Kyou is back for revenge against Team Q4 - specifically Kai. Kyou then explains how things came to be this way - since he lost his match to Kai during the national tournament, he got banished from Asteroid. As a former member of Asteroid, Kyou had trouble finding a new team to join because no one wanted to recruit a discarded Asteroid member to prevent any conflicts. After multiple rejections, Kyou goes insane and swears vengeance against Team Q4. For the first match, Aichi decides to take the lead instead of letting Kai face Kyou again in hopes of earning more of Kai's acknowledgement. Under the influence of his new powers, Aichi becomes a completely different cardfighter.
