I can't belive Yugi accept this: by a ritual, he do disappear his best friend because of Duel Monster. If the Duel Monster hadn't never existed Atem stayed in the real world. Or, Paradox wants to kill Pegasus for Duel Monster never exist... or rather for Synchro monster never exists ? Like a certain Stardust dragon the card destined to destroy the world ? It's two questions differnts for me. And he had chosen to come back in he time before Atem recover his memory. (I think this bacause Atem bears Millenium Puzzle and the teaser in episodes shows his monsters in Battle City period) Precisely at this period. Why Paradox choose this one and not come back in the time before Zero Reverse for example ? In choose to come back at this period I think isn't a coincidence.

And Anzu. It's curious Yusei's mother ressembles at her a lot I think. She lost Atem because Yugi and the Duel Monsters. Can be bear (supporter) this ? That Yugi do disseapear Atem by Duel Monster ? I think not because she intrested by Atem. See this way, a future between Yugi and Anzu become impossible... always bacause Duel Monster.

Also, episode 224 shows a priori that all characters return at a normal life. This seems very easy according to the episode. But I think It's more complicated.

What's your opinions ? I suppose a lot of persons will not agree.

Hmm. I thought the violet part was a helm like thing on his face, rather than his hair.

So you are guessing that Paradox is Yugi, and that he wishes to destroy Duel Monsters so he can stay with Atem for a longer time?

That's interesting... but if Paradox comes from the future, he couldn't be Yugi, since he would be already dead by that point. Or really, really old. Paradox doesn't look aged. (At least by his posture.)

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about your Anzu theory, though. Are you saying that Anzu lost interest in Yugi because he sent Atem to the Afterlife and was busy with Duel Monsters? The YGO TCG site used to have a FAQ section where Takahashi was interviewed (I can't find it anymore) and I recall him saying something about the possibility of Yugi and Anzu getting together in the future, if they find each other again. (Anzu departed to New York to become a dancer.)

Yes, I tried to explain that because Duel Monster, Anzu lost her intrest toward Yugi because he do disappear Atem. And she was interested by Atem. Plus Atem than Yugi I think. But Yugi is intrested by her.

See this way, he lost his best friend and the woman he loves.

For his hair, he can keep his original hair's color. Often persons who get older keep his origin hair's color. Also, he can change his hair's color with a tincture for example.

For Takahashi's interview, I think he evocated a possibility for a couple between Yugi and Anzu. Not the fact they become a couple later. I know there bunkoban but I think also the Lovers evocates a posibility. A possibility and the author's choice are different I think.

Ah, I see.

I see what you mean, he could just dye his hair. But what if Yugi would be already dead from old age in Paradox's future, or before it?

You have a point there.

or maybe paradox is a symbol of future yugi sadness?

In that case, Paradox will be another person. Someone different.

I suppose Paradox can be Yugi in reality and I believe It's possible. I don't know why but I dfficult for me to believe Paradox is a complete unknown character. Also because the synopsis said Yusei search and find and meet Judai in his time. Strangly, there no mention of Yugi.

On the one hand, like you said, maybe he is dead. On the other hand, It's Takahashi's first hero. Can he kill his first hero ? I think not... I hope !

EDIT: Darkinfernal, do you think Paradox represents a possible alternative future for Yugi ? You think that the Paradox who came from the future wants prevents the sadness of his destiny in come back in the time ? Your idea is intresting also. It gives a good and also curious contrast.

well maybe he was planning on killing yugi before dm was an anime but he did not chose that ending because maybe he thought of a better ending but who knows. but this movie could be the fall/death of yugi and judai, I mean why else are they not in 5d's?

I think not for Judai: he is already become evil in Season 3.

yea but if this judai is from after season 4 then do you think he may die in this movie? you know as a hero, its like what harvy dent said "you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain".

No. I can't imagine one seconds Judai dies in the film. Never !

Yeah, Judai wouldn't die in the movie, that's very unlikely.

well you never know but still they better not kill judai off or I will be sad because judai is like my fav character

Why sholuld jaden die?He has the power of the supreme king and yubel.Jaden can protect himself

Jaden will be the best character in the movie!Just wait and see.
He'll just summon a new e hero monster and kick ass!

