**[00:10] Gu**
All that matters to me is being stronger.
**[00:14] Gu**
I'll become stronger to
save Shiori. That's all.
**[00:18] Gu**
Luca...
**[00:19] Gu**
I'm not interested in anything else.
**[00:23] Gu**
How could I be?
**[00:25] Gu**
It's useless, Hiro.
Your words won't reach me.
**[00:35] Gu**
There it is!
**[00:38] Gu**
Luca's powerful combo!
**[00:40] Gu**
If he can stay in Vengeance,
he'll win for sure!
**[00:44] Gu**
* If Hiro can't do something,*
* he's got no hope of winning!*
**[00:49] Gu**
Can Hiro Ryugasaki turn it around?
**[00:58] Gu**
I will!
**[00:59] Gu**
You never know who'll win
Shadowverse until its over!
**[01:08] Gu**
My turn! Draw!
***SIGN*** Episode 12
Who Will Claim Victory?
**[01:12] Gu**
I play Glacial Dragon!
**[01:19] Gu**
*He plays a Glacial Dragon!*
**[01:29] Gu**
I end my turn!
**[01:30] Gu**
* It did 1 damage to all followers*
* and destroyed the Forest Bats!*
**[01:36] Gu**
My turn. Draw.
**[01:40] Gu**
I play the spell card Savage Hunt.
**[01:46] Gu**
Destroy one enemy follower.
**[01:51] Gu**
If I'm in Vengeance mode
when playing this card, I draw a card.
**[01:57] Gu**
And then I play two followers.
**[01:59] Gu**
Nightmare and Venomous Cobra.
**[02:01] Gu**
In Vengeance mode,
**[02:03] Gu**
Nightmare's attack goes up by 2,
and Venomous Cobra gets Bane.
**[02:10] Gu**
Scarlet Vampire, attack the leader!
**[02:19] Gu**
I end my turn.
**[02:21] Gu**
It's useless, Hiro. No matter what you do.
**[02:25] Gu**
It's not! I'll never give up!
**[02:29] Gu**
My turn! Draw!
**[02:32] Gu**
Conflagration!
**[02:35] Gu**
That's 4 damage to all followers!
**[02:44] Gu**
Then I play Twin-Headed Dragon!
**[02:49] Gu**
In Overflow, its attack goes up 3!
**[02:53] Gu**
Wow! Hiro's turned the tables once more!
**[02:57] Gu**
He pushed back his enemy with a powerful play
**[03:00] Gu**
and then played an Overflow follower
on top of that!
**[03:03] Gu**
I'll teach you how fun
and exciting Shadowverse can be!
**[03:09] Gu**
It's useless!
**[03:11] Gu**
We won't know until we try, right?
**[03:14] Gu**
This is stupid.
**[03:15] Gu**
To me, Shadowverse is a tool!
**[03:18] Gu**
I'm not like you, Hiro!
***SIGN*** Dark Emperor
**[03:21] Gu**
The hour of vengeance is now,
Dark Emperor!
**[03:27] Gu**
*A-Amazing!*
**[03:30] Gu**
*At last, it's here!*
**[03:32] Gu**
*Luca's ultimate card, the Dark Emperor!*
**[03:44] Gu**
When this follower enters play,
**[03:46] Gu**
if Vengeance is activated,
it destroys two enemy followers.
**[03:51] Gu**
And that's not all.
**[03:52] Gu**
You should remember.
**[03:54] (Flashback) Gu**
You can't damage him with spells.
**[03:58] (Flashback) Gu**
Dark Emperor's card ability stops him
from taking damage or being destroyed.
**[04:03] Gu**
That follower's strong!
**[04:06] Gu**
It has Last Words if it's destroyed.
It does 5 damage to its leader.
**[04:13] Gu**
Not that it's possible.
**[04:20] Gu**
*Luca played Veight, Vampire Noble!*
**[04:23] Gu**
*This follower has Ward and protects him!*
**[04:26] Gu**
Your words won't reach me, Hiro!
**[04:30] Gu**
H-He's strong.
Far stronger than when he battled me.
**[04:35] Gu**
That's Luca Yonazuki playing for real!
**[04:38] Gu**
H-Hiro's in danger, you know?
**[04:41] Gi**
He's strong, but...
**[04:44] Gi**
Hiro... Hiro won't lose, no matter what!
**[04:49] Gu**
Why, Luca?
**[04:51] Gu**
Why are you...
**[04:55] Gu**
in such pain as you fight?
**[04:59] Gu**
It doesn't matter to you.
**[05:23] (Flashback) Gi**
Mom!
