The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is the 1994 TV movie of Lupin the 3rd. This has to do with a Dragon Figurine that has a connection to Goemon's mighty sword.While there's this Chinese Mob leader who looks more like an onion roll head who wants this Dragon Figurine for himself.The animation is very well done. And this TV movie is another good Lupin Anime. Those who like Goemon will like this one.Has some funny parts to it as well.Inclduing the parts when Lupin escape from Zennigata.I recommend 13 and older for this one. Only has one nudity scene.But still worth buying for all you Lupin fans.

Like The Fuma Consipracy (I haven't seen that one), this special centers more around Lupin's samurai partner, Goemon. A Chinese mob boss challenges Lupin III and co. to retrieve a dragon figurine from the bottom of the ocean inside the Titanic. The fact that Arsene Lupin is enough of incentive for Lupin to go get it, but without the mob boss' backing. His adversaries include Chin Chin Chou (the mob boss), the ever persistent Inspector Zenigata, and even Goemon and his long lost childhood friend. There is plenty of action and humor which you come to expect from the franchise. Now for the dubbing: Sonny Strait does a good job as Lupin, despite the fact that it's pronounced "Loo-pin" (The appropriate pronunciation, "Lu-pahn", couldn't be used because of issues with Maurice Leblanc). Christopher Sabat supplies his typical gruff "Piccolo" voice as Jigen, perhaps the closest one to resemble the TMS dubbers. Everybody else does a good job. All in all, definitely a worthwhile outing from Lupin the 3rd.
