Lupin the 3rd vs. Detective Conan is a 2009 Anime TV special directed by Hajime Kamegaki on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of Nippon TV and the 50th anniversary of Yomiuri TV. The kingdom of Vespania is causing quite a stir due to a recently discovered mineral deposit, which also arouses Lupin's interest. At the same time, the queen and prince unexpectedly die in a hunting accident, making Princess Mira next in line for the throne. During Princess Mira's state visit to Japan, Mira and Ran run into each other, stunned to discover that they look exactly alike. Immediately, Mira seizes the chance to switch places with Ran. Consequently, Ran has to serve as a double and flies back to Vespania, where Conan is meanwhile trying to solve the queen's questionable death with Jigen.