**[05:26] (Flashback) Gi**
Mom...
**[05:26] (Flashback) Gu**
Shiori...
**[05:28] (Flashback) Gu**
Mom... Dad...
**[05:34] (Flashback) Gu**
I'm so sorry about what happened.
**[05:37] (Flashback) Gu**
We'll take care of you. Don't worry.
**[05:43] (Flashback) Gi**
Your parents did so much for us.
**[05:47] (Flashback) Gi**
I'm not taking care of those little brats.
**[05:51] (Flashback) Gu**
I know. Don't worry.
**[05:54] (Flashback) Gu**
I'm just after the fortune
they're going to inherit.
**[05:58] (Flashback) Gu**
They're just little kids.
They'll be easy to trick.
**[06:04] (Flashback) Gi**
All right, then.
**[06:07] (Flashback) Gi**
I'm scared. What will happen?
**[06:11] (Flashback) Gu**
Don't worry!
**[06:13] (Flashback) Gu**
I'll protect you!
**[06:17] (Flashback) Gu**
Shiori?
**[06:21] (Flashback) Gu**
Shiori!
**[06:23] (Flashback) Gu**
Please! Help her!
**[06:26] (Flashback) Gu**
We don't have the money.
**[06:30] (Flashback) Gi**
Don't you know
how much it costs to raise you?
**[06:35] Gu**
*There is no kindness in this world.*
**[06:42] Gu**
*All there is...*
***SIGN*** Shiori Yonazuki
***SIGN*** Fukunosuke Kato
***SIGN*** Haru Machida
***SIGN*** Kono Onoda
**[07:05] Gu**
* A new card-battling game*
* from the Genesis Company: Shadowverse!*
**[07:12] Gu**
* Its highly competitive gameplay*
* is loved by fans all over the world!*
**[07:16] Gu**
* And tournaments with big prizes*
* are being held all over the world!*
**[07:22] Gu**
* By playing Shadowverse,*
* you could become a millionaire!*
**[07:28] (Flashback) Gu**
Shadowverse...
I could use this to save Shiori.
**[07:35] Gu**
All there is in this world is pain.
**[07:39] Gu**
No sorrow. No fun.
**[07:42] Gu**
Shadowverse is just a tool.
**[07:44] Gu**
A tool that might save me and Shiori!
**[07:49] Gu**
That doesn't make sense!
**[07:51] Gu**
Shadowverse is going to save you, right?
**[07:54] Gu**
So why...
**[07:58] Gu**
* Hiro Ryugasaki gains 3 defense*
* and draws two cards!*
**[08:06] Gu**
Why can you say it's a tool?
**[08:08] Gu**
To you, Shadowverse is...
**[08:12] Gu**
To you, it's important, isn't it?
**[08:16] Gu**
*He played a Shield Dragon!*
**[08:18] Gu**
* In Overflow, it does 2 damage*
* to an enemy follower!*
**[08:27] Gu**
*Hiro played a powerful follower!*
**[08:30] Gu**
* He destroyed Veight*
* and got a Ward of his own!*
**[08:35] Gu**
You understand nothing.
**[08:37] Gu**
You couldn't!
**[08:39] Gu**
Yeah, I don't.
**[08:40] Gu**
But I don't want to see you battling
with that look on your face!
**[08:46] Gu**
I know you love Shadowverse!
**[08:50] Gu**
You're pissing me off.
**[08:52] Gu**
My turn!
**[08:54] Gu**
Begone forever! Revelation!
**[09:14] Gu**
Powerful!
**[09:16] Gu**
*The powerful Bloodcraft spell, Revelation!*
**[09:19] Gu**
*It does 8 damage to all followers,*
**[09:23] Gu**
*and in Vengeance, it only costs 4 PP to play!*
**[09:28] Gu**
* And Luca's Dark Emperor doesn't take*
* effect-based damage, so it's still standing!*
**[09:35] Gu**
Even as I stand here, Shiori, my sister,
is suffering from her illness!
**[09:43] Gu**
She's suffering alone!
**[09:45] Gu**
She's miserable!
**[09:49] Gu**
Shadowverse is fun? You like Shadowverse?
**[09:53] Gu**
So what?
**[10:00] Gu**
Hiro, I'll keep saying it.
**[10:03] Gu**
Shadowverse is my tool. That's all.
**[10:06] Gu**
Then...
**[10:08] Gu**
Then I'll keep saying it, too!
**[10:12] Gu**
Shadowverse will save you, right?
**[10:15] Gu**
It'll be what saves you, right?
**[10:19] Gu**
So I don't want you
to make that face when you battle!
