**[00:00] ---**
Bal is going to pull out Bal's sword!
**[00:02] ---**
Not a winner?
**[00:03] ---**
-Bal, bal, bal...
-What's going on?
**[00:05] ---**
-Bal, bal, bal...
-The sword isn't coming out at all!
**[00:07] ---**
All right! I'm a winner!
**[00:08] ---**
I won a trip to Hawaii!
**[00:10] ---**
Yay!
**[00:10] ---**
Yay!
**[00:11] ---**
Ahh...
**[00:12] ---**
-That's not what I meant!
-Just pull out your sword!
**[00:15] ---**
The greatest Buddyfighter in the world!
**[00:18] ---**
The WBC Cup has begun, and the winner will
be the Buddy Champion, B! Hot!
**[00:25] ---**
In the first match of the Cho-Tokyo
Championship Quarterfinals,
**[00:27] ---**
Tasuku Ryuenji defeated Masuka Raid
and entered the ranks of the Best 4!
**[00:31] ---**
Who will be the next to join the Best 4?
**[00:34] ---**
Quarterfinals! Gaito Kurouzu versus Wataru Kageo!
**[00:40] ---**
Meow!
**[02:14] ---**
I'm going to do the final tuning of my deck.
**[02:17] ---**
Don't let anyone near this place.
**[02:20] ---**
I understand. Gaito...
**[02:23] ---**
Are you going to use that thing?
**[02:26] ---**
Four Black Dragon Shields. Two Abyss Symphony cards.
Two Black Revenger cards. Four Gale Scythe cards.
**[02:34] ---**
What? The Stolen Impact Monster!
**[02:40] ---**
I can't eat any more...
**[02:43] ---**
Bal's tummy is full too, bal.
**[02:46] ---**
Mom, you went overboard!
**[02:49] ---**
I'm sorry! But this sure is a problem.
**[02:52] ---**
We can't waste food, but...
**[02:55] ---**
Poke, poke.
**[02:56] ---**
Huh?
**[02:57] ---**
Whisper, whisper.
**[02:59] ---**
Oh! Grandma says that we should share
the bounty with everyone!
**[03:03] ---**
That sounds like a great idea!
**[03:07] ---**
Jack! This isn't much, bal.
**[03:10] ---**
Huh?
**[03:11] ---**
Bal learned that's what you're supposed to say, bal!
**[03:14] ---**
Oh. Thank you.
**[03:17] ---**
But that really is a whole lot of pizza.
**[03:20] ---**
We have to give all of these away before
the next fight begins.
**[03:25] ---**
Gao! Let's go to the next person, bal!
**[03:27] ---**
Hey, wait for me!
**[03:30] ---**
If that Tasuku Ryuenji is in the Best 4...
**[03:34] ---**
I need to be in the Best 4 too.
**[03:39] ---**
Full Liberate Cannon!
Shoot!
**[03:52] ---**
Jack & Fang, Blade mode!
**[04:00] ---**
That's where I'll get my revenge on him
for that humiliation!
**[04:05] ---**
In order to grant your wish, we need to
defeat Gaito Kurouzu first.
**[04:12] ---**
I know that.
That's why I have this favor to ask of you.
**[04:16] ---**
Ask away.
Leave it all to me, Silhouette Joe!
**[04:34] ---**
Peek...
I didn't anticipate a guard.
**[04:38] ---**
Abygale!
**[04:41] ---**
This isn't much, bal!
**[04:43] ---**
And what's this?
**[04:44] ---**
Pizza, bal!
**[04:45] ---**
You see, my mom made way too many of these...
**[04:49] ---**
Where's Gaito, bal?
**[04:51] ---**
He's in the middle of fine-tuning his deck.
**[04:54] ---**
Bal can't see Gaito, bal?
**[04:56] ---**
There's nothing we can do about it.
Let's go home, Bal.
**[04:59] ---**
But...
