Lupin the III: Another Page (2012) - full transcript
Lupin has become a suspect in the murder of a professor named Theo Argent. The professor had just discovered the missing page of Marco Polo's Record of Observations of the East travel ...
Genoa, Italy.
Right there! Right there!
Alright!
Yeah!
Y-you...
Let's go!
W-who's there!
What are you doing here!
Answer me!
P-professor!
You! Put your hands
up and turn around!
I'll be taking Another Page.
Ka-boom!
Thanks!
Damn it! Get him!

Here it is...
Grab him!
Who is that guy?
And what just happened?
LUPIN III - The Travels of
Marco Polo - Another Page.
So the legendary missing page
of "The Travels of Marco Polo"...
actually exists,
Associate Professor Claudio?
Y-yes.
The now-deceased Professor Argento
and I have found a lithograph
in the prison ruins of
Palazzo San Giorgio in Genoa,
where Marco Polo was
imprisoned for a time.
The so-called "Another Page"?
Yes, signed by Marco Polo himself.
Associate Professor,
what's written on the page?
An afterword, some sort
of message for his family.
But...
B-but while we were
studying it in detail
it was stolen by Lupin the Third!
Not only that, but the
prison ruins were destroyed
and Professor Argento
was m-murdered!
Impossible!
Lupin would never stoop to
murder for such a reason!
W-who are you?
I'm from the ICPO,
Inspector Zeniga-
Hey, wait a minute!
I wasn't finished!
I'm from the ICPO!
I said I'm Zenigata from the ICPO!
Bastards!
Do you treat everyone like garbage!
Crap! They don't
listen to the ICPO...
And that Lupin...
What's he up to this time?
Yes, don't worry.
Everyone thinks that Lupin the
Third has stolen Another Page.
And we now have...
Yes.
Yeah.
We also found something
rather interesting...
Yeah.
Another Page revealed that Marco
Polo has a hidden legacy...
Yes.
You catch on fast, Duke!
I will let you know
once we get results.
Yes. Goodbye.
Greedy, senile old prick.
Grandpa Theo...
Why?
Lisa?
There you are, Lisa.
I've been looking for you.
I'm sorry, Professor Claudio.
I didn't mean to worry you...
No, I'm relieved.
Ever since he passed away
you've locked
yourself in your room.
I'm glad to see you're outside now.
Thank you so much.
And I'm sorry.
Well... That is...
I wasn't able to save him.
Please don't say that.
There was no one else
that I could turn to...
But I always feel
encouraged around you.
Lisa.
Are you Lisa Argento?
Yes, I am.
I'm Zenigata from the ICPO.
You're that man from earlier...
Apologies for interrupting
the press conference.
Anyways, miss.
I have some questions
about the recent incident.
W-wait a second!
Lisa doesn't know anything!
She was home alone at that time!
Don't you know that Lupin's
the primary suspect?
Why are you bothering her?
It wasn't Lupin!
Sorry.
Lupin is not a
cold-blooded murderer
despite what everyone thinks.
What are you saying? He's a thief.
If you look at his past history...
Who the hell are you guys?
I-it's Lupin!
His gang's going after Lisa...!
No!
Anyways, leave them to me.
Get out of here!
R-right!
Hold it!
You gotta deal with me first!
H-hey! You cowards!
Lisa.
Yes?
I'll hold them off here.
You'd better run.
I can't! Not by myself...
Doesn't matter, just run!
Professor!
Run, Lisa!
But...
There's no point in
sacrificing yourself as well!
Now hurry... Run!
That's enough.
You fought well, Professor.
Er, not really...
That Lupin...
What's he up to this time?
Lisa Argento, huh?
Yeah. Theo Argento's granddaughter.
Learning archeology in the
same university as the old man.
Huh... So somebody
killed her grandfather
and now she has no family.
You're no saint either.
Shut up! Stop picking on
me and keep a lookout.
That guy should be here any minute.
Yeah, yeah.
By the way, what's that
book you've been reading?
"Il Milione."
"The Travels of Marco Polo", huh?
Isn't that the book where
Marco Polo went to Japan
and loaded up on gold coins?
It's a 13th century travelogue
that Marco Polo wrote
over a period of 24 years
when he went to the Orient.
More or less what I said.
Well, that's not all
there is to this book.
Right, there's also Another Page.
According to old man Theo's diary,
Marco Polo has some
sort of hidden legacy.
Gold coins, I bet!
I don't have any other information
but if we track that
guy's movements...
He'll lead us right to the gold.
Who is this guy anyways?
I have no idea.
Hey, hey, do you even
know what you're doing?
And what did you say
about people disappearing?
I don't know,
must have been a weapon
or maybe Marco Polo's curse.
Hmph, whatever.
I should have been
keeping a lookout.
Aw, don't be like that.
Anyways, we should meet Lisa
and hear her side of the story.
Weird.
I know what's going on here.
Oh really?
Where did you hear about
Another Page in the first place?
Uh, well... From Fujiko!
Well, she said "I'd
rather have Another..."
Page than an engagement ring"...
How did you know?
H-hey, what's wrong, Jigen?
I'm going home.
But... Wait!
I want nothing to
do with that woman.
Wait a minute, Jigen.
There's a whole pile
of gold waiting for us!
That stupid... Fine!
I'll do it myself!
All by myself!
You selfish, cold-blooded...!
That's my buddy!
I knew you'd come back...
Idiot! Look behind me!
Who are those guys!
You think I know?
It's Lupin!
Lupin's trying to kill me!
Huh...?
Lisa Argento?
And you are?
Uh, well...
I am Inspector Colonel of the ICPO
and this is my subordinate,
Detective Sanders.
Subordinate!
Then you two are
friends of Mr. Zenigata?
Uh... Yeah.
He asked us to keep you safe.
Hey, Sanders! Get to work!
Hmph, I'm on it!
Hey, hey, we're not finished
here, Sanders.
We're dealing with a tank. I'm
gonna try some custom-made rounds.
Damn it!
Damn you, Lupin the Third...
Like I said,
you need deceit to beat him.
You think you can take
the girl away from Lupin?
Of course I can.
I know all about Lupin's behavior.
Hey, are you okay?
Are you injured?
Why... Why is this happening?
He never took a bath
when I told him to...
I told him not to waste food
but he refused to eat peppers...
I kept telling him to smoke outside
but he always smoked in his room...
He was always smiling...
Just a while ago, everything
was the same as it always was...
Just a while ago,
he was still alive...
We can't change the past.
It's hard, but we have to
keep on with our lives.
I know that! But I...!
This is... Grandpa Theo's...
Yep. Have a look.
Read the last entry.
"Another Page contains a secret."
If it is ever revealed,
it would corrupt...
all mankind and wars
would break out.
Marco would not have wanted that.
"Therefore,
I must destroy Another Page!"
If only we never
found Another Page...
Read the previous entry.
"Someday."
"Someday..."
When Lisa becomes a
brilliant archaeologist...
together we will fulfill
Marco's last wish.
I will wait for that day to come.
"Lisa..."
Grandpa Theo...
He thought it would
be fun if you two...
learned about Marco
Polo together.
I bet he wanted you to
discover Marco Polo's secrets.
Me? That's impossible...
If that's what you think...
If you look at past history,
you rarely see women accomplish so
much like Cleopatra or Joan of Arc.
And I...
I see.
Professor! Can I answer this?
Yeah.
Hello, Professor?
You're okay! Yes, I'm safe as well.
Hey.
You sure it's okay?
I don't know.
But we need to cheer
her up somehow.
I guess.
You followed me?
Professor Claudio!
Wa-wa-wait! That's dangerous, Lisa!
If those thugs find you...
It's okay. The Professor
brought a friend with him.
Gah! It's pops!
What do we do?
How would I know?
Get in!
Fujiko!
Fujicakes! My guardian angel!
Um, who... It's okay, get in.
But Professor Claudio...
Don't worry, you'll meet him later!
Now...
Sorry, I'm in a bit of a rush.
Bye bye.
No way!
Looks like your fiancee
stabbed you in the back.
Shut up! Women are more interesting
when you don't know what to expect.
Although I have a few
surprises of my own.
Anyways, we've got to find
out who's behind all this...
Crap, I forgot about him!
You're under arrest, Lupin!
Whoa, that's our cue!
Come back here!
Do not kill, and do not be killed.
Profound words...
The ultimate way of...
the sword is to win
without fighting.
I, however,
am distracted by trivial things.
How immature. Hm?
When did he...?
Hm... 75 points.
Noble samurai.
Are you here on a pilgrimage?
No, I...
Pardon me,
but is something on your mind?
Or!
Are you trying to take my apple?
What?
Just a joke.
Sir, are you here to train as well?
Training...
Apples show strength
without training.
Because they do not
thirst for blood.
Bloodthirst...
Come with me.
Um...
Is this really the ICPO?
ICPO?
You still don't know?
You've been kidnapped.
What? But Fujiko...
Excellent.
You lived up to your word.
Thank you.
I have one thing to ask you.
What?
Why you need the girl.
Why do you need to know?
Just wondering.
Another Page seems to talk about
Marco Polo's hidden legacy.
Hidden legacy?
Yeah.
But in order to find it, we...
need something
besides Another Page.
Something that the girl has.
Even big shots love their treasure.
Hmph. I don't really care about it.
What?
Yes?
Well well! Bring him here.
What is it?
A guest.
We've captured Lupin the Third.
Rise and shine, Lupin.
What are you talking about?
Where am I?
Lupin, let me explain.
Fujiko Mine!
You're a part of this too?
Where's Lupin?
Is that really Lupin?
Where is he?
- Where's Lupin?
- That's strange...
Hey, you know where he is!
Where's...
Excuse me a moment...
What're you doing!
I knew it...
We have a problem!
The girl escaped!
What? Crap,
he was just a distraction.
Move!
See you, Inspector Zenigata.
W-wait, Fujiko!
Fujiko!
Well now...
I've done it again.
Um, is Fujiko a part of the ICPO?
Look around you. What do you think?
But she seems to know
you, Mr. Sanders.
She's nothing but trouble.
I'll explain everything later.
Let's go!
Long time no see, little Mr. Page.
Now, just who is this guy?
There we go...
Lombardo Heavy Industries.
Ships, airplanes...
They manufacture all
kinds of products.
What do we have here?
Bernardo Vilar.
Singlehandedly built up
Lombardo as the president.
Why is he after Another Page?
What's this?
This is...!
Let's go, Lup-Inspector Colonel.
Mr. Colonel!
Hold on! I'm copying some files!
Okay, get going! No dilly-dallying!
That's my line!
Hey, what is this place?
It looks like they're
making some sort of weapon.
