Plot
While returning home, gentleman thief Arsène Lupin III's hideout is attacked, and his vast collection of treasures is destroyed. Amid the wreckage, Lupin discovers a strange clue left behind by the attackers: a torn fragment of a map bearing the coordinates of an uncharted island. Intrigued and eager for answers, Lupin assembles his companions — his sharpshooting partner Daisuke Jigen, the samurai Goemon Ishikawa XIII, and the femme fatale Fujiko Mine — and secures a plane to investigate the island marked on the map.
