She says that joining Fifth Sword hasn't helped her do what she wants to do.
So I asked her to join Seventh Flame. That's all.
Hey...
You're the transfer student, right?
I'm Light Tenryu.
It looks like I need to teach you a lesson in how we do things around here!
I can't let you get away with this!
So, what's the plan?
Mmm! Dinnertime!
We'll have to battle him, of course.
Well, we did kind of pick a fight with him.
I'll be waiting for you at the school stadium tomorrow after school!
We'll have to do it.
Just so we're clear, I ain't fighting him.
You are fools, Seventh Flame!
How've you been?
You're all such lazy layabouts!
If you're here to insult us, just leave, digital club member.
How dare you talk to me like that?!
I came to warn you!
Warn us?
You're battling Tatsumi Raido, right?
He's a master of the Swordcraft class.
And a powerful foe!
He attacks with large numbers of followers.
Watch out for that, I guess.
Thanks for the advice, Gentleman!
It's not advice! It's a warning!
Weirdo.
Just watch us, Gentleman!
We'll fight fair and square.
"We"? You're the one battling Raido.
It's time.
Let's go.
Yeah.
Fine.
Dora-dora-dora-dora!
What can I do?
Episode 7
That's My Strength!
That's my strength!
So you came.
I'll give you credit for not running away scared,
you Seventh Flame villains!
He's trying to make himself sound like a superhero.
We're not villains.
Light.
Would you let me fight this battle?
Oh, the club president's gonna play?
Yeah.
I'm the one who caused this.
Of course.
I want to see you battle, too.
Thanks.
So you're my opponent, Mitsutagawa.
Yes. Let's have a good game, Raido.
I won't lose to a new club president!
I'll give this my all!
Battle! Shadowverse!
Here I go!
Draw!
I play Daisy Bear!
Its first effect adds the spell card Flower Breeze to my hand!
So that's your follower?
Yes. He's very cute.
You're a fool, Mitsutagawa.
Cuteness doesn't win battles!
I play Quickblader!
A follower with Storm? It can attack the turn it comes into play!
Attacking is what Swordcraft does best!
I attack your leader with Quickblader!
And then I end my turn.
Now, it's your turn.
All right. My turn! Draw!
I attack your leader with Daisy Bear!
And then I play Flower Breeze!
It returns one amulet or follower card I have in play to my hand!
And then it recovers 1 defense for my leader!
And then I play the Daisy Bear in my hand once more!
So you added another Flower Breeze to your hand?
Yes. Now I end my turn.
Hm. A defensive deck, like Hahajima of Fourth Wind.
Very well! I'll shatter your defenses!
Draw!
First, I attack Daisy Bear with Quickblader!
And then I play Fervid Soldier!
Hey, that's a cute follower.
Nope.
Her attack goes up each time a commander card enters play on her side.
If she's not taken out quickly, he'll be in trouble.
The Swordcraft class relies on a combination of soldiers and commanders.
Can you defeat their combined might, Mitsutagawa?
I'll prove that I can!
Draw!
I play Elf Child May!
May's effect activates...
and does 1 damage to a randomly chosen enemy follower!
Not good enough!
Then I use Flower Breeze to bring her back to my hand!
And play her again!
What?
Now I end my turn.
Hey, Seventh Flame is about to be shut down, right?
They're weak, right?
Supposedly they fought Sixth Magic's club president.
But they can't beat our president.
A-Are you sure?
I mean... you're right!
Tatsumi can't possibly lose...
Not bad.
But my army marches on!
Novice Trooper!
Novice Trooper has Storm! I attack your leader!
I end my turn.
My turn! Draw!
First, I attack your leader with May!
I play Ancient Elf!
A legendary follower with Ward?
Yes. As long as I have a follower with Ward in play,
you can't attack followers I own without Ward, or my leader!
And that's not at all!
Ancient Elf's effect activates!
All followers on my side are returned to my hand,
and for each one, her attack and defense increase by 1!