I believe the 3 of them will be amazing working together!
Each one with his own unique temper and abilities.
Yugi, Yusei and Judai will be a great team.

It appears Paradox's VA has been confirmed, it is Atsushi Tamura after all. (Look at the very bottom.)

The posters in that 2ch thread didn't seem too happy about it, either.

Thanks! I repped you, as I forgot to last night.

Why are they mad? The VA isn't all that bad to me, even if different than the average person.

These are all very interesting theories. If this were the case, it would make up for the bland and unoriginal plot line ten fold. By doing so, it would not only wrap up the story of DM entirely, but could also explain why Yugi had an interest in Judai in the GX timeline.

Anyway, this is only speculation, so bare with me, but based off of Allana's theory and also what darkinfernal said, perhaps this is an alternate universe altogether. Or in other words, a parallel universe that coexists side by side with Earth.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

Has anyone on here read Rozen Maiden by any chance? If so, that is a good example of what I am going to make a theory about. In RM, there is a "Winded World" which the main character chose to wind the dolls to bring them to life. There is also an "Unwinded World' in which the same person decided to not wind, thus negating all events that took place in the story.

Similarly, since we know alternate universes exist in the YGOverse thanks to GX (albeit they were DM worlds...) it's not impossible that one of those 12 universes not shown is the YGOverse at its opposite spectrum. Like say Yugi there, unlike the Yugi seen in GX, could not get over what he did to Atem and sought a way to bring him back, via time travel.

Anyway this is all a bit much for the simple outline of YGO, but it's kind of interesting to toss around theories.

The whole talk about different worlds could be veritably true when you consider Super Fusion's mention in the movie.

Yeah, Yubel did speak about the 12 different dimensions or something like that, which schlee attempted to fuse together with Super Fusion, tho' most of them seem to involve duel monsters being alive in some sort of way. However, if there is some sort of evil force attempting to combine the multiverse, well, then we'll just have Infinite Crisis all over again. Except with duel monsters.

Season 0 Yugi: You're ruining me! I'll kill you to death!

Season 0 Yugi: You're ruining me! I'll kill you to death!

GoldenUmi, your post learn me a lot of things. It's very interesting. Also, an alternate world is seen in GX's season 4. Maybe It's the World of the Destruction, Sin World ? You show one thing I really completly forgot: Yugi's interest toward Judai. In GX 179, he said: "I gave you a card three years ago to test wheter or not you'd become a worthy enough duelist to possess it" So, Yugi had a goal when he gaves Winged Kuriboh at Judai. It isn't an act of kindness. It's very interesting considering that Yugi is described and considered like someone of very good or nice. It's completly inabitual.

I forgot also 12 dimensions mentionned by Yubel. It's very interesting.

So, It will be possible that Paradox came from an alternative universe ? Not of the future like he thought habitually ? It reminds me Trunks in Dragon Ball Z.

Nice theories about Paradox being some super future version of Yugi, but if that's so then why he would want to destroy Yusei, Judai and himself (his young version) along with Atem, who is his closest friend. Not to mention about Pegasus.
It doesn't really make sense cuz no matter If the Duel Monster hadn't never existed Atem couldn't stay in the real world, cuz he chose to die 3000 years in past to save the world from Zork.
Pegasus just revived the Duel Monsters game through a card game, but even if he hadn't done this, Atem again wouldn't be able to stay in the real world with Yugi. Yugi's destiny was do solve the puzzle and help the Pharaoh to fulfil his mission, before returning to the Spirit World. With, or without a card game, this was ment to happen.
So Paradox just can't be some future version of Yugi, cuz then when he kills Yusei, Judai and little Yugi, he will actually erase the only memmories he has with the Pharaoh.
Why he would do such a thing?
This still for me doesn't make any sense.
No, Paradox just can't be future, evil version of Yugi. And look at the body structure of Paradox, and them imagine Yugi at the same age. I personally can't imagine older Yugi looking like this guy. It's impossible and quite rediculous.
I would accept that Paradox came from some alternative universe, but not being an evil, older version of Yugi.
------------------------------------
And I think that it's very likely Paradox to be some unknown character.
He would probably have some connection with the 3 main characters, or with Pegasus, but that will be his story which hadn't been shown in any of the series. An unknown, tragic story which we'll know when the movie come up in January 2010.

