[00:30] Mikado
    What is this pain?
[00:39] Mikado
    Why did I... A second battle...

[02:25] Draconir
    Mikado looked like he was in pain.
[02:28] Light
    Yeah.
[02:30] Draconir
    I've always thought he was just a jerk.
[02:33] Draconir
    But I do feel a little bad for him.
[02:37] Draconir
    Light, what will you do?
[02:39] Light
    I...
[02:45] Subaru
    Hey, boss.
[02:46] Light
    Subaru.
[02:47] Subaru
    What's going on where you're at?
[02:49] Light
    Mikado went off on his own.
[02:52] Subaru
    Yup, figures.
[02:54] Subaru
    So are you coming back? We'll wait for you.
[02:57] Light
    Well, um...
[03:00] Draconir
    Light...
[03:03] Light
    No, I'll go with Mikado.
[03:05] Light
    Go on without me.
[03:06] Subaru
    Sure thing.
[03:07] Light
    Sorry. Tell the others for me.
[03:09] Subaru
    Nah, it's fine. You do crazy
    stuff like this all the time.
[03:14] Light
    Yeah. Be careful.
[03:17] Light
    You're worried about Mikado, too, aren't you?
[03:20] Light
    Okay, got it.
[03:23] Light
    Then, we're friends.
[03:25] Light
    Will you help me talk to Mikado?
[03:32] Itsuki
    What did Light say?
[03:33] Subaru
    He'll be a while 'cause he's got
    to bring back our scary chairman.
[03:37] Itsuki
    I'm amazed he can worry
    about Chairman Shirogane.
[03:41] Itsuki
    I'm still a little scared of him, I think.
[03:44] Subaru
    That's normal. He's the weird one.
[03:48] Itsuki
    That's just like Light, though.
[03:50] Subaru
    Yeah, too much like him.
[03:51] Subaru
    Well, let's go on without him, I guess.
[03:57] Subaru
    Our next opponent is a
    Shadowcraft player, right?
[04:01] Tsubasa
    It's kind of cold.
[04:02] Ren
    I bet there's ghosts here!
[04:04] Shion
    Ghosts?
[04:05] Ren
    Don't worry, Shion!
[04:07] Ren
    Even if we do see any ghosts,
    I'll defeat them with my punches.
[04:11] Tsubasa
    You can't beat a ghost by punching it.
[04:12] Ren
    What? You can't?
[04:14] Tsubasa
    I don't actually know.
[04:15] Ren
    Let's give it a try then!
[04:17] Tsubasa
    We don't need to try it.
[04:20] Ryoga
    You're all just noise.
[04:26] Ryoga
    You guys can take on whoever's here.
[04:29] Ryoga
    But Wolfram Zerga's my prey.
[04:32] Ryoga
    Don't try to fight him.
[04:37] Itsuki
    Make sure Ryoga doesn't
    do anything silly, okay?
[04:43] Subaru
    Team "Us" has already split up, huh?
[04:48] Ren
    But our hearts are one!
    We all want to defeat the Seven Shadows!
[04:52] Tsubasa
    You're way too positive.
[04:55] Subaru
    Well, let's get going ourselves.
[05:02] Ren
    We're still in the Shadow Area,
    but it feels totally different here.
[05:06] Ren
    The place we were just in
     was more fu... futur...
[05:11] Shion
    Futuristic.
[05:12] Ren
    Yeah, that's the word!
[05:14] Ren
    Hey, Shion! You'll get lost if you fall behind.
[05:17] Shion
    I will not! I'm not a little kid.
[05:20] Ren
    But it's dark. Maybe we should hold hands.
[05:27] Subaru
    I never imagined we'd go through all this.
[05:32] Subaru
    Remember when we were just trying to
    stop Seventh Flame from being shut down?
[05:40] Subaru
    Tsubasa?
[05:42] Tsubasa
    Oh, sorry. I wasn't listening.