Bingo.
So these guys are arms dealers.
But other companies are
saints compared to these guys.
You mean...
They sell weapons to
both allies and enemies.
"The Merchant of Death."
"The Merchant of Death"?
There we go!
A siren.
But why now?
Can't be... What do you mean?
W-wait, you don't mean...
Mean what?
Move! We're in danger!
Right!
Alright, hang on!
Get that shutter open!
Got it!
Hurry, we don't have time!
Amazing... We actually escaped!
These two...
Who is that guy?
He came here with Grandpa.
His name is Goemon.
Goemon?
And? Who is he?
He was training in the mountains
though he didn't say what for.
Training?
That's so cool!
Don't stare, you're being rude.
Now help me with dinner.
Are you kidding? Forget it...
Stop fooling around!
I'm going to challenge him.
Ami, help me.
What!
Challenge Goemon?
What are you thinking?
We need to know his strength.
Have you forgotten our duty?
But it's not like that...
He has a sword.
What if he tries to steal
what we're protecting?
Well...
If you don't want to help,
we'll go without you.
We can go either way. Right?
But you promised to
take me out for karaoke.
Fine! I'll take you out
for karaoke if we hurry up.
Really?
But it's the eldest daughter who
took over our family's duties.
What's it going to be?
Very well.
What do we do?
Hey, we need a strategy!
Pikon! I've got it!
Is that really a "gyaru" word?
Don't we have this big,
dangerous pile of logs out back?
That's right!
Bring him to the hill
behind the house.
Let's go, Ami.
'Kay!
Wait!
Well? Got anything?
I'm having a hard time reading
this. It's all scratched out.
But it's all in plain Italian.
We'll figure it out soon.
"At the end of a
long journey I found...
real treasure surpassing gold."
When east meets west,
"the two voices that herald the
beginning will open the door."
I only understood two
things from that nonsense.
"Real treasure" and
"surpassing gold"!
But you know,
it'll be tough deciphering this
and figuring out the
treasure's location.
Um...
Sorry, did we wake you?
Uh, no...
Is the ICPO looking for
the hidden legacy as well?
Hm? Uh, sure.
It's also our duty to
prevent any potential wars.
Really...
Sounds interesting, doesn't it?
We have an ancient
mystery to solve here.
Isn't it exciting?
We've unearthed an ancient
mystery to solve here.
Once we figure it out, there'll be
a timeless message waiting for us.
Isn't it exciting?
Are you okay?
Grandpa Theo said
something similar...
Really?
Um...
Can I stay with you
two a bit longer?
Well, I don't mind...
I want to know what
Grandpa Theo discovered.
Then it's decided!
But first...
we're all going for
a drive to Beijing!
Right!
Wha... Beijing!
Secretary-General,
what is the meaning of this!
You consider Lupin a suspect
and intend to prosecute him!
Why? You haven't found
any murder weapon!
We have witnesses and
circumstantial evidence...
What the hell are
you talking about!
I won't stand for these
ridiculous accusations!
Lupin! Where the hell are you!
Tabriz, Iran.
Right... The Professor...
Professor Claudio? It's Lisa.
I'm sorry.
My cell phone battery ran out.
What, now?
What? Why am I mentioned here?
"The fugitive murderer
Lupin the Third..."
and his accomplice
Daisuke Jigen...
destroyed a Lombardo
Heavy Industries...
"warehouse and are
still at large."
Hey, what a story!
He framed us... That bastard!
We're really in for it now!
I'll get him for this...
Is something wrong?
Uh, well...
Just wondering why we have
to go all the way to Beijing.
Yes, why?
You know how difficult
Marco Polo's travels were?
Yes, even the missionaries
who accompanied him ran home.
Of course an archaeology
major would know that!
While he was moving
around, do you think...
he had time to go
treasure hunting?
He had a better chance finding...
treasures when he
stayed put in China.
Yeah. Also, I have a few questions
to ask someone in Beijing.
Who?
Bao Long.
The Chinese mafia boss?
But that guy...
Yeah, it's going to be
tough getting a hold of him.
Beijing...
What is it?
This.
Grandpa Theo said he got this
from the Beijing black market.
If this can help you...
You sure?
There're holes here.
I think it's a whistle.
Grandpa Theo thought it has
some connection to Marco.
So he thought about
going to Beijing as well.
Fine... Beijing it is then.
Why'd you show me this?
Well... You rescued me,
but I was never much use...
Oh? Finally opening
up to your pals?
Pals?
What do you mean?
Thanks.
I wasn't much use after all.
Don't be silly.
We'll need that for later, okay?
It's really important.
So keep it safe, alright?
Yes.
"Come to the hill
behind the house."
Is this where I will be
trained, priest?
Why are you making that face?
Isn't this a little...
Don't worry, we'll handle this.
Cut the rope on my mark, alright?
Okay!
Go!
Watch out!
Goemon!
That idiot!
Run!
The chief priest's...
Who is this guy?
This is really bad.
Are you injured?
Thank you very much.
No... It is I who must thank you.
You risked your life to warn me.
Thank you.
No...
You're injured?
Once again...
Once again I drew my sword...
Goemon...
I see...
So you want to give up your sword.
If the true meaning
of swordsmanship...
is to give up the sword...
Everything I know is useless.
Is it right to carry
a sword anymore?
Such thoughts burden you, yet you
draw your sword to protect me...
Thank you very much.
No...
I... thank you.
Goemon...
She looks perkier than usual.
Who is that guy anyways?
Don't you know, Grandpa?
She's always worrying
about the house...
but she never thinks
about herself.
I'm just worried she's
taking on too much pressure.
Hey, are you listening?
Pfft, he's sleeping!
Sleeping in that posture...
That's so cool!
That's so "cool"?
Never mind.
(He's composing a poem
known as waka or tanka)
Through my twisted heart Will my
innermost desire Become manifest.
Soon, it blossoms into fruit.
And my hunger is no more.
She'll act on her heart's desire?
Is that what you're saying?
What about the subject?
Soon you'll blossom, little apple.
Little apple?
That was too many syllables...
Ami, I need your help.
I've got a bad
feeling about this...
Beijing, China.
Sheesh.
Just when I thought we made
it, we run into this.
That's a lively crowd.
What now? Go home?
Are you kidding?
Sometimes you've got to
come face-to-face with pops.
Inspector Zenigata,
we've spotted Lupin!
He's here! Our target's
Lupin, don't screw this up!
Hey! Pops!
Get him!
Idiots! That's exactly
what he wants you to do!
He's creating a
distraction while...
We've got him!
Hey pops... I surrender.
Ha, that was too easy!
Who's under that mask?
What the hell are you doing?
It's really you! Why?
Wouldn't you like to know!
Catch you later, pops!
No way...
Once you know where he's
headed, set up a relay.
We'll have a demonstration.
Lupin, I'm miserable.
It was pathetic,
the way we caught you...
My entire life was
dedicated to capturing you.
But I got you so easily...
Are you listening to me, Lupin!
Stop inflating your
head and listen... What!
What... What the hell's going on?
Shoot him!
I-idiots! Hold your fire!
You see? Lupin escaped!
Don't let him get away! After him!
Well, this is an unusual visit.
What do you want?
I have a few things to ask you.
But not here.
How about a little stroll?
Nice timing!
So that's his plan.
What's wrong?
Hm? It's the prison alarm system.
Keep up the good work.
Lupin!
Gotta go, pops!
You crazy sonovabitch!
I'll get you for this! Lupin!
Alright!
A casino in a place like this...
The perfect place to
humiliate a former crime boss.
You know Bao Long?
Perhaps.
Bai Long Zhu Wang tea (White
Dragon Pearl) from Fujian.
You knew what I wanted.
By chance.
I cannot believe you went out
of your way to help me escape.
I can't believe you
ended up in prison.
Do you know about
Lombardo Heavy Industries?
You may have heard that they
tried to make a deal with us.
They got you in jail?
They were looking to take
away one of my customers.
But I politely
declined their offer.
They wanted to be partners with you
even though Chinese mafia
bosses have plenty of enemies.
Exquisite! I thought I would
never drink tea this good again.
I am talking about Duke
Abel of the Talia Republic.
Duke Abel?
The Duke is a well-known
art collector.
He agreed to import
our weapons in...
exchange for Marco
Polo's hidden legacy.
Wait, isn't the Talia
Republic a neutral country?
So?
Rather than just
manipulating wars behind...
the scenes,
you want to start them as well?
You make it sound like a bad thing.
But we're merely
supplying a demand.
That's business.
In the end we will be the
world's leading arms manufacturer
and have full control
over world events.
So this is all because
of some art maniac.
Marco Polo's rolling in his grave.
Marco Polo?
Yeah, we're looking at "The
Travels of Marco Polo."
Know anything?
So the famous Lupin the Third
is a history student now.
It's just personal interest.
Legends tell of a
settlement along the...
coast,
though there's no evidence.
They say Marco Polo went,
not to the South China Sea
but rather went far east.
Far east of China?
Perhaps.
This is how the legend goes.
The Mongolian Empire
once dominated the world.
The root cause of this ambition
was to unite the world so that
there would be no more wars.
I suppose that was
Genghis Khan's ideal.
Soon after Kublai Khan succeeded
the throne, he met Marco Polo.
During his world travels,
Marco Polo was also...
grieved by the outbreak
of pointless wars.
So Kublai Khan got along
well with Marco Polo.
They both had similar ideals.
So together,
they crafted a treasure.
Treasure?
Yes. Marco then separated
the treasure into...
two parts,
keeping one part for himself
and carrying the
other to the far east.
It is said that when the
two parts are rejoined,
you will get real treasure.
Two parts... Hm? What is that?
Nothing...
Far east of China, you said?
Yes. Marco Polo then headed east
to Genghis Khan's true birthplace.
True birthplace? No way...
You can't be saying that Genghis
Khan was really General Yoshitsune!
Heh... Of course not.
Genghis Khan was a big man.
The size difference between him
and Yoshitsune is simply too great.
They probably never even met.
Well, that's how the story goes.
What does that writing say?
This? These are Dongba symbols.
Hieroglyphs used in
Tibet and Yunnan.
Hieroglyphs...
Wait... These scratches...
Maybe they're not
scratches at all...
If a foreigner were to make crude
copies of Kanji characters...
I finally got the
location of the treasure.
Hiraizumi.
Iwate, Japan.
Instead of dating me, you decide
to tail me? That's bad manners.
Are you jealous, Lupin?
Of course! There's only one thing
that keeps me going, day after day.
You mean me?
But of course!
That's enough.
I have some questions for you now.
Well, if it isn't Mr. Bao.
