This article is about the third opening theme composed by Takeo Yamashita for Part 1. For Part 2's third opening theme composed by Yuji Ohno and shares a similar name, see Theme from Lupin III '80.
"Lupin the Third Theme Song 3" (ルパン三世主題歌3 Rupan Sansei Shudaika 3?), alternatively known as "Theme of Lupin III, III", is the third opening theme of Lupin the Third Part I. It was composed and arranged by Takeo Yamashita and performed by Yoshiro Hiroishi. The lyrics were written by Tokyo Movie Kikakubu.[1]
Like Lupin III in the second opening, Koichi Zenigata describes his arc-rival Lupin III, his companions Daisuke Jigen, and Goemon Ishikawa XIII, his lover Fujiko Mine and then himself.
In 2022, rearrangements of this theme were used as insert songs in the 6-episode ONA Lupin Zero.
