* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/HayaoMiyazaki was approached to direct the third film, but he was both busy with "Nausicaa'' and uninterested in revisiting ''Lupin'' anyways. Creator/MamoruOshii was then to direct this film, and with the help of Creator/YoshitakaAmano, even made [[https://dagmartoons.tumblr.com/post/631704310432120832/mamoru-oshiis-lupin-iii-so-someone-in-the-reblogs some concept art]]. However, his plans were considered too unusual for Lupin (though the final product isn't that less bizarre).

* EarlyDraftTieIn: As discussed regarding Mamoru Oshii's involvement with the earlier drafts of the film, the reverseable cover for Discotek's Blu-Ray release shows an alternate poster for the film, showing Lupin and Fujiko using golden weapons while Jigen and Goemon face off with Zenigata. In the background behind Lupin is the Tower of Babel amongst upside-down pyraminds shooting lightning from their tips at all sorts of New York junk. Even further in the background is the face of Satan from behind the Tower, suggesting that the idea of the Prince of Darkness' involvement was cut later on.

** Dub-related. This film would have been dubbed much earlier and by Geneon, alongside the rest of Parts 1, 2, and 3, as well as a possible re-re-dub of The Castle of Cagliostro. Unfortunately, Geneon was hit with financial problems causing them to stop dubbing after dubbing the Mystery of Mamo and up to episode 79 of Part 2.
