[00:00] ---
    At long last, the World Buddy Masters
    are about to begin here on Earth,
[00:03] ---
    and the winner will earn the title of
    Buddyfight World Number One!
[00:07] ---
    The stage is our very own
    Cho-Tokyo Buddy Site,
[00:10] ---
    and the matches will be
    simultaneously broadcast live,
[00:12] ---
    all around the planet and in
    all the different worlds!
[00:14] ---
    Open the roof!
[00:17] ---
    Competing in this tournament are the top
    Buddyfighters selected by each world!
[00:23] ---
    Which world will become Number One?
[00:26] ---
    Our expectations are high to the max!
[02:01] ---
    We're here at last!
[02:03] ---
    It's really going to begin!
[02:05] ---
    I'm getting excited!
[02:06] ---
    Gao. You might be the Dragon
    World representative,
[02:10] ---
    but I've also been chosen to bear the
    great honor of representing Dungeon World.
[02:13] ---
    I'm going to be the World Number One.
[02:16] ---
    He's acting too big for his britches!
[02:18] ---
    Especially for a Kitten Shirt!
[02:20] ---
    It's not a kitten! It's a tiger!
[02:22] ---
    You're one to talk! You mere panda!
[02:24] ---
    I'm a Saint Holy Sword Dragon.
[02:27] ---
    Really? With that ice-pop
    stick in your paw?
[02:29] ---
    I told you! This is my Saint Holy Sword!
[02:32] ---
    Is that so.
[02:34] ---
    If I see you on the field,
    I'll defeat you right away.
[02:37] ---
    You're the one who's
    going to be defeated!
[02:39] ---
    You're going to regret saying that.
[02:41] ---
    Gao! The title of World Number One will of
    course go to our own Dragon World!
[02:45] ---
    Yeah! Me and Batzz will
    win that title for sure!
[02:48] ---
    Right, Batzz?
[02:51] ---
    No matter who challenges me,
    I'll be the victor.
[02:56] ---
    Come and have a go if you
    think you're strong enough!
[02:58] ---
    I'll smash you on the spot!
[03:03] ---
    Stop that, Batzz!
[03:05] ---
    We're so sorry.
[03:06] ---
    So very sorry.
[03:07] ---
    Big Boss, you really are the coolest!
[03:10] ---
    Anyhow, that means you're revved
    up and ready to fight, right?
[03:13] ---
    -Come one, come all!
    -Huh?
[03:16] ---
    It's a festival, a festival!
[03:18] ---
    A World Buddy Masters festival!
[03:22] ---
    Dai!
[03:23] ---
    Hey! It's been a while, Gao.
[03:26] ---
    Dai Kaido? Does that mean
    you're the famous...
[03:28] ---
    I'm the Chief of the Ocean!
[03:30] ---
    Ancient World representative, Dai Kaido!
[03:33] ---
    So this is the infamous Demon Lord Dragon.
[03:37] ---
    This is my Buddy, Batzz.
[03:39] ---
    I like the look in his eyes.
[03:41] ---
    I'd expect no less from Gao's Buddy.
[03:44] ---
    Although when it comes to size,
    my Buddy, Duel Jaeger is definitely tops!
[03:49] ---
    You there!
[03:50] ---
    Don't you value your life?
[03:52] ---
    Hey, hey, you cute little mini-dragon.
[03:57] ---
    Everyone, this is a major exclusive!
[03:59] ---
    As we continue our search for the
    legendary Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz,
[04:02] ---
    an adorable mini-dragon
    has appeared before us!
[04:06] ---
    Yo, cut it out, Asmodai.
[04:08] ---
    Tetsuya! Zanya!
[04:10] ---
    Hey! Could you be...
    the Magic World Representative?
[04:14] ---
    Yo, yo, yo!
[04:15] ---
    I'm Tetsuya Kurodake, yo!
[04:17] ---
    My favorite Buddy, Asmodai took
    on a job as a news reporter!
[04:22] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[04:24] ---
    And this person here?
[04:25] ---
    Gao's schoolmate and famous
    Katana World user...
[04:28] ---
    Mister Zanya Kisaragi!