**[05:01] ---**
There are many things that you have to
take care of before a Buddyfight.
**[05:05] ---**
But... Bal really wants Gaito to eat the "isn't much"!
**[05:11] ---**
Hey!
**[05:11] ---**
You can't, Bal!
**[05:13] ---**
This is my chance!
**[05:15] ---**
Let Bal through, bal!
**[05:16] ---**
No!
**[05:18] ---**
Bal!
**[05:21] ---**
-Bal Punch!
-What?
**[05:24] ---**
Gaito!
**[05:26] ---**
What?
**[05:27] ---**
This isn't much, bal!
**[05:29] ---**
Bal insists on giving this to you.
**[05:33] ---**
I thought I told you not to let anyone past you.
**[05:36] ---**
Sorry.
**[05:37] ---**
Bal just wants Gaito to eat this pizza, bal.
**[05:40] ---**
Don't want it.
Get out of my sight.
**[05:44] ---**
S-Sorry to interrupt you, Gaito.
**[05:47] ---**
Did you use your Buddy to try
and snoop at my deck?
**[05:50] ---**
No!
**[05:51] ---**
As long as I have this Impact Monster, I won't lose.
**[05:55] ---**
We were just trying to...
**[05:58] ---**
You guys are going to enter the WBC Cup too?
**[06:01] ---**
If we end up facing each other,
let's make it the best Buddyfight ever!
**[06:05] ---**
Bal and Gao won't lose, bal!
**[06:07] ---**
The best Buddyfight ever, you say?
**[06:10] ---**
Buddyfight is no mere game.
**[06:13] ---**
Back then, when you said that
Buddyfight wasn't a game...
**[06:17] ---**
It's been bothering me ever since.
**[06:21] ---**
Now's the time!
**[06:25] ---**
The Impact Monster card!
**[06:27] ---**
I'll be taking this!
**[06:29] ---**
Stop!
**[06:31] ---**
Give Gaito's card back, bal!
**[06:33] ---**
As long as he doesn't have this,
he can't use his Impact Monster!
**[06:38] ---**
That's the monster from back when...
**[06:41] ---**
He's the one who tried to frame Bal, bal!
**[06:46] ---**
There's no possible culprit other than Bal!
**[06:50] ---**
Who is that right there?
**[06:53] ---**
He's the one who destroyed everyone's lunches...
**[06:56] ---**
He's the true culprit, who tried
to frame Bal for his crimes!
**[07:00] ---**
Why would you do something like this, bal?
**[07:02] ---**
Give that back!
**[07:04] ---**
Don't wanna!
**[07:10] ---**
He got away?
**[07:11] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:12] ---**
S-Sorry.
**[07:15] ---**
It's not Gao's fault, bal.
**[07:17] ---**
Bal...
**[07:19] ---**
Gao said, "Let's go home", bal.
**[07:21] ---**
But Bal wouldn't listen, bal.
**[07:26] ---**
So, it's Bal's fault, bal.
**[07:33] ---**
In a few moments, the second match will begin!
**[07:36] ---**
Buddyfighters and team mates, please stand by!
**[07:39] ---**
We're going, Abygale.
**[07:41] ---**
Gaito!
**[07:42] ---**
Are you going to try and fight
without an Impact Monster, bal?
**[07:47] ---**
This has nothing to do with you two.
**[07:50] ---**
No. We're going to get back your
Impact Monster, whatever it takes.
**[07:55] ---**
We'll get it back before your fight begins, for sure!
**[07:58] ---**
Bal!
**[07:59] ---**
Bal knows, bal!
**[08:01] ---**
Bal will look for it using this, bal!
**[08:04] ---**
Oh, Senior Tasuku! Sorry, but we need your help!
**[08:08] ---**
Bal will get it back for sure, bal!
**[08:11] ---**
Gao!
**[08:12] ---**
Bal!
**[08:13] ---**
Bal is trying to figure out which
direction he's in right now.
**[08:16] ---**
That way, bal!
