    I just feel as though
    there's not enough time...
[02:25] Marguerite
    Now that the Arc is here,
    in our hands.

[06:35] Light
    Not bad.
[06:37] Light
    And you are?
[06:38] Subaru
    Subaru Makabe!
[06:40] Subaru
    Nice to meet you!
[06:41] Light
    Nice to meet you.
[06:42] Light
    I'm Light Tenryu.
[06:44] Subaru
    We don't get many transfer students
    this time of year.
[06:47] Subaru
    Did you win a tournament or something?
[06:49] Light
    A tournament? No...
[06:51] Students
    I was wondering, too.
[06:53] Students
    Are you a pro already?
[06:55] Students
    Yeah, I could see it!
[06:56] Students
    Show us your Shadowverse ranking!
[06:58] Light
    My Shadowverse ranking?
[07:00] Light
    Okay.
[07:01] Students
    Yes!
[07:04] Students
    Let's see...
[07:07] Subaru
    D Rank?
[07:09] Subaru
    That's the lowest rank!
[07:11] Light
    Yeah? Well, that makes sense.
[07:13] Light
    I've never played Shadowverse
    in my life.
[07:18] Light
    Is that bad?
[07:18] All
    Yes, it's bad.
[07:22] Light
    Shadowverse Battle College
[07:24] Light
    is a place where the next generation
    of Shadowverse players train!
[07:28] Light
    There are normal classes, sure,
    but the main goal is to train at Shadowverse.
[07:32] Light
    Not everybody wants to go pro.
[07:35] Light
    But this is my rank,
    and I don't even try that hard.
[07:39] Light
    I see.
[07:40] Subaru
    So I've never met a total beginner.
[07:43] Subaru
    How'd you get here, Light?
[07:46] Light
    The train and the bus.
[07:47] Subaru
    No! No!
[07:49] Subaru
    How did a beginner
    get through the exams?
[07:52] Light
    Oh, probably thanks to that man.
[07:55] TV
    ...will not be forgiven!
[07:56] (Flashback) Sister
    Here you go!
[07:57] (Flashback) Mom
    Light, could you run
    an errand for me?
[08:01] (Flashback) Mom
    We're out of soy sauce.
[08:03] (Flashback) Light
    Yeah. Got it.
[08:05] (Flashback) Sister
    No!
[08:07] (Flashback) Sister
    I want to play

[08:12] (Flashback) Light
    Don't worry. I'll be right back.

[08:25] (Flashback) Wolfram
    You were chosen, Light Tenryu.
[08:29] (Flashback) Light
    I don't understand.
[08:32] (Flashback) Light
    And how do you know my name?
[08:34] (Flashback) Wolfram
    Take it.
[08:39] (Flashback) Light
    Who are you?
[08:41] (Flashback) Wolfram
    Wolfram Zerga.
[08:43] (Flashback) Wolfram
    Light Tenryu, the chosen one.
[08:47] (Flashback) Wolfram
    Come, if you wish to know your fate.
[08:49] (Flashback) Wolfram
    To the Shadowverse Battle College...
[08:55] Light
    I came here to know my fate.
[08:58] Subaru
    Wait. "That man" is Wolfram Zerga?
[09:03] Light
    That's the name he gave me.
[09:05] Light
    Do you know him?
[09:06] Subaru
    Know him?
    Of course I do, he's—
[09:08] Subaru
    Wait!

[09:29] Light
    A second-year middle-school student
    who is loved by his parents.
[09:32] Light
    I'm best at keeping my promises.
[09:34] Light
    I'm worst at anything mechanical.
[09:36] Light
    I'm a boy who knows nothing
    about this school, or Shadowverse.
[09:40] Light
    I may cause problems for you all.
[09:43] Light
    But please be kind to me.
[09:45] Subaru
    I don't understand you,
    but you don't seem like a bad guy.
[09:49] Subaru
    Okay, I'll show you around
    the school over lunch!
[09:54] Light
    I am grateful.

    Lighten up a little, Light.
[09:59] Light
    Got it. Thanks, Subaru.