Hope you don't mind if my boys
have a look at your casino.
Duke Abel has some sense in him.
He won't be swayed
by scum like you.
Oh? After whetting his
appetite with a few art pieces
he became our senior advisor.
Senior advisor?
So what now, Lupin?
This guy's your business rival.
Buying time so that your friend
can point a gun at my head?
Do it.
What's taking him so long?
I'm freezing my butt off here...
It's cold... Huh?
Mr. Sanders!
Leave the driving to me.
I'm sorry! I don't have a license!
Don't worry about it.
In Hiraizumi?
So we're headed to "the
land of gold", Japan.
Very naughty,
eavesdropping on us...
I wonder how your
buddies are doing.
It's a dangerous thing to
underestimate my buddies.
Zai Jian (Goodbye)!
Whoa, it's aiming at us!
My casino...!
Using our tanks to blow up shops...
That's can't be good
for our public image.
What's the plan?
Get out of the alley and
head towards the river.
Agreed!
Activate Zeal.
They'll shoot us as soon
as we reach the bridge!
Don't worry, just keep going!
We won't make it...
Maybe, maybe not!
It'll be fun finding out which!
Speak for yourself.
Might as well put up a sign
that says, "Hey, blow us up!"
Should've read the
weight limit sign!
Hey! What the hell is that!
Crap, this is bad...
Aah! Run away!
Alright, stop the relay.
The relay...
After our demonstration,
there'll be...
plenty of customers
around the world.
Now that they've seen the
power of your weapon...
Prepare ID-03.
That bastard...
I'll get him for this.
That was a weapon?
So it seems.
If you're going to
Japan, take this boat.
Really?
I'll be getting off at Tianjin.
Their jasmine tea is superb.
Well, there's no way I'd refuse
an offer from a mafia boss.
What? Mafia boss?
Why is the ICPO
working with the mafia?
ICPO?
Uh... He might be a mafia boss
but he's cooperating with the ICPO.
Right?
But that's weird,
the police and the mafia...
Society misunderstands many things.
Sometimes what people consider
common sense is in fact a falsity.
When in doubt, trust your own eyes.
Eyes?
Your eyes do not lie
about what they have seen.
Remember that.
What was all that crap?
What's this?
Blueprints for the weapon.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Y-yes?
Go to Hiraizumi, Iwate in Japan.
We have one last job.
Apples do not crave bloodshed.
They follow the ultimate
path of the sword.
But if I face an enemy,
bloodshed will inevitable follow.
If I am aware of
that wherever I go...
Goe-Goe!
Hi-ya!
Goe-Goe...? Are you addressing me?
Yup! Grandpa says take a bath.
A bath...
He said eating, sleeping,
bathing, all that is training.
I heard this before. Everything
we do in life... is training.
Hee hee, that's right! Training...
How did he do that?
He sensed my presence...
Nah, that's nonsense.
Rumi?
What is it?
F-forgive me! Why won't it open!
Goemon?
Forgive me!
I did not know you were here!
This door won't open!
Those two...
I'm sorry.
This was Rumi and Ami's doing.
To what purpose?
Why don't you get in!
No! I cannot...
The door's stuck...
Isn't it cold over there?
I could catch a cold...
Fine! I'll get in...
Training!
That's right, it's training!
That's right. It's... training...
I'm sorry.
I'll talk to those two afterwards.
Hiromi, you and your family...
Who are you?
You've been watching my every move.
You were incredibly agile
when those logs were falling.
The callus on your hands are
from years of martial arts.
You are not ordinary people.
Is there something going on?
Hiromi, that'll do.
Grandpa!
Chief priest!
Just as I thought,
you have keen insight.
There's something
I want to show you.
Me?
Come with me.
Hey, Grandpa...
Yes?
When did you come in?
Before you did. Ow!
Sorry. Didn't mean to bother you.
No... It's okay.
With Grandpa Theo gone, and all
these things happening around us...
It just seems unreal.
I know what you mean.
What kind of person is Lupin?
Murdering people like that...
Why would he do that?
If you knew that,
would you take revenge?
I...
Get some sleep.
Yes.
Hmph, all this time she
was holding a grudge.
And our quest seems
pretty hopeless.
Won't know until we try.
Don't know about that.
But you know...
She's so cute when she's honest!
Yeah...
Hm! Did I say that out loud?
Lover boy...
This is...
The Seven Tools of Benkei.
Musashibo Benkei? That's right.
Generation after
generation it was my...
family's duty to protect
these Seven Tools.
What! Then Hiromi and the others...
To protect the Seven Tools, we've
trained them since they were young.
That explains her
agility and callus...
I feel that I had enough.
What do you mean?
The Seven Tools of Benkei...
Polearm, iron rake,
war hammer, saw...
Spear fork, push pole,
sleeve entangler...
Do you notice anything?
There's no sword.
So it is incomplete.
Incomplete...?
In our temple
it is said that Benkei
in fact had eight tools.
So if a sword is included...
Yes! The final tool used by
Benkei was the Golden Sword.
When the eighth tool is
found, peace will...
come upon this earth,
according to legend.
The Golden Sword.
Our family's most
cherished wish is to find...
this sword and protect
the Seven Tools.
But...
I wish to to break free
from this endless cycle.
Why?
The history of the Golden
Sword is a history of hardship.
My son and his wife were caught in
this cycle and died because of it.
I doubt that Musashibo Benkei
would have wanted
us to suffer so much
just for a sword.
I do not wish to see Hiromi and
the others suffer the same fate.
Goemon, I have a request.
What is it?
Will you marry Hiromi?
She should be free to
pursue her own happiness.
I just want her to find
happiness in an ordinary life.
What are you saying?
Stop being so selfish!
Hiromi!
I decided to continue
father and mother's duties.
I will find the Golden Sword!
Do you really think
that's what they'd want?
You just want to forget
about their deaths.
You have no right to
decide how I feel...
Hiromi...
I'm sorry about this, Goemon.
Forgive me. Please forget this.
I've dedicated my life to training.
I have not yet considered marriage.
But...
I will do everything in my power to
help you break free of this cycle!
It's beautiful...
Looking at this, I can believe in
a "treasure that surpasses gold."
Hm? What's wrong?
Sorry... I'm overwhelmed...
Overwhelmed...
This golden hall represents
a peaceful utopia.
A world without any wars.
The same thing Marco and
Kublai Khan hoped for.
Yes.
When I thought about how
everyone wishes for this utopia
for some reason, I started to cry.
Whoever made this had
the same dream, I guess.
Yeah. More like delusions.
It's no accident these
guys had the same dream.
You mean Hiraizumi has some
connection with Marco Polo?
Maybe his legacy's
hidden somewhere here.
One thing's for sure: We'll
find answers in Hiraizumi.
But according to
historical studies...
Hm? What is it?
He might be right.
Hey, we're done with
the golden hall?
The legacy isn't here.
What? Why?
But the golden hall
in Chusonji temple...
has been around
since Marco Polo.
They can only hide the golden hall.
Not "treasure surpassing gold."
I guess.
So what next?
No idea.
Sheesh, we should have
taken Goemon with us.
Goemon? Isn't that a samurai name?
Yeah, one of our partners.
The ICPO's a pretty diverse group!
I guess.
Goemon, huh?
Goe-Goe.
Goe-Goe?
Who're you, old man?
Are you looking for Goe-Goe?
Who's Goe-Goe?
No questions! Hya!
You old fart! What was that for!
Hwaaaa!
That stance... 20 points.
Hey, you okay?
Beardo! Are you with him?
Gah! Wait, wait! No fighting!
Hey gramps, if you have a
problem, talk to me.
If you have a problem with
the priest, talk to me.
Goemon?
Wha... Lupin!
The ICPO samurai!
ICPO?
Y-yeah! This is Detective
Goemon Ishikawa.
Why do we keep running
into each other?
I must ask,
what business do you have here?
Nothing,
just a little treasure hunt.
Treasure hunt?
Yeah, there's some gold
hidden away in Hiraizumi.
Hm? What did I say?
Secretary-General!
What are you saying!
Lupin didn't murder the Professor!
Hey, wait! Damn it!
You guys, get a move on!
Lupin's gang is in Hiraizumi!
Right, Professor?
Y-yes. That is what Lisa told me.
You heard him.
Now put all your effort
into arresting Lupin!
He got away from me in Beijing
but now we need to protect Lisa.
Please...
Leave it to me!
Amazing.
I never thought the Seven Tools
of Benkei actually existed.
Wow...
Are you sure about this?
Impermanence.
Everything fades away.
Our most cherished wishes
cannot be fulfilled.
That is what I always
believed until now.
The Golden Sword, long buried in
history, may yet see the light.
Perhaps this will come to pass.
But Marco Polo's legacy
and the Golden Sword...
Which one's in Hiraizumi?
Ah, I see now.
We were too focused on Japan.
There's one thing
we didn't consider.
Like what?
Lisa, remember what we talked
about at the golden hall?
Marco and Kublai, the people
who crafted the golden hall...
They all had the same ideals... Oh!
You mean...
They crafted the same treasure?
That's what it sounds like.
Then the legacy is in
fact the Golden Sword?
Remember the last
verse of Another Page?
"When east meets west,
the two voices that herald the
beginning will open the door."
Benkei from the east,
and Marco Polo from the west...
Did you say "Ana-Hachiman"?
"Another Page."
Oh, okay! What's that?
It's from "The Travels
of Marco Polo."
To put it simply,
it's an ancient manuscript.
Ancient manuscript...
What happened to ours?
You also have it?
It's hard to make out what it says
but it was stored along
with the Seven Tools.
Where is it now?
Hey Ami, you had it the other day.
Where did it go?
Uh, that manuscript? Well...
Stay cool!
"Cool"?
It's in a clear plastic folder...
Plastic folder...?
Oh no, it's a placemat!
Idiots!
You turned a family heirloom...
into a "face map" or whatever!
I'm screwed, aren't I?
"Screwed"?
I'm sorry!
What's wrong?
Excuse me a moment...
Is she all right?
Just give her a moment.
I'll be back in a bit.
Maybe we should...
No, it's better if a
woman talks to her.
I'll get the manuscript, too.
Thanks.
She's a good girl.
Yes, a fine woman...
No, I mean...!
Huh. So much for training...
Looks like we'll
have to talk later.
We have company?
Yep.
Alright, here they come!
They don't need help.
Looks like fun.
What the hell are you doing?
I will not draw my sword.
Lupin!
I'll handle this!
Lisa!
When they tried to grab
me, Hiromi...!
Bastards!
Wait!
Don't go, it's a trap!
But they've captured
Hiromi because of me!
Lisa!
Take this!
I don't need this!
