Ep. 12: Shin reveals his past with Rive and the ideological bond with Ryuzu

12

Shin recounts his history with Rive, his former Team Nippon mentor and teammate alongside Mark Whiting. After winning the national Vanguard tournament and qualifying for the world championship, Shin clashed with Ryuzu in a cardfight to restrict their meetings. Despite Shin’s victory, Rive continued seeing Ryuzu, driven by their shared belief that Vanguard could improve the world. Rive later introduced Shin to the Gear Chronicle clan, claiming it held the key to global change. This discussion represents the final memory Shin retains of Rive before their separation.