[04:30] ---
    This time, I'm here as a simple spectator.
[04:34] ---
    Oh, I heard about that. I was hoping that
    I'd get to face you in a Buddyfight again...
[04:38] ---
    I wasn't chosen.
[04:40] ---
    That's all there is to it.
[04:42] ---
    By the way, where's Gao's Buddy?
[04:44] ---
    He's right there,
    can't you see him?
[04:46] ---
    My Buddy, Batzz.
[04:48] ---
    Oh, I didn't realize!
    He's just so adorable...
[04:51] ---
    Hey.
[04:52] ---
    Who do you think you're talking to?
[04:54] ---
    Batzz. This is the Magic World
    representative. Demon Lord, Asmodai.
[04:59] ---
    Did you say Demon Lord?
[05:00] ---
    Hey, hey! Let's keep it rockin'!
    Mister Demon Lord Dragon!
[05:04] ---
    Now, let's have you sing a song for us.
[05:07] ---
    Honor us with a tune, Demon Lord!
[05:10] ---
    Go ahead and belt it out!
[05:11] ---
    You talk too much.
[05:13] ---
    Maybe I'll fix it so
    you can't talk at all.
[05:15] ---
    Huh?
[05:17] ---
    Batzz! I told you to stop it!
[05:20] ---
    Yo, you too, Asmodai!
[05:23] ---
    The World Buddy Masters begins!
[05:27] ---
    Thank you for your patience!
[05:29] ---
    It's time for the World Buddy
    Masters opening ceremony!
[05:31] ---
    The live commentary is brought to you by me, Aibo
    Academy Broadcasting Club member Paruko Nanana!
[05:38] ---
    Now, the representatives from the participating
    worlds are making their entrance!
[05:43] ---
    First, let's start with Dragon World, as the
    Buddyfighter and their Buddy monsters come in!
[05:48] ---
    Gao Mikado and Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz!
[05:53] ---
    There he is! Big Boss!
[05:56] ---
    I was worried for a bit, but...
[05:58] ---
    Yeah. It looks like Batzz is going to be okay.
[06:01] ---
    Next, we have Dungeon
    World representative...
[06:03] ---
    Noboru Kodo and Knight
    of Glory, El Quixote!
[06:06] ---
    Star Dragon World representative...
[06:08] ---
    Kanata Ozora!
    Quintessence Crystal Dragon, Athora!
[06:12] ---
    Magic World representative...
[06:13] ---
    Tetsuya Kurodake!
    Demon Lord, Asmodai!
[06:17] ---
    Ancient World representative...
[06:19] ---
    Dai Kaido! Martial Arts Chief,
    Duel Jaeger!
[06:22] ---
    Darkness Dragon World representative...
[06:25] ---
    Gaito Kurouzu, and Annihilation
    Black Death Dragon, Abygale!
[06:28] ---
    Hero World representative...
[06:30] ---
    Ku Teito and Koyomi-Class
    Fifth Fleet, Satsuki!
[06:34] ---
    Legend World representative...
[06:35] ---
    Shosetsu Kirisame!
    Immortal Sword of the King, Durandal!
[06:39] ---
    Danger World representative...
[06:41] ---
    Togari Togeyama!
    Tyrant Diablo!
[06:44] ---
    And last but not least,
    Katana World representative...
[06:46] ---
    Sakate Onigashira!
    Oni Boss, Kid Ibuki!
[06:50] ---
    These competitors, representing ten worlds,
    will be divided into two groups,
[06:55] ---
    A and B, and will enter
    a round robin tournament.
[06:58] ---
    According to the previously drawn lots,
    the participants have been divided thusly.
[07:06] ---
    First, Group A consists
    of these five worlds!
[07:10] ---
    And all other worlds belong to Group B!
[07:13] ---
    Looks like Gao is in Group A.
[07:15] ---
    Kitten Shirt is, too!
[07:16] ---
    Both groups are full of
    challenging opponents.
[07:19] ---
    The winners of Groups A and B will face off in a
    final round that determines the most powerful,
[07:24] ---
    the glorious World Buddy
    Masters Number One!
[07:28] ---
    And the winner will
    receive a splendid prize!
