This is sudden, but here's our story so far!
The Castle card shop's preliminary rounds reached their climax.
If Yuga won his match against Banjoe Onizuka, he would be guaranteed to become the Shop Representative.
However, Banjoe had just lost to Masato, and was feeling burned out.
Yuga did everything that he could to cheer up Banjoe, so that they could have a great match together.
Yuga proved victorious and went on to the secondary round!
Yuga. Garga. Do you have any plans after classes today?
Plans? Nothing in particular.
Likewise.
Then I'd love it if you could come with me.
Come with you and do what?
Puzzling, puzzling.
What could you be talking about?
Masato helps out many athletics clubs as a special coach.
And this week...
It's this one!
I see. The Kendo Club!
That's right!
Garga, you're a master swordsman yourself.
How about it? Will you come by and give these guys a few pointers?
That sounds like a lot of fun.
I am happy to accept.
Masato or Kanesada? Shop Preliminary Finals!
I'm so grateful that the Deity of Combat himself has come to lend us guidance!
Indeed.
Everyone's practicing hard, even though it's lunch break!
Yeah! That's some nice dedication.
So you're going to start coaching after classes?
We have to help out at the cafe, so we won't be able to watch.
In that case, why don't you ask them to upload videos to RanGa Channel?
That's a great idea!
What's this?
Who's that girl?
She's a fourth-grader, Sayaka Tatewaki.
What about that girl?
As the Deity of Combat, I can tell...
She has what it takes.
Ah, I failed! Once again, I have tripped and fallen, forsooth.
It makes no sense.
That girl named Sayaka.
She certainly should have the aptitude for swordsmanship, but...
I just thought of something great!
If we're talking about swordsmen, we know at least one other!
Why, this is...
What is it, my lord?
A missive from Yuga, forsooth.
You guys came too?
That's even more reassuring!
If I'm being asked to lend guidance to young samurai warriors, there's no way I'd refuse, forsooth.
It must be destiny for us to meet like this before our Buddyfight match.
Huh?
The truth is, we are scheduled to face each other in a Buddyfight on our next day off, forsooth.
Whoever wins becomes Shop Representative! And goes on to the Secondary round!
Is that so.
Indeed.
I'm looking forward to it!
Me too.
And I as well.
Starting today, I'll be your special coach for a week!
I'm Masato Rikuo.
As you all know, kendo begins with a bow and ends with a bow.
Let's get more good footage today, dog!
I'm going to do my best to get some great shots, cat!
This feels so nice, bird.
So cool against my skin...
It's guiding me to dreamland, bird...
This girl is Sayaka, the one we mentioned earlier.
Garga said that she has some kind of talent with swords, but...
She sure doesn't look like it.
Now, before we start coaching, I'd like to work with Kanesada to demonstrate a kendo match for you.
Please, give me a moment.
Before we begin... there's something that I'd like to present to you all, forsooth.
Katana World flag cards, autographed by my lord!
As well as these special collectible mini-posters! Four designs in all!
Those who would join me in building a bright future for Katana World!
Please accept these, forsooth!
-Yeah! A Katana World flag! -Please give me one too!
They're very popular, forsooth.
Huh?
Thank you for this demonstration!
Begin!
You're good!
You too!
Halt!
What?
What should we do?
Should we strike back?
Our opponent is a young maiden.
We cannot return her blows with our full force.
You've got a point.
As I thought, my judgment was correct. This child...
If she dedicates herself and practices her skills...
Forsooth!
She is certain to become a master swordsman!
Masato! Kanesada!
Yuga!
Don't do it, Sayaka!
E-Elder brother?
Sayaka!
One! Two! One! Two!
I'm Sayaka's older brother, Kazuma.
I'm sorry that my little sister has caused you all this trouble.
I humbly beg your forgiveness, forsooth!
No need to apologize.
What I want to know is...
What in the world just happened, forsooth?
I'm really curious too!
When my little sister is bathed in someone else's powerful fighting spirit,
she loses her composure and goes berserk, as you just saw.
What does berserk mean?
It means you lose control of yourself, and act in unusual ways.
In that case, she wouldn't be able to battle properly if she were ever to compete in a match.
It is as you say... I always lose the match due to disqualification, forsooth.
It vexes me to my very soul, forsooth!
I don't have any particular ambitions, but Sayaka is different.
She loves kendo with all her heart. I wish there was some way to help her...
For share! Leave it to me!
I'll make sure that you can compete in matches properly!
He really does like to take care of others.
That's what's so great about Masato!
Let me assist as well.
Lending guidance to young swordsmen is also part of a samurai's duties, forsooth.
Really?
I kinda got carried away earlier and said I'd help, but...
I can't think of any good plans of action, forsooth.
