The fourth season, Legion Mate, began airing in March 2014. But the story takes a dark turn when an evil force known as "Link Joker" appears and begins to spread like a virus, possessing innocent people and turning them into twisted reflections of their normal selves. It tells the story of Aichi entering high school and forming a " Cardfight Club" with the intention of spreading the game amongst the heavily-conservative academy, despite the opposition of the Absurdly Powerful Student Council. However, there is a darker angle to the competition: the Royal Paladin, Kagero and Shadow Paladin clans have mysteriously disappeared from the world, and only the benefactor of the Vanguard Fight Circuit seems to hold the answers, which he promises to the grand winner.Ī third season, Link Joker, began airing in January 2013. In this season, Aichi and his teammates receive an invite to the prestigious "Vanguard Fight Circuit", a cross-country tournament pitting the top players of Asia against each other for the ultimate prize. It was popular enough to earn a second season, Asia Circuit, which aired from April 2012 to January 2013. The original anime aired from January 2011 to April 2012. As Aichi learns the rules of Vanguard and improves his skills, he slowly comes out of his shell and starts to make true friends, all with the goal of one day battling Kai on equal grounds and receiving his recognition. One day he meets Toshiki Kai, an experienced Vanguard player who gives him the rare card " Blaster Blade" and encourages Aichi to become a player as well.