[05:44] Subaru
    What's on your mind that's making
    you wrinkle up your face like that?
[05:49] Tsubasa
    Huh?
[05:50] Tsubasa
    Where are there wrinkles on my face?
[05:53] Subaru
    Why do you have such a
    pretty look on your face?
[05:57] Tsubasa
    No reason.
[06:08] Ren
    This is the place, right?
[06:10] Itsuki
    It should be.
[06:12] Subaru
    Hey, Shadowcraft player!
[06:16] Subaru
    Where are you?
[06:18] Subaru
    Are they not here?
[06:34] Subaru
    Y-You're kidding me!
[06:36] Itsuki
    Ms. Andrea?
[06:38] Andrea
    So you made it all the way here.
[06:41] Itsuki
    I knew she was a grandmaster and that
    there was more to her than met the eye, but...
[06:46] Ren
    I thought you were our teacher
    at Shadowverse College!
[06:50] Andrea
    I was just doing that
    because Wolfram told me to.
[06:54] Tsubasa
    So this is your real job?
[06:57] Andrea
    I don't even know.
    This might not be my real job.
[07:01] Andrea
    So I guess I'm supposed
    to battle one of you.
[07:06] Tsubasa
    I'll do it.
[07:08] Andrea
    I see.
[07:11] Tsubasa
    Sorry. It's okay, right?
[07:13] Itsuki
    Yeah. Go for it.
[07:15] Subaru
    Okay, we'll go on without you.
[07:17] Ren
    Good luck, Tsubasa!
[07:21] Tsubasa
    Thanks.
[07:28] Tsubasa
    This time, I'm going to win, ma'am.
[07:32] Andrea
    I'm glad to see you so enthusiastic.
[07:34] Andrea
    But I'm not a schoolteacher right now.
[07:38] Andrea
    So I might not be very nice.
[07:41] Tsubasa
    That's fine.
[07:43] Tsubasa
    I need to face you at your full power.
[07:46] Tsubasa
    Battle!
[07:46] Tsubasa
    Battle!

    Tanzanite Convictor
[08:13] Tsubasa
    I'll go first!
[08:15] Tsubasa
    Draw!
[08:18] Tsubasa
    I play Cat's Eye Gardener with Crystallize.
[08:24] Tsubasa
    I end my turn.
[08:25] Andrea
    Hm? You didn't have that card before, I believe.
[08:28] Tsubasa
    Right. I reorganized
    my deck after I lost to you.
[08:32] Andrea
    I see. You've been working hard.
[08:35] Andrea
    I play Gloomy Gravedigger.
[08:39] Tsubasa
    That one's new, too, isn't it?
[08:43] Andrea
    Gloomy Gravedigger's effect activates.
[08:49] Andrea
    I bury two cards from my hand.
[08:56] Tsubasa
    "Bury"?
[08:58] Andrea
    An effect that strips a follower of
    its abilities, plays it, then destroys it.
[09:02] Andrea
    I end my turn.
[09:04] Andrea
    Gloomy Gravedigger's effect activates.
[09:07] Andrea
    At the end of my turn,
    for Necromancy 1, I draw a card.
[09:11] Andrea
    Your turn.
[09:12] Tsubasa
    Right!
[09:13] Tsubasa
    Draw!
[09:15] Tsubasa
    At the start of my turn, Cat's Eye Gardener's
     countdown advances by 1.
[09:20] Tsubasa
    And then...
[09:22] Tsubasa
    That follower is bad news.
    It might draw her a card each turn.
[09:26] Tsubasa
    But I don't have anything
    that can get rid of it.
[09:29] Tsubasa
    In that case...
[09:30] Tsubasa
    I play Jeweled Priestess.
[09:35] Tsubasa
    Its effect triggers.
[09:39] Tsubasa
    I can choose either a White Diamond or
     Black Diamond and add it to my hand.
[09:44] Tsubasa
    I choose this one.
