[Sub][Episode 3] CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD Divinez - Unparalleled and Miracles

I really like how Rezael skills designed, it's like the combined characteristics of United Sanctuary clans

[@jamesrobertson6591]

Also, it’s the first Keter Sanctuary Vanguard with skills that center around the damage zone. There have been a few Angel Feather like cards that involve the damage zone, but nothing definitively focused into a playable archetype. In a way, razeal’s skills to heal and call units from the drop zone is quite similar to Arch-aider, Malkuth-melekh.

[@littlebloodymooneporo]

Indeed, i'm just happy new mc got to use angel feather's spiritual successor

[@HAQEEMisHERE]

When Nao's ability makes her to keep attacking just like she wants to keep playing vanguard, and how akina's card ability is to heal others just like he wants to cure his sister are just beautiful.

As plot armor-y as Raizrel's divine effect is, it's also way too fitting too: angel that probably draws from the healing angel clan has an alternate method to heal themselves, albeit given how much time has passed can only do so when pushed to extreme stress... Oh boy, I hope that doesn't parallel what will happen to Akina given how someone once described Akina and Raizrel as like an ambulance rushing into an emergency to save a life

[@elin111]

Rezael is one of the few times Angel Feather themes feel like actual angels. How exactly is it angel-y to keep stabbing yourself to do damage checks? Revival and not dying is a lot more angel-y.

[@iqhmalRedux]

​@@elin111 Angel feather was initially about putting cards to damage (not damage check) and calling stuff from damage or adding them to hand. Gavrail and the Black Shiver department of Angel Feather were the ones about dealing damage to themselves over and over (rescue check).

Talk about an intense episode. I thought for sure Akina would lose when he pulled a critical trigger, was in disbelief when he revealed his Vangaurd’s Divine Skill lets him heal one damage if the sixth is a trigger. That’s one OP skill and its sure to set up the tension in his future fights.

[@Expelsword014]

Before that was revealed I thought his DS was really underwhelming compared to his opponent's. Shuffle back all your Critical Triggers from the Drop for 1 extra Drive? That's not bad in theory, but the amount of value you get back has a random element to it. Compared to a free re-Stand on a the Vanguard, even if you don't check any Triggers, that's still an additional attack and +2 cards.

For those curious for what rezael's skills are for proxies they arent on the wiki yet so I wrote them down Divine Skill - Once Per Game - Act - return all critical triggers from the drop zone to the deck and this unit gains 1 drive, aswell when your sixth damage check reveals a trigger heal 1 damage in addition to its trigger effects Once per turn - Auto - When this unit attacks you may CB1 if you do than call up to 2 units from the drop zone with their combined grade being less than or equal to your current damage take this with a hint of salt idk if the 2nd skill will be Once per turn but i dont see why it wouldnt be aswell idk how they will end up wording the divine skill

Ok honestly that was amazing. They still have time to mess up Nao but for now this was amazing! And although we didn't get the unit fights we all wanted I will say for once, and probably for now on I'm a fan of the main vanguard animations of the D/DZ series. Akina's who bit of not giving up even if he loses now gives him some actual leeway to lose in the Clash, (I mean not really but it's a cool thought). As for Nao, I don't really know what to say outside of I just love her character and really hope we get to see at least one more match out her this season because that was epic! Quick personal note for OST, not super happy we're still doing insert songs but eh I'll take Nao's theme cause that was awesome, take it or leave it with Aki's imo. Either way hyped for next episode and really hope Megumi is fighting, even if she loses to Divine Skill!

No one knows about those skills besides the 6, so pretty possible. What I know is who is that end? And what does he mean?

Megumi will probably play as a training partner.

[@AquaStyles]

I also agree with the leeway part. At first i thought his sister was terminally ill but after they cleared up she is just prone to sickness my first thought was aki can lose with little to no consequences (hopefully) which is better since we as an audience aren't going to be thinking "no way their going to kill off a little girl in a show targeted for kids." It adds volume to aki's character since his wish is just that his sister can live an active life and not the generic " i hope my sister doesn't die" sorry for the wall of text😅

Plus, the features character like Akina and Nao is likeable, hope to see more of Nao even through she lose this one. I still have not familiar with the energy card features but so now I can follow the fight.

[@symphonixblades]

well you will probably need some background from Dress series tho if you came back with DivineZ only . The place where they cardfought was at the end of Will+ Dress , same place where Yuyu ( Dress protagonist) fought against Will+Dress main antagonist. Megumi , Taizo and Masanori are all characters introduced in Dress series and two of them are main characters in DivineZ, is possible that other characters from Dress series will come back as well in future seasons. Raika ( from Will+ Dress as well) and Taizo were shown cardfighting in the TV in episode 1. DivineZ continues where Will+ Dress left off but with new protagonists , some new characters and some old characters coming back. So for better understanding of some of the old characters watching the Dress series ( Overdress and Will+ Dress is recommended) with that said you might understand the main plot only with DivineZ

