[Sub][Episode 12] CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD will+Dress S2 - An Alternate Future 

Michiru: You don't have any CB, so I win. Me: Oh, he is going to call a Counter-Charger and win. Danji: I ride Drajeweled! Me:...I'm sorry, WHAT!?

I might as well point it out but I do love how the entire plot of the villain faction is to essentially create a tier 0 meta. It's not a taking over the world plot which is honestly a massive breath of fresh air compared to most other tcg animes airing now.

The best episode for this season, the unexpected play from Danji and using Drajeweled as VG and Bruce as RG make it kind of symbolism as "I wont let you be alone" I want to know the lore for this now. Last thing, hope they announce the release date of song collection today. Oh also don't forget Danji said "Ore no Bunshin! " Nice touch to Aichi called Blaster Blade as his Bunshin/Avatar

>Uses Bruce Deck >Got CB deny >Rides to Drajeweled >Refuses to elaborate Danji confirmed gigachad

Despite the danger, this episode really feels like 2 friends just messing around. Danji even put in that super spicy tech-in(Drajeweled) as if they were playtesting. The fight feels relatable too, with soulcharging Overtrigger to Danji's final turn being messy af.

This episode basically paints the dark state experience. OT got soul charged.

"Bunshin"... Not something I was expecting to hear this episode, but man it's nice to hear it again after so long.

I love in the end Jinki still have some humanity and worry about Michiru, he isn't some kind of psychopath, he just a guy whi made a deal with the devil and can not return now

Jinki having morals to the health of Michiru here really adds a depth to his character. He’s not quite as goofy of a villain like Takuto or Gyze but a tragic character bound by his desire to fulfill his brother’s dream. He sees the lines he crossed but knows he is too deep to stop. I hope that they focus on this more in the next season as they flesh out the motivations of each character further. So far my favourite part of this iteration of VG is just the individual goals of its characters being grounded to a believable reality. Its not “save the world” but more to figure out oneself and I think for an audience that’s grown up to vanguard, its really nice to have that over “cray is in danger and I am fighting to save my mystical friends”

I was expecting Danji vs Michiru to be as impactful as the opening suggested, but the fight itself exceeded my expectations. The overtrigger soulcharges, Danji using both Bruce and Drajeweled (as in, both fighters' aces) and the messed up finale when it was decided by banking on drawing triggers, it had everything going.

There were a lot of moments I like in this fight. Soul charging the OT, the heavy emphasis on the trigger checks. Also, Danji second ride is reminisce of the first seasons of Vanguard, when fighters rode different Grade 3s for different vanguard effects.

This ep was a good callback to the old days of Rivals bringing back their friends using their old ace units. Kinda a trope at this point, but nice to see here! Also Danji said the thing! Hehe

This episode had so many twists and turns. I really liked how Danji and Michiru's friendship was portrayed and the epicness of their battle, I seriously wasn't expecting Danji to use Drajeweled. But as upbeat as the most of the battle was, things quickly turned dark...

this season was incredible and this whole series is absolutely beautiful. this episode... wow. let me just say i have seen a LOT of tcg anime, and I've never seen anything like this. writing, voice acting, execution, visuals-- unbelievable. hats off :)

Danji riding Drajewelled was SUCH A TWIST nobody expected! NOW THAT'S A LOT OF DAMAGE!!! Both emotional and in the game! Michiru abandoned Drajewelled, to go after the most optimum fight; but Danji used Drajewelled to completely overturn the fight and in the most unoptimal fight, won. That's cool as heck!

Best fight yet. The tense atmosphere as well as the ending for Michiru really strikes home that this might be the last time we ever see him again. At least, in a physical body...

Fight, animation and episode was awasome for season final. Danji using both drajeweled and bruce was unexpected and I cant believe Michiru is at coma now😭. I dont know how I will be be able to wait but see you all next season👋

14:51 This is easily the most insane plot twist in vanguard history And michiru’s laughter🤣🤣 Edit: 20:02 Danji bringing his and michiru’s avatar together was phenomenal

This fight has been one of the most fun I've seen in a while! Seems like the kind of fun and shenanigans two friends would have to get up too.

