Â
The Asian Circuit story arc has come to a close last week, ending season 2. This week starts season 3 of the Vanguard anime series. Find out more about it here!
The new season starts off with the new title: Cardfight! Vanguard Link Joker. Â The new season comes complete with new characters, cards, and character design changes.
The character design changes however are extremely minimal Aichi and Misaki both have shorter hair and Aichi has a different uniform due to him being in highschool now. That is really the only changes that are currently seen at the moment.
The new cards that are presented in this season are two new arch types for two of the shows main clans. They are Aichi’s Gold Paladins theme of Liberators and new comer Naoki Ishida’s Kagero Eraser deck. Both of which contains card from the as of yet to be released in America Trial Decks: Liberator of Sanctuary and Eradicator of the Empire.
Â
The new season introduces Naoki Ishida, a class mate of Aichi’s who has just discovered Vanguard and has to be taught the game. Billed as the typical hot blooded character who becomes overly passionate and caught up in the moment easily when excited.
The new episode mirrors the first episode of the original series; Aichi begins to teach newcomer Naoki how to play the game. This is a reversal of roles from the premier episode’, since it was Aichi being taught the game  by Kai.

Not for quite a bit unforunately. However Bushiroad is making a very hard and aggressive push to catch America up in terms sets. So if i would have to estimate I would say some time around September or October. And thanks always for the comment.
