แม้ว่า 'Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions' หรือ 'ยูกิโอ' จะเป็นอนิเมะที่มีลักษณะ'เฉพาะกลุ่ม' มากกว่า Kimi no Na wa และ Koe no Katachi อาจมีแนวโน้มทำรายได้ที่น้อยกว่าทั้ง 2 เรื่อง แต่อยากให้ทุกๆคนที่เคยอ่านมังงะ/ดูอนิเมะเรื่องยูกิโอในประเทศไทย ได้มีโอกาสรู้เรื่องราวหลังจากตอนจบ อาจจะฉายทั่วประเทศ หรือฉายแบบจำกัดรอบ/เข้าโรงภาพยนตร์บางแห่ง/เฉพาะโรงภาพยนตร์เล็กๆเท่านั้น

As the story begins, KaibaCorp is doing research on the Millennium Puzzle. Suddenly, a mysterious cloaked man is seen at the underground shrine as one of Seto Kaiba's bodyguards tells him that he is behind schedule and to speed up his progress. Six months after the departure of the Pharaoh ("one year" in the dub version), Yugi Muto and his closest friends are preparing to graduate Domino High School and are talking about what they will do in the future.

Meanwhile, Seto Kaiba has commissioned an excavation to retrieve the disassembled Millennium Puzzle from the ruins of the Millennium chamber. The item had previously housed the spirit of his longtime rival, Pharaoh Atem who is an Egyptian version of Yugi, from Egyptian times whom he hopes to "return to life" in order to settle their ancient score. The excavation is interrupted by Diva, who faces Kaiba in a game of Duel Monsters and steals two pieces of the recovered Puzzle. He keeps one fragment and gives the other to his younger sister Sera, who passes it on to Yugi Muto, as he is the only one who can reassemble the Puzzle, being the modern-day alternate version of Pharaoh Atem.

Diva, under the alias "Aigami," forges a "friendship" with Yugi and the rest of his friends. He takes interest in Yugi's friend Ryo Bakura, whom he believes is responsible for the death of his father-like mentor, Shadi. Using his Quantum Cube, he transports Bakura and Joey Wheeler to another dimension. Bakura apologizes and explains that the evil spirit of the Millennium Ring had been responsible. The two are interrupted by Mani, who has become warped by the evil energies of the Millennium Ring. When Yugi, Téa Gardner, and Tristan Taylor find "Aigami", Aigami reveals himself to be Diva, and his plan to eliminate Bakura as well as Yugi. As Diva almost disintegrates the three of them into another dimension, Joey unknowingly returns to the real world, with help of Pharaoh Atem.

Meanwhile as Seto Kaiba has a computer that rebuilds the Millennium Puzzle and discovers the last two pieces are missing. He abducts Diva and approaches Yugi, so he can have the two take part in the showcasing of his updated Duel Disk virtual reality technology. He intends to duel both Diva and Yugi, while gambling their pieces of the puzzle. However, Yugi is furious with Diva over what he has done to Bakura and insists he will duel him instead, which Kaiba agrees to.

Yugi defeats Diva, resulting in Bakura's return to reality, and while dueling Kaiba, Yugi re-completes the Millennium Puzzle to demonstrate that the spirit of Atem is no longer inside it. Diva becomes corrupted by the incredible evil powers of the Millennium Ring, and duels both Yugi and Kaiba. Kaiba sacrifices himself during the Duel and makes a final plea for Yugi to call forth Atem. Yugi puts on the puzzle and continues the Duel. Towards the end, Yugi's body reaches its limits and he finds himself incapable of drawing his next card. He weakly states that he believes in the heart of the cards and begins to black out, but is suddenly engulfed in a beam of golden light. Pharaoh Atem, dressed in the Domino High School uniform, possesses Yugi's body once again, thanks to the recompletion of the Millennium Puzzle and becomes a hero again. Without speaking, Atem summons "Palladium Oracle Mahad", who kneels before him. "Mahad" then defeats Diva, whose body reverts to normal, before disappearing. Atem and Yugi separate into two bodies and Atem and the Millennium Puzzle then fade away, and Kaiba and everyone else return to reality.

The story concludes with Yugi and friends graduating. The party sees Tēa off at the airport as she goes off to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a professional dancer in New York City. Meanwhile Kaiba uses his technology in conjunction with the Quantum Cube to transport his own consciousness to the Afterlife. He challenges Pharaoh Atem, sitting on his throne, who responds with a confident smile as the film ends.
