No luck.
I keep calling him, but he won't pick up.
What happened to Light?
Maybe he got lost on campus?
It feels pointless just to stay here waiting for him.
Yup!
You're right, Tsubasa! I'm worried about him!
Let's go look!
That's not what I said...
Sorry I'm late.
What happened, Light? You didn't contact us.
Light?
I'm really sorry.
While I was by myself, I battled Haruma Hazeura.
I lost.
Completely.
Did that idiot say anything to you?
Hurt you?
Quit Shadowverse.
No, nothing. I lost. That's all.
I see. That's good.
Haruma is really good, huh?
Yeah. He was strong.
So I want to be strong, too.
That's right. You need to get a lot stronger!
Looks like you lost to Haruma, just as I predicted.
Who's that?
I don't know.
You were watching, Mikado?
Every battle that happens in this school,
I know all about.
I'm the chairman, after all.
The chairman?
And you watch as well, Gentleman.
I don't like you.
And you're a very bad child,
hacking into the school's systems.
What do you want?
I'll get to the point.
Seventh Flame, you have to get stronger.
And as chairman, I want to help!
So...
I'll make an announcement!
In one month, my school will be holding a Shadowverse club tournament!
Episode 15
Battle in a Way That's True to Yourself!
A Shadowverse club tournament?
Yup.
It's perfect for you guys, isn't it?
We didn't ask for your help.
Well, I just decided on my own.
But if you were able to beat Haruma Hazeura,
do you think it would matter to him if it were just a normal battle?
Well...
Absolutely not, right?
He's got his pride.
If you want to change his mind and make a difference,
you need to do it in the right place.
And that's where the Shadowverse club tournament comes in.
Beat him in front of the whole school,
and not only he, but also the rest of the students,
will realize just how strong Seventh Flame is.
I've already told the other club presidents.
Shadowverse Club Tournament
Announcement
Whether you want strength or not.
Shadowverse Club Tournament
Announcement
Whether you're interested in the title of "strongest" or not.
You're all going to be entered.
If you run away, well, you're not much of a Shadowverse club, are you?
I've prepared the perfect stage for you.
So don't let me down.
But now that I've done all this for you, you should pay a price, don't you think?
So if you aren't able to win the tournament,
maybe I'll expel you all!
Good luck!
Wait, Mikado!
Expelled?
No way would he go that far.
He's bluffing.
Yeah? There's no way...
No, he'd do it.
He's Mikado Shirogane.
The heir to the Shirogane family, which runs Shadowverse College,
and the school's chairman.
Seriously?
Yeah. What Subaru said is correct.
Mikado Shirogane has full authority over Shadowverse College.
So he can expel us?
It'd be easy.
No!
Yeah, but isn't that going too far?
Our job doesn't change either way. Right?
We have a month until the tournament.
We'll spend this month getting stronger,
defeat Haruma Hazeura and win the tournament!
This isn't my style, but...
I'll help!
And as president of Seventh Flame, I want all your help, too!
Of course.
I-I'm scared of being expelled, but...
It'll work out for us, right?
Fine.
It's settled, then.
We'll get stronger!
We'll win and beat Haruma Hazeura!
We'll change Shadowverse College, together!
So, how do you get stronger at Shadowverse?
I made it.
This'll be fun.
So this is Shadowverse Stadium?
Yeah. It's packed, huh?
If you want to get stronger, the best way is to battle a bunch of people.
This is the perfect place for it.
I wish the others could've come.
Training at the stadium?
I'm out.
I'll train by myself.
She's not much of a team player.
Um...
I-I'll go talk to her.
Bye!
Wait!
I'll be going, too.
There's no reason for me to be with you.
Sheesh. I don't know if "selfish" is the right word, but...
I don't know if I'm one to talk, though.
Well, it can't be helped.
We're still a new club.
From now on...
Light?
Again?
What did I just say?
I'll go get some practice in.
Yeah.
Now, where's Light?
I guess it doesn't matter.
Who should I battle?
That girl...
May I have a word?
What? I'm in a bad mood.
I want to battle you.
Who are you?
Light Tenryu.
A second-year student at Shadowverse College.
And you?
I told you. I'm in a bad mood.
I'm waiting for someone.
That's a shame, Alice.
I hoped we could battle.
You're Alice Kurobane, the famous idol who's on TV and in commercials, right?
Am I wrong?
And you're also a Shadowcraft player.
I've heard you're very strong.
I was hoping we could play.
I'm sorry to bother you.
You interest me, Big Brother.
Something about that set me off.
Maybe I will battle you.
Really?
But...
I won't hold back,
so be ready!
Yes. That's just what I want!
Alice Kurobane
Class: Shadowcraft Birthday: 2/2 Likes: Someone Precious
Rabbit Necromancer
My turn! Draw!
I play Lyrial, Celestial Archer, and Zombie Buccaneer!
Zombie Buccaneer's effect activates!
Necromancy 2 gives him Last Words!
First, Skull Beast attacks Dragnir!
It's fine.
Let's hit back, Dragnir!
Go!
Skull Beast's Last Words increase the size of my graveyard.
And I'm not done yet!
I evolve Lyrial!
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe...
Just kidding!
I need to take this seriously, or it's no fun, right?
Lyrial's evolve effect triggers!
She does 1 damage to an enemy follower!
And then Lyrial attacks Armed Kit!
Well, Big Brother?
She's good!
She turned the game around quickly!
Crap! Am I attracting a crowd?
Well, I guess that's what happens when you're an idol.
Especially one who saved the world!
Shadowcraft is strong.
Especially their Last Words!
You're a little stiff.
Well, whatever.
I end my turn, Big Brother!