There's so much to unpack here in this cardfight and I love it, first is the fact that they both soul charged their overtrigger i firmly believe it was written this way so the fight is purely on their own judgment and skill, no ot shenanigans just a brawl and Danji's use of drajeweled just sent me to the moon it was so out of left field! Even the final turn where he said "Here's my Double!" I got chills from all the way back in og Vanguard "Stand Up my Avatar!" God I loved this episode! I can't wait for the rest of it!!! Stand Up Vanguard!

Danji played some crazy mind games in this episode. He played Drajeweled specifically because he knew Bruce would get countered, and it all came down to top decking in the end.

The intro warned us but here I am getting caught off guard… - No!! not Michiru… he gone ☠️ - Poor Zakusa… what did they do to him 😞😞

My reaction to this episode: AAAAAARRGHHH WTF?! That was really fun episode that ended on a serious and sad note.

*Spoiler warning, just in case.* This is the best one. There has never been a more perfect, more nail-biting fight in all of the Vanguard anime. Normally, you can predict who will win based on what the story has been leading up to, and despite the fights being enjoyable to watch, it's often quite easy to figure it out. But *_Danji,_* being equally as much of a juggernaut as Michiru, held just as many routes to victory as his opponent. The fact that the whole thing just fell apart into a dirty, scrappy mess, using whatever they could get their hands on and banking on trigger checks made it feel so much more real and that it really could have gone either way. I appreciate Danji's cries the most, the roar when he finds Bruce was nothing short of magical. He alone could bring life to a morgue, the man's energy is so raw, flawlessly driving home that feeling of just playing card games with friends. And Vanguard dealing with something as long-term as a coma?? An insanely dark writing choice that I have so much respect for, especially considering that even Jinki; the until-now-big-bad of will+Dress, took issue with it. I have been enjoying overDress as a whole so much and it just continues to get better, I'm so happy it's not just card advertisement any more, we've finally gone past that and it's truly incredible. Also side note, I want to build Bruce-Jeweled now. 👀

Some predictions and things I'd like for the next season(let me know if you (dis)agree and/or what are yours): Predictions: -the will dress ride lines of the new heroes(jheva and viamance too) will get G4 because why not(i just hope bavsagra gets a g4) - Raika might get either a G4 + g4 revolforms or get an "ultimate" revolform(my guess is revolform: storm or hurricane) -There will be a tournament where all the rivalries will be settled but they will be beaten by jinki and/or zakusa before getting beaten by either yu-yu or danji -Halona will use hexaorb, arkhite or a lyrical monasterio ride line Things I'd like(somewhat) but doubt will happen: -Megumi joins uniformers(she seemed not all there when urara asked and considering that she hasn't proven to herself and the world that she is danjis successor her seeking greater strength is a possibility.) - uniformers will seek out yu-yu: they have every reason to want yu yu on their side especially after this episode, he is strong, he is the first person to ever defeat michiru(as far as we know),the first person to make someone actually leave the uniformers, he defeated mirei which was an amazing feat according to everyone and they've lost michiru he can be a valuable asset should they get him. I doubt this will happen because zakusa is there and its likely gonna be a yuyu vs zakusa final fight but still it could happen especially when you remember the dark yuyu art from vairina esperaridea, i want to see dark yu yu for some reason idk

This is probably my favorite episode of the season. I'm a big Danji fan and it was so cool to see a episode that was just peak Danji. AND THAT DRAJEWELED.

Great final episode of Season 2. I was not expecting Danji to pull out Drajeweled. This fight was probably one of the best one for this Season. I’m sad about Michiru😭 I can’t wait for Season 3 of will+Dress this summer

*Spoiler Warning* Danji riding drajewled is the biggest plot twist of the century!

Bro... This cardfight was almost as hard as how the original series would go into it, showing off how dangerous it can be... but also how much fun it is to cardfight and how strong bonds are during it. This hurts man. Amazing episode, but painful. Not only that, but Jinki also being upset with his little AI over this, seeing Michiru's health be put in jeopardy like this, actually makes me feel for him a bit. I almost pegged him as a psychopath. I still might, but at least i know that he has a heart. Danji, great move with the Drajeweled. I should have expected something like that, but I went for the obvious thought that you would go for a counter charge. "Not the most optimal or powerful move," Michiru said, "But it is the one that lead you to your future." In all honesty, I dunno anything more optimal than an unexpected, unoptimal, chance based strategy than that. It was high-risk high-reward, which is why it is suboptimal, but it paid off, making it the most optimal strategy out there. I can't wait to face something like this in Dear Days and Cardfight Area when i am with my friends. Truly, amazing cardfights to be held, but this one right here, will go down in history as one of the top fights, despite it not being as decorative with the units as the old show. Still, it was plenty flashy enough, and it held my attention till the very end. Amazing work. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait for next Friday.