This girl must be Sayaka, right?
That's right, dog.
When she's sitting kitty like this, she looks so quiet and shy.
But once she's on a rampage, she's incredible, bird...
She's not incredible so much as scary!
Oh my, how terrifying.
Her eyes are especially frightening. Glaring, glaring.
Under ideal circumstances, we should teach her the emotional control necessary for combat
while she observes skilled warriors in serious combat.
But if you do that, it'll just be the same as what happened today.
Doesn't anybody have an idea of what we could do?
Does this serious combat thing have to be in kendo?
Like, how about Buddyfight?
That's a kind of serious combat too, right?
I see what you mean... that could be a good possibility.
Nice idea! For share! Let's have little Sayaka observe our Buddyfight match!
I have no objections, forsooth!
Saturday morning is finally here!
Here we are at the Rampart card shop,
where the final match of the Shop Preliminaries is about to begin!
Whoever wins goes on to the Ace Buddyfighter Play-offs Secondary round, chu!
As always, let's get some great footage today, dog!
All preparations are complete, cat!
I'm sleepy, bird.
Is this your first time watching a Buddyfight?
Yes. Of course, we've heard of it, but...
Yuga can teach you the rules.
You must observe the Buddyfight match while listening closely to what I say.
You understand?
Aye, milord!
What does aye milord mean?
Uh, first the players luminize their decks!
The linked spiral is the chain of bonds!
Luminize!
Spiral Linkdragon Order!
Infusing my soul into every strike!
The iron blade glitters when it is drawn!
Luminize! Steel Bladedancer!
You have a minimum of 50 cards in your deck.
You can include up to four of the same card.
Buddy...fight!
Raise the flag!
Ancient World!
Katana World!
Thunder Axe, Agito!
Steelframe Swordsman, KUROGANE.
Monsters, items, spells, and impacts. There are many different types of cards.
So the key to victory lies in when you unleash those cards, and how you use them.
You start out the match with 10 life.
You defend your life while attacking, and if you reduce your opponent to 0 life, you win!
These two are battling with the position of Shop Representative at stake!
The first move goes to Masato Rikuo!
Draw! Charge and draw!
Charge means you place a hand card in your gauge.
And Draw means drawing a card from your deck.
I Buddy call Thunder Axe, Agito to the center!
Agito! Attack the fighter!
All right!
My turn...
Is over!
Combat isn't simply a matter of attacking your opponent with all your strength.
You must breathe with the same rhythm as your opponent, and adjust your timing to match theirs.
That is the same in Buddyfight as well as kendo.
My turn. Draw. Charge and draw.
I Buddy call Steelframe Swordsman, KUROGANE to the right, forsooth.
Under my lord's command, KUROGANE has arrived!
I pay 1 life and equip Excelblade, Godslash KANESADA.
Behold its magnificent strength!
Its shine and its beauty!
Excelblade Godslash, KANESADA is my ultimate masterpiece!
Never before in all of history, across all of the realms...
My lord!
We're in the middle of a match.
Oh, that's right.
I call Silver Orchid Swordsman SUZU to the left!
Her effect lets me add Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed from my deck to my hand!
This is sudden, but let me explain!
Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed is a card that, when the opponent attacks, destroys the cards used to attack.
And it deals 3 damage to the opponent.
It is Kanesada's impact.
Right now, Kanesada has Excelblade, Godslash KANESADA and Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed.
This is part of his winning strategy.
KUROGANE's ability, activate!
KUROGANE! Attack Agito, forsooth!
My sword is my lord's sword!
Take this!
Sorry, Masato!
Agito!
Double Attack!
Follow him, Suzu!
Double Attack, forsooth! Suzu!
I go forth!
You are down to 3 life, sir.
All I need to do is use my impact, Godspeed, and I will win!
Nice fight tactics!
But you know, I'm not about to lose either!
Behold. Look at their faces.
One attacks and the other guards. One guards and the other attacks.
By repeating this, they gain a deeper understanding of each other.
Gaining a deeper understanding... of each other...
That's right.
Right now, what you lack is the ability to consider your opponent's feelings and needs.
Draw!
Charge and draw!
I cast! Linkdragon Order's Anthem!
Masato Rikuo uses a spell to increase his gauge by 2.
I call Mazuru to the center!
If you're looking for something lost, just leave it to me!
Mazuru's effect lets Masato equip an item!
I call Johaku to the left!
Johaku's ability, activate!
Destroy one of the opponent's size 1 monsters!
Sorry!
Nice, Linkdragon Order!
Hey!
Nice, Linkdragon Order!
Hey!
Yeah!
I add Mazuru and Johaku from the field, and from the drop zone I add Agito, Tategami, Kaina and Jisen to the soul...
And I call Spiral Thunder Axe, King Agito to the center!