    How about this?
[10:28] Background
    Storm? Again?
[10:33] Light
    Everybody's playing Shadowverse.
[10:36] Subaru
    Yup. Classes here are language, math,
    English, science, social studies, and shadow.
[10:41] Light
    "Shadow"?
[10:43] Subaru
    Shadowverse!
[10:44] Subaru
    Oh, there it is.
[10:47] Subaru
    This is the students-only
    Shadowverse stadium.
[10:50] Subaru
    Students can use it any time,
    and it has all the latest equipment.
[10:55] Subaru
    This is the sports field.
    You need strength to play Shadowverse.
[10:59] Subaru
    And in the annex,
    there are a lot of special classrooms.
[11:05] Subaru
    Though the place we visit most
    in the annex is the cafeteria.
[11:08] Subaru
    It's got a great vending machine corner!
[11:11] Subaru
    The library's here, too.
[11:14] Subaru
    And this is our main building.
[11:18] Subaru
    This is the teacher's office.
    You don't want to come here.
[11:22] Subaru
    And our classroom.
[11:24] Subaru
    The bicycle parking lot's here.
[11:26] Subaru
    You can come on a bike,
    if you want.
[11:28] Subaru
    And this is the dorm.
[11:30] Subaru
    I never come here,
    since I commute from home.
[11:33] Subaru
    But this place is huge,
    and there are a lot of places I don't know.
[11:37] Subaru
    Oh, are you commuting from home?
[11:39] Light
    Nope. I'll be staying in the dorm.
[11:41] Subaru
    Oh, I see.
[11:42] Subaru
    They're really strict about rules and curfew,
    so be careful.
[11:46] Light
    Got it.
[11:50] Light
    What's this?
[11:53] Subaru
    Oh, a statue of a legendary card.
[11:56] Subaru
    There are seven in the school.
[11:59] Subaru
    About three years ago...
[12:04] Subaru
    There was something called the "Tree of Woe"
    that showed up in Nekome-cho
[12:07] Subaru
    and almost destroyed the world.
[12:10] Subaru
    But the legendary cards saved us.
[12:14] Subaru
    That's what the CEO of the
    Genesis Corporation says.
[12:16] Subaru
    None of us remember it.
[12:18] Light
    Why here?
[12:20] Subaru
    The cards were so powerful that their owners
    talked about what to do with them.
[12:26] Subaru
    At Wolfram's urging, they decided
    to seal them in statues on the grounds.
[12:31] Light
    I see.
[12:33] Subaru
    Wolfram's amazing.
[12:35] Subaru
    He founded this school to train players
    in case the Tree of Woe ever returns.
[12:42] Subaru
    He's one of the Seven Shadows—
    the seven top players.
[12:46] Light
    I see.
[12:52] Light
    Thanks. I know a lot more now.
[12:55] Subaru
    Good to hear.
[12:57] Subaru
    Any questions?
[12:59] Light
    Two.
[13:01] Light
    First...
[13:02] Subaru
    Yeah?
[13:03] Light
    What are those weird floating things?
[13:08] Subaru
    The DigiFriends?
[13:10] Light
    "DigiFriends"?
[13:11] Subaru
    Like this.
[13:21] Subaru
    Digital Friends,
    or DigiFriends for short.
[13:23] Subaru
    They got really popular a bit ago.
[13:25] Subaru
    They're Shadowverse cards
    and partners you can communicate with.
[13:29] Subaru
    They start off as gold rares,
[13:31] Subaru
    but if you keep being friends with them,
    they'll eventually become legendary cards!
[13:36] Subaru
    Not that I've ever seen it happen.
[13:38] Light
    I see.
[13:41] Light
    They're very cute.
[13:44] Light
    Can you converse with them?
[13:46] Subaru
    You can't have a conversation,
[13:47] Subaru
    but they seem to know
    what you're saying.
[13:53] Subaru
    What's your other question?
[13:55] Light
    Oh, um...
    What do I do to learn Shadowverse?
[13:59] Subaru
    Oh, you're ready to try it, huh?
[14:01] Light
    Very ready.
[14:03] Light
    This school supposedly has something
    to do with my "fate."
[14:07] Light
    So I think I should give
     Shadowverse my all.
[14:11] Subaru
    Good stuff.
[14:13] Subaru
    Join a Shadowverse Club, then.
[14:16] Light
    A "Shadowverse Club"?
[14:17] Subaru
    Yeah. Shadowverse College exists
    to train Shadowverse players.
[14:21] Subaru
    But you can join any club
    or team you want.
[14:23] Subaru
    Like the tennis team,
    the soccer team, the swim team.
[14:26] Subaru
    And people like me, who like Shadowverse,
    but don't want to go pro,
[14:29] Subaru
    we don't join any club at all.
[14:33] Subaru
    But if you're serious enough
    about Shadowverse to want to go pro,
[14:36] Subaru
    you join a Shadowverse Club.
[14:39] Light
    Got it.
[14:39] Subaru
    There are seven clubs.
[14:42] Subaru
    If you want to use your brain,
    there's Sixth Magic.
[14:45] Subaru
    Shinobu Miki, the club president,
    is a little weird.
[14:49] Subaru
    If power's your thing,
    there's Fifth Sword.
[14:51] Subaru
    They're big into physical activity, though.
[14:54] Subaru
    Fourth Wind is nice,
    if you want peace and relaxation.
[14:58] Subaru
    Fuwari Hahajima, their president,
    is super nice!
[15:02] Subaru
    Third Feather is...
[15:04] Subaru
    Not for everybody, I guess.
[15:07] Subaru
    And don't get any ideas
    about joining First Reaper.
[15:10] Subaru
    Haruma Hazeura, their president,
    is bad news.
[15:14] Subaru
    That's all of them, I guess.
[15:16] Light
    Aren't there seven Shadowverse Clubs?
[15:19] Light
    What about the other two?
[15:21] Subaru
    Well, some stuff happened.
    Now there are only five.
[15:25] Subaru
    And that "stuff" is why nobody's really
    into hardcore Shadowverse right now.
[15:31] Subaru
    I'd recommend Fourth Wind,
    where you can take it easy.
[15:35] Light
    I see.
[15:37] Subaru
    Anyway, let's go check out
    a Shadowverse Club after school.
[15:42] Light
    You'll come with me?
[15:44] Subaru
    You seem like you could use the help.
[15:47] Subaru
    I'll hang out with you
    till you're settled in.
[15:49] Light
    Good.
[15:51] Light
    I've made a good friend.
[15:54] Subaru
    Friend?
[15:56] Light
    Was that wrong?
[16:00] Subaru
    No, it wasn't.
[16:02] Subaru
    I'm your first friend!
[16:11] Haruma
    Are we done?
[16:13] Haruma
    This is the end, then!