And then I play May!
He's good. He's blunting his enemy's attacks.
Yeah.
But his turn is over, and there's still a follower on the enemy's side.
And next turn...
I can see how you became a club president.
You're not totally useless.
But not strong enough, either!
My turn! Draw!
I play Advancing Lord!
A commander follower?
As long as Advancing Lord is in play, my followers get Storm!
And it's the second player's turn on turn 4!
Now evolve!
Begin the march!
Advancing Lord's on-evolve effect activates and creates two Knights!
Three followers at once?
I attack with all my followers!
Shadowverse is about valor and strength!
Your weak followers are no match for Tatsumi Raido!
Will you still fight on, Mitsutagawa?
You were just dealt a bad hand, weren't you?
Haruma Hazeura came after you.
Every member of your team lost.
You were left behind and had no choice but to become club president.
I'm sympathetic to your plight, but...
you don't have the right!
Thus, your followers are weak!
That is the truth!
No...!
Maybe I don't have the right to be president.
But Light and Subaru are here for me.
I may not have the right, but I won't cry anymore!
And... And...
My followers are strong, Raido!
Tatsumi Raido
Class: Swordcraft Birthday: 2/17 Likes: Physical Training
Blossom Wolf Slade
Bloom with pride! Rose Deer!
His effect adds the spell card Rose Strike to my hand!
Rose Deer has Rush! He attacks Advancing Lord!
And then his effect activates.
When he destroys an enemy follower, I recover 2 play points
and receive two random 1-cost followers in my hand!
I play the newly-added Daisy Bear!
Its effect adds a Flower Breeze to my hand!
I evolve Daisy Bear!
And attack Novice Trooper!
And then I play Flower Breeze,
bringing Daisy Bear back to my hand and restoring 1 defense!
Nice, Itsuki.
Yeah. He's good.
I end my turn.
Fool! Weak!
My Shadowverse is strong as iron!
It'll take more than that to shake me!
Let the light of glory shine on the battlefield!
Advance!
Maximum General!
A legendary follower?
A hundred push-ups.
A thousand sit-ups.
Ten thousand squats!
Daily training strengthens the body!
And the most brilliant mind lies within a trained body!
Your thin, flabby arms cannot endure my attack!
When this follower enters play,
randomly-selected Swordcraft followers with costs of 3, 2, and 1 are put into play
and given Ward!
And then, I evolve Maximum General!
Its on-evolve effect activates.
It raises the attack and defense of all other Swordcraft followers by 1!
And then I attack Rose Deer with my evolved Maximum General!
My Knights and followers with Storm attack your leader!
These are my followers!
This is the power of a Shadowverse Club President!
You're strong, aren't you?
No, you're weak!
You're right. I don't have the kind of strength you have.
I've always been this way.
I love flowers. I love cute things.
But I'm not good at running and stuff.
So I felt lonely.
Like I had to change.
But...
I was wrong!
Shadowverse accepted me!
The cute cards gave me strength!
Shadowverse taught me
that I can be who I am!
Great!
My followers are cute.
I don't have a lot of strength.
But...
There's more than one type of power!
Being who I am, and going forward...
That's my strength!
Being who you are, and going forward...
Very well!
Then show me your strength!
Of course!
My turn! Draw!
I need your power...
Blossom Wolf Slade!
Your DigiFriend?
Yes.
Slade's first effect activates!
A follower in my hand with cost of 5 or more has its cost lowered by 2,
and is given a new effect!
I evolve Blossom Wolf Slade!
Its on-evolve effect activates!
If more than three return-to-hand effects have activated during my turn,
it lowers the attack and defense of all enemy followers to 1!
And then I play her!
Pure white fangs, dance!
It's up to you now, Cosmos Fang!
That's...
The effect Slade gave her.
Cosmos Fang has Ambush until the end of your next turn.
Fancy clothes! Hiding in the shadows! You are weak!
And you have no play points and no evolution points!