Take it for good luck.
Where's Hiromi?
Sorry, they've got her.
What!
And Lisa?
She felt responsible,
so she went after them.
What in the world are you thinking?
You'll see.
Where are you? Lupin!
Lisa.
I need a bridge!
Hiromi, I'm so sorry... Lisa.
Professor... Professor Claudio!
I've been looking for you.
Because of me, someone was...
It's okay. You're going home now.
I'm sorry.
This wasn't supposed to happen.
Supposed...?
Anyways, let's go. Or else...
Lupin's gonna kill ya!
Right?
We meet again, Professor.
Mr. Colonel.
Lupin...
Lupin?
Your grandfather's
murderer, Lupin the Third!
Lupin...?
No, he's... You're wrong!
Right, Mr. Colonel?
Please say something...
Mr. Colonel!
My name...
is Lupin the Third.
You lied to me... all this time?
Yeah.
You murdered... Grandpa Theo?
So they say.
You monster...!
Lisa, shoot him!
Avenge your grandfather!
Oh, so I'm your next victim?
You've been keeping yourself busy.
All along you've
been a double agent
for both Lombardo and the ICPO:
L-lies!
Don't play innocent!
You're working for
Lombardo Heavy Industries.
Do you see now?
Who the real enemy is?
The real enemy?
Him!
He's the murderer!
Yeah, until tomorrow.
Don't bother me till then.
Analyze this.
What are you people
doing in our city!
Who the hell are you?
We grabbed Lisa and then you
came in acting like a hero.
Does everyone in Japan know karate?
Whatever.
You're our human shield now.
It's here!
Don't listen to that murderer!
Sheesh.
Your attitude's a dead giveaway.
Now, Mr. President-elect,
we see your true nature.
President-elect?
Do you remember Fujiko?
Your kidnapper?
At the time she was seducing
the Lombardo president
I was snooping around...
W-what the hell...
Where are the notes on Marco?
Theo Argento...
You did this?
N-no! The Professor...!
Hurry up!
No! It wasn't me!
My condolences, old man.
A diary?
W-who's there!
Here we go...
No...
You decide what to believe.
Don't believe him! He's been
lying to you all this time!
It's him!
Lupin the Third is the culprit!
What... What is the truth?
Remember what Mr. Bao said to you.
When in doubt...
trust your own eyes.
But I don't know!
Still can't decide?
Stop relying so much on others.
Decide for yourself...
Or your future will always
be closed, little lady!
I...
I think...
You're telling me the truth!
No!
You finally decided...
Correctly.
No!
What a comfortable vehicle!
Want to get on?
No need!
Aw, the prince is running
off to rescue the princess.
Like a real Japanese prince.
You're okay without Zantetsuken?
He doesn't need it.
Besides, he isn't answering us.
Stubborn as usual.
Let me go! I said let me go!
Why won't you listen!
I didn't kill him!
You're going to destroy it?
It breaks my heart,
but I must do it.
If anyone finds this,
wars would break out.
Marco Polo would not
have wanted that.
But what about his hidden legacy?
Ah...!
How do you know...
Have you been reading my diary!
Let me go!
Y-you!
You finally did it,
Mr. President-elect.
A-am I really...?
Yeah, everything's arranged.
Protect Another Page!
What are you doing!
The young lady looked
like she was in trouble.
Did I bruise something?
I left a little something
behind your collar.
A bug!
I heard everything.
Why me?
At the cemetery...
Run, Lisa!
There's no point in
sacrificing yourself as well!
You made it sound like the
Professor's death was a sacrifice.
So I dug up some information.
There's one particular
bar you seem to love.
Here's what she said:
"When he becomes prez,
he'll buy me anything!"
Wine and women are a dangerous mix.
Is she considered
attractive in your country?
No, she's pretty ordinary...
Give her back!
You like her that much?
I mean Lisa!
So you're going to shoot
me with Lupin's Walther?
We need to find him! He might be...
Don't worry.
If his own Walther can shoot him,
he'd be arrested a million times.
Sheesh!
That was cold!
Hey, there it is!
Now, time to end this.
S-stay back!
This isn't a toy you
can just wave around!
He loaded blanks just in case
you made the wrong choice.
Lupin...
What's this!
Inspector Zenigata.
Weren't you prohibited from
investigating this area? Yeah.
But I promised to capture a certain
little thief wherever he goes.
So you violate orders?
I have an apology letter,
don't worry about me.
How shrewd.
Professor!
Take the girl with you.
Hold it!
Resist and I'll kill
the girl instead.
It's a promise.
As soon as she gets in... kill him.
Ruggiero (Roger)!
What! Gah!
Inspector!
Get in!
That thing's harder than a tank.
Try one more shot.
Why?
Just do it.
Yeah, yeah.
You've got to be kidding!
Must have been the yell.
Hiromi is inside that thing?
Yeah, Lisa too.
Grandpa!
Sorry to keep you waiting!
I told them not to come...
That's how girls are.
They elimiated all our men?
Raise the container! Go!
Ruggiero.
Crap, how can you fight
with just one 25mm vulcan?
Add another one!
Hiromi!
Goe-Goe.
Please... Save our sister.
As you wish!
You'll be nothing but ashes!
An inescapable sword from the sky!
That's as far as you go.
Hand that over, that's a good boy.
What are you doing!
Stalking your prey without a
sound... Basic thief stuff.
Well done, Lupin the Third.
Don't applaud me. You used
to be some cheap salesman.
For free!
Sorry, you have the wrong guy.
I remember when you promoted
the sales of attack robots.
What a shock! Me, working for
some puny little workshop?
I wouldn't call it puny.
Have a look at the monitor.
Hi!
Fujicakes!
You're still alive!
What did you say?
It was terrible! He shoved
me into this room and said:
"You're of no use to me now."
Kick his butt, will you?
Sure thing!
Now you see what you're up against.
Now be a good boy
and land this thing.
Now!
I'm going!
Seriously...?
Goe-Goe! Go!
Don't give me that look.
You were the main villain
in our little story.
But now you'll have a
nice, long chat with pops!
Fujiko! Stick with me,
and you'll have everything...
Sorry!
I've got this...
And I've got her... And also...
I hate your guts!
Where have you taken her?
Goemon.
R-right over there...
I have come for you.
My lord Goemon...
What's with all these sparkles?
I think those are sparks...
Did you cut away too much?
He sure did.
We're losing control!
Hurry!
L-Lisa!
I'll never forgive you...
for what you did.
This is bad!
This is too much...
What?
Are you telling me to jump off?
You're terrible!
It's okay. I can manage a fall
from the height of a cedar tree.
But I can't!
You're leaving me behind!
Speed boost!
Tom Cruise! Who am I kidding.
I think he's screaming for help.
No umbrellas? No balloons?
Wanna help him out?
This is getting tiring...
Gimme a break here!
It's exactly the same
as my manuscript?
Yeah, these words were
taken from Another Page.
Then Marco Polo once
visited Hiraizumi?
Apparently.
The only difference
is the last verse,
"At journey's end,
the lord will be resurrected."
Christ's resurrection?
No, this refers to
somebody's superior...
Musashibo Benkei's
lord, Yoshitsune?
Really?
Grandpa, you didn't know?
News to me.
Hey, gramps...
The Seven Tools aren't your
only secrets, are they?
Grandpa.
Why don't you tell him?
Musashibo Benkei the 22nd, I am!
What!
What're you going to do?
His future son-in-law's
gonna be the 23rd.
Goemon Ishikawa the 13th
and Benkei the 23rd...
You care that much?
Hey! Where's the treasure!
Yeah, just a moment!
Can I borrow your pendant?
Remember what Another Page says.
"The two voices..."
"That herald the beginning."
Yep.
Now listen carefully.
Wow! It echoed!
Resonance?
It must have the same
shape as this pendant.
Master craftsmanship, huh?
So small!
I'm going home.
That's your treasure?
Stubborn jerk.
Forget about that stupid trinket!
As long as I have this,
I'll never have any enemies!
Thanks for reminding me this.
Better not do it.
Lupin the Third,
begging for his life!
Goodbye! Addio, Lupin!
I warned him.
Mr. Bao came through just in time.
Yeah, I asked him to make
some changes to the Zeal system.
Though I told him to
delete it sometime soon.
I guess he took his sweet time.
Scary.
Anyways, about the treasure...
What, there's more?
Isn't there something missing?
Missing?
A sword needs a scabbard...
Scabbard?
We have one that small?
As a matter of fact...
My pendant...
Transcending time...
and space.
That's really neat.
And then...
You can read this, right?
"Prendendo una
lezione dal passato."
"Examine the past to
learn new things."
"Onkochishin."
(An idiomatic phrase
with the same meaning)
That's what Grandpa Theo said.
"Live life to the full.
Live for the future.
History only exists so
that we know the past."
"Knowing the sorrows of
the past goes hand in hand...
with looking to the future"...
in other words.
Grandpa.
Rumi, Ami. Bring the Tools.
The Tools?
I'm ending this.
Ending what?
Don't you understand?
I'm throwing them away.
What! Are you sure?
We all have a future
to look forward to.
Our ancestors wouldn't have
wanted us to be stuck in the past.
Agreed?
Yes.
This? This is it?
All that and the punch
line is a toothpick!
But aren't those lovely words?
"Look to the past" and all that!
More after this!
Also, a nice present for you!
風に髪をとかれ kaze ni kami wo tokare.
The wind brushing through my hair
おやすみのくちづけを oyasumi no kuchizuke wo.
A goodnight kiss
愛を胸に抱いて ai wo mune ni dai te.
Bring love close to your chest
ふるえて眠れ furuete nemure.
Tremble as you sleep
いつの日に結ばれるまだ見えないあなたよ itsu no hi ni
musubareru mada minai anata yo.
One day we will be together
Though I've never seen you
この体もまごころも贈りたい昨日から明日へ
kono karada mo
magokoro mo okuritai
kinou kara ashita
he... I want to give my body and my
devotion From yesterday to tomorrow
愛を胸に抱いて ai wo mune ni dai te.
Bring love close to your chest
ふるえて眠れ furuete nemure.
Tremble as you sleep.
- More after this!
- Also, a nice present for you!
Hello?
Oh, it's Lupin. Nice work.
I knew I could count on you.
You can get rid of Zeal now.
Get rid of what?
Hey, stop joking.
A weapon that collects
solar flares...
Controllable even up
to the ozone layer...
Throw it away! What a waste!
Thanks for the gift,
I'll put it to good use!
Hey!
Oh, yeah.
As a token of thanks,
I've given your...
location to your
eternal soulmate!
Lupin! You're under arrest!
You've got to be kidding!
