Lupin Zero is an exciting new prequel series letting fans experience the exciting first adventure of the iconic gentleman thief and his long-time partner-in-crime: Jigen! Later this year, fans cano add the series to their collection with the release of the LUPIN ZERO Complete Collection on Blu-ray!

“The exploding megalopolis of 1968 Tokyo is a wonderland filled with constant innovations, tempting opportunities, and beautiful girls! Unfortunately for young Arsene Lupin (the Third), his father, Arsene Lupin II, insists that young Lupin stay on the right side of the law and avoid those temptations… even though Lupin III’s Granddad, Arsene Lupin I, the world’s greatest thief, has stuffed young Lupin’s head with the tricks of his nefarious trade! Then Lupin III encounters similarly trouble-prone schoolmate Daisuke Jigen, and when bad boy meets bad boy, what do you think they’re going to do? It’s the start of a beautiful friendship and the wildest crime spree of all time in LUPIN ZERO!”
