The strongest Bloodcraft player, Luca Yonazuki!
And his buddy follower, Dark Emperor!
He showed us an amazing performance at the World Tournament!
Now let's take a look at his followers...

Luca Yonazuki.
He's a Bloodcraft player, too, right?
Oh, you're a fan of Luca, y'know?
Oh, um...
I'm Kazuki Shindo.
Who're you?
I'm Itsuki Mitsutagawa.
Nice to meet you!
That ad's really cool, y'know?
Luca Yonazuki
Yes.
The Seven Shadows are the seven strongest Shadowverse players in the world.
Kaguya Makabe, the Havencraft Player.
Wolfram Zerga, the Swordcraft Player.
Luca Yonazuki, the Bloodcraft Player.
The others are all shrouded in mystery,
but they're said to be so strong, it's scary.
"So strong, it's scary," huh?
Well, they're not that scary.
Luca might look scary, sure, and you never know what he's thinking.
Um, you know him?
Of course! We saved the world—
Smack!
You were told not to talk about that.
We swore we'd keep it a secret, right?
I'm Kai Ijuin.
I'm no genius, but nice to meet you.
Oh, I'm Itsuki Mitsutagawa.
Sorry he's such an idiot.
He's just the type who says weird things sometimes.
"Idiot"? What do you mean "idiot," y'know?
But it's true that we know the Seven Shadows.
I've never beaten them, though.
Me, neither.
Gotta practice more!
So, what were you doing?
Oh, I heard there's a Bloodcraft player near the river.
I see. So you're a Shadowverse player, too.
There's a shortcut to the river.
Turn at the next stationery shop, go past two traffic lights,
then go past the small workshop at the end of the lane, and turn at the first telephone pole.
I see.
Thank you!
No problem. We'll be going.
Bye, Itsuki!
Let's play Shadowverse sometime, y'know!
Uh, okay!
Now, you're going to spend the day studying with me just as you promised, Kazuki.
I don't remember that promise, y'know?
Let's play Shadowverse instead, y'know?
No.
Aw!
That's amazing. They know the Seven Shadows.
I guess there are amazing people around me, too!
Okay, time to go!
Episode 17
I Want Shadowverse to Excite Me!
Okay, here I go, Subaru!
My turn! Draw!
First, I play two 0-cost Fairies!
Oh, that's...
Yup, this is the power of Forestcraft!
I play a Maahes with Ward!
Maahes's effect activates!
If I've played at least two cards this turn,
it does 2 damage to all enemy followers and their leader!
And then I evolve a Fairy!
I attack Lesser Mummy!
I guess that turns it around.
I end my turn!
Nice work.
Thanks!
You really do look like you're having fun.
I wish I could smile like that.
Spell Card: Undying Resentment!
With Necromancy 2, it does 5 damage to an enemy follower!
And then...
That follower creates two Ghosts when you evolve it, right?
Right.
But I guess I'll save my EP for now.
I end my turn.
Got it! My turn, then!
Draw!
Okay, first I play Lunar Maiden!
And then Spell Card: Fairy Circle!
It adds two Fairies to my hand!
I play one 1-cost Fairy and one 0-cost Fairy!
And then I play Blessed Fairy Dancer!
Her effect activates
and gives all my followers an extra attack point until end of turn!
An aggressive combo, huh?
I'm not done!
Lunar Maiden's effect activates!
When an effect gives her additional attack power,
it gives the same amount to a randomly selected Fairy!
If I've played at least three cards this turn,
it adds it to all Fairies, not just one!
I attack Playful Necromancer with the Fairy that's been in play since last turn!
I'm starting to get worried.
You don't look like it!
It's a bad habit.
But that might be good!
When the time comes, you'll get fired up.
That's what Shadowverse is!
You're a real grown-up, huh?
I wasn't always like this.
I had confidence in myself. I wasn't this indifferent.
But...
Well done, Kaguya.
Thank you, sir.
Ignore your failure of a brother. Keep working hard.
Academy Representative Kaguya Makabe
I used to be better at everything.
Shadowverse International Creating Prosperity with Shadowverse
But my brother left me behind at some point.
I had no talent. And my brother had lots.
I worked, and worked, and worked, but I couldn't match him.
So...
So I gave up.
I made myself think I didn't want it. Didn't need it.
It was easier that way.
I keep wanting to change, but I'm so used to being a loser that it's hard.
I've changed a lot.
Some things haven't changed.
You were kind to me!
I'm sure that part of you hasn't changed.
So it's okay...
So it's... Never mind!
I don't know anything, and I worry about stuff all the time.
I don't have the right to say anything!
No, um... That kind of makes me happy.
Miss... Mimori. Thank you.
If there's really a part of me that hasn't changed,
maybe I can have hopes for myself.
Yes!
That's right. You never changed. You were always there for me.
Okay, time to get back into it!
No sense in being gloomy all the time!
At least we can make the afterlife fun!
It's time for a big party!
Masquerade Ghost!
That's your...
Yup.
My best card.
Masquerade Ghost's effect activates.
When it enters play, it creates a Ghost and increases the Ghost's attack by 1!
And then I play Mischief Zombie!
Mischief Zombie's effect...
gives Bane to one Ghost!
The Ghost attacks your Lunar Maiden!
And then Masquerade Ghost's second effect activates!
Every time a Ghost is banished,
it creates a Giant Ghost with Ward!
W-Wow!
I end my turn, Mimori!
Yeah!
My turn! Draw!
I play White Wolf of Eldwood!
A legendary follower?
White Wolf of Eldwood has Rush!
I attack your Giant Ghost!
But you'll lose your follower, too!
What?
White Wolf of Eldwood's Last Words!
It gives an effect to its leader!
I see. That's what you were really after.
I'm not done yet, though!
Blessed Fairy Dancer attacks Mischief Zombie!
And two Fairies attack Masquerade Ghost!
Okay, now!
Nope.
I've got a trick up my sleeve, too!
Masquerade Ghost's Last Words give my leader an effect!
It seems that we're finally fighting for real.
Yeah, that's right!
Kazuki Shindo and Kai Ijuin