Right now, I'm massively overflowing with power!
Joy, strength, and power!
The time has come to unite forces and become one with our skillful comrades!
Spiral Dragon Share!
Wh-What's happening now?
It's Masato's specialty move!
This is sudden, but let me explain once more!
The ability to use all of the Dragon Share abilities from the soul cards!
That is the power of Spiral Dragon Share!
In other words, right now King Agito can use the abilities of Investigator Mazuru,
Willed Johaku, Thunder Axe Agito, Assailant Tategami, Heavystriker Kaina, and Keen Ear Jisen.
All of their abilities are shared with him!
King Agito's ability, activate!
Send one of KUROGANE's soul cards straight to the drop zone!
Oh no! KUROGANE has lost a soul card!
King Agito used the ability of a card in his soul, Tategami!
I cast! Linkdragon Order's Links!
My lord is the one who will proceed to the Secondary round!
I will pray for his victory!
KUROGANE!
KUROGANE has fallen in battle!
Because he lost that soul card earlier, his Soulguard ability doesn't activate.
That's gotta hurt!
King Agito! Attack the fighter!
Roger that!
I've been waiting for this moment to arrive, forsooth.
I will strike you down!
Impact! Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed!
Kanesada Kaji unleashes his impact!
Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed explodes with power!
Why?
Why does my impact have no effect, forsooth?
Godspeed...
Has been defeated!
This is sudden, but let me explain some more!
Currently, King Agito has Wild Axe's effect, and Keen Ear Jisen's Dragon Share.
This means that he can't have his abilities nullified, and he can't be destroyed by another card's effect.
Simply put, he is invincible!
King Agito's Double Attack strikes its target!
I cast! Linkdragon Order's Renewal!
Masato Rikuo uses a spell to Stand King Agito, and prepares for a follow-up attack!
King Agito! Do a link attack with me!
All right!
Final Phase!
I cast!
Thunder Dragon Tornado!
Impact! Thunder Dragon Tornado!
Game End! The victor is Masato Rikuo!
For Share!
Order's anthem! All together!
The linked spiral is the chain of bonds!
We all want to hear Masato say for share!
So we join forces and fight in his name!
Oh, we are the Linkdragon Order!
Yeah!
And with that, the Ace Buddyfighter Play-offs Shop Preliminary Rounds are now complete!
The next match will commence the Secondary Rounds, chu!
Stay tuned!
You adjust your combat strategy according to your opponent and the situation you find yourself in...
I admire that, forsooth.
You're quite skilled yourself!
Early on, I was in a lot of hot water.
Please, for our sake as well as yours, reach the top in the Ace Buddyfighter Play-offs!
Yeah! We're gonna win for sure!
Your words have struck a chord deep in my heart, forsooth.
E-Elder brother?
What is it?
What's your problem?
I had no idea!
Buddyfight is such a fascinating game!
Buddyfight is the best ever!
Oh, it was so much fun!
Which pack should I buy?
Maybe I'll buy all of them!
Begin!
How's it going?
Right now, what you lack is the ability to consider your opponent's feelings and needs.
Eyes open!
Well done!
Excuse my rudeness.
Both combatants!
Bow!
You should be fine now.
It worked!
If Lord Garga says it is so, then we can all rest easy.
That's great!
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!
All that remains is to continue improving every day, and make the power you have when berserk, your own.
Then you will become a master swordsman for certain.
Aye, milord!
Thank you, all of you, forsooth.
I give you my thanks for what you've done for me and my elder brother.
Is something up with Kazuma?
My elder brother has found what he wishes to do with his life, just as I have, forsooth.
Excuse me!
I'd like to buy all of these, please!
Ran! Ran! Ga-woo!
Hey, fans! Once again, the two of us will introduce a special card!
The card we're introducing today is this one!
Pinnacle of Iai, Godspeed!
When your opponent attacks,
you can use this impact card as long as you have an Excelblade on your field in the Stand position.
It'll nullify your opponent's attack.
In addition, it will nullify all of the abilities of the cards that attacked you, and destroy them!
And it'll deal 3 damage to your opponent!
It's a card that defies your opponent's expectations... that's how Katana World rolls!
This means that even cards that have Soulguard or cards that have abilities that
prevent being destroyed by effects can be easily destroyed.
Destroy your opponent's ace card and upset their battle strategy.
What did you think of today's card?
I hope you'll all use this card to build the most powerful deck ever!
Now then...
We're off to work on our next video, so don't forget to... Check us out!
The Ace Buddyfighter Play-offs enter a new stage!
The first opponent I face is... that guy!
Next episode: The Secondary Round begins! A Challenge from Vile Ranma!
Let's do this, Garga.
Join us for a Buddyfight!
