[Sub][Episode 8] CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD will+Dress S2 - Brand of the Witch 

No one gonna talk about the fact Raika's acknowledging Yu-Yu and Tohya as his friends? Character growth! :D

"'it's time for the heavens to fall.' was it? Sure i'll let it fall, on top of you it is." Maybe one of the most burn roast line in Dress series for now.

Okay, Sophie obviously showing her inner sadist, Raika vowing to beat the Witch, Uniformers plot thickens, and Urara being used for malicious ends. This season is getting intense.

I swear, after this episode it seems things about this fight were foreshadowed in episode 2. Dialogue from episode 2: Raika: "What true colors are you hiding under that mask?" Sophie: "Well, if you put it that way… Would you like to rip my mask off?" Raika: "I don't need to. As long as you keep hiding your true colors, victory shall be mine." Raika: "Sophie Belle." Sophie: "What is it?" Raika: "You're still hiding something." Sophie: "Next time, let's play with just the two of us. That time, I shall show you my true magic." Not only did they say mask, but also Raika said victory will be his as long as Sophie hides her true colors, and she said she'll show her true magic the next time they fight. Then, six episodes later, i.e. this episode, they fight again and what happens? Sophie reveals things to Raika about Uniformers, and she shows off a Masques unit, and Raika loses.

Sophie barking is making me feel things

The moment Sophie Belle challenged Raika, I knew that a Masque was not far off

So Raika wanted to buy Urara a present, right? She is probably the only friend he has that likes chocolates/sweets. Anyhow wow, hearing Kourin's voice here is so weird, but I love this witch. Love how she is just looking down on Raika. Can't wait for the rematch.

The Wan Wan moment was real fire ngl

I think Raika will be one of the most important characters, his face dont even appears in the opening, just youthberk appears and we know that something will happen with him

Oh man here we go here we go HERE WE GO!! Plot kicking in full gear and i never felt so excited and scared at the same time for Vanguard lol since the Link Joker season. Which is funny considering the conflict this season really followed it beats.

Sophie is such a perfect depiction of a sadist you love to hate, but can't completely dislike. She's so pretty, yet displays such ugliness of character in such a suave way that she really bewitches and strings viewers along like a witch. It's so weird to hear serious and uptight Kourin's VA do such a different character! Truly fantastic voice acting breadth. I can't help but feel she just wants to fight someone who can go toe-to-toe with her without breaking. Cursed by being too gifted in everything she does, she wants to create a fighter who can overwhelm and challenge her... But that's just a guess.

Man I expected episode would be awasome given Sophie was in but didnt expect it would hit this hard. Sophie not just obliterate Raika also explained project Uniformers like its nothing. I cant believe people give up their individuality knowingly just to get stronger Michiru included. And next week we gonna see Lianorn masques against Tomari. Every episode its becoming harder to wait next one.

JESUS THIS EPISODE WAS INTENSE, from what it look like, this season is going to be where the main cast get corrupted and lose and I have a theory where in the next season we are going to have a change in the main character like mirei or shinobu or something, either way this was a awesome episode

So the evil plan of the evil organization is read fighter´s minds to create an AI who will be the ultimate fighter. AI art is evil even here. Nice to see Tomari in the preview.

11:42 I like that while she isn't exactly lying, she's not giving the full truth, they don't force them per se, but they break their recruitees spirit by showing their power and how they don't match to the uniformers, I bet that had raika wasn't a mentally strong as he was to not break after this fight and had she tried to recruit him, he would have joined...

22:00 First sophie asking you to be gentle with her, and now her barking… Vanguard really starting to make me question their decisions here… 🫥 Edit : specially since she is also kourin’s VA

This season is the best in all OverDress series. We have a fight in every episode, and something major happens almost every time. Keep with the good work Bushi.

Sophie has gotten me FERAL this episode

Raika has the coolest theme ever.

I need to say, when the cards got revealed i liked the mecha the most, but Astrea got me with the Masque design

I'm excited for this episode. Really interested to see the new Masques cards.

Sophie is such a demon lmao, she devastated Raika.