**[08:17] ---**
We're got to act fast!
**[08:18] ---**
Right!
**[08:24] ---**
Bal and Gao must be running around
desperately right now.
**[08:29] ---**
Even if I don't have that card,
my victory is still inevitable.
**[08:37] ---**
Stop!
**[08:39] ---**
Give it back, bal!
**[08:42] ---**
Oh!
**[08:43] ---**
This is as far as you're getting!
**[08:44] ---**
Surrender and give back the card, bal!
**[08:49] ---**
Sure, I'll give it back.
**[08:52] ---**
Bal!
**[08:53] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[08:54] ---**
You're so naive.
**[09:02] ---**
Farewell.
**[09:04] ---**
Jack!
**[09:06] ---**
I'm sorry. I let my guard down.
**[09:08] ---**
What now? It's going to be hard to find
the card before the match begins.
**[09:16] ---**
That's...
**[09:17] ---**
Hey!
**[09:19] ---**
What are you guys doing in a place like this?
**[09:23] ---**
Dai Kaido!
**[09:26] ---**
First, eat up!
**[09:28] ---**
I caught these fish myself!
**[09:30] ---**
We're grateful for your generosity, but...
**[09:33] ---**
It'll take some time before they figure
out where the card is, right?
**[09:37] ---**
They say you can't do anything
on an empty stomach!
**[09:41] ---**
In that case, I'd be happy to have some!
**[09:46] ---**
Whoa!
This is great!
**[09:49] ---**
Turtle?
**[09:49] ---**
Turtle?
**[09:50] ---**
Turtle?
**[09:50] ---**
All right!
**[09:52] ---**
Time for a festival!
A festival of a feast!
**[09:56] ---**
Roger that, turtle!
**[09:58] ---**
First, we'll cook this, turtle.
**[10:00] ---**
I've never seen seaweed like that before, turtle.
**[10:02] ---**
Is it safe to eat, turtle?
**[10:04] ---**
It's probably fine, turtle.
**[10:06] ---**
Bring it over, quickly!
**[10:09] ---**
So good!
**[10:13] ---**
All right! Here's our special seaweed salad, turtle!
**[10:15] ---**
Wow! This is delicious too! So good!
**[10:19] ---**
We've got something!
**[10:22] ---**
The Impact Monster card is under this spot, bal!
**[10:26] ---**
All right! Now it's my turn!
**[10:30] ---**
Crossing silver waves and golden waves...
**[10:34] ---**
Filling someone's belly with seafood!
**[10:39] ---**
The Mighty Ocean Fighter is here!
**[10:43] ---**
The Mighty Ocean Fighter?
**[10:45] ---**
It's a festival, a festival!
**[10:49] ---**
WBC Cup Cho-Tokyo Championship Quarterfinals,
second match!
**[10:54] ---**
The battle between Wataru Kageo and
Gaito Kurouzu is finally here!
**[11:00] ---**
Those scum. I'll make them pay.
**[11:04] ---**
Now, let's have a fair fight!
Gaito Kurouzu.
**[11:11] ---**
He crossed a line he shouldn't have crossed.
**[11:15] ---**
Oh my. What's wrong?
You look so scary right now.
**[11:21] ---**
I'll teach him a lesson.
**[11:28] ---**
He's been down there for a while.
**[11:29] ---**
Maybe something went wrong.
**[11:31] ---**
I can't just stand here and wait!
**[11:32] ---**
Gao!
**[11:33] ---**
Wait!
**[11:35] ---**
Huh?
Whoa!
**[11:37] ---**
Did you find it, bal?
**[11:39] ---**
Yeah!
It's a big catch!
**[11:42] ---**
Bal was asking about the card, not the fish, bal!
**[11:45] ---**
Oh, you mean this?
**[11:47] ---**
Hooray, bal!
**[11:49] ---**
Thank you, bal!
**[11:50] ---**
Whew...thank goodness...