Danji…is just Built Different. 😂 Someone needs to do an edit where “Believe in my existence” from the original series plays when he does that crazy play this Episode.

Each week I think the episodes couldn't get more exciting, and they always go beyond my expectations. And damn...from the intro way back then I just knew that something was gonna happen to Michiru...Seeing Jinki getting angry over Michiru's health was interesting. Can't wait for next week. Also....Damn Zakusa looking real threatening here

Danji's really out here pulling out the spiciest of spicy techs. What a chad.

The ending gave me Dranzer vs Black Dranzer vibes x3 never thought they'd pull that, but I'm glad they did x3

Probably best final fight i ever seen: i like both Danji and Michiru got Soul Charge Over Trigger and Danji using Drajeweled to beat Corrupt One, also i hope Megumi and Mirei has more role in Will Dress Season 3.

They made up for Danji's absence in the deluxe by having the best fights here

Not only was this season amazing; every episode was thrilling and enjoyable to watch from start to finish . Even more we got the most hype fight ever with an amazing twist and even a sad ending. See g this is how you kill off a character you don't have them appear once have him die then act like someone who knew him for a day needs o carry on his wishes. I digress great episode loved everything waiting for the next season will be killer but at least we dragon tree invasion released

NO BC, so much happened this episode and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!

The same feeling as Yu-Yu using Vairina Arcs in XOD 14:50

This episode was really a storm of emotions: first danji that soul charge an overtrigger was really a stroke of bad luck 😧, but then it happened to michiru too 😌, that danji that ride drajeweled really catch me off guard 🤯, in the last to turns i was really really afraid that danji would lose 😰, then danji called Bruce adressing at it as is "other self" like aichi with blaster blade 🤩, then michiru felt in coma 😢 (yes, i almost cried), we saw zakusa "transformation" 😳🥺😦😧😨 and the uniformers program was diffused in the all world probably 🥶. I really can't imagine what we will see in the next season

So next season we probably get Nirvana vs Griphogila Magnolia vs Greedon masked Bastion vs Zorga masked Seraph snow vs Orfist (masked probably) Youthberk vs Almejestar masked Liahorn (masked probably) vs whatever halona deck is...

danji made me remember in a format before this, people run different g3 as a backup vanguard in a scenario we can't get the g3 we want to ride

now that is the hype I love to see from Vanguard, makes me want to practice more with my deck.

Now that Michiru is gone, I wonder what the favor he asked Shinobu to do is.

NGL Danji riding drajewled nearly gave me a heart attack XD

We got hit by that April's Fool jokes also Masque Orfist pog

This is such an amazing episode great work to the va and animators

Madlad really caught me off guard with Drajeweled. What an April Fool's special on my end 🤣

Me (before the episode): Michiru will probably lose again due to OT Danji (Turn 1): Soulcharges OT Me: O.o

Michiru comas right after his deck becomes tier 1, feelsbadman

Coud've also been cool to see Bruce riding on Dragjeweled's back for his attack

Great episode and great fight totally didn't see the Drajeweled coming

I was surprised when danji just rode michiru’s ace against him, I didn’t expect that moment at all.

This is CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD will+Dress part 2 finale

This is the first time I see two characters using the same vanguard in the same game

best episode that perfect surprise ride left me stunned the feels of the final round even the villain had a heart and really shows how amoral the AI is

My man danji... he truly is the best character

Finally the anime got good with this season. Amazing, hope ppl will still give it a chance

Best episode of the series so far! Danji is number 1!!

Noooooooo Michiru noooooooo! This final is gold, is incredible and this battle is The Best of Overdress (With a Yu-yu vs Mirei)

20:21 I really like that part where Drajeweled clashes with its corrupted Evolution.

Best episode of the season

at 20:03 the subtitles say "my double", but the word he says in japanese is the same one Aichi uses to say avatar

Oh no...Zakusa has become a sith lord...

God damn that Drajeweled ride from Danji 🤣

10:11 DAMNNN DANJI NEW THEME IS COOL AF!!

This revenge match is gonna be insane 🔥🔥🔥

chad moment for danji, bangers episode.

