ルパン三世 愛のダ・カーポ 〜FUJIKO'S Unlucky Days〜
“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 that controls the weather – she quickly recruits Lupin and the gang to track down the long-lost treasure.
