    The Shadow Grand Prix Begins
[01:39] Gu
    Here I go!
[01:46] Gu
    The water's great!
[01:48] Gu
    I love the beach!
[01:51] Gu
    Kai,
[01:53] Gu
    come on in!
[01:55] Gu
    I appreciate the invitation, Hiro,
[01:58] Gu
    but I'm summarizing data
    on how seawater affects Shadowverse players.
[02:05] Gu
    So you're saying that you can't swim.
[02:09] Gu
    I, um...
[02:12] Gu
    I was right. Look how nervous he is.
[02:17] Gu
    More importantly,
    you should read this, Kazuki Shindo!
[02:21] Gu
    Jumping into the ocean without taking
    appropriate precautions is extremely dangerous!
[02:27] Gu
    And extremely foolish!
[02:28] Gu
    Just look at the number of incidents last year.
[02:31] Gu
    Stop!
[02:32] Gu
    We can talk about that later.
[02:35] Gu
    Kazuki, let's race to the beach!
[02:37] Gu
    Yeah!
[02:51] Gi
    They're enjoying themselves.
[02:57] Gi
    It's so pretty.
[03:01] Gu
    I win!
[03:05] Gu
    Dang it!
[03:06] Gu
    K-Kazuki! Your hair!
[03:16] Gu
    What's with all this seaweed?
[03:20] Gu
    A dolphin!
[03:25] Gu
    Why's it following me, y'know?!
[03:28] Gu
    That's likely a young bottlenose dolphin.
[03:32] Gu
    Perhaps it's mistaken Kazuki Shindo
    for a friend and is playing with him.
[03:36] Gu
    Or... it's hungry.
[03:39] Gu
    You're scaring me!
[03:45] Gi
    It's so nice to have a day off.
[03:47] Gu
    Help me!
[03:50] Gi
    Not my problem, I guess.
[04:06] Gi
    It's hard to believe we were battling in
     the National Tournament just the other day.
[04:12] Gu
    Yeah.
[04:13] Gu
    But it's real!

[04:19] Gu
    It was incredible!
[04:22] Gu
    Yeah.
[04:23] Gu
    Yup.
[04:24] Gu
    My body, my heart...
    My whole world was on fire.
[04:29] Gu
    As I gave it everything I had!
[04:35] Gu
    That's Shadowverse!
[04:39] Gu
    You know...
[04:41] Gu
    I've always loved Shadowverse.
[04:44] Gu
    I wanted to play it.
[04:46] Gu
    And then I got my phone.
SIGN    Welcome Hiro
[04:50] Gu
    I was so excited!
[04:53] Gu
    I did so many things!
SIGN    Name: Hiro Ryugasaki
SIGN    Class: Dragoncraft
SIGN    National Tournament Winner
[04:56] Gu
    With this... and with you!
[05:00] Gu
    You made my world so much bigger!
[05:04] Gu
    Shadowverse is so fun, huh?
[05:10] Gu
    I'm writing down what you said.
[05:13] Gu
    Wait, did you really write that down?
[05:16] Gu
    Don't look at my notebook, Kazuki Shindo!
[05:23] Gu
    Hiro!
[05:25] Gu
    Grandpa!
[05:26] Gu
    Where are you, Hiro?
[05:28] Gu
    Why didn't you call me
    when you got there?
[05:31] Gu
    It's Grandpa Shigefumi.
[05:33] Gu
    Where? I told you...
[05:35] Gu
    They sent me on a vacation as a reward
     for winning the National Tournament.
[05:38] Gu
    A vacation? I didn't hear anything
    about a vacation!
[05:41] Gu
    Well, I told you about it!
[05:44] Gu
    Weren't you supposed to be going
    to that Shadow Grand Prix thing?
[05:47] Gu
    I am, but I guess they're holding it
     later somewhere else.
[05:52] Gu
    And they haven't told me where.
[05:55] Gu
    And I just sent a message
    with a photo attached to your smartphone.
[05:59] Gu
    Well, I didn't get it!
[06:02] Gu
    Grandpa, you need to learn
    how to use a smartphone already.
[06:09] Gi
    Hello, Grandpa!
[06:11] Gi
    It's me, Mimori!
[06:13] Gu
    Mimori!
[06:15] Gu
    I've missed you!
[06:16] Gi
    It's good to see you again!
[06:18] Gu
    Are you doing well?
[06:19] Gi
    Yes.
[06:21] Gu
    Grandpa Shigefumi's always
     had a soft spot for Mimori.
[06:24] Gu
    That's right.
[06:26] Gu
    Okay, if we can just wait
    for him to hang up...
[06:29] Gi
    Yes, it's fine.
[06:32] Gi
    Kazuki's with us, too.
[06:33] Gi
    Don't worry!
[06:35] Gi
    I'll come say "hi" again soon, okay?
[06:37] Gu
    Okay, any time you want!
[06:44] Gu
    The Shadow Grand Prix...
[06:46] Gu
    Eiji, where are you?
[06:50] Gu
    Thanks, Mimori.
[06:52] Gu
    What did he say?
