Cardfight!! Vanguard volume 2 features story and art by Akira Itou.

After a trial-by-fire introduction to the world of Vanguard, Aichi has quickly grown to make new friends and rivals within the cardfight community. But until now, his battles have been with classmates or tense but generally friendly encounters. With a rogue gang threatening to take over Card Capital, a greater challenge awaits!

Now facing off against more aggressive opponents in VF Gloves, Aichi and crew come to feel the pain of defeat as well as the "psychic" thrill that is Riding the Vanguard!