[07:32] ---
    Wh-What is it?
[07:33] ---
    Looks like a card.
[07:36] ---
    Yes! This is it! A legendary card, the only
    one of its kind in the world! The Mirage Card!
[07:41] ---
    Mirage Card?
[07:42] ---
    The only one of its kind in the world?
[07:44] ---
    Rumor has it that it
    has amazing abilities!
[07:47] ---
    But this card's details are completely unknown!
[07:49] ---
    At the moment, its abilities are sealed.
[07:51] ---
    The moment that a winner is declared,
    the seal will be released.
[07:54] ---
    It really highlights the prize nature of
    this super-ultra-mega rare card!
[07:58] ---
    I definitely want that!
[08:00] ---
    Now, it's a festival,
    a festival, a festival!
[08:02] ---
    A rare card festival!
[08:04] ---
    Next, I'll announce the pairing for the first match
    that will be taking place immediately after this.
[08:08] ---
    In Group A, we have Dragon
    World's Gao Mikado versus...
[08:12] ---
    All right! Who's my opponent?
[08:14] ---
    Magic World's Tetsuya Kurodake!
[08:17] ---
    Wow! Right off the bat,
    I'm facing Gao, yo!
[08:21] ---
    This concludes the opening ceremony.
[08:23] ---
    Will all competitors please exit
    the stadium for the moment?
[08:29] ---
    That bluffing blowhard!
[08:34] ---
    I can't believe he mocked me.
[08:37] ---
    Fine, then!
[08:39] ---
    I'll teach him how a
    real demon lord fights!
[08:43] ---
    I'm sure he's talking about Asmodai...
[08:46] ---
    Quickly!
[08:47] ---
    I need to smash him quickly,
    to quell my rage!
[08:51] ---
    Yikes!
[08:52] ---
    He's angry, he's so angry!
[08:55] ---
    I can't just stand here and watch!
[08:57] ---
    First, I'll check out the competition.
[08:59] ---
    Sneak, sneak, sneak...
[09:00] ---
    If I recall correctly, the
    Buddyfighter's waiting room is...
[09:02] ---
    Over here!
[09:05] ---
    There they are.
[09:06] ---
    Asmodai. Do we need this card, yo?
[09:09] ---
    You! What are you doing here?
[09:12] ---
    Ouch...
[09:18] ---
    You... You're that Dragon World
    monster who was with Gao.
[09:26] ---
    Where did they go?
[09:28] ---
    That Batzz and Chibi Panda.
[09:30] ---
    Oh! Look!
[09:32] ---
    Well? Speak up!
[09:34] ---
    You trouble-maker.
[09:36] ---
    Hey! Asmodai!
[09:37] ---
    What are you doing to Chibi Panda?
[09:39] ---
    He was trying to copy our homework.
[09:42] ---
    So I've got to give him a harsh lecture.
[09:46] ---
    We were putting together our deck,
    and he tried to sneak a peek, yo.
[09:50] ---
    Is that true, Chibi Panda?
[09:52] ---
    I didn't know that it wasn't allowed!
[09:55] ---
    I didn't know is no excuse.
[09:57] ---
    We could get disqualified and
    barred from the tournament.
[09:59] ---
    I'm so sorry!
[10:03] ---
    Well, this time we'll consider it a lack of
    supervision by his legal guardian and...
[10:08] ---
    I'll let him off easy.
[10:10] ---
    Big Boss!
[10:11] ---
    Little Demon Lord Dragon, I hope you're
    planning on fighting fair and square.
[10:16] ---
    Don't put me in the same
    category as Chibi Panda!
[10:18] ---
    Prepare yourself for a real fight!
[10:20] ---
    Oh, how scary.
[10:21] ---
    He's like the final boss in a video game.
[10:23] ---
    Gao. Having a guy like him as your
    Buddy must be a lot of trouble.
[10:26] ---
    Gao! Let's make sure we both
    have a good Buddyfight, yo.
[10:29] ---
    I won't go easy on you, yo.
[10:31] ---
    I hear that!
[10:35] ---
    Finally, it's about to begin!
[10:36] ---
    The World Buddy Masters
    launches into a must-see match!