I bet Will Dress Season 2 will have Bad Ending where the Uniformers successfully corrupt Yuyu, Michiru, Urara, Raika and Zakusa to become Masques.

I'm getting "reverse" vibes from these new cards and where this series is going and I LOVE IT. Even the intensity of the fight showed how strong these new units are and how the "thirst for power" comes through , excited to see more ✨

this episode was not a let down, great pacing, music, bruh this season is so good.

Holy its really kicking off.

Great episode as always. So it seems like Uniformers plan is collecting the data of Vanguard fighters and making them forget their individual traits while fighting in virtual space. Urara😭

a brilliant performance from youthberk. As always but uhh they got nukes.

Sophie and Raika is the Denji and Makima of vanguard

The next episode preview look like Urara still not brainwashed yet, i think she will get brainwashed after she got Masques card in her hand during her duel with Tomari.

Stand up, the Vanguard

I saw the brainwashing coming but that reveal definitely was done well. Very worried to see what is going to happen next. Also I believe that jinki's brother is still alive and is the one behind everything.

So this Cray Elemental Looking thing on the screen is probably the "utilamte fighter" AI created by collecting the data of each individual promising fighter through their simulation fights during phase 3 of their training program at uniformers.

So sophie's deck not only does dark irregulars stuff (just like Michiru & the greedon kid), and Narukami self binding, but also Genesis Revalation without rearguard resting...that's just not fair

the barking ... shes a menace but cant hate her also did give him advice ironically on the gift

Fooling people into eliminating their individuality claiming its for the betterment of humanity. Reminds me of Kyoya Gaean from Future Card Buddyfight.

22:01 Woof woof🐶

17:24 so that was her real trump card she was holding out on from their last match.

Yup so it's confirmed that Masques is the new Reverse per say. SPOILERS! Well that's to be expected that Raika got crushed by Sophie, and we get to see Xeno Almajestar, Astroea=Bico Masques in action, also we now have an idea about what Project Uniformers is and wow is it so messed up when you think about, for once I can agree to Raika that what they're doing is wrong in so many ways than one, Also the way Sophie acts is so Toxic, making fun of Raika's ride lines like that, if they would rematch in the future (if Raika doesn't join Uniformers that is), I wished he would make fun of hers at some point. Another thing to note is the fact that Michiru is not eating, which might become the cause of his death, also Urara is on phase 3 in Project Uniformers meaning she had already thrown her individuality and based on the preview She and Tomari will fight which most likely be the Debut of Lianorn Masques.

They don't want to make Michiru into the ultimate fight, they want to make said ultimate fighter from the ground up. I wonder how an AI can cardfight tho. Maybe they will have it take over Michiru's body.

19:48 BUSHI CAUGHT ME DOWN BAD

Can I say it? Just once? Only if you wish to suffer. "Fall. FOREVER. Tee hee. :p "

The car strikes again! We though Overdress was safe from this menace!

My "prediction" became true, a bit obvious rly, so Lianorn Masques next, That is so cool! can't wait!

22:00 My Heart!!!!

Sophie bell thinking your so strong cuz you have the max number of critical triggers in your deck but yea it was expected Raika would lose. Sophie aside I like the Astroea deck personally it’s a good build. Next episode is going to be good

Oh hey... 22:00 how can she be so cute and beautiful at the same time ? And that new astroa ? Waifu tax babyyy

I wonder if, managing to create "the ultimate fighter", will let them aquire Psyqualia or something similar

Oh no...Shingi got Miguel'd D:

Who is this "Gui" ??

So we might see a Lianorn and Drajeweled masques cards? Hmmm, that would make 2 Dark States and 2 Stoichea...

Lets goo cmon Raika please pull through do go to the dark side. If he does have to get turned I hope it’s not by this witch. I hope he loses to michiru. I think Sam will save him this week if he does lose. Lets go raika you can do it

Raika, don't you dare lose to her

12:31 It's not really brainwashing if it's consensual and they were properly informed about how it works. Course it doesn't make sense that anyone who wasn't completely obsessed with getting stronger and victory would agree to such terms.

