Limited Theatrical Release of Dark Side of Dimensions in Japanese with English Subtitles

Apparently, yes, during mid to late April, Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions, the 2 hour finale to the story of the original cast, is to run in select theaters across the United States of America for a one to two day run with the original Japanese audio but with official subtitles.

According to RaveGrl, who specializes in information about the anime and manga and 4Kmedia in general, 4KMedia last week mentioned this event on FaceBook (and then subsequently deleted the post with the information).

Essentially, this is happening due to 4KMedia teaming up with film distributor ElevenArts who specializes in limited theatrical runs of foreign films, both live action and animated, with their resume showing they chiefly specialize in limited runs of Japanese anime, such as Rebuild of Evangelion or Sword Arts Online: The Movie.

The main problem is neither 4KMedia nor the distributor they teamed up with, ElevenArts, is providing a list of all valid theater showings. Eleven Arts for reasons unknown has not posted the list they said they would, while 4Kmedia apparently has not been provided the full list of information from the theaters that are supposed to be running the film for this limited event, due to theaters not getting back to them

The current list of theaters who have managed to confirm they will be running it, and the dates it will be running, are as such:
