[01:31] ---
    This is sudden,
    but this is our story so far!
[01:34] ---
    In an attempt to repair his bonds of friendship with Seiji,
    Subaru sent him a message using Ran-Ga Channel.
[01:39] ---
    Meanwhile, with Vile Ranma's assistance,
    Seiji underwent another power-up.
[01:44] ---
    The two former friends clashed
    in their tournament finals match.
[01:47] ---
    In the end, Subaru was the victor.
[01:49] ---
    And so, Seiji overcame his envy and
    decided to renew his friendship with Subaru.
[01:55] ---
    And Destroyer revealed
    his true intentions.
[02:00] ---
    The Ace Buddyfighter Play-offs...
[02:02] ---
    Are entering the semi-finals at last!
[02:05] ---
    The following four Buddyfighters have
    made their way up the tournament ranks.
[02:08] ---
    I can hardly wait, chu!
[02:10] ---
    The first match will be between
    Yuga Mikado and Masato Rikuo!
[02:14] ---
    The second match will be between
    Vile Ranma and Subaru Hoshiyomi.
[02:18] ---
    The winner of each match will
    proceed to the final match!
[02:21] ---
    Let us all watch their
    Buddyfights together!
[02:26] ---
    Ace Buddyfighters! Assemble!
[02:30] ---
    At last, the semifinals are beginning.
[02:32] ---
    The Linkdragon Order is pumped up!
[02:37] ---
    Miss Eden is so wonderful.
[02:39] ---
    Don't you think so too, Amaterasu?
[02:41] ---
    Y-Yes, she certainly is.
[02:43] ---
    Grumble, grumble...
[02:44] ---
    I mean, smile, smile...
[02:46] ---
    If I asked her if I could call her Big Sister,
    I wonder if she'd think I was weird?
[02:50] ---
    Well, I certainly have no idea.
[02:52] ---
    Grumble, grumble...
[02:53] ---
    I mean, smile, smile...
[02:58] ---
    Hey there.
[02:59] ---
    Oh, Yuga. Welcome to the cafe!
[03:01] ---
    I didn't know you guys were here.
[03:03] ---
    Did you see the official
    announcement video?
[03:04] ---
    I just finished watching it.
[03:05] ---
    We're going to face each
    other in the first match!
[03:08] ---
    It seems you've taken
    a liking to this place.
[03:10] ---
    Yes. We've come for our daily tea break.
[03:12] ---
    But you know, the pizza here
    is the most delicious of all.
[03:15] ---
    So we've heard. And that is why we will
    have some pizza here today as well.
[03:18] ---
    I see.
[03:19] ---
    The pizza has finished baking...
[03:21] ---
    Thanks! I'll take it over to her.
[03:25] ---
    The Gar-trio isn't here today?
[03:27] ---
    Garcat's got a fever.
[03:29] ---
    Well then, I shall also have a pizza.
[03:32] ---
    This is delicious indeed.
[03:33] ---
    Really? You mean it?
[03:35] ---
    Garga was correct.
[03:37] ---
    Amaterasu? Could I have a pizza?
[03:39] ---
    I might make a habit of visiting this cafe.
[03:41] ---
    I'm so glad to hear that! I hope
    you become a regular.
[03:44] ---
    I thought I was supposed
    to be Miko's big sister...
[03:50] ---
    Uh, the plate broke...
[03:51] ---
    I'm totally useless, I'm sure!
[03:55] ---
    Hey, Amaterasu!
[03:57] ---
    Huh?
[03:58] ---
    She shut herself up again...
[03:59] ---
    What?
[04:00] ---
    Let's do our best in the semi-finals.
[04:02] ---
    Of course!
[04:04] ---
    But I feel like there's something missing.
[04:06] ---
    You're right.
[04:08] ---
    Let's go.
[04:09] ---
    Yeah!
[04:10] ---
    But what about my pizza?
[04:12] ---
    S-Sorry, I don't have time for that.
[04:14] ---
    What's wrong, Amaterasu?
[04:16] ---
    Nobody cares about me...
    Sulk, sulk...
[04:18] ---
    I want a refill on my pizza too.
[04:21] ---
    Garga, I'm heading out.
[04:32] ---
    That was quite impressive.
    Destroyer's power-up, I mean.
[04:35] ---
    Now my victory is more certain than ever.
[04:39] ---
    You've got that right.
[04:40] ---
    Can't wait to see the public debut
    of Destroyer's evolved form.
[04:44] ---
    Well, I've got to get going.
[04:46] ---
    I'll be looking forward to your
    next match with Subaru.
[05:03] ---
    Ranma!
[05:08] ---
    Oh, there he is!
[05:09] ---
    What are you doing here?
[05:11] ---
    What are we doing here?
    Well, the semi-finals are starting, aren't they?
[05:14] ---
    Now all the players are in one place!
[05:16] ---
    Don't tell me you came to say "Let's all do our best
    in the semi-finals", or something cheesy like that?
[05:22] ---
    That is precisely why we're here.
[05:23] ---
    It just didn't feel right without
    all four of us together.
[05:26] ---
    Now we can really get fired up!
[05:28] ---
    You guys have too much free time!
[05:30] ---
    Two of us are going to battle
    it out in the final match.
[05:33] ---
    Honestly, I wish I could
    Buddyfight all of you!
[05:36] ---
    You know, I've never faced Subaru
    or Vile Ranma in this tournament.
[05:40] ---
    We just never seemed to run into
    each other in the official matches.
[05:45] ---
    You've got a point there!
[05:55] ---
    Ah, I really want to Buddyfight!
[05:57] ---
    Hey, why don't we all
    Buddyfight right now?
[06:00] ---
    I think that's a little unreasonable.
[06:02] ---
    You're always like this.
[06:04] ---
    Give me a break!
[06:06] ---
    You're leaving me out
    in the cold, as usual.
[06:10] ---
    Whether or not I'm here
    doesn't even matter to you.
[06:12] ---
    You're forgetting all about me while
    you act like the best of buddies!
[06:16] ---
    Aw, it's not like that...
[06:17] ---
    Get out of here!
[06:18] ---
    Hang on, Ranma.
[06:20] ---
    Don't you realize? I came to see you.
[06:23] ---
    Don't be ridiculous!
[06:26] ---
    Yuga. Whatever happens in your semi-finals
    match, it's got nothing to do with me.
[06:30] ---
    No matter what, I'm going
    to be the champion.
[06:32] ---
    Now that you know, leave!
[06:35] ---
    Ranma?
[06:39] ---
    I think I made him mad.
[06:42] ---
    For share!
[06:43] ---
    It's going to be fine.
[06:46] ---
    Whatever happens, you and
    Ranma are friends, right?
[06:48] ---
    You two can work things
    out through a Buddyfight.
[06:51] ---
    Yeah!
[06:55] ---
    Vile Ranma. You have
    no need of those fools.
[06:59] ---
    We are already far beyond their reach.
[07:03] ---
    Destroyer...
[07:05] ---
    You're amazing.
[07:08] ---
    You were banished to
    an alternate dimension...
[07:10] ---
    And forgotten...
[07:11] ---
    And even then, with your unwavering strength,
    you became the sole survivor and champion.
[07:17] ---
    I'm grateful that you chose me.
[07:23] ---
    Amaterasu!
[07:25] ---
    Enough is enough.
[07:26] ---
    I want to eat pizza!
[07:30] ---
    Did Eden leave already?
[07:31] ---
    Yeah! But she said she'd come again.
[07:33] ---
    Nobody cares about me, I'm sure...
[07:35] ---
    What happened?
[07:37] ---
    Dear Miko doesn't need me anymore...
[07:40] ---
    Sob, sob...
[07:41] ---
    Why would you say that?
[07:43] ---
    That can't possibly be true! For Buddyfighters
    like us, our Buddies are irreplaceable!
[07:48] ---
    That's right!
[07:49] ---
    If Amaterasu ever went away, I'd... I'd...
[07:54] ---
    Oh no! Miko's crying!
[07:56] ---
    What?
[07:57] ---
    Miko dear! Don't cry!
[08:01] ---
    Gotcha!
[08:03] ---
    Huh?
[08:03] ---
    It seems she was only pretending to cry.
[08:05] ---
    I'm so glad you came out!
[08:08] ---
    All right! Time for pizza!
[08:15] ---
    Hey. What are you up to?
[08:17] ---
    Exactly what it looks like.
[08:19] ---
    I'm looking, but I have no idea.
[08:21] ---
    I was trying to foretell the
    outcome of the semi-finals, but...
[08:24] ---
    I can't see anything.
[08:26] ---
    It was the same during the ABC Cup, too.
[08:29] ---
    Cross, I will craft my
    future victory by my own hand.
[08:35] ---
    Tonight, the stars are
    more beautiful than ever.
[08:38] ---
    Finally, the time has come.
[08:40] ---
    Subaru. I'm going to defeat
    Yuga and head to the finals.
[08:44] ---
    So you'd better defeat Ranma, too!
[08:46] ---
    I will.
[08:50] ---
    I think my fever's going down, cat.
[08:52] ---
    Glad to hear it.
[08:54] ---
    You got overexcited
    about the semi-finals, dog.
[08:59] ---
    I've never had a fever in all my life, bird.
[09:02] ---
    And you're a little too relaxed
    about the semi-finals, dog.
[09:04] ---
    Tomorrow is our semi-final match.
    I'm counting on all of you.
[09:07] ---
    It'll be a piece of cake, cat!
[09:09] ---
    I'm going to bed early to
    prepare for tomorrow, bird.
[09:15] ---
    I'm going to win no matter what, and
    become the best Buddyfighter in Japan!
[09:18] ---
    Indeed. Yuga, you are truly deserving
    of the title Ace Buddyfighter.
[09:26] ---
    The semi-finals are officially open!
[09:30] ---
    The first match features these two, chu!
[09:33] ---
    The Ace of Sports, Masato Rikuo! And...
[09:36] ---
    The Ace of Games, Yuga Mikado!
[09:39] ---
    Who will you be cheering for, Miko dear?
[09:41] ---
    So exciting!
[09:42] ---
    I'll cheer for both of them.
[09:44] ---
    I'm supporting my brother, of course!
[09:46] ---
    This should be an interesting Buddyfight.
[09:48] ---
    Yeah. I'll enjoy it to the fullest.
[10:01] ---
    The linked spiral is the chain of bonds!
[10:03] ---
    Luminize!
[10:07] ---
    Spiral Linkdragon Order!
[10:10] ---
    The Deity of Combat that
    links all worlds together!
[10:12] ---
    And descends now!
[10:13] ---
    Luminize!
[10:15] ---
    Ace Dradeity!
[10:17] ---
    Buddy...fight!
[10:20] ---
    Raise the flag!
[10:22] ---
    Ancient World!
[10:24] ---
    Dragon World!
[10:26] ---
    Rumbling Thunderaxe, Agito!
[10:31] ---
    Deity Gargantua Dragon!
[10:35] ---
    Masato Rikuo has the first move!
[10:48] ---
    Draw! Charge and draw!
[10:52] ---
    I cast! Linkdragon Order's Links!
[10:56] ---
    Masato Rikuo starts out by
    increasing his gauge and life.
[11:00] ---
    I Buddy call Rumbling
    Thunderaxe Agito to the right.
[11:06] ---
    I call Harahara to the left.
[11:07] ---
    And I call Mazuru to the center.
[11:14] ---
    We are the Linkdragon Order, and we
    join forces to fight together with Masato!
[11:18] ---
    Yeah!
[11:19] ---
    I equip! Order's Axe, Wildaxe.
[11:24] ---
    Masato Rikuo uses a spell to
    increase his life and hand cards.
[11:27] ---
    Due to Agito's Dragon Share,
    all monsters gain soul cards.
[11:32] ---
    Attack the fighter.
[11:36] ---
    I cast! Blue Dragon Shield!
[11:40] ---
    That's it for my turn.
[11:42] ---
    Draw.
[11:43] ---
    Charge and draw.
[11:45] ---
    I call Tith Gardra to the left.
[11:50] ---
    What path do you believe in?
[11:53] ---
    I Buddy call Deity Gargantua
    Dragon to the right!
[12:09] ---
    All are powerless before my blade!
[12:13] ---
    Tith's effect lets me draw a card.
[12:14] ---
    And I equip!
[12:15] ---
    Combat Deity Dragonfang
    Sword, Garga-Saber!
[12:20] ---
    Garga! Attack Mazuru.
[12:24] ---
    I cast! Undying Linkdragon Order!
[12:28] ---
    The attack is nullified.
    Masato Rikuo now has 21 life!
[12:32] ---
    Deity G.Evo, activate!
[12:34] ---
    Change! Gargantua Dragon...
[12:36] ---
    Gattling Mode!
[12:44] ---
    Gattling Mode!
[12:49] ---
    Gattling Mode ability, activate.
[12:52] ---
    And we're the targets!
[12:54] ---
    Fire!
[12:58] ---
    And fire!
[13:02] ---
    And fire!
[13:07] ---
    Harahara!
[13:12] ---
    Garga's ability, activate.
[13:13] ---
    Garga, revert!
[13:18] ---
    Attack the fighter!
[13:20] ---
    As you wish!
[13:25] ---
    Tith! Attack now!
[13:26] ---
    I will simply follow
    the path I believe in!
[13:32] ---
    As long as there's a Dragod on the field,
    Tith gains 1 critical when he attacks.
[13:36] ---
    And he gains Double Attack!
[13:41] ---
    And here I come!
[13:45] ---
    Amazing! Yuga Mikado took Masato Rikuo's
    increased life from 21 all the way down to 9!
[13:51] ---
    And that's where his turn ends!
[13:53] ---
    You're amazing, Yuga!
[13:58] ---
    Here it comes.
[13:59] ---
    Yuga.
[14:01] ---
    Gather, Linkdragon Order!
[14:03] ---
    I call to the center! Rumbling
    Spiral Thunderaxe, Emperor Agito!
[14:17] ---
    Right now, I'm overflowing
    with incredible power!
[14:25] ---
    The Linkdragon Order is coming together!
[14:27] ---
    Joy, sadness, and strength!
[14:29] ---
    The time has come to unite forces and
    become one with our skillful comrades!
[14:34] ---
    Spiral Dragon...
[14:36] ---
    Share!
[14:38] ---
    Here it comes! Emperor Agito has gained
    massive power due to the strength of his friends!
[14:46] ---
    This time, Yuga's going to face Emperor Agito.
[14:49] ---
    Agito was able to defeat Zerberos in that form.
[14:52] ---
    He's going to be a massive
    obstacle for Yuga and Garga.
[14:54] ---
    He's got an impenetrable defense
    thanks to that seven-card soul.
[14:57] ---
    And his attack is immense!
[14:58] ---
    I wonder, I wonder...
[15:00] ---
    What's Yuga going to do now?
[15:03] ---
    Deity Gargantua Dragon can
    use the powers of all worlds...
[15:08] ---
    If I want to take on Emperor Agito,
    this is the only way!
[15:11] ---
    Knowing you, you've included
    it in your deck, right?
[15:15] ---
    I pay 1 gauge and activate
    Garga-Saber's ability!
[15:19] ---
    G.Evo, activate!
[15:21] ---
    Change! Gargantua Blade Mage!
[15:34] ---
    I am the Deity of Mages.
[15:37] ---
    Gargantua Blade Mage!
[15:40] ---
    So that's your strategy.
[15:42] ---
    Every time I use a spell,
    this guy destroys a monster!
[15:46] ---
    It's the Magic World version of Garga!
[15:48] ---
    He's going to use his effect to
    get rid of those soul cards.
[15:51] ---
    Tith's effect lets me draw a card.
[15:54] ---
    Agito! Attack the fighter!
[15:57] ---
    Take this!
[15:58] ---
    I cast! Deity Blue Dragon Shield!
[16:01] ---
    Yuga Mikado blocks it with a spell!
[16:03] ---
    The attack is nullified!
[16:05] ---
    Blade Mage's effect lets
    me destroy Emperor Agito.
[16:10] ---
    I've got Double Attack!
[16:16] ---
    I cast! Linkdragon Order's Renewal!
[16:19] ---
    Emperor Agito can attack once again!
[16:22] ---
    I call Wings to the right!
[16:23] ---
    Wings' ability has been
    added to Dragon Share.
[16:26] ---
    If Masato destroys a monster,
    he can deal damage to his opponent.
[16:29] ---
    Here I go!
[16:34] ---
    I use Wildaxe to attack Tith!
[16:39] ---
    After that vicious attack by Emperor Agito,
    Yuga Mikado is down to 2 life in the blink of an eye!
[16:43] ---
    For share!
[16:44] ---
    This is it for you, Yuga!
[16:46] ---
    Final Phase!
[16:49] ---
    Yuga!
[16:53] ---
    I cast! Thunder Dragon Tornado!
[17:05] ---
    Impact!
[17:06] ---
    Thunder Dragon Tornado!
[17:10] ---
    I cast! Gar-Heilen!
[17:17] ---
    Thunder Dragon Tornado has been defeated!
[17:20] ---
    You're good, Yuga!
[17:22] ---
    I use Blade Mage's effect
    to destroy Emperor Agito!
[17:27] ---
    It's my turn.
[17:28] ---
    I cast! Gar-C'mon!
[17:31] ---
    I call Garcat to the left.
[17:32] ---
    I'm gonna do it, cat!
[17:33] ---
    I increase the gauge
    and the hand cards, cat!
[17:38] ---
    Blade Mage's effect takes
    away another soul card!
[17:41] ---
    I cast! Dragod Breath!
[17:43] ---
    Yuga Mikado uses another spell to destroy
    the monsters on his opponent's field!
[17:46] ---
    The effect deals damage to the fighter...
[17:49] ---
    And once again, Agito's soul is decreased!
[17:52] ---
    There's no stopping Yuga Mikado's spells!