[10:41] ---
    Dragon World!
[10:42] ---
    Gao Mikado!
[10:43] ---
    Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz!
[10:46] ---
    Magic World!
[10:47] ---
    Tetsuya Kurodake!
[10:48] ---
    Fervent Demon Lord Teacher, Asmodai!
[10:53] ---
    The excitement from the local
    supporters must be reaching a fever pitch!
[10:56] ---
    First, Dragon World. Here we go!
[10:59] ---
    Warp successful!
[11:01] ---
    Here we are in Dragon World!
[11:03] ---
    It looks like the crowd is eagerly
    awaiting Gao Mikado's heroics!
[11:07] ---
    Oh?
[11:08] ---
    Aren't you folks going to cheer on
    the representative Buddyfighter?
[11:12] ---
    Long ago, his Buddy did something
    terrible in our very own Dragon World.
[11:16] ---
    Do you know what that is, young missy?
[11:18] ---
    Huh?
[11:19] ---
    We won't accept it!
[11:20] ---
    We'll never accept
    Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz!
[11:24] ---
    Yeah!
[11:24] ---
    That's right!
[11:26] ---
    I-It looks like there are some dissenting
    opinions among some of the dragons...
[11:29] ---
    Meanwhile, let's see how
    things are in Magic World.
[11:31] ---
    Warp!
[11:33] ---
    Warp successful!
[11:35] ---
    Yes! We're in Magic World!
[11:37] ---
    Without even waiting for the Buddyfight to begin,
    they're already totally pumped up!
[11:41] ---
    Now, Gao Mikado and Tetsuya Kurodake.
    What kind of fiery battle will they show us?
[11:46] ---
    Here we go, Batzz!
[11:49] ---
    I'll show them what's what.
[11:51] ---
    Here we go, yo! Asmodai!
[11:52] ---
    Let's see what this Demon
    Lord Dragon can do.
[11:55] ---
    Now, rise before me!
[11:57] ---
    Almighty dragon of them all!
[11:59] ---
    Luminize!
[12:00] ---
    Demon Lord Dragon of Tempest!
[12:04] ---
    Together with a Demon Lord!
[12:05] ---
    Let's study!
[12:06] ---
    Luminize!
[12:07] ---
    Devil's School!
[12:08] ---
    Yo!
[12:11] ---
    All right! World Buddy
    Masters, first match!
[12:14] ---
    Buddy... fight!
[12:16] ---
    Raise the flag!
[12:21] ---
    Dragon World!
[12:23] ---
    Magic World, yo!
[12:25] ---
    All eyes are on this first match, which has turned
    into a Demon Lord showdown, and it's about to begin!
[12:33] ---
    I have the first move, yo!
[12:35] ---
    Charge and draw!
[12:36] ---
    I cast Nice One! And I draw two cards.
[12:39] ---
    Now here I come!
[12:41] ---
    To the center, I call
    Demon Doctor, Buer. Yo!
[12:44] ---
    Due to my effect, his gauge
    increases by one.
[12:48] ---
    I call Demon Realm Architect,
    Gamigin to the left.
[12:51] ---
    Due to my effect, we've got one
    Solomon's Great Barrier ready and complete!
[12:54] ---
    Here you go!
[12:55] ---
    With that, any 72 Pillars monsters
    that were size 2 become size 1!
[13:00] ---
    I'm going to keep going!
[13:01] ---
    To the right, I call
    Dance! Asmodai!
[13:05] ---
    I'm a demon who can sing and dance!
[13:08] ---
    Shall we dance?
[13:10] ---
    Due to Dance! Asmodai's effect,
    my hand cards increase by one, yo!
[13:14] ---
    That's the right answer!
[13:16] ---
    His plan is to increase his hand cards and
    gauge and bring out more and more monsters.
[13:20] ---
    It's impressive for his first
    turn with the first move.
[13:22] ---
    But he can only attack once.
[13:25] ---
    That's true. And Buer, who is in his center, gets
    destroyed at the end of the opponent's turn.
[13:30] ---
    Let's dance with the devil!
[13:32] ---
    Together with me!