Now we can give the Impact Monster back to Gaito.
**[11:56] ---**
-No. We won't make it in time. The fight has already begun.
-Turtle, turtle, turtle...
**[12:00] ---**
The dark hour has begun...
**[12:03] ---**
Luminize, Hollow Black Dragon.
**[12:08] ---**
A stage brimming with fantasy and magic,
let the show begin!
**[12:12] ---**
Luminize! Silhouette Theater Troupe!
**[12:15] ---**
Buddy...
**[12:17] ---**
Fight!
**[12:19] ---**
Raise the flag!
**[12:21] ---**
Darkness Dragon World.
**[12:25] ---**
Magic World.
**[12:28] ---**
The first move goes to Gaito Kurouzu!
**[12:34] ---**
Charge and draw.
**[12:36] ---**
Come forth from the deep darkness!
**[12:38] ---**
I pay 1 gauge and 1 life to equip!
**[12:43] ---**
Death Dragon Sickle, Gale Scythe!
**[12:48] ---**
His deck doesn't have an Impact Monster in it.
My victory is a sure thing.
**[12:56] ---**
I cast! Black Drain!
**[13:05] ---**
He destroys cards in Wataru's deck,
and increases his own gauge by 1!
**[13:08] ---**
The critical of Gale Scythe becomes 3 when my
opponent has three or more cards in the drop zone.
**[13:16] ---**
My turn is over.
**[13:17] ---**
You won't be able to keep up
the tough-guy act for long.
**[13:20] ---**
The real star of this fight will be
Gaito Kurouzu's Impact Monster, B!
**[13:27] ---**
That's not true. It's my turn!
Draw!
**[13:32] ---**
Charge and draw!
**[13:34] ---**
I pay 2 gauge and Buddy call to the center,
Illusionist of Shadowform, Silhouette Joe!
**[13:41] ---**
It's showtime!
**[13:45] ---**
Now, this is where my illusion magic really begins!
**[13:48] ---**
Successive cast!
Two Trick or Tricks in a row!
**[13:54] ---**
Right now, Silhouette Joe has five cards in his soul.
I place all of these soul cards in the drop zone...
**[13:58] ---**
and now I'll show you Silhouette Joe's true ability!
**[14:06] ---**
Wh-What's this? A gigantic shadow has
appeared behind Gaito Kurouzu!
**[14:11] ---**
Gaito!
**[14:14] ---**
6 damage?
**[14:16] ---**
Shouldn't that be 2 damage,
from using 2 or more soul cards?
**[14:22] ---**
That's right! However, if there are 5 or more soul cards,
I can deal 6 damage to my opponent!
**[14:28] ---**
Now, moving right along...
**[14:31] ---**
I call to the left! Silhouette Balun!
I call to the right! Silhouette Leon!
**[14:37] ---**
Silhouette Balun! Attack the fighter!
**[14:40] ---**
Shadows have no such things as hearts...
Is that what you still think?
**[14:44] ---**
Trick Bat!
**[14:48] ---**
Silhouette Leon! Attack the fighter!
**[14:51] ---**
Shadows have no such thing as life...
Is that what you still think?
**[14:55] ---**
Surprise Bird!
**[14:59] ---**
Silhouette Joe! Finish him with your attack!
**[15:03] ---**
Silhouette Illusion!
**[15:05] ---**
Gaito mustn't lose, bal!
**[15:09] ---**
I cast! Midnight Shadow!
**[15:12] ---**
He survived! Gaito Kurouzu has
managed to survive with 1 life left!
**[15:17] ---**
My turn ends.
**[15:19] ---**
Even so, Gaito Kurouzu has 1 life. I have 8 life.
My position in the Best 4 is all but decided.
**[15:27] ---**
It looks like Bal and his friends
managed to get it back for us.
**[15:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:32] ---**
Unless he defeats Wataru Kageo during this turn,
I can see no way for Gaito to win, B.
