Aichi and his generals finally make their move against Ibuki and co. From their conflict several mysteries will begin to unravel. What is the fate of all these characters as the story moves towards the truth?
If you have never seen Cardfight!! Vanguard before you can start from here! There's no need to have seen previous seasons, and there's a little something for everybody!
You may have noticed this thread is much earlier than usual. Well that's because Bushi finally decided to catch up with the regular broadcast time of Vanguard in Japan ever since it shifted time slots with Zoku. From this episode onwards official subs will be released at 8:30 PM CST on Fridays, 2.5 hours after initial broadcast in Japan. IF is also coming to Crunchyroll soon too for those that prefer HD rips instead of streaming on Youtube.

Reminder that CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD is an anime based off a Trading Card Game of the same name. The trading cards posted in this thread are advertised in the anime, thus it is ok to talk about the cards too because they are a part of anime discussion.
