You think he'll be back? Lupin was such a insane ride.
>That final scene
>Final episode of Lupin 2015 airs and no thread in the catalogue
What the fuck /a/?
Of course he'll be back.
>>138760412
I'm saving the two last episodes to watch back to back tonight, but unless they fuck up in a colossal way I agree. Blue Jacket was pretty cool, I hope the next iteration doesn't take too long.
>>138760412
I'm literally two episodes behind. I expect a good finale though.
>Final episode
Time to marathon. I stopped watching because they hyped the da vinci stuff then they forgot about it the next episode.
>>138761733
It's episodic, they're obviously saving it for the final few episodes.
I'm not a fan of the last arc, or rather, Da Vinci, but damn if that last half of the episode didn't get me really sad. It was a fun show.
Next week I'm gonna get ready to watch this, realize it's done, then get really sad.
>>138760412
>Final episode of Lupin 2015 airs and no thread in the catalogue
>What the fuck /a/?
Most everyone missed the ride because the schedule got fucked.
>>138760412
it was one hell of a ride, and yes, he'll be back, I hope so

>>138762389
thanks m8, I was waiting for this webm
Loved the series from start to finish, a fully enjoyable ride. Now I just hope it doesn't take so long for him to return.
>>138760412
Fuck, that final scene was good.
>rebecca and Nyx confirmed for one season only characters
I knew it had to be this way but still;_;
Even though it's over, at least we still have the dub to look forward to. speaking of which. Any news on it?

They'll be on the BD release.
Rebecca a shit. Hope she never comes back.

So spooky.
>>138762881
so wait. does that mean it wont air on tv? I already kind of assumed it may just be a blu ray release but I am not too sure. Is there a release date yet?
Hacent seen the series yet and im seeing spoilers in the thread.it's not that hard guys. Use them

>>138763628
You do realize there are spoilers for these threads that you're suppose to use so you dont spoil others.
>>138763628
>what are spoiler tags
you fuck off, cunt
I just want the series to continue. Perhaps leave Italy because I'm tired of that setting.
I just dont want to wait 30 years for part 5. everyone who works on the show will be dead by then.
AOTY
>>138764074
We'll get some fresh talent though
>>138764074
The manga will be fifty years old next year. They ought to have something to celebrate.
>>138762389
Lupin has always and will always be simply cool.
>>138764291
You mean like a TV special which is something we already get every year
>>138764181
That's the problem. You dont want new people to fuck up the formula.
>>138763071
>by the end
she was always a qt
So will the Italy only episodes ever get subbed?
>>138764517
Well duh. If not soon, then when they get dubbed in english, they'll also get subbed.
>>138764517
They were subbed
>>138763008
Lupin in prison, probably
My other favorites are Jigen goes to the dentist, the hotel, and the episode where Fujiko saves Lupin. That episode did more to make me like her as a character than what I've seen in the past decade
My favorite episode was the Christmas special...Oh wait. There wasn't one.
fucking japs.
>>138763559
to be fair, you jumped into a series finale thread. At least some spoilers are expected, and you're a fool for expecting otherwise
>>138764908
this. the series went on all throughout december. It would of been better if it had that one feel good episode.
So is this a general Lupin thread or we just talking about the serires finale?
>>138765275
looks like more of a finale/blue jacket general
>>138765349
well that sucks considering general Lupin threads dont last long. Making it more specific just means this thread it last about another half hour at the most.
>>138764908
I don't think the Japanese would know much about how Italians celebrate Christmas anyway.
>>138765275
>>138765417
Just post whatever you want so long as it's Lupin.
>>138765527
Just get a fuckload of characters, say they're Rebecca's family and you're done.
As long as you have a dope cenone (Dinner XXL) it's fine.
>>138765769