Honestly I love the fact that the Overdress Era gave us more female Dragon Empire Users and both of them so far are so cool in their own way Spoilers! This episode basically tells us how and why Nao joins the fated clash which is her path to become pro (also was kinda expecting that the others who join the fated clash would have a freak out reaction when Gabwelius appeared to them for the first time, guess they didn't want to overuse the joke too much). I guess I was wrong that Nao's parents were involved in her path to becoming pro, which now looking at it like that makes it feel like there isn't much at stake on Nao's end compare to Akina in my opinion. Which in turn made it obvious who's gonna win. At first glance that is. I was surprised that the fated clash takes place in the area where the Will+Dress trio fought against the Uniformes and Gui, I also like how it shows that this is no ordinary cardfight based on what happens before that. As for the fight itself, wow they're pulling all the stops already for the music and animation. I like how both Rezael and Varga Drages plays so far, Varga Drages skill is like a combination of Dragonic Overlord and Bavsargra but you risk your own front row being wiped, but as Nao states you can use different units to make it's drawback beneficial to you also the fact that this unit has a chance to attack up to 4 times thanks to it's Divinez skill as well as DE Overtrigger makes the "Unparalleled" title very fitting for this unit as it won't stop attacking until it slices the opponent to bits also makes sense why it uses two swords. Then there's Rezael who has the ability to revive it's allies from drop to making it a good counter especially against retiring decks also good for multi-attacks, also it's Divinez skill which is returning all Crits from drop to deck and drive +1 increasing odds of getting a trigger, at first glance I thought "Wait if that's it's divinez skill then why did you use it already?" which I genuinely thought Akina misplayed there for a second but boy was I proven wrong, there's a reason why Rezael has the title of "Miracles" because of the extension of his Divinez skill which if he 6th damages a trigger unit besides a heal trigger he can heal one damage (which I find ironic since the first time Akina fights Nao his 6th damage was a Crit and thus loses, this time however it saves him from defeat and it gave him the victory, also liked how the two crits symbolized the fact that both Draga Varges swords shatters as Rezael deals the finishing blow), which is definitely a powerful skill since Rezael already increases your chance of pulling triggers which means Crits are this guy's go to trigger type a few things that bother me with it's skill is that: 1. Does the divine skill (the 6th damage Crit = Heal) last until the end of the opponent's turn after activation on your previous turn or is the ability active even after several turns have passed until to the point that Rezael gets 6th damage crit heal? and; 2. What happens if you pull an Overtrigger do you still heal damage making it so you end up with 4 damage or not? What do you think? So after the fight, one thing that stood out to me is the quote Akina said to Nao which taught her a good lesson curious on who told her that quote the first time, it is also revealed that all of the other participants are present and were watching the whole thing which means the other three fated ones are now aware of Akina, another thing that bothered me is the fact that Suo is participating in the Fated clash yet has no wish which is definitely weird, so is the final scene for the episode where fox-mask here says that death awaits Akina, which could mean two things Akina or Hikari dies which is unsettling to say the least. Next episode reveals that Megumi and Mikoto will most likely fight (probably for practice for the fated clash, and just a hunch but I think Akina's next opponent would most likely be Mikoto.) which I'm curious whether or not Mikoto will use the fated deck against Megumi and whether or not we get a new Magnolia form from this or just show off new support for Magnolia.

[@theswordofsacredfire6517]

For rezael’s divine skill, I think the trigger effect resolves first. If you get a heal trigger and heal a damage, it’s no longer a 6th damage check, so the divine skill doesn’t activate. And for checking the ot, it removes itself from the trigger zone, so it isn’t counting as a damage at that point, so I think you still stay at 5 damage. We’ll see how bushi clears the wording up soon.

[@Otes-th7id]

Can someone explain nao's important card abilities to me?

[@knexell5894]

@@Otes-th7id From my understanding from this episode Varga Drages' skill is The first one is a "When this unit attacks" skill where it retires all front row rear guards of both players and it gets +10k power, and then it also has a "At the end of the battle this unit attacked" skill where it stands with Drive -2. (most likely these two skills are linked with [1/Turn] Similar to Grade 3 Zedlance's skill) The second one the Divinez skill most likely is another "At the end of the battle this unit attacked" skill this time though it is only activated if the opponent has 4 or more damage by paying the cost it will stand but this time instead of losing Drive -2 it's Drive +2

​@sumboyuknow9764 it's not the full effect of the skill really. It allows them to play the turn 4 card without cost or using your order for the turn, charge energy, draw, and then it auto damages before swing because the operator skill is on attack, not after attack.

[@starbound100]

​@@sumboyuknow9764welstra Is deceptively simple, but don't be fooled, it is very very good for what welstra wants to do.

[@benhwa101]

​@@sumboyuknow9764 that would be assuming Taizo had already acquired the Fated card at that point of time and using it at that tournament. which i think is unlikely. plus turn 3 Fullblast is crazy

Good in fiction, not in real life. If you see someone with a mask alone at night RUN

[@Arishulmr]

My theory as to the warning in the end (spoiler alert) is Hikari might lose her life before the fated clash ends, same way as Rezael, akina's ace card, lost his lover. That's why his wish will never come true.