**[15:38] ---**
Oh? My eyes, my eyes! My eyes!
**[15:40] ---**
Hey! You there! Don't drop your eyeballs like that!
**[15:44] ---**
Gaito is going to lose, all because of Bal, bal...
**[15:47] ---**
Bal...
**[15:49] ---**
It's Bal's fault, bal.
**[15:54] ---**
He's crying...for me?
**[15:58] ---**
Bal!
**[16:00] ---**
There's no need for you to cry.
**[16:02] ---**
Bal?
**[16:04] ---**
The one who should really cry...
**[16:08] ---**
Is him!
**[16:09] ---**
Huh?
**[16:10] ---**
Bring my destiny...my victory!
**[16:14] ---**
Draw! Charge...
And draw!
**[16:20] ---**
Gaito...
**[16:21] ---**
Could it be? Are you...
**[16:23] ---**
To the left, I call Black Sleepless City, Dimmborgil.
**[16:26] ---**
Give me commands!
**[16:28] ---**
Dark whirlwind that carries death.
I pay 1 gauge and Buddy call to the right!
**[16:33] ---**
Black Death Dragon, Abygale!
**[16:37] ---**
I discard one card from my hand and
activate Abygale's ability!
**[16:41] ---**
Wind of Atonement!
**[16:45] ---**
It's time for me to say farewell!
**[16:49] ---**
And I destroy two cards from your deck.
**[16:51] ---**
The spell The Shade and Silhouette Balun
have been sent to the drop zone!
**[16:56] ---**
Dimmborgil! Attack the fighter!
**[17:00] ---**
Death to the weak!
**[17:04] ---**
Follow him, Abygale!
**[17:06] ---**
You cheating scum.
Prepare yourself for defeat!
**[17:10] ---**
Gale Claw!
**[17:14] ---**
I'll destroy you.
**[17:17] ---**
I cast! Solomon's Shield!
**[17:19] ---**
I think that right now,
Gaito might be fighting for Bal's sake.
**[17:23] ---**
Gaito?
**[17:24] ---**
Fighting for Bal?
**[17:26] ---**
Gaito! Abygale!
**[17:29] ---**
It looks like you're out of options.
Now, announce that your turn is over.
**[17:37] ---**
Then I'll do you the favor of finishing you off.
**[17:40] ---**
It seems that Gaito wasn't able to draw his
Impact Monster, Abygale Vanishing Death Hole, B.
**[17:47] ---**
Ah, what a pity. His fight ends here.
**[17:50] ---**
You should be happy.
I'll test out Abygale's new power on you.
**[17:57] ---**
It can't be!
You shouldn't be able to do an Impact call right now!
**[18:02] ---**
Here we go, Abygale!
**[18:03] ---**
Right!
**[18:05] ---**
Final Phase!
**[18:07] ---**
Huh? They're going to do a Final Phase after all?
**[18:11] ---**
Bal?
**[18:12] ---**
Did he say Final Phase?
**[18:13] ---**
What's going on?
**[18:14] ---**
Could it be?
**[18:16] ---**
Impact call to the center!
**[18:18] ---**
I pay 3 gauge and transform Abygale
into an Impact Monster!
**[18:25] ---**
I let down my guard and was surprised earlier, but
finally we get to see Vanishing Death Hole, B!
**[18:31] ---**
Abygale is now a size 3 monster with 8000 power,
7000 defense, and a critical of 2.
**[18:37] ---**
I activate his ability!
**[18:43] ---**
What? Is it just me, or is this different from
Vanishing Death Hole?
**[18:48] ---**
Meow meow meow?
**[18:50] ---**
Now you will learn Gaito's true power!
**[18:56] ---**
I send 10 cards from your deck to the drop zone.
**[18:59] ---**
And if you have over 20 cards in your drop zone,
I deal 2 damage, and gain 2 life.
**[19:09] ---**
Give us your cards and your life!
**[19:13] ---**
Whoa! Wataru has lost 10 cards
from his deck and lost 2 life!