[17:54] ---
    I cast! Dragon Trust!
[17:56] ---
    Emperor Agito is down to
    one soul card remaining!
[17:59] ---
    Garga! Garcat! Do a link
    attack on Emperor Agito!
[18:03] ---
    Let's do this, Garcat!
[18:04] ---
    Yes, meow!
[18:06] ---
    I cast! Undying Linkdragon Order!
[18:08] ---
    The attack is nullified!
[18:11] ---
    Let the showtime begin!
[18:14] ---
    Now, watch closely, folks!
[18:19] ---
    Blade Mage Blaster!
[18:28] ---
    Garga. Revert!
[18:32] ---
    Attack Emperor Agito!
[18:33] ---
    As you wish.
[18:36] ---
    I cast. Undying Linkdragon Order!
[18:38] ---
    Yuga Mikado once again
    has his attack nullified.
[18:43] ---
    Yuga.
[18:46] ---
    This is sudden, but let me explain!
[18:48] ---
    Masato had used all of
    the cards in his hand.
[18:50] ---
    However, Emperor Agito
    still has Soulguard.
[18:54] ---
    And Masato has 12 life remaining.
[18:56] ---
    Meanwhile, Yuga has 2 life.
[18:58] ---
    If he doesn't finish the battle in this turn,
    there's no way he can win.
[19:01] ---
    However, Yuga is down
    to just one hand card.
[19:04] ---
    Will Yuga be able to win?
[19:15] ---
    Will that card be enough to win?
[19:21] ---
    Deity G.Evo, activate!
[19:23] ---
    Draw!
[19:24] ---
    Change! Gargantua Dragon, Cyclone Mode!
[19:34] ---
    Gargantua Dragon! Cyclone Mode!
[19:38] ---
    Ability activate! Destroy Emperor Agito!
[19:43] ---
    One more time!
[19:45] ---
    I'm sorry, Masato!
[19:49] ---
    Unbelievable!
[19:50] ---
    Emperor Agito has been
    destroyed once and for all!
[19:52] ---
    Go for it, Yuga!
[19:54] ---
    Garga. Attack the fighter.
[19:59] ---
    Cyclone Mode's attack hits its target!
[20:03] ---
    Double Attack!
[20:06] ---
    Triple Attack!
[20:15] ---
    Garga. Revert.
[20:19] ---
    Way to go!
[20:20] ---
    Now, go!
[20:30] ---
    Go for the win, Yuga!
[20:33] ---
    Final Phase!
[20:34] ---
    I cast! Deity Gargantua Punisher!
[20:49] ---
    Impact!
[20:51] ---
    Deity Gargantua Punisher!
[20:57] ---
    Guess this is it for me...
[21:03] ---
    Game End! Yuga Mikado is the victor!
[21:07] ---
    Winner: me!
[21:09] ---
    The Ace of Games is headed to the finals!
[21:14] ---
    Good.
[21:16] ---
    This is how it should be.
[21:17] ---
    I... I will be the one to crush Yuga!
[21:27] ---
    We lost!
[21:29] ---
    Oh dear, oh dear. Looks like
    we won't get to hear your song.
[21:32] ---
    Just a little more, and we could have won!
[21:35] ---
    You're amazing, Masato.
[21:36] ---
    It was so close!
[21:37] ---
    I thought it was all over for us.
[21:40] ---
    You were both incredible!
[21:41] ---
    My heart is still pounding.
[21:43] ---
    A spectacular battle, with both fighters
    using up all of their hand cards.
[21:47] ---
    Your Buddyfight surpassed my expectations.
[21:49] ---
    You're up next, Subaru.
[21:51] ---
    I'll be looking forward
    to your semi-final match.
[21:54] ---
    Yuga. You may want to battle against Vile Ranma
    in the finals, but I have no intention of losing.
[22:00] ---
    Right!
[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] ---
    Gar-Heilen.
[22:26] ---
    This Dragon World counter spell can be used by putting
    a Deity Dragon Tribe card from your field to the drop zone.
[22:32] ---
    You can increase your gauge by 4 or
    your life by 4. The choice is up to you!
[22:38] ---
    When you're in a tight spot,
    choose to increase your life.
[22:40] ---
    And when you have the advantage,
    choose to increase your gauge.
[22:43] ---
    It's a counter spell, so you can use it before your
    opponent's impact or attack hits you to withstand the damage.
[22:49] ---
    Make it through the tight spots and find a way
    to gain an advantage in your next turn.
[22:55] ---
    That's how you grasp victory!
[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] ---
    The second semi-final match
    features Subaru and Vile Ranma!
