I was getting really annoyed at hearing Sin but seeing Malefic in the subs. At least the character names are correct.

Also, I do not understand why, but the audio is only in 2.0 even though the Japanese BD was in 5.1. That was also annoying. Aside from that though, the video looked gorgeous and the music is fantastic. The plot of the movie is what you would expect from a non-canonical anime movie, but it is just that, non-canonical and meant to act as just a nice anniversary feature. It is great seeing Atem and Yugi back with all of the god mode card rules and at least Judai did not have the chance to be a whiner. Overall, it was worth supporting something in the US with the Japanese version intact and I hope it sells well enough to warrant the other series getting uncut bilingual releases. I give the movie a 6/10 as it really is only for Yu-Gi-Oh! fans.

I think it was canon for 5Ds. Paradox is mentioned/shown in the show.