[09:48] Tsubasa
    I end my turn.
[09:50] Andrea
    Draw.
[09:53] Andrea
    The sixth angel descends upon the earth.
[09:59] Andrea
    Come forth, armies of condemnation.
[10:03] Andrea
    Soul Legion.
[10:05] Andrea
    Soul Legion's effect activates,
[10:08] Andrea
    summoning a follower with
    cost 3 or less from my deck,
[10:12] Andrea
    stripping it of its abilities,
    and destroying it.
[10:16] Andrea
    Gloomy Gravedigger attacks your leader.
[10:22] Andrea
    I end my turn.
[10:24] Andrea
    Gloomy Gravedigger's effect lets me
     draw a card for Necromancy 1.
[10:29] Tsubasa
    My turn! Draw!
[10:33] Tsubasa
    First, Cat's Eye Gardener's
    countdown drops by 1.
[10:37] Tsubasa
    Emerald Maiden!
[10:40] Tsubasa
    Jeweled Priestess attacks
    Gloomy Gravedigger.
[10:47] Tsubasa
    I end my turn,
    and Emerald Maiden's effect triggers,
[10:51] Tsubasa
    giving Ward to a random
    follower at the end of my turn.
[10:57] Andrea
    You're good. As always.
[11:02] Andrea
    Spell Card: Regenerate Spirit.
[11:05] Andrea
    It has Reanimate 3.
[11:07] Andrea
    This effect puts a copy
    of the card in my graveyard
[11:11] Andrea
    with the highest cost equal or lower
    than the Reanimate value into play.
[11:17] Tsubasa
    The Soul Sniper that
    Soul Legion destroyed! And...
[11:21] Andrea
    Yes.
[11:22] Andrea
    Soul Legion's effect triggers as well.
[11:25] Andrea
    When a follower of mine
    enters play due to Reanimate,
[11:30] Andrea
    it gives it Rush.
[11:33] Andrea
    First, Soul Sniper attacks Emerald Maiden.
[11:37] Andrea
    Its on-attack effect does 1 damage
    to all enemy followers and your leader.
[11:47] Andrea
    Next, it attacks your follower.
[11:55] Andrea
    And then, Soul Legion attacks your leader.
[12:02] Andrea
    I end my turn.
[12:04] Tsubasa
    You're strong, ma'am.
[12:06] Andrea
    I'm not. And even if I were, it wouldn't matter.
[12:12] Tsubasa
    Don't say that.
[12:14] Tsubasa
    I respect you.
[12:18] Tsubasa
    Cat's Eye Gardener's countdown drops by 1.
[12:21] Andrea
    You respect me?
[12:24] Tsubasa
    Yes.
[12:25] Tsubasa
    I told you I want to be a pro, right?
[12:27] Tsubasa
    Do you remember?
[12:29] Andrea
    I suppose.
[12:30] Tsubasa
    The Seven Shadows are, like,
    the strongest pros, right?
[12:37] Tsubasa
    So of course I respect you!
[12:41] Andrea
    I'm not like that.
[12:43] Tsubasa
    But you are part of the Seven Shadows.
[12:46] Tsubasa
    That's amazing, ma'am.
[12:48] Andrea
    It isn't.
[12:50] Andrea
    If Wolfram hadn't told me
    to join, I wouldn't have.
[12:55] Andrea
    And even after joining,
    I haven't really done much.
[12:59] Andrea
    Spell Card: Resentment Revealed.
[13:01] Andrea
    It sets the cost of a follower in my
    hand with an attack of 3 to zero.
[13:06] Andrea
    That follower is banished
    at the end of turn.
[13:10] Andrea
    I play Lord of Resurrection for 0 cost.
[13:21] Tsubasa
    She got that card out already?
[13:29] Andrea
    With Necromancy 4, it does Reanimate 3 and
    gives Storm to the resurrected follower.
[13:35] Andrea
    Soul Sniper, evolve.
