SUPER SENTAI SERIES
Salut, my beloved Paris.
The time for us to part has come.
I'm off to the chaos of Japan.
All aboard!
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!
The New Thief Is An Officer
You sure kept me waiting!
You didn't talk to the cops, right?
No... I did just like you said.
Here's what you asked for!
Dad!
Now let my daughter go, please!
Now why would I do that?
You're both gonna die here.
Why?!
Please... even if it's only her...!
Dad...!
X-X-X!
Who are you?!
A solitary, sterling phantom thief...
Lupin X!
So you're one of those thieves everybody's talking about?
If you think you can stack up to the mighty Zaldan, then you're dead wrong!
Not bad!
But if I use my Collection piece, it'll boost my life energy,
and double my attack power!
You think you can you survive that?
7-2-1!
I've taken your piece of the Lupin Collection.
No way! Stolen before the fight could really start?!
I do believe it's time to say goodbye.
Strange... he's a Status Double?
Ook!
My apologies for the delay, miss.
Th...
Thank you...
Thank you so much, Mr. Thief.
No need to worry, now.
You've my word, that nasty Gangler will be dealt with by me, in time.
You're amazing!
Say cheese.
Oui.
What?!
A new phantom thief named Lupin X?!
Huh?
Hey, K-Man! Let me see that!
A New Phantom Thief Named Lupin X?!
I can't believe the Lupinrangers had another accomplice...
Except we don't.
And there's a Gangler at large?! This is no time for reading!
Who the heck is this Lupin X guy?
That'd be me!
Huh?
Oh, you clearly don't believe me.
In that case... how about if I do this?
Hup.
Believe me, now?
I...
Am Lupin X!
Huh...?
Lupin X?
Whoa...
No way!
Hey, that's mine!
He's got mine too!
When the...?
Sorry to borrow these without asking.
Merci. Merci.
Merci.
I never even noticed...
Oho?
8:42 AM...
A male claiming to be the thief, Lupin X
has been apprehended by the Global Police, for questioning.
Oh la la.
That guy's a phantom thief.
Did a Lupinranger just get arrested?
What's with him?
"I've been waiting to meet you, Lupin Red."
"I'll give you a wonderful present next time."
"The phantom thief, Lupin X."
Good morning, Jim.
Good morning, sir!
None of the Tactical Unit are in yet?
The three of them are in the questioning room.
You know that Lupin X thief everyone's on about?
Well, Keiichiro already caught him!
What?!
This is bad...
Looks like he already knows who we are.
Oh man, oh man, oh man...
What do we do now, huh?!
He was caught by the cops, right?
Yeah. If he starts talking, we're done for.
We won't be able to stay here anymore...
Okay, let's run for it!
Pack your things, we're running!
Let's see...
Calm down, Umika.
There might still be a way out of this.
Huh?
Touma... don't tell me...
We're breaking into the Global Police's offices,
and getting Lupin X out.
Wow...
So, this is the GSPO's Japanese branch?
You don't seem to be very worried.
Can we start with getting your name?
My name is Noël.
Takao Noël.
You can just call me Noël, if you prefer.
Huh?
I'm 26 years old.
Blood type B. My favorite food...
Escargot.
Does he think this is a joke?
Of course not!
I imagine you'll need all that information.
After all...
The four of us will soon be bathed in the warm glow of friendship like a sunny afternoon!
Oh, time to eat!
- I'll help myself.
A friendship?!
I'm not about to become friends with some thief—!
Calm down, sir!
Easy there! Come on!
Stop!
Commissioner Hilltop...
He's a transfer from the Global Police's French HQ...
A fellow officer.
Zaldan...
For someone so talented, yet taken down so easily...
This new thief must be pretty good.
He just caught me off guard, that's all!
How long until your second piece gets taken, I wonder?
He ain't touching it!
An undercover agent from the Global Police HQ in France?!
Why didn't you mention something when I brought you in?
Sooner or later, you all would know.
Plus, with your assistance, I was escorted to the office safely.
Down, down boy.
Noël was originally working at the French HQ
to study the Lupin Collection.
Indeed!
You three are able to fight the Ganglers
all thanks to my help!
What?!
Then you mean...
The equipment we've been using...
Created by me, by modifying the Collection.
Wow, you're amazing!
Why would you suddenly come to Japan?
Right. And why were you dressed as one of the thieves?
I'm actually curious about that, as well.
I'd be glad to answer your question!
You see, I transformed into one of the thieves...
Emergency! Emergency!
There's been Gangler activity reported in Mitsutome!
We'll finish this later.
Let's go.
Yes, sir!
Let's get going.
Hold on a sec.
A Gangler must've shown up...
Oh, now what?
Which is more important? The Gangler or Lupin X?
That's actually him there with K-Man and his crew.
He's Lupin X.
What?! Really?
They didn't arrest him?
What's going on here?
Guess we've gotta follow them either way.