For why an answer is possible: Paradox do it for get a better life in his future. He would change his future and his life in same time. If Duel Monster doesn't exists, his life would have best.

I propose an idea. I think It's a possibility. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. I understand this idea is difficult to believe. It's normal.

Yeah, I have a feeling Darkness will be involved in this somehow as well. There's a high possibility.

Oh and Supreme King may play some significance as well. I guess we will see.

I know how absurb it sounds, but this is merely speculation and theorization, so bare with me here.

Just imagine for a second that there are two worlds parallel to each other. They never touch one another and they are exact opposites. In this world exist people who look similar to the inhabitants of Earth, however are completely opposite in personality. Suppose this "Yugi" is not even the same Yugi we know but some strange alternate version. This Yugi never received the Millennium Puzzle as these items don't exist in this world.

Let's just speculate that the power of the Millennium Items, Zork, Darkness and the Signers that has existed for a huge period of time somehow disturbed the balance. This other "Yugi" is on a mission to undo the events that have disturbed this unbalance in the universe by eliminating those responsible... including his alternate self who has helped Atem.

This is a very messy hypothesis with a number of holes, like how this "Yugi" would obtain the power to travel time and such. And how getting rid of Duel Monsters would fix this unbalance.

I am open to a number of different theories though, so take this with a grain of salt. I just think it was a very interesting thing for Allana to bring up, something I had never given much thought.

One final note: that split mask we mentioned could symbolize the "opposite spectrum" stuff mentioned above.

I will just say, try not getting too high with your theories, or else you will experience a great hype backlash.

It's not bad to have fun speculating, but i can actually read the comments "they had all this cool possibilities to play with time-travel, alternate dimensions, and we just got this?

Anime movies tend to be more of displaying cool characters doing cool stuff than to have a really deep storyline with a lot of different interpretations.

Your idea is quite interesting (congratilations for the good point), but I still prefer Paradox being an evil guy from some sort of distant future or from anoother universe, but not being an alternative version of Yugi.

Which again have to hint us that the half of the movie will be filled with the duel against Paradox, and the other half will be filled with chasing Paradox untill the 3 protagonist meet each other. In the end we'll understand why Paradox is doing all this, and probably the 3 of them will try to bring back Paradox's good side along with winning the duel with him. Nothing different than any cool YGO duel against a really evil guy. (I don't say that's bad, just is quite predictable )
So, there isn't much time left for deep story line. (The plot really should've been more creative, but still I won't judge untill I see the movie. There is possible to be something really amazing and interesting behind the poor introduction of the plot. )

Your idea is very interesting. You developpe very good the idea of alternate universe. It's an execellent way to developpe this alternate universe's idea. Really interesting.

Thank you very much. I understand this idea of Yugi's alternative version is particular. But it is very interesting. Each person gives his opinion. Wait and see January, 23, 2010 ! In waiting this day, all predictions are possible.

Come one now, let me at least pretend my YGO has some sort of explanation and depth to it.

Thanks alot. But I am probably thinking far too into it. xD

Whoa, you guys posted a lot of interesting theories since. Awesome! Just as planned.

I rewatched the Judai vs Darkness episodes yesterday, and Darkness' vision of the future does seem like a potential representation of Sin World.

GoldenUmi: Regarding the 2ch thread and the disappointment, I do not know. Knee-jerk reactions, perhaps?

You have a point. But even if the "deep storyline" is out of the question, I'd like an explanation for Paradox at least.

The Evangelion Rebuild movies are a good example of an anime movie that's deep and has a lot of interpretations. But then again, it's Evangelion, so it might not count.

^ What GoldenUmi said. XD

By the way, the official site got updated! There's a new diary entry and Paradox's VA, Atsushi Tamura, has been officially confirmed on the site as well.