If you will not draw your
sword to confront your enemies
then for what will
you draw your sword?
I will draw my sword
to protect what is important.
THE END
Right there! Right there!
Alright!
Yeah!
Y-you...
Let's go!
W-who's there!
What are you doing here!
Answer me!
P-professor!
You! Put your hands
up and turn around!
I'll be taking Another Page.
Ka-boom!
Thanks!
Damn it! Get him!

Grab him!
Who is that guy?
And what just happened?
LUPIN III - The Travels of
Marco Polo - Another Page.
So the legendary missing page
of "The Travels of Marco Polo"...
actually exists,
Associate Professor Claudio?
Y-yes.
The now-deceased Professor Argento
and I have found a lithograph
in the prison ruins of
Palazzo San Giorgio in Genoa,
where Marco Polo was
imprisoned for a time.
The so-called "Another Page"?
Yes, signed by Marco Polo himself.
Associate Professor,
what's written on the page?
An afterword, some sort
of message for his family.
But...
B-but while we were
studying it in detail
it was stolen by Lupin the Third!
Not only that, but the
prison ruins were destroyed
and Professor Argento
was m-murdered!
Impossible!
Lupin would never stoop to
murder for such a reason!
W-who are you?
I'm from the ICPO,
Inspector Zeniga-
Hey, wait a minute!
I wasn't finished!
I'm from the ICPO!
I said I'm Zenigata from the ICPO!
Bastards!
Do you treat everyone like garbage!
Crap! They don't
listen to the ICPO...
And that Lupin...
What's he up to this time?
Yes, don't worry.
Everyone thinks that Lupin the
Third has stolen Another Page.
And we now have...
Yes.
Yeah.
We also found something
rather interesting...
Yeah.
Another Page revealed that Marco
Polo has a hidden legacy...
Yes.
You catch on fast, Duke!
I will let you know
once we get results.
Yes. Goodbye.
Greedy, senile old prick.
Grandpa Theo...
Why?
Lisa?
There you are, Lisa.
I've been looking for you.
I'm sorry, Professor Claudio.
I didn't mean to worry you...
No, I'm relieved.
Ever since he passed away
you've locked
yourself in your room.
I'm glad to see you're outside now.
Thank you so much.
And I'm sorry.
Well... That is...
I wasn't able to save him.
Please don't say that.
There was no one else
that I could turn to...
But I always feel
encouraged around you.
Lisa.
Are you Lisa Argento?
Yes, I am.
I'm Zenigata from the ICPO.
You're that man from earlier...
Apologies for interrupting
the press conference.
Anyways, miss.
I have some questions
about the recent incident.
W-wait a second!
Lisa doesn't know anything!
She was home alone at that time!
Don't you know that Lupin's
the primary suspect?
Why are you bothering her?
It wasn't Lupin!
Sorry.
Lupin is not a
cold-blooded murderer
despite what everyone thinks.
What are you saying? He's a thief.
If you look at his past history...
Who the hell are you guys?
I-it's Lupin!
His gang's going after Lisa...!
No!
Anyways, leave them to me.
Get out of here!
R-right!
Hold it!
You gotta deal with me first!
H-hey! You cowards!
Lisa.
Yes?
I'll hold them off here.
You'd better run.
I can't! Not by myself...
Doesn't matter, just run!
Professor!
Run, Lisa!
But...
There's no point in
sacrificing yourself as well!
Now hurry... Run!
That's enough.
You fought well, Professor.
Er, not really...
That Lupin...
What's he up to this time?
Lisa Argento, huh?
Yeah. Theo Argento's granddaughter.
Learning archeology in the
same university as the old man.
Huh... So somebody
killed her grandfather
and now she has no family.
You're no saint either.
Shut up! Stop picking on
me and keep a lookout.
That guy should be here any minute.
Yeah, yeah.
By the way, what's that
book you've been reading?
"Il Milione."
"The Travels of Marco Polo", huh?
Isn't that the book where
Marco Polo went to Japan
and loaded up on gold coins?
It's a 13th century travelogue
that Marco Polo wrote
over a period of 24 years
when he went to the Orient.
More or less what I said.
Well, that's not all
there is to this book.
Right, there's also Another Page.
According to old man Theo's diary,
Marco Polo has some
sort of hidden legacy.
Gold coins, I bet!
I don't have any other information
but if we track that
guy's movements...
He'll lead us right to the gold.
Who is this guy anyways?
I have no idea.
Hey, hey, do you even
know what you're doing?
And what did you say
about people disappearing?
I don't know,
must have been a weapon
or maybe Marco Polo's curse.
Hmph, whatever.
I should have been
keeping a lookout.
Aw, don't be like that.
Anyways, we should meet Lisa
and hear her side of the story.
Weird.
I know what's going on here.
Oh really?
Where did you hear about
Another Page in the first place?
Uh, well... From Fujiko!
Well, she said "I'd
rather have Another..."
Page than an engagement ring"...
How did you know?
H-hey, what's wrong, Jigen?
I'm going home.
But... Wait!
I want nothing to
do with that woman.
Wait a minute, Jigen.
There's a whole pile
of gold waiting for us!
That stupid... Fine!
I'll do it myself!
All by myself!
You selfish, cold-blooded...!
That's my buddy!
I knew you'd come back...
Idiot! Look behind me!
Who are those guys!
You think I know?
It's Lupin!
Lupin's trying to kill me!
Huh...?
Lisa Argento?
And you are?
Uh, well...
I am Inspector Colonel of the ICPO
and this is my subordinate,
Detective Sanders.
Subordinate!
Then you two are
friends of Mr. Zenigata?
Uh... Yeah.
He asked us to keep you safe.
Hey, Sanders! Get to work!
Hmph, I'm on it!
Hey, hey, we're not finished
here, Sanders.
We're dealing with a tank. I'm
gonna try some custom-made rounds.
Damn it!
Damn you, Lupin the Third...
Like I said,
you need deceit to beat him.
You think you can take
the girl away from Lupin?
Of course I can.
I know all about Lupin's behavior.
Hey, are you okay?
Are you injured?
Why... Why is this happening?
He never took a bath
when I told him to...
I told him not to waste food
but he refused to eat peppers...
I kept telling him to smoke outside
but he always smoked in his room...
He was always smiling...
Just a while ago, everything
was the same as it always was...
Just a while ago,
he was still alive...
We can't change the past.
It's hard, but we have to
keep on with our lives.
I know that! But I...!
This is... Grandpa Theo's...
Yep. Have a look.
Read the last entry.
"Another Page contains a secret."
If it is ever revealed,
it would corrupt...
all mankind and wars
would break out.
Marco would not have wanted that.
"Therefore,
I must destroy Another Page!"
If only we never
found Another Page...
Read the previous entry.
"Someday."
"Someday..."
When Lisa becomes a
brilliant archaeologist...
together we will fulfill
Marco's last wish.
I will wait for that day to come.
"Lisa..."
Grandpa Theo...
He thought it would
be fun if you two...
learned about Marco
Polo together.
I bet he wanted you to
discover Marco Polo's secrets.
Me? That's impossible...
If that's what you think...
If you look at past history,
you rarely see women accomplish so
much like Cleopatra or Joan of Arc.
And I...
I see.
Professor! Can I answer this?
Yeah.
Hello, Professor?
You're okay! Yes, I'm safe as well.
Hey.
You sure it's okay?
I don't know.
But we need to cheer
her up somehow.
I guess.
You followed me?
Professor Claudio!
Wa-wa-wait! That's dangerous, Lisa!
If those thugs find you...
It's okay. The Professor
brought a friend with him.
Gah! It's pops!
What do we do?
How would I know?
Get in!
Fujiko!
Fujicakes! My guardian angel!
Um, who... It's okay, get in.
But Professor Claudio...
Don't worry, you'll meet him later!
Now...
Sorry, I'm in a bit of a rush.
Bye bye.
No way!
Looks like your fiancee
stabbed you in the back.
Shut up! Women are more interesting
when you don't know what to expect.
Although I have a few
surprises of my own.
Anyways, we've got to find
out who's behind all this...
Crap, I forgot about him!
You're under arrest, Lupin!
Whoa, that's our cue!
Come back here!
Do not kill, and do not be killed.
Profound words...
The ultimate way of...
the sword is to win
without fighting.
I, however,
am distracted by trivial things.
How immature. Hm?
When did he...?
Hm... 75 points.
Noble samurai.
Are you here on a pilgrimage?
No, I...
Pardon me,
but is something on your mind?
Or!
Are you trying to take my apple?
What?
Just a joke.
Sir, are you here to train as well?
Training...
Apples show strength
without training.
Because they do not
thirst for blood.
Bloodthirst...
Come with me.
Um...
Is this really the ICPO?
ICPO?
You still don't know?
You've been kidnapped.
What? But Fujiko...
Excellent.
You lived up to your word.
Thank you.
I have one thing to ask you.
What?
Why you need the girl.
Why do you need to know?
Just wondering.
Another Page seems to talk about
Marco Polo's hidden legacy.
Hidden legacy?
Yeah.
But in order to find it, we...
need something
besides Another Page.
Something that the girl has.
Even big shots love their treasure.
Hmph. I don't really care about it.
What?
Yes?
Well well! Bring him here.
What is it?
A guest.
We've captured Lupin the Third.
Rise and shine, Lupin.
What are you talking about?
Where am I?
Lupin, let me explain.
Fujiko Mine!
You're a part of this too?
Where's Lupin?
Is that really Lupin?
Where is he?
- Where's Lupin?
- That's strange...
Hey, you know where he is!
Where's...
Excuse me a moment...
What're you doing!
I knew it...
We have a problem!
The girl escaped!
What? Crap,
he was just a distraction.
Move!
See you, Inspector Zenigata.
W-wait, Fujiko!
Fujiko!
Well now...
I've done it again.
Um, is Fujiko a part of the ICPO?
Look around you. What do you think?
But she seems to know
you, Mr. Sanders.
She's nothing but trouble.
I'll explain everything later.
Let's go!
Long time no see, little Mr. Page.
Now, just who is this guy?
There we go...
Lombardo Heavy Industries.
Ships, airplanes...
They manufacture all
kinds of products.
What do we have here?
Bernardo Vilar.
Singlehandedly built up
Lombardo as the president.
Why is he after Another Page?
What's this?
This is...!
Let's go, Lup-Inspector Colonel.
Mr. Colonel!
Hold on! I'm copying some files!
Okay, get going! No dilly-dallying!
That's my line!
Hey, what is this place?
It looks like they're
making some sort of weapon.
Bingo.
So these guys are arms dealers.
But other companies are
saints compared to these guys.
You mean...
