Lupin Red!
Lupin Blue.
Lupin Yellow!
Thief Sentai...
Lupinranger!
The trio from Jurer are the thieves?
Huh?
It just came to me.
Give it a rest...
Seriously.
No, no way, that can't be!
What evidence suggests that?
- We'll collect the evidence now.
Jim.
Certainly!
It was easy enough to look them up.
Yano Kairi, 19 years old.
His parents died when he was young, so he lived with his older brother.
After graduating high school,
he started working at, and moved into Bistrot Jurer.
The kid might joke around, but he's had it rough...
Yoimachi Touma, 24 years old.
He worked at a French restaurant in the city, Ciel Bleu.
He resigned last year.
That's a pretty famous restaurant.
I've been before. Why'd he quit?
The rumors are that his fiancée left him.
So then he was scouted to work at Jurer...
Last we have...
Hayami Umika, 18 years old.
So cute.
She dropped out of the Kohakugaoka Girl's High School last year.
Moved out, and started working at Jurer.
The Kohakugaoka Girl's School?
Isn't that...?
Yes.
It's located near where the mass disappearances from last year occurred.
A number of its students are still missing.
I bet some of her friends are missing too! That poor girl!
See, Tsukasa!
How could a regular girl be a phantom thief?
She could've received extraordinary training.
So, what's the plan? Do we dig further into their backgrounds?
No.
- I think that we should— - Now, hold on.
Even with the Global Police's authority,
and even if the circumstances are unique, without proper evidence,
an arrest would set the media off—
- I understand, sir. - The media?!
From how the thieves have acted so far,
we should be able to catch them in the act under close surveillance.
Hey, wait!
Aw, man!
What the...? Where'd he go?
- A dead end? - We screwed up!
But it looks like Kogure was right about something being fishy around here.
Guess we'll try again later.
Mysterious treasures left by the phantom thief Arsène Lupin, known as the Lupin Collection...
Have been stolen by the Ganglers!
The thieves who fight to recover what they've lost.
The police who fight to protect world peace.
Whose side are you on?!
Thief Sentai Lupinranger VS Police Sentai Patranger
Flash, the bright light's shining
There's a sly smile
In the shadows' silhouette
Search, and hunt them down
If you want to know who we are
Then you'll have to catch me, if you can!
Destiny, here's your warning
Only those who truly know
Are you going to keep stealing
The worth of these pieces
Behind a facade that you call justice?
Can get their hands
(Empty those hands and raise them up!)
On this dazzling and revered Collection!
The Lupins dance through the air
Hold up, Lupin! Run if you can
Gonna chase you up, anywhere you are
They'll chase you up, and take it all back!
To protect the world
So they can reclaim their frozen time...
And ensure its peace
They'll spin the dial
The Lupins are closing in
Hold up, Lupin! Run if you can
Don't expect any goodbyes
They'll chase you up and bid you adieu
They're the determined Patrangers!
They're the dazzling Lupinrangers!
It's a showdown!
Here's your order.
The Thieves' Identities
Excuse me!
Oh, one second please!
Sorry about the wait.
Can we get two of meal B?
Umika, three meal A's in the window.
Aww, we're so busy!
Where the heck is Kairi?!
Detective Tsukasa... let's give it a rest.
No. Not yet.
We're sticking around for a bit longer.
I don't want to suspect them like this.
What's he doing...?
Could he have gone up the wall to escape...?
Hey...
Hey! Hey, man! Down here!
Goodie? How'd you even get in there?!
- Not so loud!
What?
You're being watched by the Global Police.
They're onto you guys. They know you're the phantom thieves.
Are you serious?
What?!
Oh no no no, they finally figured it out...?
No. The fact that they haven't come after us in force...
Probably means that they only still have suspicions.
This is still bad.
If they watch us in our downtime, it'll be hard to move when we need to.
Yeah.
And when we have to track down that Gangler hideout...
Yo!
Hey, so why are you guys thieves anyway?
You're asking now?
Didn't Kogure tell you?
Haven't run into him, actually...
Well...
One year ago, we all lost people important to us.