    Fourth Wind?
[17:32] Subaru
    Or Fifth Sword?
[17:34] Subaru
    Sixth Magic... is a no.
[17:37] Subaru
    Well, I guess it could be anywhere.
[17:39] Light
    No.
[17:40] Light
    I've actually already decided
    which club I'm joining.
[17:47] Subaru
    Light, where are we going?
[17:50] Subaru
    There's no Shadowverse Club here—

    Listen to me!

    So we just need to find three this week.
[20:22] Itsuki
    Yeah. You're right!
[20:24] Subaru
    That's so nice...
[20:26] Subaru
    Wait, Light!
[20:28] Subaru
    Doesn't that mean I'm joining, too?
[20:31] Light
    Yeah.
[20:31] Subaru
    Not "yeah"!
[20:33] Subaru
    Why me, too?
[20:34] Light
    "I'll hang out with you
    till you're settled in," you said.
[20:38] Light
    Subaru, you said
    that you're my first friend.
[20:43] Light
    I just got here and know no one.
[20:47] Light
    You're all I can count on. So...
[20:54] Subaru
    That's not fair!
[20:56] Subaru
    Fine. Fine!
[20:58] Subaru
    But I won't do anything!
[21:01] Subaru
    I'll be on the roster,
    but never show up.
[21:03] Subaru
    That's okay, right?
[21:04] Itsuki
    Yeah, that's just fine.
[21:07] Light
    Thank you, Subaru.
[21:08] Subaru
    That was practically a threat,
     you know?
[21:10] Light
    Let me introduce myself again.
    I'm Light Tenryu from class 2-1.
[21:14] Subaru
    I'm a second-year student, too.
[21:15] Subaru
    So, um...
    You don't have to be so formal, right?
[21:19] Subaru
    I'm Itsuki Mitsutagawa.
[21:22] Subaru
    Glad to have you.
[21:23] Light
    Thanks.
[21:38] Subaru
    Right, right. Handshake, right?
[21:40] Subaru
    Okay. I'm Subaru Makabe.
[21:43] Subaru
    I won't show up,
    but nice to meet you.
[21:45] Itsuki
    Yeah, thanks.
[21:47] Light
    Itsuki, Subaru. Thank you.
