Ep. 14: Cardfight Club performs at School Festival with Kourin's surprise return

14

The student council forces the Cardfight Club to perform on the main stage during the School Festival to damage their reputation. The group adapts Shingo’s script, inspired by The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, into a Vanguard-themed play. Aichi plays Little Sage Marron, Misaki portrays CEO Amaterasu, Naoki takes the villain role as Eradicator Vowing Sword Dragon, and Kourin is cast as the hero King of Knights Alfred. Although Kourin misses rehearsal, leading the club to doubt her commitment, she ultimately arrives at the festival. After Suwabe announces an earlier performance time and Naoki accidentally destroys the set, Kourin appears in costume. She saves the production by introducing a new adversary, the legendary fighter Daigo, to the audience.