Show yourself, Lupin X!
Freeze! Global Police!
I don't have any business with you guys.
Hold on.
Zaldan here is after me.
I'll handle it.
It'll be a good chance to prove that I'm on your side, as well.
Police Change.
X-nize!
Police X-Change!
Patren X!
The proudly glittering police officer...
Patren X!
Who are you supposed to be?
I don't got no business with any cops!
Don't you believe in saving the best for last?
Like the sweet strawberry...
sitting atop the slice of gateau.
He's not a thief! He's a cop.
But he said he was a phantom thief...
This... doesn't match the eyewitness' description at all.
He created the VS Changers.
Changing into a Patranger is no surprise.
Enough! I don't know what his deal is, but we're getting in there!
#1! Patrize!
Police Change!
Patranger!
By the authority of the Global Police, we're stopping you by force!
Suppression!
Oh no, oh no...
We'll deal with his game later.
Let's get down there before his Collection piece is gone!
Red! 0-1-0!
Masquerase! Thief Change!
Lupinranger~
Lupinrangers!
Great... I didn't want you guys, either!
Gotcha!
7-2-1!
What...?
There you are, my dear thieves.
His front safe is already empty.
You'll be wanting the one on his back.
Hup...
He has two safes?
Hey!
What's your game?!
You can relax. Your identities are safe.
I can assure of that.
Why trust a cop?
It's like I said...
I'm a thief, too.
Thief Change.
Thief X-Change!
Lupinranger~
Lupin X!
What?!
A solitary, sterling phantom thief...
Lupin X!
You're that thief from yesterday!
Sorry for the delay.
And now, for the best part.
Now I'm gonna make you suffer!
His Collection piece lets him control clouds?
That stings...!
I'm afraid that just won't be enough to hurt me.
5-9-1!
Stop!
I'll be taking your piece of the Lupin Collection.
Oh, no...
Time flies when you're having fun, doesn't it?
But now it's time to say goodbye.
Thief!
X-Time! Countdown...
3-2-1-0!
Superior X!
Seizing X-Strike!
This is my task.
To retrieve the Collection pieces...
That's why he uses the same power as the thieves?
So, is he a cop? Or a thief?
Thief or not, he's a threat to us.
This man...
He's good.
Another interesting little wrinkle in the fold.
Hey, Gauche.
Understood.
Now, my darling little treasure...
Make Zaldan feel better.
Our Boss would like to see more,
so he says.
So, she's the Status Gold I've heard of...
Hey, silver thief!
Give me my Collection piece back!
Whoa, there.
So, someone wants to see more?
My, oh my.
X-Train Silver!
All Clear In Front. Signal Clear.
Ready To Roll Out!
All Aboard!
X-X-X!
Hey, a train!
Does he use a different system than ours?
I'm gonna snap that thing into pieces!
Not bad.
We should get going, too.
Get Set! Go!
R-R-Red! B-B-Blue! Y-Y-Yellow!
There you are.
Hey! I appeared out of nowhere,
and isn't that the X-Train... and Noël?
Hey, Goodie! You know this guy?
Know him? Noël and me go way back!
Huh?
Well, if it isn't Good Striker!
Living the free life as usual, I see!
I wanna get in on this!
In exchange, you better tell us his deal later.
Good Striker!
Get Set!
Ready... Go!
G-G-Good!
Thief Combination Time!
Let's steal victory!
Ready! Lupin Kaiser!
I suppose this is where I come in.
Police!
Patren X!
Now then, once again...
All aboard!
That's my Noël!
It has attacks like that?
Thief!
Lupin X!
Hey, Lupinrangers!
You can use these!
Are those...?
VS Vehicles?
Wait, but how?
I thought he was our enemy.
It's fine! Just use them!
Huh...
Okay.
Fire!
Go!
Thunder!
As Fast As Lightning! F-F-Fire!
Swapping out the arms!
Ready! Lupin Kaiser Trains!
Wow, we've got trains for arms now!
I'm feeling electrical shocks, and fiery heat at the same time!
Nice!
Très bien!
Now, fellow Lupinrangers, let's make a big finish!
Why's he calling the shots?
Good Striker: Burn-Em-To-A-Crisp Fire!
X-Gatling Strike!
I guess I'm done monkeying around!
Ook!
And that is adieu to your future.
Well, I should be going. Au revoir.
Hey! Noël?!
That lunatic...
Why did he help the thieves?!
Is he trying to infiltrate their ranks... for the investigation?
What?
Is that it?
Alright Goodie, time to fill us in.
Okay! Story time!
Welcome back.
Noël!
I've been waiting...
My dear thieves.
NExT EPISode
Here's your preview!
I don't think you're really a spy.
We can't trust you.
Takao Noël is suspected by both the police and thieves.
What he suggests will leave you shocked!
Next time:
Friend Or Foe? On Board Or Not?
Will you fight alongside me?
