Transforming

For Sakuya to change into Garren, he has to insert the sealed Ace of Diamonds (Category Ace: Change Stag) card and position his buckle in front of his waist. The belt would then expand automatically around his waist, like a deck of cards wrapping around. Sakuya makes an arm motion, clinches his fist and yells out and flips a portion of his buckle. The buckle would announce “Turn Up!” at this point. This would also cause a blue projection with a stag beetle image to come out before him,knocking undeads away(if there are any). All he has to do now, is to run into the projection, which will complete the transformation into Garren.
