Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOn the Funimation DVD, there is an Easter egg located as follows: Enter the "Extras" menu. Select "Profiles" and select Karen's profile. Press "Menu" while viewing her profile to return to the "Extras" menu. Press Enter.
What appears is a still frame of Lupin and Zenigata drinking together, with a voiceover of them drunkenly singing the Lupin III theme music.
- GoofsAt the begin of the movie you can clearly read the word "Polizia" on the cop's cars, but instead the policemen wear the carabinieri uniform.
- Quotes
Inspector Koichi Zenigata: [takes a shot of booze] This was delivered to me this morning...
[holds out a notice]
Arsene Lupin III: [reads] "Detective Zenigata: today, July 23, as of tweve o'clock noon, you are hereby dismissed as Chief Investigating Officer of the Lupin Task Force." Dismissed?
Inspector Koichi Zenigata: That's right! From this moment on, I'm not responsible for the arrest of you and your little cronies!
[bursts into tears]
Inspector Koichi Zenigata: Oh, my life is falling apart! But after chasing you for twenty years and not having a single conviction, how can I blame them?... What hurts the most, is that some cocky young hotshot is gonna come in guns blazing and do what I never could!
Arsene Lupin III: [takes a seat] I'll drink with ya, Pops. Let's toast to your newfound freedom.
Inspector Koichi Zenigata: MORON! Are you even listening to me? I'm depressed!
- Crazy creditsAn extra scene on how Lupin's gang get Clause's money is shown after the end credits.
- ConnectionsVersion of Rupan sansei: Pilot Film (1969)
Lupin, Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon at the very least are treated decently in this. They act like their usual fun loving, money loving selves. One plus side in this very generic movie, is that the Lupin gang end up being nicer to each other than they often do. Fujiko is especially nice in this one, and of course she brings that sex appeal to the table, which helps. These classic characters are the best part of this story.
Inspector Zenigata is a complete joke in this one, he gets no respect. He's been taken off the Lupin case, so he just gets drunk and depressed, and even hangs out with the Lupin gang. At one point he wears an apron and acts like the Lupin gang's butler. This is very out of character, and pretty much sacrilege, though I admit it's a bit amusing.
The movie does have an enjoyable action climax though, and a nice ending.
All in all, this is on the lower end of the Lupin spectrum. For me, it was worth sitting through for some fun moments between the Lupin gang. If you're not a Lupin completist, this one is very skippable.