So... if we collect the entire Lupin Collection,
we learned that it could grant any wish.
If you retrieve all of it,
my employer, a descendant of Arsène Lupin...
will grant your wish.
I get it. Sounds like something he'd think up!
What about you? Why did you bother warning us?
My job is to protect the Collection!
If you guys get caught, it'd be bad for me!
Then how about you stop helping the cops out?
Yeah!
Hey, when I feel good about somebody, I just gotta help them out!
You humans are the same way, aren't you?
Will you be at Jurer tomorrow?
Sakuya
Will you be at Jurer tomorrow?
Sakuya
Will you be at Jurer tomorrow?
Sakuya
Will you be at Jurer tomorrow?
Sakuya
Will you be at Jurer tomorrow?
Sakuya
Yeesh, it's Sakuya...
He's asking if I'll be here tomorrow.
He's gonna ask you out again?
Oh boy, I hope not. I'll say I can't because of work.
There...
I'll be working at Jurer all day.
Umika
I'll be working at Jurer all day.
Umika
I'll be working at Jurer all day.
Umika
I'll be working at Jurer all day.
Umika
I'll be working at Jurer all day.
Umika
Read
This is weird.
If the cops suspect us,
why would one of them ask you out on a date?
I get you.
They must be probing us for something...
Huh?
What do we do? What do we do?!
Tomorrow...
What're they planning?
They aren't making this easy.
Hey, Sakuya.
Put the phone away.
Umika is going to be at Jurer all day tomorrow.
You realize you're on du—
That's not what I mean! Listen...
Tomorrow, we should go to Jurer and pretend there's a Gangler attack.
If they really are the phantom thieves, they'll take the bait.
I see! A decoy operation.
I want to prove Umika is innocent as soon as possible.
But... where do we lure them to?
From what we've gleaned so far,
they likely have their own independent source of intel.
Come to think of it, Yano Kairi was acting a bit suspicious by the Hamagasaki Water Treatment Plant...
That's perfect! It'll be easy to set up a blockade around there.
But we need some kind of Gangler for a decoy...
A stand-in for a Gangler...?
I can't think of anyone.
I mean, what kind of creature has a safe on it's body?
But I'm only programmed for desk work...
Don't worry.
Everyone here is a Global Police agent.
If anything happens, I'll be there to help you.
I understand...
And I'll give it my best shot!
Good.
Welcome.
Hey...
Is Kairi not here?
Uh, well...
He's on his break, in the room upstairs.
Do you need him for something?
Not really, no.
Two coffees, please.
Coming right up.
Keiichiro, we're in Jurer.
Got it.
Let's commence operations.
Puny Humans! I am the Gangler, N'Emy Karter!
What?!
A Gangler is at the Hamagasaki Water Treatment Plant?!
Got it. The Hamagasaki Water Treatment Plant, right?
We'll be right there.
Let's go, Sakuya!
Right!
Sorry, about the order! Keep the change!
If they move out now, that confirms it.
I'm sure they won't!
I believe in Umika.
You work me like a dog!
Now you're gonna pay!
...That's just acting, right?
Got you now, Gangler.
The phantom thieves?! They actually showed up!
Uh... Well...
What do you want?!
Isn't that obvious?
We're here for your treasure.
Tsukasa, Sakuya, the Lupinrangers just showed up!
That can't be! No one's left Jurer yet!
Thank goodness! I knew they weren't the thieves!
H-Hang on a sec!
Huh?
If you want my piece of the Collection...
Uh...
I know!
You have to answer my riddle!
Keiichiro, what's going on?
Let's see...
I stick together with monaka and manju,
but not with dorayaki...
What am I?
What are you doing?!
There's no way you could distract them with a riddle!
Monaka...
And manju?
He's trying to figure it out?
Dorayaki...
Hey, what's going on?
Let's change the plan to arresting the thieves.
I mean, they all have red bean paste in them...
But monaka can have other stuff, so...
Wait!
There must be a secret exit!
Tsukasa!
Huh?
I thought you went to fight the Gangler.
This can't be...
- Hey! Detective Tsukasa!
No. Not yet.
Kairi...
Where's Kairi?