[06:53] Gi
    If you bring him back lots of presents,
    he'll forget the whole thing.
[06:58] Gu
    What the heck?
[07:12] Gu
    Wh-What?
[07:19] Gu
    Attention, all players who made it
    through the National Tournament!
[07:23] Gu
    Are you having fun on Genesis Island?
[07:33] Gu
    Seems that you are. Excellent.
[07:37] Gi
    Isn't he the announcer from the
    National Tournament?
[07:41] Gu
    Yup.
[07:42] Gu
    But your fun vacation is over!
[07:46] Gu
    Your vacation is over!
[07:51] Gu
    What does that mean?
[07:52] Gu
    Finalists from tournaments held
    in countries all over the world
[07:58] Gu
    are gathering here at Genesis Island.
[08:02] Gu
    Which means...
[08:06] Gu
    It's time...
[08:09] Gu
    for the Shadow Grand Prix, the tournament
    to decide the world's strongest player!
[08:18] Gu
    O-On this island?
[08:21] Gu
    This island is the site
    of the Shadow Grand Prix?
[08:36] Gu
    Wow, look at that building!
[08:49] Gi
    Welcome, Hiro Ryugasaki, Kazuki Shindo,
    Mimori Amamiya, Kai Ijuin.
[08:57] Gu
    Um... Thanks for having us!
[09:03] Gu
    The others are already here.
[09:06] Gu
    This way, please.
[09:08] ---
    Uh, okay.
[09:09] Gu
    Follow me.
[09:15] Gu
    "The others"? Who do you suppose she means?
[09:18] Gu
    Definitely Shadowverse players of some sort.
[09:23] Gu
    Another one!
[09:25] Gu
    Wow! How many people
     are coming to this island?
[09:30] Gu
    Right?
[09:31] Gu
    Huh?
[09:34] Gu
    Did I get lost?
[09:46] Gi
    Are they all inside?
[09:48] Gi
    No. A few are still left.
[09:50] Gi
    What are you waiting for?
[09:52] Gi
    Do it. Now.
[10:00] Gi
    Hiro! What's wrong?
[10:02] Gi
    The others are this way.
[10:12] Gi
    Did I imagine that?
[10:26] Gi
    Where have you been, Hiro?
[10:28] Gi
    I got lost.
[10:31] Gi
    In that one hallway? Are you joking?
[10:34] Gi
    I know, right?
[10:39] Gi
    There are a lot of people here.
[10:57] Gi
    Is Luca not here?
[11:05] (Flashback) Gi
    You'll be in the Shadow Grand Prix,
    right Luca?
[11:10] (Flashback) Gi
    Will I be able to have more fun next time?
[11:16] Gi
    Luca...
[11:30] Gi
    Everyone, it's time to get started.
[11:34] Gi
    Thank you all for coming
    to the Shadow Grand Prix,
[11:37] Gi
    the battle to determine
    the ultimate Shadowverse player.
[11:46] Gi
    First, we'll tell about this island and
     the rules of the tournament!
SIGN    Lurching Corpse
SIGN    Bloodhungry Matriarch
[12:11] Gu
    This is the world's first island
    purchased and developed
[12:16] Gu
    by the Genesis Company for the purpose
    of playing Shadowverse: Genesis Island!
[12:20] Gu
    That's where we were swimming!
[12:23] Gu
    This island's really big!
[12:26] Gu
    There are facilities like this
    all around the island.
[12:30] Gu
    Players like us are probably
     being gathered from all over.
[12:35] Gu
    Genesis Company's technology has allowed us
[12:39] Gu
    to put many types of modern systems
    around the island.
[12:43] Gu
    One of these is the Virtual Externalizing
    Sharing Ubiquitous System.
[12:50] Gu
    The Vir-what?
[12:52] Gu
    Virtual Externalizing Sharing Ubiquitous System.
[12:56] Gu
    That means a system that's all around us
    and can create holographic projections.
[13:01] Gu
    We call it Versus!
[13:04] Gu
    Oh, Versus!
[13:05] Gu
    Versus! Got it!
[13:09] Gi
    D-Do you really get it?
[13:12] Gu
    Versus is a modification
    of existing VR technology
[13:16] Gu
    that links with a fiber-optic network
    laid all around the island,
[13:19] Gu
    as well as a processing system
    in the central tower,
[13:23] Gu
    allowing the use of VR anywhere on the island
    without the use of special VR gear.
[13:30] Gu
    Like this, for example.
[13:55] Gu
    Seriously?
[13:58] Gi
    Can I touch it?
[14:00] Gi
    You can enjoy incredible battles
    anywhere on the island at any time!
[14:10] Gu
    Versus is amazing!
    It lets you play VR battles anywhere!
[14:14] Gu
    Versus looks so fun!
[14:17] Gi
    Next we will explain the rules
    of the Shadow Grand Prix!
[14:25] Gu
    Okay, it's my turn to present!
[14:29] Gu
    The Shadow Grand Prix uses a point system.
[14:32] Gu
    At the start of the tournament,
    you'll have three points!