[13:34] ---
    Dance elegantly!
[13:35] ---
    Twirl gracefully!
[13:38] ---
    Ugh, this is pathetic, kid.
[13:40] ---
    The fight's just beginning...
[13:43] ---
    Next, perhaps I'll dance with that
    spirited mini-dragon over there.
[13:47] ---
    You're still going to ridicule me?
[13:50] ---
    Forget him!
[13:51] ---
    My turn.
[13:52] ---
    Draw.
[13:54] ---
    Charge and draw!
[13:57] ---
    I equip!
[13:57] ---
    Arc Dragon Sword!
[13:59] ---
    I call Chibi Panda to the left.
[14:03] ---
    I've finally made it to the stage!
[14:06] ---
    Little Chibi Panda!
[14:07] ---
    Is he going to be of any use?
[14:09] ---
    Yeah, he'll be fine.
[14:11] ---
    Each card is included in the deck,
    in order to serve a function. Am I right?
[14:15] ---
    Yeah, that's how it is.
[14:17] ---
    In addition, I Buddy call Demon
    Lord Dragon, Batzz, to the right!
[14:23] ---
    You phony demon lord. I'll crush you!
[14:28] ---
    Here he is!
[14:29] ---
    It's rumored that he once destroyed
    his own homeworld of Dragon World!
[14:33] ---
    Gao Mikado's Buddy! Demon Lord Dragon,
    Batzz has made his appearance!
[14:36] ---
    Huh?
[14:37] ---
    Hey! Batzz!
[14:38] ---
    If you want to get past me,
    you'll have to...
[14:42] ---
    Hey hey, little Demon Lord Dragon.
[14:44] ---
    Don't you need to defeat me too?
[14:47] ---
    Insolent wretch!
[14:49] ---
    As you request,
    I'll obliterate you first!
[14:52] ---
    I cast! Good to Go!
[14:54] ---
    I return Dance!
    Asmodai to my hand!
[14:59] ---
    What a coward.
[15:00] ---
    Is he for real?
[15:02] ---
    What is he doing?
[15:04] ---
    Batzz! You can't do your
    own thing like that.
[15:07] ---
    I just showed him who's the
    strong one. That's all.
[15:10] ---
    But that's not important.
[15:11] ---
    Right now, we're in the
    middle of a Buddyfight!
[15:15] ---
    Chibi Panda!
    Attack the fighter!
[15:17] ---
    Yes, sir!
[15:18] ---
    Fighter...
[15:20] ---
    I'm attacking you!
[15:21] ---
    I cast!
[15:22] ---
    Solomon's Shield, yo.
[15:24] ---
    Hey, hey! That attack didn't hurt,
    it didn't even tickle, yo!
[15:28] ---
    Damn...
[15:30] ---
    Then I'll do it!
[15:34] ---
    Gao Mikado only decreases Tetsuya's
    life a little as his turn ends!
[15:38] ---
    To the center, I call Sky Poet, Amon!
[15:40] ---
    It's been a while.
[15:41] ---
    One more time! I call Dance!
    Asmodai to the right.
[15:46] ---
    When I appear, you can draw one card.
[15:49] ---
    I cast! Mind of Hardcore!
[15:51] ---
    He uses a spell to increase
    his gauge even more!
[15:54] ---
    Take the stage, yo!
[15:55] ---
    I'm ready any time!
[15:57] ---
    Hurry up and show your face already!
[15:59] ---
    I'll grind you into dust.
[16:00] ---
    To the right, I Buddy call
    my favorite Buddy!
[16:03] ---
    Fervent Demon Lord Teacher, Asmodai!
[16:06] ---
    And I return Dance! Asmodai
    to my hand, yo!
[16:09] ---
    He's finally here!
[16:11] ---
    The Fervent Teacher version of Demon Lord,
    Asmodai enters the stage!
[16:14] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting,
    little Demon Lord Dragon.
[16:17] ---
    When I appear, I can
    destroy one enemy monster.
[16:21] ---
    B-B-Big Boss!
[16:23] ---
    I, Chibi Panda, will put
    myself in harm's way!
[16:26] ---
    You've got some guts.