Producer S mentions that the story scenario has been completed, and the photos are of the script (disclosed material). The second photo is of the script where Paradox's duel with the three protagonists start.

The photo of the script describes sound effects and Paradox, Dark Yugi (Atem), Yusei and Judai shouting "Duel!" Also, "ANUP"? "PAN UP" maybe? (Change of view)

Seems like it might be a ground duel, because the script describes "D-Disuku" (D-Disk... Duel Disk?). Remember that Yusei could take out the Duel Disk from his D-Wheel as well, so could this be in Paradox's case as well? Or could it be a "reverse Godwin duel" where Paradox is the one riding and everyone else is standing?

He also asked if anyone caught a cold, heh.

EDIT EDIT EDIT

HIGH QUALITY SCREENSHOTS from the Movie! Newswise BBS Post 428 There's also some extra information there? (So much information ffff...)

Everyone looks so splendid! The animation is totally badass. (Judai looks like "RAAAGE" when he's shouting(?) "DUEL!", lawl.) Also Paradox, you look so much better in the movie. :'3

Spoiler: Saving space <3

Thanks a lot for theses news informations Arynis !

Ah, I remember those shots where everyone has scratch lines in their eye sockets from DM... Beautiful. You can tell Yusei is not pleased that he has to stand next to Judai.

One question...
WHY is Yugi soo tall? I mean little Yugi...

Originally Posted by asim316

it just his cool hair

Hmm. I've been poking around Takasugi "Jay" Jirou's blog (Pegasus' VA), and he has an entry titled "Anime". He's writing that he's been asked to do a voice acting role again (he's a radio actor normally) but he's not allowed to disclose anything else yet. He's also somewhat surprised. (I think?) He will write more in the future when he'll be told it's OK, however.

I'm not sure of the exact translation as I used a translator. Considering that his voice acting roles were almost exclusively Pegasus and that he's not allowed to disclose anything, I really, really hope he's talking about his role as Pegasus in the movie.

THanks for the Info

Indeed very nice shots. Now we really can see how the art will be in this.
Yugi really looks a bit taller and since we see also the Pharaoh its not the Yugi after DM.

Also this art with the black lines in the eyes was on of the best of the show and I think we saw that mostly in the Battle City Finals in DM. These pure rage expression of the 3 heroes reminded me of Kaiba's when the Obelisk and Osiris' equal attacks clashed and all that light was released.

That art also makes the Pharaoh to have the biggest muscles on his hands XD.

GoldenUmi: Regarding the 2ch thread and the disappointment, I do not know. Knee-jerk reactions, perhaps?



You have a point. But even if the "deep storyline" is out of the question, I'd like an explanation for Paradox at least.

The Evangelion Rebuild movies are a good example of an anime movie that's deep and has a lot of interpretations. But then again, it's Evangelion, so it might not count.



^ What GoldenUmi said. XD

By the way, the official site got updated! There's a new diary entry and Paradox's VA, Atsushi Tamura, has been officially confirmed on the site as well.

Producer S mentions that the story scenario has been completed, and the photos are of the script (disclosed material). The second photo is of the script where Paradox's duel with the three protagonists start.

The photo of the script describes sound effects and Paradox, Dark Yugi (Atem), Yusei and Judai shouting "Duel!" Also, "ANUP"? "PAN UP" maybe? (Change of view)

Seems like it might be a ground duel, because the script describes "D-Disuku" (D-Disk... Duel Disk?). Remember that Yusei could take out the Duel Disk from his D-Wheel as well, so could this be in Paradox's case as well? Or could it be a "reverse Godwin duel" where Paradox is the one riding and everyone else is standing?

He also asked if anyone caught a cold, heh.

EDIT EDIT EDIT

HIGH QUALITY SCREENSHOTS from the Movie! Newswise BBS Post 428 There's also some extra information there? (So much information ffff...)