**[10:23] Gu**
I want you to enjoy the game you care about!
**[10:28] Gu**
I play Bejeweled Dragon!
**[10:30] Gu**
In Overflow, it lets me add a follower
that was destroyed last turn to my hand!
***SIGN*** Piercing Roar
***SIGN*** Shield Dragon
**[10:37] Gu**
I play Shield Dragon again!
**[10:41] Gu**
And its ability does 2 damage
to your Demonhand Assassin!
**[10:50] Gu**
*Piercing Roar...*
**[10:52] Gu**
* If I use this spell card,*
* I can power up one of my followers.*
**[10:58] Gu**
*But not now.*
**[11:00] Gu**
*It's not enough to end this!*
**[11:03] Gu**
I also play Imprisoned Dragon!
**[11:08] Gu**
* Hiro plays more followers with Ward*
* to enhance his defenses!*
**[11:11] Gu**
*But will it be enough?*
**[11:14] Gu**
Whether you win or lose,
**[11:16] Gu**
if you give it your all,
Shadowverse is fun!
**[11:19] Gu**
You end the game with a smile!
**[11:22] Gu**
Which means that you really...
**[11:25] Gu**
Who cares whether you enjoy it?
**[11:27] Gu**
What happens if you enjoy it?
**[11:29] Gu**
That won't...
That won't save Shiori!
**[11:36] Gu**
Blood Rage!
**[11:47] Gu**
I'm not done yet!
**[11:48] Gu**
Come forth! Ice Blade Warfiend!
**[11:51] Gu**
*A powerful follower has entered play!*
**[11:55] Gu**
*Ice Blade Warfiend!*
**[11:57] Gu**
It has Rush, so it can attack immediately!
**[12:04] Gu**
Hiro... I don't have the right
to enjoy Shadowverse!
**[12:09] Gu**
Attack!
**[12:15] Gu**
Who decided that?
**[12:19] Gu**
Who else? I did!
**[12:22] Gu**
Ice Blade Warfiend's effect activates!
**[12:25] Gu**
When an enemy follower is destroyed,
I draw a card!
**[12:29] Gu**
And then I attack you with Dark Emperor!
**[12:43] Gu**
How could I?
**[12:44] Gu**
My sister... Shiori... is suffering!
**[12:48] Gu**
How could I enjoy Shadowverse?
**[12:54] Gu**
Then does your sister...
want you to look like that?
**[13:02] Gu**
Does she want you to look so sad?
**[13:08] (Flashback) Gi**
I'm worried...
Because... you don't smile anymore.
**[13:15] Gu**
You don't... You don't know anything!
**[13:19] Gu**
I don't! That's why I want to understand!
**[13:31] Gu**
Enough. That's enough.
***SIGN*** Razory Claw
**[13:35] Gu**
I-Is that...
**[13:37] Gu**
That's bad.
**[13:38] Gi**
Hiro!
**[13:40] Gu**
Razory Claw...
***SIGN*** Ice Blade Warfiend
***SIGN*** Glacial Dragon
**[13:55] Gu**
*Wh-What's this?*
***SIGN*** Razory Claw
**[13:58] Gu**
* The card he drew with Ice Blade Warfiend*
* was Razory Claw!*
**[14:02] Gu**
* That spell can deal 3 damage*
* to an enemy follower or leader!*
**[14:07] Gu**
He's out of play points for this turn,
so he can't use it yet,
**[14:12] Gu**
*but he can use it next turn!*
**[14:14] Gu**
*And Hiro's remaining defense is...*
**[14:17] Gu**
You have 3 defense remaining.
**[14:20] Gu**
If I use Razory Claw next turn, it's over.
**[14:27] Gu**
Hiro... I'll defeat you.
**[14:30] Gu**
And then never let me see you again.
**[14:33] Gu**
You make me think.
**[14:36] Gu**
And I don't have time to think!
**[14:40] Gu**
I end my turn, Hiro.
**[14:42] Gu**
Now let's end it!
**[14:44] Gu**
* This is the last turn*
* of this long, long battle!*
**[14:48] Gu**
*The last turn, for better or for worse!*
**[14:50] Gu**
*Let's hear it for both of these players!*
**[15:01] Gu**
That's right.
**[15:04] Gu**
Let's end it, Luca!
**[15:07] Gu**
I'm ending this now!
**[15:10] Gu**
Howl, Ignis Dragon!
**[15:16] Gu**
*There it is!*
**[15:18] Gu**
* At the very last moment,*
* Hiro plays his ultimate card!*
**[15:24] Gu**
Why?
**[15:26] Gu**
Why don't you give up?