[14:36] Gu
    If you can battle your way to ten points,
    you'll go up a rank!
[14:42] Gu
    You'll go from Bronze to Silver,
    then Silver to Gold!
[14:49] Gu
    But...!
[14:51] Gu
    Once you rank up,
    you'll go back to three points!
[14:54] Gu
    So you'll need to get up to ten points again.
[14:58] Gu
    You can only battle players
    of the same rank as you.
[15:03] Gu
    And if you get down to zero points,
    you'll be eliminated,
[15:07] Gu
    and removed from the island!
[15:10] Gu
    And the most important
    thing to keep in mind:
[15:14] Gu
    The top seven players who make it
    to Gold Rank within 24 hours
[15:21] Gu
    will be named Legends and allowed
    to enter the final tournament!
[15:29] Gu
    Seven Legends...
[15:31] Gu
    So only seven of the people here can win?
[15:35] Gi
    And first you'll have earn
     Gold Rank within 24 hours.
[15:40] Gu
    Th-That's really rough!
[15:43] Gu
    That ends the explanation of the rules!
[15:46] Gu
    Get excited, everyone!
[15:51] Gu
    I-I'm not sure I can do it.
[15:55] Gu
    You'll be just fine!
[15:57] Gu
    It looks like tons of fun!
[16:03] Gu
    Hey! What are you doing?
[16:06] Gi
    He said the explanation was over,
[16:08] Gi
    but he forgot some important stuff.
[16:11] Gi
    The prizes. The prize money!
[16:13] Gi
    That's why we're here!
[16:21] Gu
    Prize money?
[16:22] Gu
    Th-That's right.
[16:24] Gu
    He didn't mention anything
    about that, actually.
[16:26] Gu
    What happens if we win?
[16:29] Gu
    I'm very sorry.
[16:31] Gu
    The prize of the tournament is...
SIGN    Grand Prix Winner
[16:34] Gu
    The Grand Prix Winner will be given the title
    of CEO of the Genesis Company.
[16:37] Gu
    Genesis Company CEO
[16:41] Gu
    What the hell?
[16:43] Gu
    Th-The CEO? What does that mean?
[16:46] Gu
    What it says.
[16:53] Gi
    If we win, we get
    the Genesis Company itself.
[16:59] Gu
    Correct.
[17:00] Gu
    The instant you win, you're the new CEO.
[17:04] Gu
    You get everything I own.
[17:11] Gu
    I don't understand.
[17:13] Gu
    Why would you do that?
[17:15] Gu
    There's nothing in it for you.
[17:17] Gu
    There is.
[17:27] Gu
    There's something needed in order
    to operate, manage, and grow Shadowverse.
[17:33] Gu
    Love.
[17:35] Gu
    Love for Shadowverse.
[17:39] [SONG] Gu
    Sacred Leo
[17:49] Gu
    I love Shadowverse.
[17:52] Gu
    If someone loves it more than I do,
    I want them to have it all.
[18:00] Gu
    That's why I brought you here.
[18:05] Gu
    To ascertain your love for Shadowverse.
[18:08] Gu
    To find the one who Shadowverse loves.
[18:12] Gu
    Best of luck, young ones.
[18:15] Gu
    You'll be the one
    to make the next Shadowverse.
[18:25] Gu
    I think I heard something really big.
[18:29] Gu
    Yeah... "CEO," he says?
[18:33] Gi
    I can't imagine it, can you?
[18:36] Gu
    Genesis Company...
    It has a market cap of ten trillion dollars!
[18:41] Gu
    Okay, let's sell it!
[18:43] Gu
    That's more than enough money
    to have a few years of fun.
[18:49] Gu
    Hey, who do you think you are,
    putting your elbows on my head?
[18:53] Gu
    You should apologize.
[18:56] Gu
    Oh, you're strong for someone so small.
[19:00] Gu
    You should get smaller.
[19:02] Gu
    If you don't want to end up as our target.
[19:09] Gu
    Who are those two?
[19:11] Gu
    The Joubert Sisters?
[19:13] Gu
    Even people like them?
[19:16] Gu
    I've heard they'll do anything for money.
[19:18] Gu
    I don't want them coming after me.
[19:20] Gu
    They're famous, I guess.
[19:24] Gu
    Are they your type, Hiro?
[19:29] Gu
    Are they?
[19:32] Gu
    Don't write it down, Kai!
    It's not true!
[19:35] Gu
    But... I don't know if they're famous.
[19:39] Gu
    I think I can't lose to them.
[19:42] Gu
    All players will now be transported to
     various points throughout the island.
[19:47] Gu
    Please come forward
    when we call your name.
[19:50] Gu
    It's time.
[19:53] Gu
    Let's each become one of the seven!
[19:55] ---
    Yeah!
[20:13] Gu
    Am I going to run into anybody out here?
[20:18] Gu
    I think there's a map in my phone.
[20:22] Gu
    So this is me?
[20:24] Gu
    Is there anyone nearby?
[20:31] Gu
    All the players are in place!

    we'll ban you from the tournament!
[20:59] Gu