What a missed fucking opportunity
>>138766749
To be honest, I would have rather had a potential Christmas episode be aFujikoepisode.
>>138766841
I know you're kidding but still.
>>138763008
I can't decide between the car one and the spooky hotel one. Such beautiful chapters. I'm glad this series happened. I'm not a fan of the whole big plot from the series, to be honest; but in the middle there were many chapters that reminded us what make this characters so great.
>>138766749
If that episode were to happen, It would easily be in the top 10 greatest Lupin episodes of ll time.
Crap and the girls weren't even cute
>>138760412
>>Final episode of Lupin 2015 airs and no thread in the catalogue
>What the fuck /a/?
They are too busy posting 10 times the same thread about their favorite moe waifu that they'll forget about in 6 months.
>>138767034
Yeah they'd have to look 7 for you to be able to like them.
>>138766922
I wasn't kidding though.
I hope they remake all the old series. I could finally get around to starting the Lupin series then.
>>138767273
>remake
you do realize how dumb you seem by saying that, right? Just watch the old series.
I dropped it at the first episode, it was too generic, especially compared to Mine Fujiko and the Jigen movie. Does it pick up later or more of the same?
Which Lupin is the closest one to the manga source?
>>138767540
The actual plot gets going in the first two-parter of the series.
>>138767469
Nah, it's too fucking old to watch
>>138767542
The Osumi Green Jacket/Series 1 episodes, and even that's not totally like Monkey Punch's Lupin.
I wish Shin Lupin III was completely translated.
Which subs are good to watch blue jacket? I've held off watching this so I could marathon it, and though I was following the threads I forgot if there were any preferred subs that people were using.Inb4 "use the subs for the Italian dub".
>>138767540
I liked about the first half of Minne Fujiko, but that's about it. The second half was really uninteresting. The Jigen OVAs were quite good though.
>>138767679
As far as I know, at the beginning there were no subs, then someone started translating it from the Italian release; afterwards one or two guys corrected those translations to make them closer to the Japanese broadcast. But finally crunchyroll added it, with official English subs. Of course, everything that crunchyroll adds with such subs gets translated by HorribleSubs, so unless I'm wrong the HorribleSubs releases are the official translation to English.
>>138767648
It would be awesome if they did a faithful adaptation to the manga to celebrate the 50 years. If not the whole manga, at least some arc.
>>138767773
>everything that crunchyroll adds with such subs gets RIPPED by HorribleSubs
Fixed.
>>138767595