“There’s not a single fighter who can overturn my world” I can’t wait for raika to get payback on her and destroy her world. 😡

I like Masques units because there pretty much the closest thing we can get as reversed units for the standard format.

Now the root of dragon tree has made the heaven falls, now the root start seeping into the deep darkness

22:00 the​ Best​ since Of​ ep

What are those damn uniformers planning

Its official, Masque units are Overdress's version of Reverse units

Sweet Gyze this is going from 11 to 100 fast!

A bit off topic, but I realized Sophie voice sounds kinda familiar When I googled it apparently she is the same voice actor as Kokomi from Genshin and Kourin from the og Vanguard

I honestly expect a Sophie vs Michiru in the next season.

Can't wait for the next episode

this feels like united sanctuary when kanzaki was in charge

Cartas y Conspiraciones hacen una buena mezcla XD

after 2 to 3 seasons I want to see these guys colab with aichi amd choro....that would be lit as fkkk

its time for masqued unica, i cant wait

Bruh. CIA. The Government. AI dominance. In MY Vanguard anime?! DO NOT PINCH ME I DON'T WANNA WAKE UP! And "apparently" Jinki's brother died of a car accident. Bruh. I watched a lot of true crime dramas and documentaries. Ain't no way it's just that. Also, 22:00 What a troll lol. Shinonome and especially Masanori could never.

They literally just released Astroea 🤣 who ever said they don't release upgrade units after they had their initial release

Oh God the card game anime is becoming a card game anime! I'm here for the aliens.

Urara i feel will be the one to resist the training cuz she already concentrates in on her gameplay or the tune of her deck skrta speak. Shell get the training and will take down the organization

So we've gotten Dark States and Stoicheia Masque units, we're still missing Brandt Gate, Dragon Empire, and Keter Sanctuary's. I wonder what they'll do and who'll be targeted for the other Uniformers?

I swear non of these cats would be able to step to aichi, kai, or ren if they randomly strolled through.

Why do I get the feeling that Uniformers' Ultimate Fighter project is essentially manufacturing their own Gyze by stripping that person of all emotions and individuality other than Vanguard.

Youthberk Revolform:Masque when?

Great episode

It’s masking time (soon) Edit: the time is now!

Damn so basically reverse units are back

OMG its the tower event plot from VGZero lmao

Isn't this the same as Link Joker? Only difference is the motive and that their more subtle about it. Seems like their playing the long game instead of Link Joker who rushed their change the moment they had their core players.

So it's a mix of uni sanctuary from the G Era again with reverse/ corrupted units

MAKIMA, IS THAT YOU?!?!?!

Hey know it funny the ai dose this remind you of the opening the place danji and hazam was in also Ester egg

I am now taking bets on Raika vs Sophie

Woof woof indeed

Can't wait for yu yu to lit back the flame in urara s heart

Sophie is Makima confirmed.

Is it just me or is there a certain romantic tension between Raika and Sophie?

Can't wait

I can't wait to see the New mirror vairina

Man I can’t wait for the new revolform that will destroy her

So is Shingi Yuyu’s dad?! They have somewhat similar hair color. There has to be a reason why we didn’t see his face during season 1.

I want see grade 10 unit fight new valrina

Dude Raika, you guard too much in the early game, now you lack shields

Wow. After Zorga's reveal last week, this was overall very underwhelming I feel. It's a huge puzzle that's going to struggle with the 8 crits limit, not to mention it's... I dunno... Zorga has a big engine and threatening moves, this just doesn't. It's Viamance Bruce level. They really had Raika brick and Sophie had maximum output to make this scenario. Also, Sam ? You're the bloody CIA and this person is an accomplice of definitely not OK human experimentation and knows about the stolen datas. ARREST HER for the love of god. Oh wait, you haven't beaten her in a cardgame, you can't. My bad.

Guys how about this A revolform that activates revoldress and treat it as persona ride

listen bro im not into it but im into it sophie bell woo lawd. also why they gotta show my homie getting completely getting nuked from space multiple times. so youth lost means new form yes. the mask gimmick i guess is this timelines link joker

to be honest I can't see the little girl from uniformers as a villain but I can see Sam as a villain

I kinda ship them
