What They Say:
Lupin the 3rd is up to his old tricks as he and Jigen steal a precious diamond during the height of Carnivale. Easy enough for the world’s greatest thief. But Lupin’s walking straight into trouble as the plane he boards for his escape has been prophecied to be hijacked! A bizarre cult called the Nostradamus Sect has successfully predicted the outcome of world events by consulting the ancient writings of their sacred book. And so far, they’ve never been wrong. Aboard the plane Lupin encounters Fujiko working as a nanny for a young girl named Julia. She was hired to steal the book of prophecies, which is being stored in a vault atop a skyscraper owned by Julia’s father, a wealthy American with dreams on the Presidency. What’s more, the vault can only be opened by a member of Julia’s family. Without warning the prophecy comes true and Julia is kidnapped in the process! Can Lupin rescue Julia, find a way into the vault, and discover the connection between the cult and the kidnapping? And what about his diamond?!
