Lupin III vs. Detective Conan's Animated Music Video Posted

The Japanese rock band 99RadioService is currently streaming a music video for its new song "wonderland" that features clips from the Lupin III vs. Detective Conan The Movie film. The song is featured as an insert song in the movie. The video will be available until March 31.

99RadioService has also preformed the opening theme songs for both seasons of Chihayafuru.

In the film, the "Cherry Sapphire," an illusive secret treasure that holds the key to the entire world, will bring the two titular characters in a "head-to-head confrontation." Lupin is suspected of stealing the gem, and "when the truth is revealed, the curtain will open on the greatest battle in the world."

The film opened in Japan on December 7, and has earned 3,636,500,850 yen (about US$34.7 million) in theaters and sold 3,088,143 tickets as of January 7. The film has topped the 3.61-billion-yen (US$34.4 million) box office gross of Detective Conan: Private Eye in the Distant Sea, the Detective Conan franchise's highest-grossing film until now.
