==Trivia==
 
* This movie is said to take place sometime after episode 3, but before the Death-T arc (starting in episode 21), as Kaiba only recalls his previous draw with Yugi. It possibly takes place before episode 08, because Miho Nosaka is learning the game and she  hadn't played yet until that episode. Also in that episode, Seto Kaiba begin to call his Game masters to defeat Dark Yugi in any game.
 
* This marks the end of the Toei anime and the last appearance of [[Miho Nosaka]].
 
* Character appearances appear closer to their manga counterparts than they did during the Toei series. Most notably, [[Seto Kaiba (manga)|Seto Kaiba]]'s general appearance is now very similar to his manga counterpart, his green hair and gold/light brown eyes being replaced with brown hair and light blue eyes; and [[Yugi Mutou (manga)|Yugi Mutou]]/[[Dark Yugi (manga)|Dark Yugi]]'s hair appears much stiffer and straighter. Also, [[Rex Raptor|Dinosaur Ryuzaki]] makes an appearance as a contestant dueling against Kaiba, but only for a brief moment while leaving the tournament due to a loss but doesn't speak.
 
* The card game is now referred to as ''Duel Monsters'' (as it is in the NAS series) and the cards' backs take on a similar appearance to their manga counterparts.
 
* Anzu has a job now despite the school laws as established in episode 2.
 
* The duel system Kaiba and Yugi use during their duel made its debut during the Duelist Kingdom story arc. The duel itself resembles the duel here in both monsters summoned and specific strategies. Blue-Eyes being summoned to destroy Gaia is identical to a turn in the duel of [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 001|1]] of the NAS series and even has the same appearance from behind Yugi as it's being destroyed. The round with the Magical Hats is the same as in the duel of Episodes [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 009|9]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 010|10]] of the NAS series.
 
* During the final turn of the duel between Yugi and Kaiba, after Yugi fuses "Meteor Dragon" with "Red Eyes Black Dragon" to form "Meteor Black Dragon" (3500/2000), Yugi somehow causes Kaiba's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon's 3-Body Connection" (4500/3000) to separate (how this happened is not explained) allowing Yugi to focus his attack on one "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" (3000/2500) which is weaker than "Meteor Black Dragon", allowing Yugi to not only destroy Kaiba's monster but cause enough Life Point damage to win him the duel. If Yugi used "Meteor Black Dragon" to attack "Blue-Eyes White Dragon's 3-Body Connection" directly, it would not have enough attack points to destroy it and instead cause Yugi to lose the duel.

Yu-Gi-Oh! (遊☆戯☆王, Yūgiō) is a film produced by Toei Animation, based on the anime series also produced by them.

Plot[edit]

A boy named Shougo Aoyama is too timid to duel, even after obtaining a powerful rare card, "Red-Eyes Black Dragon". Seto Kaiba also learns about Shougo's rare find and organizes a tournament, where attendance is mandatory for those who receive an invitation. Shougo and Yugi Mutou are later chased down and roughed up by Kaiba's henchmen from KaibaCorp, with Kaiba's henchmen overpowering both of them and stealing Yugi's Millennium Puzzle. Now Yugi must enter Kaiba's tournament and show Shougo that one can have both the potential and the power to become a true Duelist.

Manga influences[edit]

  • Character appearances appear closer to their manga counterparts than they did during the Toei series. Most notably, Seto Kaiba's general appearance is now very similar to his manga counterpart, his green hair and gold/light brown eyes being replaced with brown hair and light blue eyes; and Yugi Mutou/Dark Yugi's hair appears much stiffer and straighter.
  • The cards' backings are changed to match their manga counterparts. In the anime series, they had "MW" on the backing, which stood for Magic and Wizards, which was inconsistent with the dialogue as the characters called the game Duel Monsters.
  • The strategy to defeat the first "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" comes from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel 75 (Duelist Duel 16): "The Cards Bare Their Teeth", when Dark Yugi Dueled the Ventriloquist of the Dead, who was impersonating Seto Kaiba.
  • Yugi and Kaiba Dueling using Duel Disks and Kaiba joining three "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" together is partly based on their Duel from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel 100 (Duelist Duel 41): "Duel Disk Battle!" to Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel 105 (Duelist Duel 46): "No Mercy".

Featured Duels[edit]