[16:27] ---
    In honor of your courage, you'll be
    the first to take my pop quiz.
[16:31] ---
    What is your function?
[16:33] ---
    I know!
[16:34] ---
    It's to make Dragon World the
    World Number One champion!
[16:37] ---
    Incorrect!
[16:39] ---
    Teacher's going to punish you
    with a Western Lariat of Rage!
[16:42] ---
    What?
[16:46] ---
    Chibi Panda!
[16:48] ---
    You phony Demon Lord!
[16:50] ---
    Hey, you there! Don't get
    up in the middle of a test!
[16:53] ---
    Teacher's going to give you
    a Body Press of Rage!
[16:58] ---
    Dammit. He's making a fool of me!
[17:02] ---
    When I have at least three 72 Pillars cards on my field,
    Teacher Asmodai can destroy one more enemy card!
[17:10] ---
    That's how it is.
[17:11] ---
    Do you understand?
[17:12] ---
    If you don't understand,
    you'll have to take remedial classes.
[17:14] ---
    Well then, here we go, yo!
[17:16] ---
    It's showtime for me!
[17:17] ---
    First, Gamigin and Amon!
    Attack the fighter!
[17:20] ---
    Coming right up!
[17:21] ---
    Let us dance!
[17:24] ---
    Almost there, yo!
[17:25] ---
    Teacher Asmodai, follow them, yo!
[17:28] ---
    Test time is over.
    Your answer sheet is a blank!
[17:31] ---
    Take your studies seriously, Gao Mikado!
[17:34] ---
    Teacher's gonna punish you with...
[17:35] ---
    A knee drop!
[17:38] ---
    Gao Mikado! Thanks to Tetsuya Kurodake's
    series of attacks he's reduced to 3 life before he knows it!
[17:45] ---
    Call me!
[17:46] ---
    Batzz.
[17:47] ---
    Call me, kid!
[17:49] ---
    If I call you, you'll just...
[17:51] ---
    If you don't call me, this is the last
    time I'll Buddyfight for you, kid!
[17:56] ---
    Batzz...
[17:58] ---
    Okay.
[18:00] ---
    You and me are Buddies.
[18:03] ---
    My turn!
[18:05] ---
    Draw!
[18:08] ---
    Charge and...
[18:09] ---
    Draw!
[18:11] ---
    I call Demon Lord Dragon,
    Batzz to the right again.
[18:16] ---
    This time, I'll crush you for sure!
[18:18] ---
    You phony Demon Lord!
[18:19] ---
    Oh no! Big Boss!
    What's going to happen?
[18:22] ---
    I call Famed Military Deviser,
    Fanning to the left!
[18:27] ---
    I'm still on active service.
[18:29] ---
    I cast! A Distinguished Replenisher!
[18:31] ---
    My gauge increases by three...
[18:33] ---
    And I regain 1 life!
[18:38] ---
    Batzz!
[18:39] ---
    There's only one true
    Demon Lord in this world!
[18:43] ---
    Begone, phony Demon Lord!
[18:46] ---
    You're the phony, darn it!
[18:49] ---
    What's that?
    I'm the Demon Lord!
[18:53] ---
    He's out of control!
[18:54] ---
    What does Batzz think he's doing?
[18:56] ---
    Right now, he ought to
    attack the center monster!
[18:58] ---
    Yeah.
[19:02] ---
    And with that, Batzz has used
    up his three attacks, yo!
[19:05] ---
    This is where I turn things around!
[19:07] ---
    Arc Dragon Sword!
[19:10] ---
    Fanning! Follow me!
[19:12] ---
    Leave it to me.
[19:13] ---
    Blow, winds!
    Strike, lightning!
[19:16] ---
    I cast! Solomon's Shield!
[19:19] ---
    I cast! Military Tactics,
    Two-Stage Plan!
[19:21] ---
    What's that?
[19:22] ---
    It's a Spell that can be used at the end of
    a battle in which an attack was nullified.
[19:27] ---
    It lets one monster on your
    field attack a second time.
[19:30] ---
    Fanning, attack the fighter again!
[19:34] ---
    I'm still young at heart!