[13:44] Andrea
    Its on-evolve effect triggers
    and I regain 1 PP.
[13:50] Andrea
    It attacks your leader,
[13:53] Andrea
    and its on-attack effect triggers as well.
[14:01] Andrea
    Soul Legion attacks your leader, too.
[14:09] Tsubasa
    I'm down to 8 defense already?
[14:10] Andrea
    And then, I play the
    spell card Soul Conversion,
[14:16] Andrea
    destroying a follower of mine
    and drawing me two cards.
[14:22] Tsubasa
    You really are good.
[14:26] Tsubasa
    Resentment Revealed was supposed
    to banish Lord of Resurrection,
[14:30] Tsubasa
    but you brought it back.
[14:32] Andrea
    It's not that special.
[14:35] Tsubasa
    You're really cool.
[14:36] Andrea
    You mean cold and unemotional?
[14:38] Tsubasa
    No.
[14:40] Tsubasa
    A grandmaster. One of the Seven Shadows.
[14:44] Tsubasa
    You look pretty darn cool to me!
[14:48] Tsubasa
    Cat's Eye Gardener's
    countdown reaches zero.
[14:51] Tsubasa
    It is destroyed and its Last Words trigger,
    summoning a Cat's Eye Gardener.
[15:01] Tsubasa
    Cat's Eye Gardener's effect triggers.
[15:04] Tsubasa
    When it enters play, it adds
    Hallowed Dogma to my hand,
[15:08] Tsubasa
    and reduces its cost to 1.
[15:10] Tsubasa
    So you'll use that Hallowed Dogma to
    advance the countdown of that amulet?
[15:15] Tsubasa
    Nope.
[15:16] Tsubasa
    First, I attack your Soul Legion
    with Princess Snow White.
[15:21] Tsubasa
    Its Last Words bring another Princess
    Snow White into play and evolve it.
[15:33] Tsubasa
    Next, I play Gemstone Carapace.
[15:38] Tsubasa
    Each time one of my followers evolves,
    it advances this amulet's countdown by 1.
[15:43] Tsubasa
    Its Last Words create a Bejeweled Tortoise.
[15:47] Tsubasa
    And it doesn't end there!
     Princess Snow White attacks Soul Legion!
[15:54] Andrea
    I counterattack.
[16:00] Tsubasa
    I play the amulet card Bejeweled Shrine.
[16:06] Tsubasa
    And then, Cat's Eye Gardener's
    effect triggers.
[16:09] Tsubasa
    When I bring an amulet card into play,
    it restores my leader's defense by 3!
[16:15] Tsubasa
    And now, this follower!
[16:17] Tsubasa
    A noble light brings judgment!
[16:20] Tsubasa
    Come forth!
[16:23] Tsubasa
    Tanzanite Convictor!
[16:33] Tsubasa
    Then I play Wingy, Chirpy Gemstone!
[16:38] Tsubasa
    I evolve Wingy!
[16:48] Tsubasa
    I attack Soul Sniper!
[16:56] Tsubasa
    Wingy's Last Words give Ward to a random
    follower of mine with a base attack of 2 or less.
[17:03] Tsubasa
    Thank you, Wingy.
[17:07] Tsubasa
    Tanzanite Convictor has Storm.
[17:10] Tsubasa
    It attacks your leader!
[17:16] Tsubasa
    I end my turn, and first,
    Tanzanite Convictor's effect activates,
[17:21] Tsubasa
    restoring both of our leader's defense by 1.
[17:24] Tsubasa
    And then...
[17:24] Andrea
    Bejeweled Shrine's effect.
[17:27] Tsubasa
    Yup!
[17:28] Tsubasa
    Bejeweled Shrine's effect activates,
    increasing the attack and defense by 3
[17:32] Tsubasa
    of any followers I have
    with both Storm and Ward.
[17:35] Tsubasa
    And then, Tanzanite
    Convictor's second effect.