How will you struggle now, Itsuki Mitsutagawa?!
I end my turn!
Seriously?
N-No...
And at the end of my turn, Cosmos Fang's effect activates!
Another randomly selected follower is moved to my hand.
And I gain defense equal to the cost of that card.
Ridiculous!
That's all you can do?
I knew it! Your followers are weak!
You are weak!
There's no point in battling further!
Now lose like a man, Mitsutagawa!
My turn!
Followers with Ambush can't be targeted by effects or attacks.
But I don't care about the follower!
I evolve Fervid Soldier and increase her attack and defense by 2.
And I attack your leader with all followers!
I put all my strength and spirit into this strike!
Itsuki!
Forfeit and accept your loss.
That's the manly thing to do.
Why do you stand?
To win!
Impossible!
You have only 4 defense!
One follower!
Your cute followers... Your weakness...
You can't beat my strength!
This is who I am!
I'll never give up on being who I am!
I'll be who I am and go forward!
Now let's end this!
This is my last turn!
First, I play Daisy Bear!
Its first effect activates!
I play Rose Strike!
It does 3 damage to the enemy leader!
Meaningless!
Next, Flower Breeze!
I return Daisy Bear to my hand and gain 1 defense!
Then I play Daisy Bear and Slade!
One more Flower Breeze changes nothing!
That's not all!
Daisy Bear's second effect activates!
If I've played three or more Flower Breezes during the battle,
it sets my evolution points to 1!
I told you, Raido.
This is my last turn.
Evolve!
Beautiful, deadly-sharp fangs!
Cosmos Fang!
It changed form?
Cosmos Fang's on-evolve ability activates
and returns all followers with 3 defense or less to their owner's hand!
My followers!
I attack your leader with Cosmos Fang!
And her on-attack effect triggers!
For every card that was returned to a hand this turn,
her attack increases by 1!
Eight cards were returned to hand this turn!
Thus, she gains 8 attack!
Mitsutagawa, were you aiming for this since your last turn?
It was part of his plan!
What do you mean?
Tatsumi played five followers the previous turn, right?
Shadowverse lets you have at most five followers in play at once, so...
He couldn't play any more.
Yup!
Then he used Slade to set all of Tatsumi's followers' attack to 1,
so he could stay alive for a turn and win the game!
Wow! He's amazing!
That's... That's what it means to be who you are!
You... You locked down my board so you could win with Cosmos Fang, didn't you?
Yes.
I don't have strength like you have.
But this is my... my own kind of strength!
Now go! Bloom with pride, Cosmos Fang!
Wow!
Amazing!
That was so cool!
Congratulations!
I won...
Itsuki! That was incredible!
You scared me for a minute, though!
That battle was great!
Thanks.
I never thought I'd be the one to lose.
Mitsutagawa.
I'm sorry!
I called you weak. And I apologize.
You and your followers are strong!
Your followers were really strong, too, Raido!
Thank you!
Call me Tatsumi.
Thank you for a battle that opened my eyes!
I understand who you are.
From now on, I swear I will battle as the person I am, Itsuki.
Hey, don't just stand there, Ren!
I can tell exactly what you're thinking.
You want to join Seventh Flame, right?
Go! Go!
Even if we're in different clubs, we'll still be friends, right?
Airi... Misaki...
Courage will always give you strength!
Nice work!
Um!
If I go with you, can I be who I really am, too?
Of course!
Splendid work, Seventh Flame!
I am praying for your success!
And take good care of my club member.
Huh?
Fifth Sword, withdraw!
Yes, sir!
I'm Ren Kazamatsuri, class 1-C.
My favorite thing is Battle Fencer.
My favorite phrase is, "Courage will always give you strength!"
Please let me join Seventh Flame!
Relax a little, okay?
Nice to meet you!
I'm a beginner at Shadowverse. Please teach me.
Thank you, Kazamatsuri.
Seventh Flame is happy to have you!
Thank you!
I'll go forward with courage, so I can be who I really am!
