Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Lupin III: Dragon of Doomnote Original title: 燃えよ斬鉄剣 (Moe yo Zantetsuken; Burn, Zantetsuken!), the sixth entry in the Lupin III Yearly Specials, first aired on Japanese television on July 29th, 1994. It was directed by Masaharu Okuwaki, who worked as a storyboard director on the Pink Jacket series, and went on to storyboard other specials in the franchise. It was dubbed into English and released on DVD in the USA by Funimation in 2002, and was re-released as part of the "First Haul" boxset in 2006.Lupin has his mind set on a small golden dragon statue located in the remains of the sunken Titanic, a treasure that the Chinese crime lord Chin Chin Chow is also after. Once they have their hands on it, though, Goemon, putting honor before his allies, is determined to retrieve the statue from them, with help from his childhood friend Kikyo, to keep his family's honor intact, even if it means killing them both.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })This special is noteworthy for being the last one where Yasuo Yamada played the role of the titular character before his death in 1995, after which he would be replaced by Kanichi Kurita from the next chronological entry onwards.note Yamada's final-final turn as Lupin actually came in a Japanese commercial for Esso (a.k.a. Exxon), just a couple of months before he died.Preceded by Lupin III: Voyage to Danger and followed by Lupin III: The Pursuit Of Harimao's Treasure.Complete spoilers below — don't read further if you don't want to know how this caper turns out! | |

| Lupin III: Dragon of Doom / int_57cf76a1 | comment |
Hate Plague: Chin Chin Chow attempts to make Lupin, Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon kill each other by exposing them to a gas that makes them become berserk and attack anything on sight. While the other three all succumb to it, Lupin holds his breath long enough to keep himself from being affected until they can get out. | |

Masquerade Ball: Chin Chin Chow hosts one of some sort on his luxury cruise. Lupin and Jigen (dressed up as a vampire and a cartoon wolf respectively) managed to attend the ball through forged invitation cards, whilst Fujiko (dressed as a cowgirl) really was invited. | |

Out-of-Character Moment: While sneaking into Chin Chin Chow's villa, Kikyo (usually serious) suddenly tries to seduce Goemon and drag him on a bed, and looks very disappointed when he resists. A sign that she's really aiming at the scroll. | |

Alas, Poor Villain: From Goemon's point of view, Kikyo. She was revealed to be an unsympathetic and unrepentant jerkass after The Reveal, but for someone who had known her in the days of their youth before it went all wrong, it had to sting hard. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: In the climax, Chin Chin has a heat-seeking missile fired to shoot down Lupin and crew’s plane. Lupin managed to avoid getting hit by it with evasive maneuvers while Goemon attacks the stealth bomber. After Goemon successfully sliced the stealth bomber in half, the heat-seeker from before flew between the halves and detonated, destroying the bomber and everyone in it. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade: It's about Zantetsuken, and the alloy it's made of. Expect lots of things to be cut into tiny bits. In the climax, it manages to cleave Chin Chin Chow's stealth bomber, covered in the same alloy Zantetsuken's made of, in half. | |

Unexplained Recovery | |
| Lupin III: Dragon of Doom / int_e5d8460d | comment |
Unexplained Recovery: Genzai gets killed off three times, yet he reappears alive and well after both times before he's Killed Off for Real in Lupin's final showdown against him. Possibly hand waved by the fact that he's a Ninja, the dub mentions there isn't just one Genzai, and Lupin figures out which one was the "last" one. | |

Me's a Crowd: In the movie is highly implied that Genzai's using a ninja clone technique or body doubles, as he repeatedly "dies" only to reappear again unharmed. Midway through the movie he states (in the original dub) that "Genzai's not one man." | |