>was upset that no more Blupin
>realized Season 2 of Daredevil drops on Netflix
I am happy again.
season 2 of Spaghetti Lupin when?
>>138767807
I have thought of something like that...
A lot of the older series from parts 1 - 3 use concepts/stories straight from the manga with some alterations.
There was also this show called Monkey Punch: Manga Katsudou Daishashin, which kind of follows more of Monkey Punch's style of the series (as well as animating other Monkey Punch comics/stories).
I love MP's Lupin, but I also can't help but love the different takes of him in the anime adaptations.
I thought this was 26 episodes?
>>138767944
2 episodes are exclusive to those smelly italians although japan will be getting them for the blu rays and shit.
Owls left a bad taste in everyones mouth so nobody watched this.
>>138767942
I really wish I hadn't lost those raws now.
>>138768061
I have all of whatTokyo Pop had brought over to the statesbefore they crashed and burned. Unfortunately that means it's incomplete when it comes to the Shin series.
>>138768054
this
fucking Fujiko Mine series fucked everything up
>>138768158
>>138768054
you do realize that show was heavily praised by the common viewer but only gets shit on in a couple of forums and a few people on /a/. Even then the opinions are not even half and half
>>138768123
so why does tokyopop get a lot of criticism in the manga community? I heard that their translations arent very good, but they seem pretty good in the Lupin volumes.. aside from the fact they make Lupin seem like a brit by having him say shit like "bloody hell" and "mate". Isnt Tokyopop an American based company? I mean what the fuck
>>138768123
Any chance you'll ever scan the missing volumes?
You wouldn't even need to even ruin the volumes, just a LQ scan will suffice. It's better than the nothing we have right now.
>>138768606
have you tried buying the volumes?
>page 5
back to page 1 thread.
Best episodes: 6, 13, 20
The last arc was pretty dope too, though. The whole concept is cool. I think Rebecca's characterization was a bit all over the place, but everything else was interesting.
>>138768707
Volume 3 alone is 40+ $ on Amazon. If I had that kind of money I would have scaned them myself in the first place.
>>138760412
Made a thread shortly after the finale's subs came out, but it died shortly. Looks like Lupin threads are only active during night /a/. Anyways I loved this Lupin and it got me to check out the rest of Lupin past part 1, which I already really liked.
>>138767807
After reading most of the original manga, I wouldn't want that at all. I prefer the fun, clever and altruistic anime Lupin over the murdering, raping, James-Bond-wannabe manga Lupin. The good chapters got adapted but there were plenty of chapters all he does is shoot his enemies before they shoot him. Nothing interesting about them.
>>138769117
Speaking of, I've seen part 1, 4, and a few of the movies? What is worth watching next? Not looking to jump into something as big as red jacket so I'm talking more movies/specials.
>>138769047
wait are we talking about the original Lupin run? Because I paid only $8 for it like 2 months ago.
are you referring to Worlds Most Wanted?
>>138769168
Actually I'm still on Red jacket, one episode a day for me. It starts off inconsistent in the first dozen eps, but it gets pretty good shortly after. Episode 2 is pretty fucking amazing though, surely see that. I really liked the Walther P38, First Contact, and Jigen's Gravestone specials too
>>138769290
The original.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007X4IKMG
>>138767807
I think out of all the chapters I'd like to see adapted, I'd really like chapters 38 to 40 (Young Lupin.)
>>138769168
fuck. Here I go again
WATCH
>mystery of mamo
>castle of cagliostro
>legend of the gold babylon
>fuma conspiracy
>dead or alive (optional but great visuals)
>missed by a dollar
>walther P38
>first contact
>jigens gravestone
in that order. trust me. I'm an expert on great lupin shit.
>>138769358
I've seen Mamo, Cag, DoA, $1, and Jigen. Most were pretty great, though missed by a dollar and DoA was kinda meh. You're right that DoA had some cool visuals near the end there though.
>>138769428
Missed by a dollar was great because I love how zenigata mourned Lupin. Also loved how Lupin was such a playboy in it.
definitely check out P38. It's usually everyones favorite OVA. was a badass movie. Gold Babylon was weird but really enjoyable and had great nice colors. Fuma is just a beautiful film, Pretty much Cagliostro 2.0 but not good. Still great though
>>138769303
That's fucking weird considering I paid like 8 dollars for mine and its in great conditioning. Try EBay? I'm trying to remember if I got mine from there or amazon. It was literally not long ago.
I also bought volumes 4-13 from a cool guy on eBay about a week ago (already had 1-3) paid $200 for that set. Some of the books are worth $40-$60 individually. Volume 13 was out of print and hard to find for less than $100.
But like I said. Try eBay. There's a seller on there selling volumes 1-14 for only $215 which will be the best deal you will be able to find for a long time.
Or just search for volume 3 on there if that's all your looking for
>>138769549
Whoops. Meant not as good*
It's fantastic
>>138769714
How'd you feel about the different voice cast?
>>138768989
Rebecca was somewhat fucked because they skipped the episode when she falls for Lupin.
>>138769746
I grew up with the adult swim dub so I don't care as much as other anons
I will say I'd still prefer the original jap cast over the other jap cast they replaced though. Was just dumb, but they were still really good in it.
It's not like I can understand what the fuck they're saying so it didnt bother me as much. The only thing that actually annoyed me was them not using Yuji Ohno for the soundtrack. It just didnt feel right.
>>138769673
215$ is literally more than what I make in a month.
I informed myself already with what deals are available and considering I don't live in the US (or in a country with a decent postal service) the shipping alone is killing any initiative I'd have.
And not to be rude or anything of the sort, but it's kinda irritating when people pretend to know better than you what you know and don't know, especially when you spent quite some time getting documented on the subject. You could just have said "No, I don't want to scan them" and be done with the whole thing. Nothing wrong with it, y'know.
Only seen the first episode so far, how did it compare to the 2013 series?
>>138770007
I'm not the person you were asking to scan the book.
I mean I would do it, but I really dont how or care that much to do it.
Also I just wanted to give you some friendly advice since you said volume 3 was $40 on amazon. I bough mine for MUCH cheaper so that made me think you werent aware of some other places that you may be able to find it for a better price.
>>138770192
I see, sorry for the misunderstanding.
>>138770188
there wasnt a series that came out in 2013
>>138770007
>>138770226
I meant the Fujiko series, I guess that was 2012.
>>138769863
I like Toshio Furukawa and Mami Koyama as Lupin and Fujiko, but everybody else just didn't fit.
I don't think that Lupin III necessarily needs Yuji Ohno, but Fuma's music is really terrible. Even silence would have been better.
>>138770322
>Lupin III doesnt need yuji ohno
please leave.
>>138770266
They are 2 different shows. I love both but Part 4 is similar to Part 2 and 3. It's all about your tastes.
>>138770322
>Lupin III
>without yuji ohno
w..what would that even be? That's not even Lupin anymore.
>>138763008
My favorite episode was the Christmas speci... oh wait there wasnt one.
bullshit. they had 1 job.
I've only watched Cagliostro and a couple other Lupin movies, and read some of the manga.
Is this new anime good? What's it even called?

