Leave this to me...
[14:07] ---
    I equip! Crystal Spikes!
[14:10] ---
    Now it's kick-off time.
[14:12] ---
    Kanata Ozora has set up
    his attack formation!
[14:15] ---
    Kalvados! Attack Mother Dragon!
[14:18] ---
    Be destroyed!
[14:26] ---
    Revive with Soulguard!
[14:28] ---
    Almarone! Schartreuze!
    Do a link attack!
[14:32] ---
    Commencing attack.
[14:35] ---
    Allow me to show you my power.
[14:43] ---
    Once again, Mother Dragon
    stays on the field!
[14:45] ---
    Kanata Ozora's attacks have no effect!
[14:47] ---
    Talk about a tough mother!
[14:49] ---
    I bet I'd be able to destroy
    that enemy in one blow.
[14:52] ---
    Now, it's Long Daiakuji's turn!
[14:55] ---
    I activate the Monster Egg
    on the left's ability.
[14:58] ---
    I call Gummy Slime as a size 0 monster!
[15:01] ---
    Size 0?
[15:03] ---
    Gu-mi-mi-mi!
    Mi-mi!
[15:05] ---
    Impossible!
[15:06] ---
    A monster hatched out of the egg!
[15:09] ---
    Calling a new monster from my deck.
[15:12] ---
    That's the true ability of
    the 0 power Monster Egg!
[15:15] ---
    Dragon Guardian of the Sanctuary, Lumiere!
[15:17] ---
    Be born from the Silver
    Monster Egg on the right!
[15:26] ---
    Due to Lumiere's ability,
    I destroy Schartreuze!
[15:32] ---
    New monsters are hatching
    one after the other!
[15:35] ---
    Long Daiakuji's Buddyfighting style
    is a force to be reckoned with!
[15:38] ---
    I cast! Blessing of Nereus!
[15:41] ---
    That increases Lumiere's power.
[15:44] ---
    Mother Dragon! Show them your power!
[15:47] ---
    Attack Kalvados!
[15:52] ---
    Revive with Soulguard!
[15:55] ---
    Crystal Spikes' ability, activate!
[16:05] ---
    Nice shot, Kanata!
[16:07] ---
    In that case...
[16:08] ---
    I'll execute Kalvados using Lumiere!
[16:14] ---
    Let my strength be added to your gauge...
[16:17] ---
    Thank you, Kalvados.
[16:19] ---
    We'll make good use of that gauge!
[16:21] ---
    Double Attack on the fighter!
[16:23] ---
    And then, a link attack with Gummy Slime!
[16:28] ---
    With Kanata's center wide open,
    Lumiere's attacks hit their mark!
[16:33] ---
    He's lost a whole lot of life in one turn.
[16:35] ---
    My turn is over.
[16:36] ---
    Due to Mother Dragon's effect,
    I call Gold Monster Egg to the left!
[16:42] ---
    This time, it's a Gold Monster Egg!
[16:44] ---
    What will come out of that egg?
[16:46] ---
    Now it's Kanata Ozora's turn!
[16:49] ---
    Athora. I believe in you.
[16:51] ---
    Draw.
[16:52] ---
    Charge and...
[16:56] ---
    Draw!
[16:58] ---
    Athora, let's do this!
[16:59] ---
    This time, you can count on me for sure!
[17:01] ---
    I Buddy call Heavenly Crystal Dragon,
    Aldo Athora to the center!
[17:05] ---
    This is my evolved form!
[17:12] ---
    No matter what may come,
    there's no need to fear!
[17:15] ---
    I will protect Kanata no matter what!
[17:19] ---
    Kanata Ozora's Buddy has
    taken on a new form!
[17:23] ---
    So Athora has finally evolved.
[17:26] ---
    Destiny has guided him.
[17:29] ---
    Things are getting interesting.
[17:30] ---
    Kanata! Athora! Go for it!
[17:33] ---
    I cast! Enhancement!
[17:35] ---
    I increase my gauge by 1 and draw a card.
[17:38] ---
    Athora! Attack Mother Dragon!
[17:41] ---
    Prismatic Maser Rain!
[17:51] ---
    They did it!
[17:52] ---
    Oh wow! It's so beautiful!
[17:54] ---
    Due to Mother Dragon's lifelink,
    Long Daiakuji is down to 8 life!
[17:59] ---
    Athora! Double Attack!
[18:01] ---
    Prismatic Maser Rain!
[18:09] ---
    But Long still has a Gold Monster Egg.
[18:12] ---
    Who knows what's going to hatch?
[18:14] ---
    I'm not going to let a monster
    hatch out of that egg!
[18:17] ---
    Go, Almarone!
[18:19] ---
    Please leave this to me.
[18:21] ---
    I cast! Hidden Crossbow!
[18:26] ---
    At this point, they switch
    offense and defense!
[18:28] ---
    Long Daiakuji keeps Almarone's attack
    at bay, and now his turn begins!
[18:31] ---
    The Monster Egg on the left's ability! I call
    Dragon Guardian of the Sanctuary, Lumiere!
[18:37] ---
    I cast! Reset Button!
[18:39] ---
    I return 1 gauge to the deck
    and increase my gauge!
[18:42] ---
    And! I call Mother Dragon to the center!
[18:48] ---
    Unbelievable! Simply amazing!
[18:50] ---
    The left, center, and right positions are
    all occupied by size 3 monsters!