**[15:28] Gu**
Why don't you fall?
**[15:29] Gu**
Why else? If I give up... If I fall...
**[15:34] Gu**
You'll never change! You'll be sad forever!
**[15:38] Gu**
And I refuse to let that happen!
**[15:44] Gu**
Spell Card, Piercing Roar!
**[15:48] Gu**
This spell gives Ignis Dragon a new power!
**[15:55] Gu**
What? What is that power?
**[15:58] Gu**
When Ignis Dragon destroys
an enemy follower,
**[16:02] Gu**
it damages the enemy leader an amount equal
to that follower's attack!
**[16:07] Gu**
It's payback time, Luca!
**[16:10] Gu**
I'll defeat you and save you!
**[16:15] Gu**
Nonsense!
**[16:18] Gu**
Here I go, Luca!
**[16:20] Gu**
Hiro!
**[16:55] Gu**
Wonderful!
**[17:13] Gu**
Piercing Roar's effect means that you take
damage equal to Dark Emperor's attack!
**[17:23] Gu**
And with Dark Emperor's Last Words,
you take 5 damage!
**[17:38] Gu**
I see.
**[17:39] Gu**
So I lost.
**[17:43] Gu**
Yeah. I won!
**[17:47] Gu**
Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-The battle is over!
**[17:52] Gu**
What an incredible battle!
**[17:55] Gu**
The winner of this amazing tournament is...
**[17:59] Gu**
*The winner is...*
**[18:01] Gu**
*The winner is Hiro Ryugasaki!*
**[18:12] Gu**
You did it, you know?
**[18:13] Gu**
You won, Hiro!
**[18:16] Gi**
You did it, Hiro!
**[18:18] Gu**
That's Hiro-san for you.
**[18:25] Gu**
That's what I was hoping for.
**[18:32] Gi**
*See you later, Big Brother.*
**[18:35] Gu**
The winner of the Shadowverse National Tournament
**[18:37] Gu**
is the rookie player Hiro Ryugasaki!
**[18:45] Gu**
*What an incredible battle!*
**[18:55] Gu**
That was the best battle yet,
**[18:57] Gu**
right, Luca?
**[19:00] Gu**
Maybe.
**[19:02] Gu**
I won today, but let's play again.
**[19:05] Gu**
This time we can laugh more
and have more fun!
**[19:09] Gu**
Because that's what Shadowverse is, right?
**[19:12] Gu**
You're strong, Hiro.
**[19:14] Gu**
Far stronger than me.
**[19:31] Gu**
I remember you!
**[19:33] (Flashback) Gu**
I can!
It all belongs to me.
**[19:38] Gu**
*Hello, everyone. I am Leon Aurenche,*
**[19:42] Gu**
* the CEO of Genesis Company,*
* developers of Shadowverse.*
**[19:46] Gu**
*Call me "CEO Leon"!*
**[19:50] Gu**
If he's the CEO, that means
he's the most important guy, right?
**[19:54] Gu**
Wow!
**[19:56] Gu**
Do you know him?
**[19:57] Gi**
Kind of... It's thanks to him
that we were able to be in the tournament.
**[20:05] Gu**
* First, a round of applause*
* for Hiro Ryugasaki, today's winner.*
**[20:12] Gu**
* He's shown us passion,*
* courage, and possibilities!*
**[20:17] Gu**
*But he may not be the winner tomorrow!*
**[20:21] Gu**
* Because this National Tournament*
* was just the beginning.*
**[20:31] Gu**
* The next tournament is one that will shock*
* the whole world, not just one country!*
**[20:39] Gu**
* The ultimate battle,*
* the likes of which has never been seen!*
**[20:44] Gu**
* Gather, strong warriors!*
* Come forth, chosen ones!*
**[20:49] Gu**
*I, Leon Aurenche, declare here...*
**[20:53] Gu**
*that we will be holding the Shadow Grand Prix!*
**[21:04] Gu**
The Shadow... Grand Prix?
**[22:43] Gu**
I'm off!
**[22:48] Gu**
Grandpa, I'm off!
**[22:52] Gu**
Bye!
**[22:55] Gu**
*I should've known this would happen.*
**[22:58] Gu**
Eiji, is this what you want?
**[23:10] Gu**
Okay, let's go!
**[23:12] Gu**
To the Shadow Grand Prix!
**[23:24] Gu**

**[23:26] [SONG] ---**
Bejeweled Dragon

Today's card is the Bejeweled Dragon!
**[23:30] Gu**
A powerful follower who reveals
its true abilities during Overflow.
**[23:33] Gu**
Is it like me?
**[23:35] Gu**
No.