Everyone looks so splendid! The animation is totally badass. (Judai looks like "RAAAGE" when he's shouting(?) "DUEL!", lawl.) Also Paradox, you look so much better in the movie. :'3

Spoiler: Saving space <3

finally screenshots to the movie, thank you very much for the link

I'm curious that which rules it will base on I mean in Yugi and Judai time there is no limitation in fusion deck but in Yusei time you can have up to 15 monsters in extra deck and you know Judai has 27 heros in his fusion deck (doesn't count the manga) Or he will just say screw the rules I have Yubels!!!

well since yusei is in yugis time i guess he might have to follow the rules of the time which means extra deck is still known as the fusion deck and he might have to follow there ban list.

Someone on that JPN board made some interesting photoshoping XD.

hes going to screw the rules this time and have yubels

We don�t know. Judai have more than 15 fusions, but he has never used more than 15 in one duel. He might be changing him deck in a duel to another. Furthermore, that is limited to 15 is the extra deck, not the fusion deck. And Judai uses a fusion deck, not a extra deck.

Well, let this: Correct version of the image, made by my XD

And the dialogue they had for that one: (with my wonky translation)

Dark Yugi: "Awake, power of Orilchalcos!"
Judai: "Awake, power of Haou!"
Yusei: "Awake, power of Crimson Dragon!"

Paradox: "What! This cannot beeeeeeee~!"

Heh, Curb Stomp Battle much?

As I said, cool things always happen when I'm not infront of the computer.
WFI is really nice thing when you're at school and want to check the things out.
--------------
Now, back on the subject.
THE ART AND THE ANIMATION ARE SUPER, SPECIAL, AWSOME!!!
I really like the way the 3 main characters are drawn, and even that they actually look at the same height.
JUST FANTASTIC!
-------------
The quality of the screenshots is really high, and the only thing left for the moment is the new info to be translated.
--------------
Thanks Arynis for the fast reaction.

Arts and animations are incredible. Very high quality !

Hah so that was the main idea for these shoops.

Well the Pharaoh should have been with the red color eyes for more accuracy... and the Oreichalocs seal on his forehead to screw with ppl's minds and wonder if its a screen shot from DM or really from the movie X).

If ever in this movie these 3 activate theses powers against Paradox.
Well he is as much as dead right there XD. No cards are needed and such .

Yea it strange how Atem isnt in the middle... I guess it looks better if Yusei (being the tallest) is in the middle lol...
Judai: now how should we do this shot... it has to look absolutely perfect (looks in hand mirror) yup hair as crazy as ever
Atem: Well its obvious that since I am the original character and the most loved character I should be in the middle.
Yusei:...
Judai: It doesnt matter to me, as long as my hair is perfect , but Yusei looks like he has an idea
Yusei: I do, I think since photographically it would look weird if I, as the tallest would be at the side since you two are almost the same height.
Judai: I guess your right, plus if Yugi is in the middle it would distract the fan-girls and fanboys from my perfect hair.
Atem: Can't I just mind crush him to make things easier and quicker... you guys have to go home (that way I'll be the main focus)...
*inner Yugi*: No, other me, no mind crushing today
Atem: Awwn
Juda: Yea, plus we need to impress the fandom by not beating this guy the quickest way
Yusei: And THATS by promoting a children's card game and me standing in the middle thus promoting MY show
Atem:arghhh -_- (Atleast now I could look EXTRA angry in the shot)
Yusei: (Haha)

Holy shit, this seriously does remind me of the art/animation from the good old days of Battle City finals! Let's hope it's as good as the Overlap animation! But the art looks very good from what I can tell so far.

He will write more in the future when he'll be told it's OK, however.

I'm not sure of the exact translation as I used a translator. Considering that his voice acting roles were almost exclusively Pegasus and that he's not allowed to disclose anything, I really, really hope he's talking about his role as Pegasus in the movie.

I'm almost certain. What else could he be doing, lol.

I like how no one else is around these three. What the hell, are you telling me these guys are really the only ones other than Pegasus and Paradox to be shown in this movie?!

Wow, the animation of this movie is definitely the one from the Memory World opening. Such high quality. I always thought Hara was the one who made that style of animation. Maybe I was wrong. Little Yugi does not fit in the trio at all^^;;. He's like the ultimate kohai (junior) and Yusei is the Senpai (senior). But when Atem arrives, he's the ULTIMATE Senpai.