[19:36] ---
    I won't let that attack hit me, yo!
[19:38] ---
    I cast! Magical Goodbye!
[19:40] ---
    As long as I'm on the field, the enemy can't
    return me to the hand using an effect,
[19:45] ---
    and I can't be forced to rest, either.
[19:47] ---
    Are you serious, yo?
[19:48] ---
    There's nothing I can do, yo!
[19:50] ---
    Now, one more time!
[19:52] ---
    Ha!
[19:56] ---
    Tetsuya Kurodake! In the blink
    of an eye, he's down to 5 life!
[20:03] ---
    Final Phase!
[20:05] ---
    All right. Let's do this, Batzz!
[20:07] ---
    You can do whatever you like now!
[20:49] ---
    Impact!
[20:56] ---
    Thunder Lance!
[20:57] ---
    X Tempest!
[20:59] ---
    Buster!
[21:03] ---
    Game End!
    Winner, Gao Mikado!
[21:06] ---
    After a dramatic turn of events,
    Gao Mikado was the one to seize victory!
[21:10] ---
    All right!
[21:11] ---
    Thank you very much.
[21:16] ---
    A-Amazing!
[21:17] ---
    We won!
[21:19] ---
    That's Gao and Big Boss Batzz for you!
[21:21] ---
    Of course we won.
[21:23] ---
    You're the bestest!
[21:24] ---
    We did it, Batzz.
[21:27] ---
    This time, they just barely managed to win.
[21:30] ---
    But if Batzz won't listen to Gao's directions,
    they'll lose next time for certain.
[21:34] ---
    It seems Gao has chosen one
    troublesome monster as his Buddy.
[21:38] ---
    Well, I'm gonna eat them
    alive, that's for sure!
[21:41] ---
    That was spectacular, yo!
[21:43] ---
    We were defeated.
    But this isn't the end.
[21:47] ---
    That's right, yo!
[21:48] ---
    The Buddy Masters have
    only just begun, yo.
[21:51] ---
    Yeah.
[21:51] ---
    Let's both aim for World
    Number One and do our best.
[21:55] ---
    We're gonna make it to the
    final rounds, you'll see!
[21:57] ---
    Right! I'm looking forward to it!
[22:00] ---
    Of course, I'm just going to win again.
[22:03] ---
    Demon Lord Dragon, Batzz.
[22:04] ---
    What?
[22:05] ---
    When you and Gao Mikado
    truly understand each other,
[22:09] ---
    and become true Buddies,
    you two will unlock your full power.
[22:13] ---
    Me and the kid?
[22:15] ---
    Become true Buddies?
[22:17] ---
    Just kidding!
[22:18] ---
    Stormy and full of drama!
[22:20] ---
    The greatest Buddy Masters of all time!
[22:22] ---
    You can't look away for a moment!
[22:24] ---
    The next Buddyfight will begin at 2 PM
    tomorrow, when we raise the flag!
[22:28] ---
    Star Dragon World versus Danger World!
[22:31] ---
    Followed by Katana World...
[22:33] ---
    Versus Dungeon World!
[22:40] ---
    This is today's most powerful card!
[22:43] ---
    Arc Dragon Sword!
[22:45] ---
    It's a powerful item that can't be
    destroyed by your opponent's effects.
[22:48] ---
    As long as you have this card, all of your
    Thunder Empire monsters get 2000 power.
[22:54] ---
    Break through the center monster and
    back your opponent into a corner!
[22:58] ---
    Now, today we're going to do
    Buddy Rock Paper Scissors again!
[23:00] ---
    Batzz, I'm counting on you!
[23:03] ---
    Buddy Rock Paper Scissors!
    Rock Paper Scissors...
[23:06] ---
    Go!
[23:06] ---
    Don't cheat!
[23:07] ---
    Be sure to play fair and square!
[24:40] ---
    The representatives of the different worlds put their pride
    and honor on the line in a series of amazing matches!
[24:44] ---
    In the middle of all this,
    Noboru's first opponent is...
[24:47] ---
    Don't tell me it's him?
[24:48] ---
    Next episode: Become a Tiger!
    Noboru's Final Fight!
[24:51] ---
