Discotek Media hasn’t had the formal solicitations go out for these yet but they’ve slotted the two Lupin the 3rd Vs Detective Conan works for an October 27th, 2015 release date. The two separate DVD releases will provide plenty of space for the movie and TV special to shine and they’ve now brought out the first look at their cover artwork – which may not be completely finalized at this point. But with the blending of the logo designs it’s certainly interesting to see the approach they’re taking.
Plot concept: Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: In a country called Vesparand, a new mineral with super stealth properties has been discovered which attracts Lupin’s attention. At the same time the untimely deaths of Queen Sakura and her son, Prince Gill, leave Princess Mira next in succession to the throne. During a trip to Japan, Princess Mira finds her double in Ran and takes the opportunity to trade places, which ends with Ran being spirited away to Vesparand with Conan, Zenigata, Kogoro Mouri, Lupin and Fujiko in tow. There they meet a waiting Jigen and solve the mystery of the deaths of the Queen and Prince.
Will this be available in Blu-ray?
