Cardfight Vanguard 2011

The VF Circuit has been over for months, and Aichi's life has returned to normal. He's a high school student in a new school now, and is having trouble adjusting. When Ishida, a terminally foul-tempered student, follows him to Card Capital, will Aichi end up making a new friend? A rival? Or an enemy?

When Aichi attempts to form a Cardfight Club at his high school, Kourin is his first recruit. But then she makes a rule to only let in students who beat her or Aichi in a match. Will they be the only two members? Or does Ishida stand a chance?

It seems that Kourin has a stalker at school, and his name is Shingo. Naoki just wants to hit the guy, but Shingo insists on a Cardfight instead!

The Student Council doesn't like how the Cardfight Club is making waves, so they send a Cardfighting member of the Football Club to crush Aichi before he can make his club official!

The Cardfight Club needs just one more member to become an official club, but the deadline is only hours away! Misaki seems to be their best hope, but does she want to join? Will Kourin even agree to give her a shot? And even if the answer is yes to both... Misaki will have to fight and beat one of the strongest members of the club to be accepted!

If Aichi's Cardfight Club doesn't beat Kai's Vanguard Club in a series of intramural matches, they'll have to disband! It's a tall order to begin with, but making matters worse, the first match is between newbie Naoki and Kai!

Aichi's Cardfight Club has to win three out of five matches against Kai's high school team, or they'll be forced to disband. The current count is 1-1, but in the third match, Misaki goes up against a familiar pint-sized "ringer." Whoever wins this match will be just one step away from victory!

In the final, decisive match of the intramural game against Hitsue High's Vanguard Club, Aichi fights Morikawa, who's a pushover except when he's forced to use a balanced deck. But this time, the balanced deck is Kai's! Does the deck make the fighter? Find out here!

Picking the captain of the Cardfight Club is easy, but not so much with the vice-captain, when four (out of five) members want the same position. What to do in this situation? Stand up, Vanguard!

The middle school division of Miyaji Academy also has a Cardfight Club, helmed by Emi, her best friend, and a mystery member! But when Komoi and Naoki pay a surprise visit to give them some fighting "guidance," the question becomes... who schools whom?

Rekka is the third member of the middle school Vanguard Fight Circle! Can Aichi preserve his club's dignity by winning a match against her? Or is it already too late when Komoi falls head over heels for Rekka?!

While taking a tour of Fukuhara High's Vanguard Club to catch their eventual rivals in action, Aichi and his Cardfight Club witness two powerful combatants in a "friendly" match: AL4's Assassin, Asaka and Leon Souryu!

Naoki tries to prove himself by fighting Suiko! The return of an old frenemy of Aichi's! And the promise of a formidable challenge ahead...

It's time for Miyaji Academy's school festival, and the Cardfight Club is going to participate... but the vice-president of the Student Council forces them to put on a play. Is Miyaji Academy ready for a fairy tale-Vanguard mash-up play, written and directed by Komoi? Will the vice-president derail their efforts and succeed in embarrassing Aichi and company? And who's the surprise guest at th...

The legendary Cardfighter Daigo is back, and this time he's in a match with Kourin. All eyes from Miyaji Academy are riveted on the fight, but will the Cardfight Club's play have a happy ending?!

The elimination round of the VF High School Championship begins with Aichi's Miyaji Academy versus Hitsue High, home to heavy hitters like Kai and... Miwa?! Misaki learns just how strong Miwa can be in a fight when he's totally serious about it!

This is the match that decides which team gets cut from the VF High School Championship! It's Aichi versus Izaki, normally not a nail-biting match-up, but Kai and Miwa have given Izaki special training beforehand... and on top of that, Izaki has a passionate reason of his own to beat Aichi!

It's the beginning of the final round of the VF High School Championship, Kanto Block 3, with Aichi's club pitted against Ren's! First up is Naoki in a rematch against Suiko, who bested him only a few weeks earlier. Has Naoki gotten strong enough to beat one of the tough members of Ultra-rare?!

Two strong fighters, Kourin and Asaka Narumi (the "Beautiful Assassin"), face off for the second match of the Block 3 elimination finals. Both have a strong motivation to win, but what will be the deciding factor that tips the fight one way or the other?

It's Aichi versus Ren and his Shadow Paladin deck! Has Ren returned to the dark side where he's well-nigh omnipotent? If Aichi wins this match, the Cardfight Club will go on to the main VF High School Championship. Otherwise... better luck next year!

The Cardfight Club is back home from taking a premature stab at the VF High School Championship, and the Student Council is still plotting against them! This time, a wannabe club, the Paranormal Power Research Society, is pitted against the Vanguard Club with their clubroom on the line... except Aichi and company don't answer the challenge. In fact, a rooftop battle ensues between the society...

Aichi is unnerved when Kourin doesn't show up for school. Later, Naoki stumbles onto a stunning discovery in the basement of the academy, then immediately runs to Card Capital to demand a fight with Aichi. Does Aichi stand a chance against this new, improved(?) Naoki with his powerful, never-before-seen card?!

Bothered by Ishida's peculiar behavior, Kai pays Takuto a visit to ask whether Cray has anything to do with it. Takuto fills Kai in on a dire situation that has roots in the previous arc. In fact, Kai can't a-void being caught up in peril as he finds himself in a desperate Cardfight with his soul in the balance!

Kai is in the fight of his life against the possessed Takuto, with his soul lying in the balance. But when he's given a choice, will Kai stay true to himself or opt for power?

Possessed by the power of Link Joker, Kai goes to fight Tetsu, a person he deems worthy of passing it on. If Tetsu can't successfully fend off this new, mysterious deck with its confounding power to "lock" cards, he'll become infected too, and seek out other fighters...