[18:54] ---
    Aldo Athora has 10000 defense, but...
[18:57] ---
    There's no way he can avoid
    all of the enemy's attacks.
[19:00] ---
    Don't underestimate him!
[19:01] ---
    He's been reborn.
[19:03] ---
    He's even stronger than he was before.
[19:05] ---
    That's right. Kanata's
    definitely going to win!
[19:07] ---
    I'll settle this fight during this turn.
[19:09] ---
    Lumiere! Attack Aldo Athora!
[19:16] ---
    Kanata!
[19:16] ---
    Now is the time to use that power!
[19:19] ---
    Let's do this!
[19:19] ---
    Heavenly Crystal Dragon...
[19:25] ---
    Aldo Athora!
[19:29] ---
    Overturn!
[19:32] ---
    Aldo Athora's Overturn costs one hand
    card and 1 gauge. And during this turn...
[19:36] ---
    No matter what attack he's hit with,
    he won't be destroyed!
[19:39] ---
    During this turn?
[19:40] ---
    Right now, Athora is unbeatable!
[19:45] ---
    Impossible!
[19:46] ---
    Why am I taking damage?
[19:48] ---
    During this turn, Aldo Athora cannot
    be destroyed by any attack.
[19:52] ---
    And when he's attacked, he deals
    1 damage to the opponent!
[19:55] ---
    So this is the power of Overturn
    for Athora's evolved form.
[19:58] ---
    Amazing! It's so amazing!
[20:00] ---
    Crystal Spikes' ability, activate!
[20:08] ---
    My turn is over.
[20:11] ---
    What's going on here?
[20:13] ---
    Lumiere just did a
    Double Attack, all on his own!
[20:15] ---
    What?
[20:17] ---
    This is another ability that
    Aldo Athora's Overturn has.
[20:20] ---
    All of your cards are forced to keep
    attacking Aldo Athora, one at a time!
[20:26] ---
    Wh-What did you say?
[20:27] ---
    Athora's Buddyfight style
    is to defend at all costs.
[20:30] ---
    It seems this is the ultimate
    answer to his problems.
[20:32] ---
    Yeah... it's a terrifyingly
    aggressive defense.
[20:36] ---
    This is Kanata and Athora's solution!
[20:48] ---
    Stop it! Stop right now!
[20:49] ---
    I haven't ordered you to attack!
[20:55] ---
    Don't do it! Don't attack, Mother Dragon!
[21:00] ---
    This will end you!
[21:03] ---
    This is impossible!
[21:06] ---
    Game End!
[21:07] ---
    Winner, Kanata Ozora!
[21:10] ---
    A bold victory!
[21:14] ---
    So this is the power of Overturn...
[21:16] ---
    It was spectacular!
[21:18] ---
    Mister Long.
[21:19] ---
    Let's do this again sometime.
[21:21] ---
    Another Buddyfight.
[21:23] ---
    It seems I need to start
    my training over again.
[21:26] ---
    Awesome! You won!
[21:28] ---
    You did it, Kanata!
[21:30] ---
    That was a good Buddyfight
    you just showed us.
[21:32] ---
    It's all thanks to you, Gao.
[21:34] ---
    Now we can fight as
    equals with Keisetsu...
[21:35] ---
    No, we'll be even stronger!
[21:39] ---
    Mister Grimoire?
[21:40] ---
    Mister Grimoire!
[21:41] ---
    Where's Mister Grimoire?
[21:43] ---
    What's going on?
[21:45] ---
    Just now, the Buddy Police
    made an official statement.
[21:48] ---
    The abnormal behavior of monsters
    all over Cho-Tokyo is the result of
[21:51] ---
    the Buddy Checker app given
    out here at Grimoire Park!
[21:57] ---
    Who could have guessed that the app
    caused those unnatural events?
[22:01] ---
    That must be why those of us who
    declined the app were unaffected.
[22:05] ---
    That's right!
[22:08] ---
    It's all thanks to Big Boss refusing
    to do as Grimoire said to!
[22:12] ---
    We Thunder Empire monsters are always in
    peak condition! And we're the strongest!
[22:16] ---
    We have no need to rely
    on your so-called app!
[22:20] ---
    My Abygale could have been hurt too...
[22:22] ---
    This is unforgivable!
[22:23] ---
    Silence!
[22:26] ---
    You're...
[22:28] ---
    Wisdom!
[22:29] ---
    Grimoire is no longer here.
[22:32] ---
    As the CEO of the Chaos Company,
    I have an important announcement to make.
[22:40] ---
    This is today's most powerful card!
[22:43] ---
    Heavenly Crystal Dragon, Aldo Athora!
[22:45] ---
    If you use his Overturn, Athora
    cannot be destroyed during that turn,
[22:50] ---
    and the opponent's cards are forced
    to keep attacking, one at a time.
[22:53] ---
    And each time the opponent attacks,
    they get hit with 1 damage.
[22:58] ---
    Now, which one is today's
    most powerful card?
[23:06] ---
    The correct answer is,
    the card on your right!
[24:40] ---
    Gaito and the others want to
    break into Grimoire Park.
[24:43] ---
    I can understand how they feel,
    but... what will we do, Batzz?
[24:46] ---
    What? There are a whole
    bunch of Geargods?
[24:48] ---
    Next episode: Gaito versus Artificial Intelligence!
    Explosion of the Mini Geargods!!