I think that they will release the Season OST after this episode...I saw it on twitter 😳

Did anyone else get Original Series Kai vs Psyqualia Aichi vibes from this fight as well?

Never again will I be late for this! Also WTF. SPOILERS! Words cannot explain how intense and most realistic this fight was, definitely the best fight this season, both Danji and Michiru's Overtriggers were sent to the soul (so no OT BS), and how despite having bad boards right now both try and fight their way around them, also Danji riding into Drajeweled to destroy his own Masques form along with Viamence Bruce, which I found funny because it's like Drajewled said to his Masques form "Surprise b**** thought you can get rid of me that easily." Also 100% agree with Michiru's statement at the end of his first fight with Danji and this fight "It wasn't the strongest move or the most optimal. But it was a move that will lead you into the future." got a bit of G vibes with this one as well with the whole concept of the Future of Vanguard. Speaking of Michiru. I'm glad that Michiru didn't actually die, I thought many times throughout this season that Michiru would die because of how the first episode showed what happened to him, though he's in a coma which is just as bad, but at least he's alive, I guess for now he will be out of the story, and will become a driving force for Danji, Yuyu, Raika, and the others to fight back against Uniformers. Another Interesting thing here is the conversation between Jinki and Gui, Gui didn't stop Michiru because it's what he wanted, this might hint that Gui might betray Jinki at one point, I guess since Michiru is in a coma Zakusa will take over the role Michiru was given, which is he'll become a construct for the ultimate match. Overall this season has more emotion to it more than ever also the tone got darker with all this Uniformers, Gui, and Masques units going about, don't know if will+Dress season 3 will be Yuyu and firends fighting back against Uniformers, but we'll see.

I just love Michiru's innocent face 😅

will+Dress is basically Vanguard's version of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Revenge of the Sith rolled into one.

I can’t wait to see the lore explanation for this lol

What a cliffhanger. Gui's going full-on Skynet/Legion mode now. So when will this be back?

I love how they finally use sleeves!

😂😂😂 Now I think everyone will playtest using it in, see you all in summer 👋👋👋 Danji really the character builds differently than everyone else 🔥🔥🔥

Damn Michiru got shadowrealmed.

Danji was pulling this another Plot-Pull from his bottom with drajeweled

That Drajeweled play was such a bullshit anime moment and I love it

Normally I would be freaking hype for the match and I'm still am don't get me wrong. But I fear that regardless of the outcome, the aftermath won't be pretty and that's putting it VERY lightly. Hopefully I'm wrong tho....

My prediction come true..BUT at what cost ??!!

the feeling of draw your over tricker or just charge it... never felt so painful to look at.

Satisfy to hear this word again 20:00

Jinki angry at Michiru for being a fool to fall into a coma is like how the Emperor Palpatine was angry at Anakin for being a fool to get his limbs chopped off in "Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of The Sith" movie.

We’re not going anywhere until we find a save for cardfight in season 3

So this was the season finale? Zakusa, what did they do to you? Kinda sad Mirei was kinda sidelined, despite how she had the most screentime in the ending Imagine if Urara had a "Wait, the Uniformers had what?!" when she heard of the "Uniformers' Virtual Space". Despite having just came with them just minutes ago

14:52 When your friend got SSR same like you. SURPRISE MDFK!!

This fight was hype lets go.

The fight is very DS, soul charging OT

Stand up, the Vanguard

Nooo Michiru 😢😢

THE INSERT SONGS JUST GOT RELEASED GUYS

OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS WE COULD'VE LOST HIM. I was genuinely on the verge of tears and ngl this the first time i was relief at the word "coma" lol. Goddamnit what a season and we're only scratching the surface with the Uniformers invasion. I was gonna wrote the fight animation this season is a bit of a downgrade to season 1 of WD. But HOLY MOLY COW AND MACKEREL this fight more than makes up for it. Imo, 8.5. Also, it seems that Jinki has a little bit human in him. Interesting...... Also also, 20:02 nice👌👌

poor michiru and zakusa 😭

That´s the reason why i´m a bruce main 💯🏈💪🔥

I am curious to find out what will happen in next season

I suppose season three will be interesting, a full on assault !

This is the finale

Oh boy, next season gonna have drama 😮😮😮

Since Michiru conscious got locked in somewhere in virtual space. Watch him getting a power beyond Masques, like Kai's Rebirth. Drajewelled Overmasques.
