* FanNickname: Blue-Haired Mystery Villain for Aigami, the blue-haired villain, since virtually nothing is known about him. YuGiOh5Ds fans may also opt for [[VisualPun Blusei]] due to how much he resembles a blue-haired Yusei.
* ShrugOfGod: When asked about the movie's theme, Takahashi said that while he has one, it's up to the viewer to decide what it is.

** [[http://sliferthewhydidigeta.tumblr.com/post/127734965026/shinhoroko-interviewer-out-of-the-many Originally]] the movie was going to be made with or without Takahashi's input, but the producer talked him into writing it. Takahashi himself then became the executive producer and sole scriptwriter for the movie.
** According to [[NoExportForYou the Millennium Book]], a [[AllThereInTheManual supplementary material]] released the summer of 2015 that has preliminary information on the movie and various trivia on the original series, this movie was originally going to be a spin-off movie starring Seto Kaiba. ''Alone.'' Apparently, Yugi and his friends weren't even going to show up. However, it was decided that Yugi, being the star of DM, needed to be in the movie, and so he was added to the script, only for it to become too long leading to it being completely rewritten to better accommodate Yugi without being overly long. [[note]]As it is, the movie is slated to be about 2 hours long; before the rewrite, it would have been over 3 hours, instead.[[/note]]

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Debatable, but some promo descriptions on websites state 'Yami Yugi and Kaiba have a duel which bets their mutual experience...' The movie is supposed to take place after the Pharaoh has left, so this is either an early spoiler or a translation error.
** In the second Japanese trailer, they include an old DM footage featuring Atem walking towards the afterlife. This wouldn't be a problem if the movie was only a sequel to the anime, but it is first and foremost based off of the events of the manga. Thus, while Kaiba can clearly be seen as one of the observers of Yami's passing, in the manga he wasn't present at all for the event.