[@Dizaster1995]

I like how they showed nao ran multiple decks, from keter to stoichea to dragon empire

[@zellaus2649]

End of episode spoiler I feel like that fox mask guy could be lying, making a threat, or telling the truth, and I dunno which it is. Entertaining plot so far at least

[@kingbl4de734]

Either that or it could be a hidden side effect of the wish

[@BushidoRoad]

There may be more to this battle than what the dragon plushy is letting on.

[@mysticstrike3826]

@@BushidoRoad I agree, I dont trust the plushie. I think its a red-haring and the fox mask dude is good while the plushie is evil.

[@romanov3937]

Are they going to reveal that Rezael is secretly evil or something? The fox mask guy made it sound like Rezael was going to get rid of Akina once he won or lost the tournament. Either that or Rezael will take Aki's good health and transfer it to his sister, making Aki really really sick.

[@deathred7371]

Maybe not much relation, but in V, in the Shinemon arc there was an angelic unit very similar to Razael whose price to pay for "reviving" units was to sacrifice himself, Razael may be able to heal but it has a "cost".

[@romanov3937]

@@deathred7371 The cost in Razeal's case? His human partner.

[@therranolleo468]

As powerful as Rezael's Divine Skill seems, its probably a lot more volitale since it probably only lasts for 1 turn instead of the whole game till you get a 6th damage trigger

[@kodokutamashi1569]

Not one turn dummy! Until end of opponent's turn.

Rezael is probably going to be one of the most technical decks, and honestly I'm just so hyped

I have a good chant for Varga Dragres's ride. "Blade of Yin, blade of Yang. The unbeatable swordmaster who wields both blades in hand, come forth and cut through the cloud of darkness. Ride! Fated One of The Unparalleled, Varga Dragres." What do you guys think?

[@momokonihin583]

Amazing

[@jremydadude6238]

Man that fight is what Willdress especially in the later seasons should've been from start to finish. Another week, another good one, except this one BANGS way more. Despite losing Nao is still best girl. Never giving up on her dreams and won't let a death game ish lose stop her lol. And i do like Aki here tho, not too confident and a bit frazzled. And at the end, of course it is. Ain't no way a tournament called FATED CLASH has no caveats.

[@Raaxx..]

Dang raizel’s skill is just op

[@Expelsword014]

From the way the subtitles explain the skills, using Varga's DS to re-Stand first and give it +2 Drive, then re-Standing it normally with Drive -2 after would give you an extra 4 Drive checks compared to the inverse. However, that's *so* ridiculous I have to assume that it is not allowed.

[@reverseflash7095]

The guy purposely not responded to not put guilt nor more pressure on his senpai 😢

[@IvanJoseph-zv1lv]

You know I just realized every episode 1 and 2 it always have to be low budget but in episode 3 we get high quality animation this gotta be a pattern

[@nhatphinguyen7785]

Rezael skill is broken, It DivineZ skill shuffle all critical trigger from drop to deck to get 1 drive, can call two units and can change any trigger from 6th damage to heal trigger, also Dagress skill is broken too, Dagress have Bavsargra skill except gain Critical, can stand minus 2 drive and it DivineZ skill allow it stand again and get 2 drive back.

[@kodokutamashi1569]

Wrong! The retire 1 skill is from the RG that boosted him. Varga Dragress skill is only to retire both fighters front row and +10k. Then Divine Skill is when making Dragress stand for the 3rd time and regains his drive.

[@delllee4915]

18:07 This is my favorite moment of the episode

[@delllee4915]

I think I have a sneaking suspicion as to who the masked person is...... Anyone who's seen Fate Stay Night would know exactly who Archer's true identity was. I think this guy is this show's Archer.

Ima say it, I love Yuyu more, I love Nirvana and the Vairinas more, I love Kagero and Overlords, but this series, Rezeal, and Akina is just Epic the anime is better then the past 5 seasons

@@ZenithintheMaking lol though it's understandable. Rezael's divine skill ... "nuts" can't even begin to cover it Honestly, I think without the "heal on getting trigger during 6th damage check" effect, his divine skill is pretty okay

[@yongchenseng4739]

have the cards start sales？

[@joshuaamadeusishak1887]

So, the ride deck units now have a Forerunner like skill?

[@symphonixblades]

only the Fated One's for now. They are probably testing it out to see if this works

[@joshuaamadeusishak1887]

​​@@symphonixblades But you know, this type of forerunner is more useful than the original forerunner. Only grade 0s have the forerunner skills, so, they are more than often useful as a freebie rearguard on the early part of the game and most of them have additional skill for all kinds of thing and more than often, the skill lets them to be sent to the soul so that they can be used for soulblast later on. However, grade 1 and grade 2 units with forerunner like skills on this fight can be useful not only as a rearguard for attacks but also have useful skills when they are called.

[@reyajudante4408]

The divine skills are real or are exclusive of anime? I like Varga Drages but I will prefer that Nao has a Chinese Dragon card because practically all dragons in Vanguard are humanoids (Except Drajeweled). This battle was nice and Nao's story is simple but nice, I already want to see the story of the new characters (And old).