My turn, then! Draw!
Drago Weapon! Dragon Warrior!
Drago Weapon's effect arms Dragon Warrior and increases its defense by 1!
First, I attack Lyrial with Hammer Dragonewt!
Get 'em, Lyrial!
Hammer Dragonewt's Last Words...
add a Dragon Smash to my hand!
I evolve Armed Dragon Warrior!
Its evolve effect activates and does 3 damage to an enemy follower!
And then it does 1 damage to all enemy followers!
Zombie Buccaneer's Last Words put a Zombie into play!
Then I attack your Zombie with Armed Dragon Warrior!
Okay, I end my turn!
Okay! Okay!
It's my turn, then!
Draw!
Hop, hop! Come out, Rabbit Necromancer!
And then I play Soul Conversion!
That's... a spell card that destroys your own follower to draw cards!
You know it, huh?
So... bye-bye!
But her Last Words activate, and she does 2 damage to your leader!
And then I draw two cards!
Spell Card: Undying Resentment!
It does 3 damage to an enemy follower,
or 5 damage with Necromancy 2!
Necromancy is terrifying.
What's wrong?
Is your turn over?
Sure, but...
You're so stiff.
Almost like Big Brother Kai.
"Stiff"? I'm just playing seriously.
Maybe not stiff... More like scared.
Well, it's okay, though.
I end my turn.
My turn! Draw!
I play Lance Lizard!
There's nothing else I can do.
Too bad!
That happens with Shadowverse.
Sometimes it doesn't work. Sometimes you screw up.
But...
Overcoming that is what makes it fun!
I play Lesser Mummy and Zombeagle!
Lesser Mummy's effect activates!
Necromancy 4 gives it Storm!
And then I play Feathered Patroller with Ward!
That card...
It does 2 damage to an enemy follower with Necromancy 4, right?
If she attacked Lance Lizard with Lesser Mummy to build up her graveyard,
and then used Feathered Patroller's effect,
she could destroy Lance Lizard, right?
I attack your leader with Lesser Mummy!
You're not going after my Lance Lizard!
Okay, Big Brother...
It's a little early, but it's time for the chorus!
Be ready!
Then I'll fight with my full power, too!
My turn!
Draw!
Laevateinn Dragon
You came!
That's your...
Yeah. My best card.
The dragon's blade guides me to heaven!
Howl! Laevateinn Dragon!
I see! Wow!
But...
Laevateinn Dragon has Rush.
I attack Feathered Patroller!
Laevateinn Dragon's on-attack effect activates!
I regain 2 Play Points and create a Drago Weapon!
If there's a Drago Weapon in play, Lance Lizard gets 2 defense upon attack,
along with the ability to do 2 damage to an enemy leader!
And then I play Roc!
I arm it to raise its defense by 1!
Armed Roc has Rush!
It also does 2 damage to the enemy leader on attack!
Lance Lizard and Armed Roc's effects damage your leader!
This is my full power!
I see.
Not bad, but...
It may not be enough.
What?
Something has felt "off" this whole game.
What am I lacking?
You want me to tell you?
You're lacking three things, Big Brother!
But before I tell you,
I need to make this battle a lot more exciting!
Here I go, Big Brother!
This is how you use your best card!
Appear from the depths of the abyss! Your name is...
Skeleton Raider!
Skeleton Raider's effect activates!
With Necromancy 6, it destroys one enemy follower!
And next is Skeleton Raider's second effect...
Each time an enemy follower is destroyed,
it does 1 damage to the enemy leader and all followers!
Armed Roc was destroyed, so that's 1 more damage!
And then 1 more damage!
So that's it...
She didn't use Necromancy during her last turn because she was saving it.
Right!
Now, evolve!
Skeleton Raider has Storm!
That was fun, huh, Big Brother?
I totally lost.
Okay, I'll give you some advice.
You ready?
Yeah. Tell me—
First.
When you battle a Shadowcraft player, you need to watch their graveyard.
On your last turn, you took out my followers for no real advantage
and filled up my graveyard.
Some followers can increase graveyard size, so watch for that, too.
What will you do with that?
Come on. You've still got Play Points, right?
What do I do?
Do I use Dragon Smash?
No, Skull Predator isn't a powerful follower.
I shouldn't use it. Which means...
I understand now. Back then, I was...
Tip number two!
Make better use of your best cards!
Your Laevateinn Dragon has an even more powerful effect.
"A more powerful effect"?
Yeah. Understand that, and it will save you.
I see...
Laevateinn Dragon... I still don't even know what my most powerful cards can do.
If I stay like this...
Lastly, and most importantly, number three...
If you keep frowning all the time, Shadowverse will be boring!
It's good to be serious,
but battle in a way that's true to yourself!
You need to enjoy Shadowverse!
Y-You're right.
I may have been a little too tense.
Thank you.
I can get stronger now thanks to you.
Yeah? Good.
I'm in a better mood, too.
Now, let's try again.
Big Sis Mimori
You were waiting for someone, weren't you?
Sorry, Big Brother.
I think I have somewhere I have to be.
Yeah.
Thank you for your help.
See you around, Big Brother.
I've got a feeling we'll meet again.
Oh, Big Sis?
Yeah. Yeah. I want to see you, too.
Thank you, Alice.
"Battle in a way that's true to yourself"...
Okay, I'll do my best!
Shadowverse Card Showcase!
Today's Card is
Dragoncraft
Dragon Smash
Today's card is Dragon Smash!
It does damage to an enemy follower while creating a Drago Weapon.
It's an important part of Light's Deck!
Use these cards better and get stronger!
Yeah, let's get to work!
Do you have a moment, ma'am?
