* AssPull: Kaiba [[spoiler:summons Obelisk the Tormentor]] without any clear explanation of ''how'', just slamming his hand on the ground to summon it. Aigami lampshades this by wondering how he did that, as [[spoiler:only the Pharaoh could wield the God Cards]], but Kaiba refuses to tell him.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: Like ''Pyramid of Light'', while fans liked the movie, it's hard for non-fans to get into. Since the movie also takes place after the series' end, it assumes you've either read the manga or watched the anime already, and being set after the series in itself can be off-putting to some.

* EndingFatigue: The movie feels like it could be close to wrapping up when [[spoiler: Yugi defeats Diva. But then there's ''another'' climactic duel, this time between Yugi and Kaiba. And ''then'' we get the Millennium Ring-possessed Diva as the TrueFinalBoss.]]

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley:
** In the prequel manga, Sera's eyes look ''very'' off compared to everyone else.
** Yugi's new eye design looks a little odd in some shots, too.
** Aigami's cubic monsters are CG, making them clash with most of the other monsters. This was likely [[IntendedAudienceReaction intentional]].

* FanNickname: Blue-Haired Mystery Villain for Aigami, the blue-haired villain, since virtually nothing is known about him. ''Anime/YuGiOh5Ds'' fans also opt for [[VisualPun Blusei]] due to how much he resembles a blue-haired Yusei.

** One of the rules of Dimension Summoning that Diva explains is that the Duelist can choose the amount of ATK and DEF their monster is summoned with so long as it doesn’t exceed their original values, with the caveat that Battle Damage is equal to how many points the monster had in the position it was destroyed in. This seems to open up interesting possibilities of strategizing around these new rules by willingly summoning monsters with lower points than they normally have to avoid taking too much damage, but this rule is seemingly moot to how the movie’s Duels play out because all Dimension Summons in it leave the monster with the same original point values anyway. Even the strategies Diva himself employs don’t seem to take advantage of this new rule despite Kaiba’s surprise to playing Vijam with no attack points implying otherwise, since Vijam already has no points to begin with.
