Trivia[]
- This movie's story is slightly based on the second arc from Cardfight!! Vanguard Manga, where Ibuki is an antagonist, and uses Deletors, also his purpose is similar in this movie.
- This movie takes place after Season 4, and marks the last individual arc with Aichi and his friends before Cardfight!! Vanguard G.
- During the production of the movie, the new director instructed the staff to omit explanations of skills and the like. His reasoning for this is that most people who would see the movie already know all of the effects.
- Takuto originally was not supposed to make an appearance in the movie.
