The Columbus Files comes to Amazon Prime!
The 1999 TV special, Lupin III: The Columbus Files, is now available in North America digitally via Amazon Prime.
As with Dragon of Doom and Tokyo Crisis, only the mid-2000’s FUNimation English dub is available, with no Japanese language option on offer in the digital release.
While it’s nice to see more and more Lupin specials make it onto digital format, for those of you who prefer the Japanese language audio (like myself), do keep in mind that the Blu-ray releases from Discotek Media are still available.
If you haven’t seen this one yet, have a read of the synopsis below and be sure to check it out!
“CAN HARD-BOILED EGGSPLORER LUPIN CRACK THE LOCATION OF THE COLUMBUS EGG?
When Fujiko secures a file that documents the location of the fabled Columbus Egg– a mystical relic found by Christopher Columbus which can be harnessed to control the weather– she quickly recruits Lupin and the gang to track down the long-lost treasure.
To prevent a sinister villain from finding the Egg, Fujiko memorizes the file and destroys it. Unfortunately, in the process, she contracts amnesia, changing her personality and wiping her memory of Lupin and his friends almost entirely. Can they restore Fujiko back to normal before the Egg falls into the hands of a madman?”
