Important Things That Happen

  • Kanzaki instates a three day time limit for the Rider Battles to finish. At the same time, Monsters start appearing in packs.
  • Yui remembers drawing pictures of Monsters in front of the mirror so that they would protect her.
  • Apparently Shinji and Yui played together once as kids, agreeing to meet again the next day. Since it rained, Shinji didn't come, so Yui felt very forlorn. That's when her Mirror World version invites her into the mirror. However, she spends too much time in Mirror World and can't return to the real world.
  • Yui's Mirror World version gives her life to Yui so that Yui can return to this world without dying. In exchange, the Mirror World version takes the pictures of Monsters. However, the life runs out when Yui becomes adult/turns 20.
  • Yui commits suicide, causing her brother to self-destruct.
  • Ryuki and Ryuga have a showdown in the real world, with only Ryuki surviving. This is the one time Ryuki uses an attack card in this movie.

Trivia

  • In the church, Kanzaki throws everyone their card decks except Shinji, who is left to pick it up on his own.
  • Shinji says Miho has a lot of faces, but he's the one that literally has another face in terms of having a Mirror World version.
  • When Miho dies, there's a crow by her card deck and a black feather. The people passing are all wearing black.