They sell weapons to
both allies and enemies.
"The Merchant of Death."
"The Merchant of Death"?
There we go!
A siren.
But why now?
Can't be... What do you mean?
W-wait, you don't mean...
Mean what?
Move! We're in danger!
Right!
Alright, hang on!
Get that shutter open!
Got it!
Hurry, we don't have time!
Amazing... We actually escaped!
These two...
Who is that guy?
He came here with Grandpa.
His name is Goemon.
Goemon?
And? Who is he?
He was training in the mountains
though he didn't say what for.
Training?
That's so cool!
Don't stare, you're being rude.
Now help me with dinner.
Are you kidding? Forget it...
Stop fooling around!
I'm going to challenge him.
Ami, help me.
What!
Challenge Goemon?
What are you thinking?
We need to know his strength.
Have you forgotten our duty?
But it's not like that...
He has a sword.
What if he tries to steal
what we're protecting?
Well...
If you don't want to help,
we'll go without you.
We can go either way. Right?
But you promised to
take me out for karaoke.
Fine! I'll take you out
for karaoke if we hurry up.
Really?
But it's the eldest daughter who
took over our family's duties.
What's it going to be?
Very well.
What do we do?
Hey, we need a strategy!
Pikon! I've got it!
Is that really a "gyaru" word?
Don't we have this big,
dangerous pile of logs out back?
That's right!
Bring him to the hill
behind the house.
Let's go, Ami.
'Kay!
Wait!
Well? Got anything?
I'm having a hard time reading
this. It's all scratched out.
But it's all in plain Italian.
We'll figure it out soon.
"At the end of a
long journey I found...
real treasure surpassing gold."
When east meets west,
"the two voices that herald the
beginning will open the door."
I only understood two
things from that nonsense.
"Real treasure" and
"surpassing gold"!
But you know,
it'll be tough deciphering this
and figuring out the
treasure's location.
Um...
Sorry, did we wake you?
Uh, no...
Is the ICPO looking for
the hidden legacy as well?
Hm? Uh, sure.
It's also our duty to
prevent any potential wars.
Really...
Sounds interesting, doesn't it?
We have an ancient
mystery to solve here.
Isn't it exciting?
We've unearthed an ancient
mystery to solve here.
Once we figure it out, there'll be
a timeless message waiting for us.
Isn't it exciting?
Are you okay?
Grandpa Theo said
something similar...
Really?
Um...
Can I stay with you
two a bit longer?
Well, I don't mind...
I want to know what
Grandpa Theo discovered.
Then it's decided!
But first...
we're all going for
a drive to Beijing!
Right!
Wha... Beijing!
Secretary-General,
what is the meaning of this!
You consider Lupin a suspect
and intend to prosecute him!
Why? You haven't found
any murder weapon!
We have witnesses and
circumstantial evidence...
What the hell are
you talking about!
I won't stand for these
ridiculous accusations!
Lupin! Where the hell are you!
Tabriz, Iran.
Right... The Professor...
Professor Claudio? It's Lisa.
I'm sorry.
My cell phone battery ran out.
What, now?
What? Why am I mentioned here?
"The fugitive murderer
Lupin the Third..."
and his accomplice
Daisuke Jigen...
destroyed a Lombardo
Heavy Industries...
"warehouse and are
still at large."
Hey, what a story!
He framed us... That bastard!
We're really in for it now!
I'll get him for this...
Is something wrong?
Uh, well...
Just wondering why we have
to go all the way to Beijing.
Yes, why?
You know how difficult
Marco Polo's travels were?
Yes, even the missionaries
who accompanied him ran home.
Of course an archaeology
major would know that!
While he was moving
around, do you think...
he had time to go
treasure hunting?
He had a better chance finding...
treasures when he
stayed put in China.
Yeah. Also, I have a few questions
to ask someone in Beijing.
Who?
Bao Long.
The Chinese mafia boss?
But that guy...
Yeah, it's going to be
tough getting a hold of him.
Beijing...
What is it?
This.
Grandpa Theo said he got this
from the Beijing black market.
If this can help you...
You sure?
There're holes here.
I think it's a whistle.
Grandpa Theo thought it has
some connection to Marco.
So he thought about
going to Beijing as well.
Fine... Beijing it is then.
Why'd you show me this?
Well... You rescued me,
but I was never much use...
Oh? Finally opening
up to your pals?
Pals?
What do you mean?
Thanks.
I wasn't much use after all.
Don't be silly.
We'll need that for later, okay?
It's really important.
So keep it safe, alright?
Yes.
"Come to the hill
behind the house."
Is this where I will be
trained, priest?
Why are you making that face?
Isn't this a little...
Don't worry, we'll handle this.
Cut the rope on my mark, alright?
Okay!
Go!
Watch out!
Goemon!
That idiot!
Run!
The chief priest's...
Who is this guy?
This is really bad.
Are you injured?
Thank you very much.
No... It is I who must thank you.
You risked your life to warn me.
Thank you.
No...
You're injured?
Once again...
Once again I drew my sword...
Goemon...
I see...
So you want to give up your sword.
If the true meaning
of swordsmanship...
is to give up the sword...
Everything I know is useless.
Is it right to carry
a sword anymore?
Such thoughts burden you, yet you
draw your sword to protect me...
Thank you very much.
No...
I... thank you.
Goemon...
She looks perkier than usual.
Who is that guy anyways?
Don't you know, Grandpa?
She's always worrying
about the house...
but she never thinks
about herself.
I'm just worried she's
taking on too much pressure.
Hey, are you listening?
Pfft, he's sleeping!
Sleeping in that posture...
That's so cool!
That's so "cool"?
Never mind.
(He's composing a poem
known as waka or tanka)
Through my twisted heart Will my
innermost desire Become manifest.
Soon, it blossoms into fruit.
And my hunger is no more.
She'll act on her heart's desire?
Is that what you're saying?
What about the subject?
Soon you'll blossom, little apple.
Little apple?
That was too many syllables...
Ami, I need your help.
I've got a bad
feeling about this...
Beijing, China.
Sheesh.
Just when I thought we made
it, we run into this.
That's a lively crowd.
What now? Go home?
Are you kidding?
Sometimes you've got to
come face-to-face with pops.
Inspector Zenigata,
we've spotted Lupin!
He's here! Our target's
Lupin, don't screw this up!
Hey! Pops!
Get him!
Idiots! That's exactly
what he wants you to do!
He's creating a
distraction while...
We've got him!
Hey pops... I surrender.
Ha, that was too easy!
Who's under that mask?
What the hell are you doing?
It's really you! Why?
Wouldn't you like to know!
Catch you later, pops!
No way...
Once you know where he's
headed, set up a relay.
We'll have a demonstration.
Lupin, I'm miserable.
It was pathetic,
the way we caught you...
My entire life was
dedicated to capturing you.
But I got you so easily...
Are you listening to me, Lupin!
Stop inflating your
head and listen... What!
What... What the hell's going on?
Shoot him!
I-idiots! Hold your fire!
You see? Lupin escaped!
Don't let him get away! After him!
Well, this is an unusual visit.
What do you want?
I have a few things to ask you.
But not here.
How about a little stroll?
Nice timing!
So that's his plan.
What's wrong?
Hm? It's the prison alarm system.
Keep up the good work.
Lupin!
Gotta go, pops!
You crazy sonovabitch!
I'll get you for this! Lupin!
Alright!
A casino in a place like this...
The perfect place to
humiliate a former crime boss.
You know Bao Long?
Perhaps.
Bai Long Zhu Wang tea (White
Dragon Pearl) from Fujian.
You knew what I wanted.
By chance.
I cannot believe you went out
of your way to help me escape.
I can't believe you
ended up in prison.
Do you know about
Lombardo Heavy Industries?
You may have heard that they
tried to make a deal with us.
They got you in jail?
They were looking to take
away one of my customers.
But I politely
declined their offer.
They wanted to be partners with you
even though Chinese mafia
bosses have plenty of enemies.
Exquisite! I thought I would
never drink tea this good again.
I am talking about Duke
Abel of the Talia Republic.
Duke Abel?
The Duke is a well-known
art collector.
He agreed to import
our weapons in...
exchange for Marco
Polo's hidden legacy.
Wait, isn't the Talia
Republic a neutral country?
So?
Rather than just
manipulating wars behind...
the scenes,
you want to start them as well?
You make it sound like a bad thing.
But we're merely
supplying a demand.
That's business.
In the end we will be the
world's leading arms manufacturer
and have full control
over world events.
So this is all because
of some art maniac.
Marco Polo's rolling in his grave.
Marco Polo?
Yeah, we're looking at "The
Travels of Marco Polo."
Know anything?
So the famous Lupin the Third
is a history student now.
It's just personal interest.
Legends tell of a
settlement along the...
coast,
though there's no evidence.
They say Marco Polo went,
not to the South China Sea
but rather went far east.
Far east of China?
Perhaps.
This is how the legend goes.
The Mongolian Empire
once dominated the world.
The root cause of this ambition
was to unite the world so that
there would be no more wars.
I suppose that was
Genghis Khan's ideal.
Soon after Kublai Khan succeeded
the throne, he met Marco Polo.
During his world travels,
Marco Polo was also...
grieved by the outbreak
of pointless wars.
So Kublai Khan got along
well with Marco Polo.
They both had similar ideals.
So together,
they crafted a treasure.
Treasure?
Yes. Marco then separated
the treasure into...
two parts,
keeping one part for himself
and carrying the
other to the far east.
It is said that when the
two parts are rejoined,
you will get real treasure.
Two parts... Hm? What is that?
Nothing...
Far east of China, you said?
Yes. Marco Polo then headed east
to Genghis Khan's true birthplace.
True birthplace? No way...
You can't be saying that Genghis
Khan was really General Yoshitsune!
Heh... Of course not.
Genghis Khan was a big man.
The size difference between him
and Yoshitsune is simply too great.
They probably never even met.
Well, that's how the story goes.
What does that writing say?
This? These are Dongba symbols.
Hieroglyphs used in
Tibet and Yunnan.
Hieroglyphs...
Wait... These scratches...
Maybe they're not
scratches at all...
If a foreigner were to make crude
copies of Kanji characters...
I finally got the
location of the treasure.
Hiraizumi.
Iwate, Japan.
Instead of dating me, you decide
to tail me? That's bad manners.
Are you jealous, Lupin?
Of course! There's only one thing
that keeps me going, day after day.
You mean me?
But of course!
That's enough.
I have some questions for you now.
Well, if it isn't Mr. Bao.
Hope you don't mind if my boys
have a look at your casino.
Duke Abel has some sense in him.
He won't be swayed
by scum like you.