[17:39] Tsubasa
    When its attack and defense increase,
[17:42] Tsubasa
    Tanzanite Convictor can't be attacked
    until the start of my next turn.
[17:48] Tsubasa
    I turned it around, ma'am.
[17:50] Andrea
    Your light is so dazzling. But...
[17:53] Tsubasa
    "But the world's filled with despair," right?
[17:56] Tsubasa
    I still don't know why you say those things.
[18:02] Andrea
    I was once...
[18:05] Andrea
    I was once like you.
[18:09] Tsubasa
    But you changed?
[18:12] Andrea
    That's right.
[18:14] Andrea
    Yeah, I'm sure that's right.
[18:34] (Flashback) Mom
    Oh, you're awake?
[18:37] (Flashback) Mom
    Come over here.
[18:39] (Flashback) Andrea
    Okay!
[18:42] (Flashback) Andrea
    How's work?
[18:44] (Flashback) Mom
    Hm... It's tough, but I think it'll work out.
[18:48] (Flashback) Mom
    If this technology works,
    humanity will be saved.
[18:53] (Flashback) Mom
    But it's a little too hard for you
    to understand, huh, Ann?
[18:55] (Flashback) Andrea
    That's not true!
[18:57] (Flashback) Andrea
    I'll be just like you when I grow up!
[19:00] (Flashback) Andrea
    I'll save humanity!
[19:02] (Flashback) Mom
    Yeah? I can't wait.
[19:06] (Flashback) Andrea
    My mother tried to use
    the light of her life for good.
[19:12] (Flashback) Andrea
    Nothing she did was wrong.
[19:15] (Flashback) Andrea
    She was righteous.
[19:17] (Flashback) Andrea
    She was beautiful.
[19:18] (Flashback) Andrea
    But...
[19:21] (Flashback) Mom
    Director, explain yourself!
[19:23] (Flashback) Mom
    Why?
[19:24] (Flashback) Mom
    That theory was mine! Why?
[19:30] (Flashback) Mom
    Huh? F-Fired?
[19:32] (Flashback) Mom
    Wait, you can't just...
[19:35] (Flashback) Mom
    No...
[19:44] (Flashback) Andrea
    Mom! Mom!
[19:48] (Flashback) Mom
    Oh.
[19:49] (Flashback) Mom
    You're awake.
[19:52] (Flashback) Mom
    I'm sorry, Ann.
[19:55] (Flashback) Mom
    I'm sorry.
[19:57] (Flashback) Mom
    Mommy's... tired.
[20:01] Andrea
    My light was tainted with despair.
[20:05] Andrea
    It disappeared in front of my eyes.
[20:10] Andrea
    But I still...
[20:12] Andrea
    I still believed in the light.
[20:16] Andrea
    I tried to bring back her light
    by studying her research.
[20:26] Andrea
    But...
[20:28] Andrea
    But other people stole all of her research.
[20:36] Andrea
    I couldn't even figure out
    what she had been researching.
[20:44] Andrea
    Yes...
[20:45] Andrea
    Takanashi. Like you said, I changed.
[20:51] Andrea
    But it's not my fault. It's the world's.
[20:56] Andrea
    It stole something beautiful from me.
     Something I could believe in.
[21:02] Tsubasa
    Shadowverse brought you all the way here.
[21:05] Tsubasa
    And to Shadowverse College, too.
[21:08] Tsubasa
    It wasn't all despair, right?
[21:12] Andrea
    That's true.
[21:14] Andrea
    But this isn't what I wanted.
[21:19] Andrea
    I played Shadowverse for fun,
    and I was better at it than others. That's all.
[21:24] Andrea
    None of it matters. Not Shadowverse.
    Not being a teacher. Not the Seven Shadows.
[21:31] Andrea
    Takanashi...
[21:33] Andrea
    I dislike you.
[21:35] Andrea
    But don't worry.
[21:47] Andrea
    I'll save you, too.