**[19:19] ---**
Offer your soul to the dark whirlwind!
**[19:23] ---**
Defeat is your destiny.
**[19:27] ---**
Now, surrender yourself to destiny!
**[19:30] ---**
Unlimited Death Drain!
**[19:36] ---**
Game End! Winner, Gaito Kurouzu!
**[19:40] ---**
I never expected a new Impact Monster!
This is just too much!
**[19:45] ---**
Pop Pop!
**[19:48] ---**
Gaito Kurouzu is headed to the Best 4!
**[19:51] ---**
He defeated Wataru Kageo
with a spectacular victory!
**[19:53] ---**
What will we do about him?
**[19:55] ---**
Leave him be. He's less than trash now.
**[20:00] ---**
I can't believe that I, the great Wataru,
couldn't make it past the Best 8!
**[20:08] ---**
Gaito! Abygale!
**[20:11] ---**
Sorry we were late, bal!
**[20:13] ---**
Here, bal!
**[20:16] ---**
You've been a great help.
I thank you.
**[20:18] ---**
Bal should be thanking you, bal!
Gaito got mad for Bal's sake, bal!
**[20:24] ---**
You misunderstand.
**[20:25] ---**
Bal?
**[20:26] ---**
This victory is to help us become the strongest.
**[20:31] ---**
It wasn't for the two of you.
**[20:33] ---**
Gaito.
**[20:35] ---**
That's right. This new power of mine was born so
that I could become the strongest Black Dragon.
**[20:54] ---**
Something is happening to my body.
**[21:00] ---**
What's wrong?
**[21:10] ---**
Abygale!
**[21:12] ---**
That appearance...!
**[21:19] ---**
I will become stronger and stronger still.
**[21:22] ---**
And I will become the Black Dragon
that surpasses Azi Dahaka.
**[21:26] ---**
In any case, I'm glad you were able to win!
**[21:29] ---**
I never guessed that you had
a second Impact Monster card!
**[21:33] ---**
The next person to get hit with
Abygale Unlimited Death Drain...
**[21:38] ---**
Will be you, Gao Mikado.
**[21:41] ---**
However, that's only if you can make it to the Best 4.
**[21:45] ---**
I'm looking forward to it!
**[21:47] ---**
We're going to win the next fight for sure,
and beat Gaito and Abygale too, bal!
**[21:55] ---**
We've found them!
**[21:59] ---**
Everyone who's ever humiliated us will
disappear from this world.
**[22:05] ---**
Voila!
**[22:07] ---**
This Shadow Hole is linked to a realm of Shadows.
**[22:11] ---**
Once someone falls in,
they might never be able to return.
**[22:16] ---**
All we have to do is drop them in here.
**[22:19] ---**
Drop who in?
**[22:20] ---**
Huh?
**[22:22] ---**
I won't forgive anyone who tries to twist
my fate, no matter who they might be.
**[22:35] ---**
H-Help me!
I was wrong! Please! I...
**[22:43] ---**
He manipulated the shadows,
and then was devoured by them himself.
**[22:49] ---**
That was his destiny.
**[22:55] ---**
Today's winning card!
**[22:57] ---**
Abygale, "Unlimited Death Drain!"
**[22:59] ---**
It destroys 10 cards from the opponent's deck!
**[23:01] ---**
If your opponent has over 20 cards in the drop zone,
it deals 2 damage and gives you 2 life!
**[23:06] ---**
And it can deal 2 damage with an attack too!
**[23:08] ---**
That's going too far, bal!
**[24:40] ---**
Gao! The next fight is Bal and Gao's fight, bal!
**[24:43] ---**
Wait, why do you look like that, bal?
**[24:44] ---**
Sick? With a disease that humans can't cure?
**[24:47] ---**
Next episode, "Yikes! An Unexpected Fishy Disaster!"
**[24:51] ---**
Buddyfight, bal!