White Wolf of Eldwood
My turn! Draw!
The effect Masquerade Ghost gave me activates!
At the start of this turn only,
I can play a Masquerade Ghost that doesn't have Last Words!
And its effect creates a Ghost and increases its attack by 1!
I attack your leader with the strengthened Ghost!
And then I play a Cursed Soldier!
With Necromancy 4, it does 4 damage to your leader!
I end my turn.
The Ghost's effect causes it to be banished,
and Masquerade Ghost's effect activates
and creates a Giant Ghost!
Your turn, Mimori!
My turn's over!
Okay, my turn next! Draw!
The effect I got from White Wolf of Eldwood activates!
At the start of this turn only,
I add the most expensive card in my deck to my hand
and set its cost to 0!
Spooky.
So you're going to use it?
Nope, I'm not!
Spell Card: Homecoming!
A spell card that costs 7?!
It returns all followers in play to our hands!
Now I end my turn, Subaru.
Nice.
But sending my cards back to my hand won't stop the party!
My turn! Draw!
Time to give it my all!
First, I play Mini-Ghost Bakelus!
Its effect creates a Ghost!
And then, this!
Parade Raven!
Its effect activates,
destroying one follower in play, and performing a Reanimate 5!
And then Bakelus's Last Words activate!
It adds a Bakelus without Last Words to my hand!
Now, Reanimate!
Is that...
When Reanimate activates,
a destroyed follower with a cost closest to Reanimate's value
is randomly chosen and put into play.
This is Reanimate 5,
so it puts into play the follower with the highest cost of 5 or less
that was destroyed during this battle!
And that's this!
Masquerade Ghost's effects put a Ghost into play and strengthen it!
Two Ghosts attack your leader!
I end my turn.
And then Masquerade Ghost's effect activates!
This is, for now, the best I can do, Mimori.
Yeah. I've felt it, Subaru.
I'll... I'll answer you with my full power, too!
My turn! Draw!
First, I play Fairy Whisperer!
Its effect adds two Fairies to my hand!
And then I play this spell card!
Homecoming again?
It returns all of our followers to our hands!
But you can't win, Mimori.
You have just 4 defense left, and I still have an evolution point.
Fairy Whisperer has cost 2!
First
Second
Forestcraft
Shadowcraft
Homecoming has cost 0!
You can't play...
You still have that many play points?
Yes, because the Homecoming I just played cost 0!
So that's it... The card you added to your hand with the Wolf,
and then set its cost to 0, was...
That's why my turn is just getting started!
I play one 0-cost Fairy and three 1-cost Fairies!
And then my favorite...
May the forest and fairies protect me.
Help me, Brilliant Fairy!
That's your...
Brilliant Fairy's effect activates
and increases the attack and defense of one follower by 1!
And then if I've played four or more cards this turn,
I add 2 to the attack of all Fairies and give them Storm!
I'm happy I got to battle you!
You beat me. Really.
Here I go, Subaru!
I attack your leader with all my Fairies!
Fly, my Fairies!
That was fun!
Thank you.
Thanks to you, I think I might feel a little better.
I feel better after battling you, too.
And I think I've figured out how to deal with my feelings.
I have to keep looking forward.
Yeah, me, too.
I'm going to talk to her, the way you talked to me.
And say, "Sorry!"
I want Shadowverse to excite me the way it excites you.
Okay, I'll be going.
Yeah, see you later.
Hello? Alice?
I think I do want to meet you in person.
Okay.
What's wrong, Slade?
You can't just come out like that.
A DigiFriend?

Parade Raven
Today's card is this.
Parade Raven!
Hm hm.
It's got Rush, and...
Hm hm.
If you destroy another follower, it Reanimates...
Hm hm. Hm hm!
That makes it really hard to talk!
Come over here, Slade, Demonia.

That tickles!