Oh? After whetting his
appetite with a few art pieces
he became our senior advisor.
Senior advisor?
So what now, Lupin?
This guy's your business rival.
Buying time so that your friend
can point a gun at my head?
Do it.
What's taking him so long?
I'm freezing my butt off here...
It's cold... Huh?
Mr. Sanders!
Leave the driving to me.
I'm sorry! I don't have a license!
Don't worry about it.
In Hiraizumi?
So we're headed to "the
land of gold", Japan.
Very naughty,
eavesdropping on us...
I wonder how your
buddies are doing.
It's a dangerous thing to
underestimate my buddies.
Zai Jian (Goodbye)!
Whoa, it's aiming at us!
My casino...!
Using our tanks to blow up shops...
That's can't be good
for our public image.
What's the plan?
Get out of the alley and
head towards the river.
Agreed!
Activate Zeal.
They'll shoot us as soon
as we reach the bridge!
Don't worry, just keep going!
We won't make it...
Maybe, maybe not!
It'll be fun finding out which!
Speak for yourself.
Might as well put up a sign
that says, "Hey, blow us up!"
Should've read the
weight limit sign!
Hey! What the hell is that!
Crap, this is bad...
Aah! Run away!
Alright, stop the relay.
The relay...
After our demonstration,
there'll be...
plenty of customers
around the world.
Now that they've seen the
power of your weapon...
Prepare ID-03.
That bastard...
I'll get him for this.
That was a weapon?
So it seems.
If you're going to
Japan, take this boat.
Really?
I'll be getting off at Tianjin.
Their jasmine tea is superb.
Well, there's no way I'd refuse
an offer from a mafia boss.
What? Mafia boss?
Why is the ICPO
working with the mafia?
ICPO?
Uh... He might be a mafia boss
but he's cooperating with the ICPO.
Right?
But that's weird,
the police and the mafia...
Society misunderstands many things.
Sometimes what people consider
common sense is in fact a falsity.
When in doubt, trust your own eyes.
Eyes?
Your eyes do not lie
about what they have seen.
Remember that.
What was all that crap?
What's this?
Blueprints for the weapon.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Y-yes?
Go to Hiraizumi, Iwate in Japan.
We have one last job.
Apples do not crave bloodshed.
They follow the ultimate
path of the sword.
But if I face an enemy,
bloodshed will inevitable follow.
If I am aware of
that wherever I go...
Goe-Goe!
Hi-ya!
Goe-Goe...? Are you addressing me?
Yup! Grandpa says take a bath.
A bath...
He said eating, sleeping,
bathing, all that is training.
I heard this before. Everything
we do in life... is training.
Hee hee, that's right! Training...
How did he do that?
He sensed my presence...
Nah, that's nonsense.
Rumi?
What is it?
F-forgive me! Why won't it open!
Goemon?
Forgive me!
I did not know you were here!
This door won't open!
Those two...
I'm sorry.
This was Rumi and Ami's doing.
To what purpose?
Why don't you get in!
No! I cannot...
The door's stuck...
Isn't it cold over there?
I could catch a cold...
Fine! I'll get in...
Training!
That's right, it's training!
That's right. It's... training...
I'm sorry.
I'll talk to those two afterwards.
Hiromi, you and your family...
Who are you?
You've been watching my every move.
You were incredibly agile
when those logs were falling.
The callus on your hands are
from years of martial arts.
You are not ordinary people.
Is there something going on?
Hiromi, that'll do.
Grandpa!
Chief priest!
Just as I thought,
you have keen insight.
There's something
I want to show you.
Me?
Come with me.
Hey, Grandpa...
Yes?
When did you come in?
Before you did. Ow!
Sorry. Didn't mean to bother you.
No... It's okay.
With Grandpa Theo gone, and all
these things happening around us...
It just seems unreal.
I know what you mean.
What kind of person is Lupin?
Murdering people like that...
Why would he do that?
If you knew that,
would you take revenge?
I...
Get some sleep.
Yes.
Hmph, all this time she
was holding a grudge.
And our quest seems
pretty hopeless.
Won't know until we try.
Don't know about that.
But you know...
She's so cute when she's honest!
Yeah...
Hm! Did I say that out loud?
Lover boy...
This is...
The Seven Tools of Benkei.
Musashibo Benkei? That's right.
Generation after
generation it was my...
family's duty to protect
these Seven Tools.
What! Then Hiromi and the others...
To protect the Seven Tools, we've
trained them since they were young.
That explains her
agility and callus...
I feel that I had enough.
What do you mean?
The Seven Tools of Benkei...
Polearm, iron rake,
war hammer, saw...
Spear fork, push pole,
sleeve entangler...
Do you notice anything?
There's no sword.
So it is incomplete.
Incomplete...?
In our temple
it is said that Benkei
in fact had eight tools.
So if a sword is included...
Yes! The final tool used by
Benkei was the Golden Sword.
When the eighth tool is
found, peace will...
come upon this earth,
according to legend.
The Golden Sword.
Our family's most
cherished wish is to find...
this sword and protect
the Seven Tools.
But...
I wish to to break free
from this endless cycle.
Why?
The history of the Golden
Sword is a history of hardship.
My son and his wife were caught in
this cycle and died because of it.
I doubt that Musashibo Benkei
would have wanted
us to suffer so much
just for a sword.
I do not wish to see Hiromi and
the others suffer the same fate.
Goemon, I have a request.
What is it?
Will you marry Hiromi?
She should be free to
pursue her own happiness.
I just want her to find
happiness in an ordinary life.
What are you saying?
Stop being so selfish!
Hiromi!
I decided to continue
father and mother's duties.
I will find the Golden Sword!
Do you really think
that's what they'd want?
You just want to forget
about their deaths.
You have no right to
decide how I feel...
Hiromi...
I'm sorry about this, Goemon.
Forgive me. Please forget this.
I've dedicated my life to training.
I have not yet considered marriage.
But...
I will do everything in my power to
help you break free of this cycle!
It's beautiful...
Looking at this, I can believe in
a "treasure that surpasses gold."
Hm? What's wrong?
Sorry... I'm overwhelmed...
Overwhelmed...
This golden hall represents
a peaceful utopia.
A world without any wars.
The same thing Marco and
Kublai Khan hoped for.
Yes.
When I thought about how
everyone wishes for this utopia
for some reason, I started to cry.
Whoever made this had
the same dream, I guess.
Yeah. More like delusions.
It's no accident these
guys had the same dream.
You mean Hiraizumi has some
connection with Marco Polo?
Maybe his legacy's
hidden somewhere here.
One thing's for sure: We'll
find answers in Hiraizumi.
But according to
historical studies...
Hm? What is it?
He might be right.
Hey, we're done with
the golden hall?
The legacy isn't here.
What? Why?
But the golden hall
in Chusonji temple...
has been around
since Marco Polo.
They can only hide the golden hall.
Not "treasure surpassing gold."
I guess.
So what next?
No idea.
Sheesh, we should have
taken Goemon with us.
Goemon? Isn't that a samurai name?
Yeah, one of our partners.
The ICPO's a pretty diverse group!
I guess.
Goemon, huh?
Goe-Goe.
Goe-Goe?
Who're you, old man?
Are you looking for Goe-Goe?
Who's Goe-Goe?
No questions! Hya!
You old fart! What was that for!
Hwaaaa!
That stance... 20 points.
Hey, you okay?
Beardo! Are you with him?
Gah! Wait, wait! No fighting!
Hey gramps, if you have a
problem, talk to me.
If you have a problem with
the priest, talk to me.
Goemon?
Wha... Lupin!
The ICPO samurai!
ICPO?
Y-yeah! This is Detective
Goemon Ishikawa.
Why do we keep running
into each other?
I must ask,
what business do you have here?
Nothing,
just a little treasure hunt.
Treasure hunt?
Yeah, there's some gold
hidden away in Hiraizumi.
Hm? What did I say?
Secretary-General!
What are you saying!
Lupin didn't murder the Professor!
Hey, wait! Damn it!
You guys, get a move on!
Lupin's gang is in Hiraizumi!
Right, Professor?
Y-yes. That is what Lisa told me.
You heard him.
Now put all your effort
into arresting Lupin!
He got away from me in Beijing
but now we need to protect Lisa.
Please...
Leave it to me!
Amazing.
I never thought the Seven Tools
of Benkei actually existed.
Wow...
Are you sure about this?
Impermanence.
Everything fades away.
Our most cherished wishes
cannot be fulfilled.
That is what I always
believed until now.
The Golden Sword, long buried in
history, may yet see the light.
Perhaps this will come to pass.
But Marco Polo's legacy
and the Golden Sword...
Which one's in Hiraizumi?
Ah, I see now.
We were too focused on Japan.
There's one thing
we didn't consider.
Like what?
Lisa, remember what we talked
about at the golden hall?
Marco and Kublai, the people
who crafted the golden hall...
They all had the same ideals... Oh!
You mean...
They crafted the same treasure?
That's what it sounds like.
Then the legacy is in
fact the Golden Sword?
Remember the last
verse of Another Page?
"When east meets west,
the two voices that herald the
beginning will open the door."
Benkei from the east,
and Marco Polo from the west...
Did you say "Ana-Hachiman"?
"Another Page."
Oh, okay! What's that?
It's from "The Travels
of Marco Polo."
To put it simply,
it's an ancient manuscript.
Ancient manuscript...
What happened to ours?
You also have it?
It's hard to make out what it says
but it was stored along
with the Seven Tools.
Where is it now?
Hey Ami, you had it the other day.
Where did it go?
Uh, that manuscript? Well...
Stay cool!
"Cool"?
It's in a clear plastic folder...
Plastic folder...?
Oh no, it's a placemat!
Idiots!
You turned a family heirloom...
into a "face map" or whatever!
I'm screwed, aren't I?
"Screwed"?
I'm sorry!
What's wrong?
Excuse me a moment...
Is she all right?
Just give her a moment.
I'll be back in a bit.
Maybe we should...
No, it's better if a
woman talks to her.
I'll get the manuscript, too.
Thanks.
She's a good girl.
Yes, a fine woman...
No, I mean...!
Huh. So much for training...
Looks like we'll
have to talk later.
We have company?
Yep.
Alright, here they come!
They don't need help.
Looks like fun.
What the hell are you doing?
I will not draw my sword.
Lupin!
I'll handle this!
Lisa!
When they tried to grab
me, Hiromi...!
Bastards!
Wait!
Don't go, it's a trap!
But they've captured
Hiromi because of me!
Lisa!
Take this!
I don't need this!
Take it for good luck.
Where's Hiromi?
Sorry, they've got her.
What!
And Lisa?
She felt responsible,
so she went after them.
