Lupin III: Greatest Capers é uma compilação de dois episódios da segunda temporada da serie televisiva Lupin III que foi lançada em vídeo pela Streamline Pictures.
Ambos os episódios foram dirigidos por Hayao Miyazaki (que já havia dirigido o segundo filme de Lupin III, O Castelo de Cagliostro) sob o pseudônimo de Teruki Tsutomu; 145: Albatross, Asas da Morte (Wings of Death - Albatross) e 155: Até Sempre Querido Lupin (Farewell My Beloved Lupin).
Os episódios foram produzidos pela Studio Telecom, que produziu 11 dos 155 episódios da segunda temporada de Lupin III, incluindo os dois episódios dirigidos por Hayao Miyazaki.
The plot of Marine Express can be described in two parts. The first part focuses on the people boarding the train and the problems they encounter on it. The second part takes place after the train has stopped at its half-way point, an island that used to be home to an ancient civilization millennia ago and has its fair share of secrets.
Bander is a 17-year-old boy from Earth who lives on a distant planet, which is populated by human shape-shifters who feed off of vegetables and animal tails. Violence soon breaks out, as invaders launch an attack on Bander's new planet. This was Japan's first 2-hour animated film for television. The program received high ratings when broadcast as part of a set of 24-hour TV programs called "Ai wa Chikyu wo Sukuu" on Nippon Television. After a long gap since his last animated film for television, this work fully reflects Osamu Tezuka's desire to achieve theatrical quality with this production.
