China.

What's he going to steal there?

the antidote

I want to get into Lupin, but where do I start?

Anywhere. Cagliostro.

Portugal? Lupin going after the secret treasures of the Knights Templar only to be disappointed that all of their "treasure maps" are puzzles that both are esoteric teachings themselves and lead to further teachings rather than physical loot. The series could start in Jerusalem with the gang poking around in the tunnels under the temple mount and feature a side trip to Malta at some point. The overarching antagonist is some nutjob who considers himself a descendant of the Templar and is trying to reclaim their (non-existent) treasure so that he can reshape the world according to his ideals (which is essentially the opposite of the esoteric teachings of the Templar who had taken up the legacy of the ancient mystery religions and were thus seekers of societal balance through personal enlightenment). He starts off with a treacherous employer relationship toward Lupin who he tries to use to get closer to the treasure but does not want to share it in the end, but he becomes increasingly infuriated that Lupin is able to solve the various riddles, ciphers, and symbolic maps left by the Templar while he cannot. At first he seems like a competent villain and threat, but he is revealed to be a seething man-child who poses a risk to the gang because of how erratic and extreme he gets as his jealousy of Lupin grows. Guest girl of the series is a STACKED librarian with a demure but flirty disposition who is secretly an actual descendant of the Templar bemusedly overseeing Lupin's "quest" because she acknowledges that thieves are seekers of truth in their own way because they must dispense with illusions in order to find tangible things to steal.

Of the coronavirus?

Cagliostro is a perfectly fine introduction, just keep in mind Miyazaki makes the characters a little more noble than they're usually portrayed.

I'd suggest starting with Lupin the 3rd: Episode 0: The First Contact which is a nice little introductory movie, Miyazaki's episodes from Part 1, Castle of Cagliostro and then Part 4 and 5

There's no overarching story with Part 1, 2 or 3 aside from a couple character introductions in "Part 1" just about everything is self contained. Characters are the same, just the jackets are different. There's no real watch order either.