What in the world are you thinking?
You'll see.
Where are you? Lupin!
Lisa.
I need a bridge!
Hiromi, I'm so sorry... Lisa.
Professor... Professor Claudio!
I've been looking for you.
Because of me, someone was...
It's okay. You're going home now.
I'm sorry.
This wasn't supposed to happen.
Supposed...?
Anyways, let's go. Or else...
Lupin's gonna kill ya!
Right?
We meet again, Professor.
Mr. Colonel.
Lupin...
Lupin?
Your grandfather's
murderer, Lupin the Third!
Lupin...?
No, he's... You're wrong!
Right, Mr. Colonel?
Please say something...
Mr. Colonel!
My name...
is Lupin the Third.
You lied to me... all this time?
Yeah.
You murdered... Grandpa Theo?
So they say.
You monster...!
Lisa, shoot him!
Avenge your grandfather!
Oh, so I'm your next victim?
You've been keeping yourself busy.
All along you've
been a double agent
for both Lombardo and the ICPO:
L-lies!
Don't play innocent!
You're working for
Lombardo Heavy Industries.
Do you see now?
Who the real enemy is?
The real enemy?
Him!
He's the murderer!
Yeah, until tomorrow.
Don't bother me till then.
Analyze this.
What are you people
doing in our city!
Who the hell are you?
We grabbed Lisa and then you
came in acting like a hero.
Does everyone in Japan know karate?
Whatever.
You're our human shield now.
It's here!
Don't listen to that murderer!
Sheesh.
Your attitude's a dead giveaway.
Now, Mr. President-elect,
we see your true nature.
President-elect?
Do you remember Fujiko?
Your kidnapper?
At the time she was seducing
the Lombardo president
I was snooping around...
W-what the hell...
Where are the notes on Marco?
Theo Argento...
You did this?
N-no! The Professor...!
Hurry up!
No! It wasn't me!
My condolences, old man.
A diary?
W-who's there!
Here we go...
No...
You decide what to believe.
Don't believe him! He's been
lying to you all this time!
It's him!
Lupin the Third is the culprit!
What... What is the truth?
Remember what Mr. Bao said to you.
When in doubt...
trust your own eyes.
But I don't know!
Still can't decide?
Stop relying so much on others.
Decide for yourself...
Or your future will always
be closed, little lady!
I...
I think...
You're telling me the truth!
No!
You finally decided...
Correctly.
No!
What a comfortable vehicle!
Want to get on?
No need!
Aw, the prince is running
off to rescue the princess.
Like a real Japanese prince.
You're okay without Zantetsuken?
He doesn't need it.
Besides, he isn't answering us.
Stubborn as usual.
Let me go! I said let me go!
Why won't you listen!
I didn't kill him!
You're going to destroy it?
It breaks my heart,
but I must do it.
If anyone finds this,
wars would break out.
Marco Polo would not
have wanted that.
But what about his hidden legacy?
Ah...!
How do you know...
Have you been reading my diary!
Let me go!
Y-you!
You finally did it,
Mr. President-elect.
A-am I really...?
Yeah, everything's arranged.
Protect Another Page!
What are you doing!
The young lady looked
like she was in trouble.
Did I bruise something?
I left a little something
behind your collar.
A bug!
I heard everything.
Why me?
At the cemetery...
Run, Lisa!
There's no point in
sacrificing yourself as well!
You made it sound like the
Professor's death was a sacrifice.
So I dug up some information.
There's one particular
bar you seem to love.
Here's what she said:
"When he becomes prez,
he'll buy me anything!"
Wine and women are a dangerous mix.
Is she considered
attractive in your country?
No, she's pretty ordinary...
Give her back!
You like her that much?
I mean Lisa!
So you're going to shoot
me with Lupin's Walther?
We need to find him! He might be...
Don't worry.
If his own Walther can shoot him,
he'd be arrested a million times.
Sheesh!
That was cold!
Hey, there it is!
Now, time to end this.
S-stay back!
This isn't a toy you
can just wave around!
He loaded blanks just in case
you made the wrong choice.
Lupin...
What's this!
Inspector Zenigata.
Weren't you prohibited from
investigating this area? Yeah.
But I promised to capture a certain
little thief wherever he goes.
So you violate orders?
I have an apology letter,
don't worry about me.
How shrewd.
Professor!
Take the girl with you.
Hold it!
Resist and I'll kill
the girl instead.
It's a promise.
As soon as she gets in... kill him.
Ruggiero (Roger)!
What! Gah!
Inspector!
Get in!
That thing's harder than a tank.
Try one more shot.
Why?
Just do it.
Yeah, yeah.
You've got to be kidding!
Must have been the yell.
Hiromi is inside that thing?
Yeah, Lisa too.
Grandpa!
Sorry to keep you waiting!
I told them not to come...
That's how girls are.
They elimiated all our men?
Raise the container! Go!
Ruggiero.
Crap, how can you fight
with just one 25mm vulcan?
Add another one!
Hiromi!
Goe-Goe.
Please... Save our sister.
As you wish!
You'll be nothing but ashes!
An inescapable sword from the sky!
That's as far as you go.
Hand that over, that's a good boy.
What are you doing!
Stalking your prey without a
sound... Basic thief stuff.
Well done, Lupin the Third.
Don't applaud me. You used
to be some cheap salesman.
For free!
Sorry, you have the wrong guy.
I remember when you promoted
the sales of attack robots.
What a shock! Me, working for
some puny little workshop?
I wouldn't call it puny.
Have a look at the monitor.
Hi!
Fujicakes!
You're still alive!
What did you say?
It was terrible! He shoved
me into this room and said:
"You're of no use to me now."
Kick his butt, will you?
Sure thing!
Now you see what you're up against.
Now be a good boy
and land this thing.
Now!
I'm going!
Seriously...?
Goe-Goe! Go!
Don't give me that look.
You were the main villain
in our little story.
But now you'll have a
nice, long chat with pops!
Fujiko! Stick with me,
and you'll have everything...
Sorry!
I've got this...
And I've got her... And also...
I hate your guts!
Where have you taken her?
Goemon.
R-right over there...
I have come for you.
My lord Goemon...
What's with all these sparkles?
I think those are sparks...
Did you cut away too much?
He sure did.
We're losing control!
Hurry!
L-Lisa!
I'll never forgive you...
for what you did.
This is bad!
This is too much...
What?
Are you telling me to jump off?
You're terrible!
It's okay. I can manage a fall
from the height of a cedar tree.
But I can't!
You're leaving me behind!
Speed boost!
Tom Cruise! Who am I kidding.
I think he's screaming for help.
No umbrellas? No balloons?
Wanna help him out?
This is getting tiring...
Gimme a break here!
It's exactly the same
as my manuscript?
Yeah, these words were
taken from Another Page.
Then Marco Polo once
visited Hiraizumi?
Apparently.
The only difference
is the last verse,
"At journey's end,
the lord will be resurrected."
Christ's resurrection?
No, this refers to
somebody's superior...
Musashibo Benkei's
lord, Yoshitsune?
Really?
Grandpa, you didn't know?
News to me.
Hey, gramps...
The Seven Tools aren't your
only secrets, are they?
Grandpa.
Why don't you tell him?
Musashibo Benkei the 22nd, I am!
What!
What're you going to do?
His future son-in-law's
gonna be the 23rd.
Goemon Ishikawa the 13th
and Benkei the 23rd...
You care that much?
Hey! Where's the treasure!
Yeah, just a moment!
Can I borrow your pendant?
Remember what Another Page says.
"The two voices..."
"That herald the beginning."
Yep.
Now listen carefully.
Wow! It echoed!
Resonance?
It must have the same
shape as this pendant.
Master craftsmanship, huh?
So small!
I'm going home.
That's your treasure?
Stubborn jerk.
Forget about that stupid trinket!
As long as I have this,
I'll never have any enemies!
Thanks for reminding me this.
Better not do it.
Lupin the Third,
begging for his life!
Goodbye! Addio, Lupin!
I warned him.
Mr. Bao came through just in time.
Yeah, I asked him to make
some changes to the Zeal system.
Though I told him to
delete it sometime soon.
I guess he took his sweet time.
Scary.
Anyways, about the treasure...
What, there's more?
Isn't there something missing?
Missing?
A sword needs a scabbard...
Scabbard?
We have one that small?
As a matter of fact...
My pendant...
Transcending time...
and space.
That's really neat.
And then...
You can read this, right?
"Prendendo una
lezione dal passato."
"Examine the past to
learn new things."
"Onkochishin."
(An idiomatic phrase
with the same meaning)
That's what Grandpa Theo said.
"Live life to the full.
Live for the future.
History only exists so
that we know the past."
"Knowing the sorrows of
the past goes hand in hand...
with looking to the future"...
in other words.
Grandpa.
Rumi, Ami. Bring the Tools.
The Tools?
I'm ending this.
Ending what?
Don't you understand?
I'm throwing them away.
What! Are you sure?
We all have a future
to look forward to.
Our ancestors wouldn't have
wanted us to be stuck in the past.
Agreed?
Yes.
This? This is it?
All that and the punch
line is a toothpick!
But aren't those lovely words?
"Look to the past" and all that!
More after this!
Also, a nice present for you!
風に髪をとかれ kaze ni kami wo tokare.
The wind brushing through my hair
おやすみのくちづけを oyasumi no kuchizuke wo.
A goodnight kiss
愛を胸に抱いて ai wo mune ni dai te.
Bring love close to your chest
ふるえて眠れ furuete nemure.
Tremble as you sleep
いつの日に結ばれるまだ見えないあなたよ itsu no hi ni
musubareru mada minai anata yo.
One day we will be together
Though I've never seen you
この体もまごころも贈りたい昨日から明日へ
kono karada mo
magokoro mo okuritai
kinou kara ashita
he... I want to give my body and my
devotion From yesterday to tomorrow
愛を胸に抱いて ai wo mune ni dai te.
Bring love close to your chest
ふるえて眠れ furuete nemure.
Tremble as you sleep.
- More after this!
- Also, a nice present for you!
Hello?
Oh, it's Lupin. Nice work.
I knew I could count on you.
You can get rid of Zeal now.
Get rid of what?
Hey, stop joking.
A weapon that collects
solar flares...
Controllable even up
to the ozone layer...
Throw it away! What a waste!
Thanks for the gift,
I'll put it to good use!
Hey!
Oh, yeah.
As a token of thanks,
I've given your...
location to your
eternal soulmate!
Lupin! You're under arrest!
You've got to be kidding!
If you will not draw your
sword to confront your enemies
then for what will
you draw your sword?
I will draw my sword
to protect what is important.
THE END
