History Trivia / YuGiOhTheDarkSideOfDimensions

* BadExportForYou: Anchor Bay's US DVD [[https://www.amazon.com/Yu-Gi-Oh-DARK-SIDE-DIMENSIONS-DVD/product-reviews/B06XYH34V4/ release]] has no scene selections, dubtitles, replacing a credits song from the Japanese version with the English-version instrumental theme, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking a confusing menu screen]]. Because of these complaints, 4K Media and Anchor Bay plan to give out [=DVDs=] with a more accurate translation for the Japanese version, correct any other mistakes on DVD and Blu-Ray, and honor requests for refunds or replacements with affected items. The song "To Believe in Something" however is still not in the new release, since it is a licensed song.

* ColbertBump: The song played in the end credits of the Japanese version, ''[[https://youtu.be/U5Nac2MLyHI To Believe in Something]]'', gained a ton of recognition from fans who saw the Japanese cut. And the song's not even Japanese.

* SelfAdaptation: This is the most involved KazukiTakahashi has been in an animated installment of the franchise he started, providing not just the character designs as usual, but also serving as executive producer, story designer, and sole scriptwriter (plus key animation for a brief scene).

* RecycledScript: The film has a few similarities to ''Anime/YuGiOhTheMoviePyramidOfLight''. A mysterious new villain (Anubis/Aigami) wielding a new Millennium Item appears (Pyramid of Light/Quantum Cube) and uses its powers to manipulate Yugi and Kaiba into a duel, which he then hijacks towards the end and is subsequently beaten by Yugi/Yami Yugi who uses Kaiba's card to aid in his victory. Both movies also feature Kaiba dueling a simulation of Atem to test out his deck, pursuing artifacts (Pyramid of Light card/Millennium Items) to help them in the final duel, and during the duel they summon powerful new variants of their trademark monsters.