Like I said, he's upstairs—
By the authority of the Global Police, I need to confirm that.
Bonjour.
Can I help you with something?
You!
Oh, crap!
Goodbye!
That's cheating.
I thought the idea was we settle this with the riddle.
Hey, explain what's going on!
Keiichiro...
We just confirmed they were all at Jurer.
I'm sorry. I was wrong after all.
I knew Umika was innocent!
In that case, there's no reason to let them run free any longer!
Freeze! Gl—
You won't escape, Lupinrangers!
No good... I'm reaching my energy limit...
Hey, what's—!
We should be clear now.
My goodness...
Things seemed to go well.
- Looks like we managed to fool them. - That went well.
See? Smooth sailing, thanks to me!
I had no idea Kogure was a master of disguise.
Old guy is sharper than he seems!
Please stop!
Seriously, stop!
It's coming from here...
So that's how they did it...
The Ganglers...
S-S-Stop it, Ganglers!
I-I'll kick your butts!
Ah, guess I've been found out.
You...
I have a name, you know.
It's Gauche Le Medoux. The Gangler's top doctor.
And just when I thought I could amuse myself with some human experimentation.
Man...
I guess all you Ganglers are total scumbags, huh?
Freeze! ...Jim!
Keiichiro!
Jim, what's going on here?
It's the Ganglers! Please, help those people!
Understood!
H-Huh?
What?!
There you are.
I can see you...
Everything about you.
The good parts, the bad, all of it.
What do you mean?! Is that what your Collection piece does?
I wonder how the other two will be.
Binoculars?
Wait, that's...!
Those guys can grow too?
Oh, well.
Let's have more fun next time.
Get Set!
Ready... Go!
R-R-Red!
Hurry and get clear!
Lupinrangers...
Sorry we're late!
Not what I expected to see...
The explanations can wait.
Let's combine and wrap this up.
Good Striker!
Get Set!
Ready... Go!
G-G-Good!
I'm 100% with you thieves today!
Thief Combination Time!
Let's steal victory!
Alright.
Ready! Lupin Kaiser!
Okay.
What now?
Doesn't get much more desperate...
Thanks muchly for bunching up like that.
Cyclone!
Get Set!
Ready...
This'll make it easy to wipe you all out.
Go!
C-C-Cyclone!
Left arm, swapping out!
It's over!
Oh, yeah!
Stirring Tornado!
Good Striker Rapid Fire: Send You Flying Shot!
Forevermore...
- Nailed it! - Adieu!
I feel fantastic!
And that's adieu for me, too!
You were almost too late showing up, Kogure...
I was starting to panic.
Excusez-moi.
It had been so long. I had a bit of trouble with the disguise.
But to think Good Striker would help us out...
We should be in the clear for the time being.
Actually, Gauche said something weird.
The binoculars piece of the Collection she has...
How does its power work?
Binoculars?
Yeah.
I don't know. But I'll look into it.
I'm counting on you.
Hey guys, what sticks together with manju and monaka...
I was so sure I had figured out the phantom thieves' identities.
But I failed.
Tsukasa, don't let it get you down.
We'll know who they are once we arrest them.
Plus, we cleared out a Gangler hideout,
and rescued some people.
I'd say things turned out well.
And I know Umika's innocent now!
It's all thanks to Jim!
Well, I'm talented at everything I do, you see!
By the way, Jim...
What was the answer to your riddle?
You were wondering too, Keiichiro?
What sticks together with monaka and manju,
I stick together with monaka and manju, but not with dorayaki. What am I?
but not with dorayaki...
I stick together with monaka and manju, but not with dorayaki. What am I?
I have no idea.
The answer will be after the commercial break!
I got it! It's lips!
Huh?
Monaka
Monaka.
Manju.
Dorayaki.
Dorayaki
When you pronounce dorayaki, you don't put your lips together.
The answer: Lips
Ding ding ding!
You are correct!
Did you all get it?
NExT EPISode
Here's your preview!
The phantom thieves are after a pendant?
I need it to get my brother back.
But...!
Our...
Lupin Collection pieces...

What's wrong?