>>138770586
Any good subgroup? Or just HS?
>>138770629
Other subs are super behind from what i remember, so stick with HS
>>138770597
Part 1 had pretty crappy music in my opinion. It actually gets annoying after a few episodes.
I know some people like it but it's really not for me, and I respect everyones opinions. I am anice manafter all.
>>138770677
Yeah yeah, I know. Nice Guy Lupin doesn't have good lyrics.
But honestly, apart from that, I think it really does have pretty good music. I just wish it had been as well preserved.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah1apvnh9IA
>>138771255

I think Yuji Ohno is a genius, but I don't think he is the only one who can make Lupin III music. There'll also come a day where he won't be able to any more.
He is the heart of Lupin
>>138760412
Just watched it. Rebecca farewell was really sweet and that closing scene one by one on the train was really perfect and just the right note to end it.
>>138764074
I wish other countries with follow the Italian example and finance special seasons. Traveling with the Lupin gang would be pretty sweet.
>>138773062
I don't think other countries really care enough about Lupin to fund them.
>>138773405
He is loved is he US but he just hasnt been that relevant for the past decade due to lack of exposer.
Lupin
Is a nice man
>>138773682
Lupin was never really that relevant in the U.S. apart from a scant few dubs.
>>138763008
Goemon and the mercenary chick.
Its REALLY goddamn rare to have a good Goemon episode too.
he smiles
guys im going to bed so keep thread alive until tomorrow if you csn
>>138774246
Out of all the characters, Goemon seems to be the one that writers have the hardest time with.

Why should we care about that? Are you that much of a sheep that you can't think for yourself? Naruto is praised by the common viewers I guess that exalts it from all its flaws.
>>138768419
Even if that was true why should we care what other people think let alone people who don't care about the franchise at all because they're just following a bandwagon?
>>138774560
Fujiko is such a selfish bitch to him in the recent version though.
>>138763008
Spooky hotel or car one.
I wanted to quote >>138766955 but I also enjoyed the overarching plot.
>>138764074
>Perhaps leave Italy because I'm tired of that setting
I just want one episode in my city, then they can leave Italy.
Come on, we have two castles, one medieval, one from the 1800, both really really nice, and we are near the border for the perfect getaway.
You had tons of shit to work with instead of spending half the time in motherfucking San Marino
>>138767990
You're not missing anything.

What, there's been some new anime version? Wack, where can I watch it? Pretty much never watch anime so I don't know this stuff.
>>138775855
It's on the Youtube channel posted by >>138771715
Sincr e we are talking about the sound track, in the Yuji Ohno tradition each of the characters have their own character themes.
Lupin - theme of Lupin III
Jigen - Tornado
Goenmon - Zantetsuken
Fujiko - Love Squall
Zenigata - Zenigata March
Do NYX and Rebecca have their own musical cues, even if they probably won't appear beyond this series
>>138760412
there are 2 special episodes mnfg only one translated
>>138775927
>Pretty much never watch anime
Manga or crossie?
>>138776416
Manga
>>138768606
I never considered scanning the original manga because I found the majority of it alreadh uploaded. I have considered scanning Shin Lupin III but considering the fact that there is hardly a demand for it, I don't see why I should bother.
Most people I know don't like MP's Lupin because of how crude he is. I'm a fan of it, personally, but to each their own.
So 24 or 26 episodes? Were those two airing in Italy?
>>138777184
Volumes 5, 8, 9, 11, 12 and 13 are all missing of the original manga. That's almost half of the volumes, not a lot of people want to read stuff when they see such a big gap of missing content.
I'm also a fan of the manga, but again, I can't even try to recommend it since it's missing so many volumes.
Not only that, but I'm sure lots of people are interested but don't really talk about it. This was my first post about the manga after all, and I've been into Lupin since the Fujiko series aired. Granted I wasn't really into manga back then, but my point still stands.
Venice special never. No more Nyx ever. Fuck everything
>>138777808
I would still need a scanner, and the scans wouldn't be high quality.
>>138778132
I wish it wasn't over already as well, anon. It was a fun ride.
>>138778467
LQ scans are better than no scans at all and there's no real hurry, it's not like you'd have to scan them right now. It's fine to take your time and see if you want to get a cheap scanner or anything of the sort.
>>138778561
Ok. I'll try to get to it one of these days.
>>138778640
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
>>138778662
It will take me some time though.
I just moved to a new apartment and I'm still in the process of settling in. I also spent a bunch for new furniture, so you would have to be paitent.
I suppose once I'm ready to dump it I'll make a thread dedicated to it.
>>138778902
That's fine, thank you again!
>>138760412
It will end when Kobayashi decides to kick the bucket.
No one can replace the voice of Jigen.

>Final episode of Lupin 2015 airs and no thread in the catalogue
>What the fuck /a/?
We have had so many fucking generals about Lupin that i'm frankly sick of talking about it. So No talking, Only watching.
>>138770673
>Other subs are super behind from what i remember, so stick with HS
>>138774246
>Its REALLY goddamn rare to have a good Goemon episode too.
Goemon and Fujiko are the hardest to write for, it seems
It's even worse for Goemon because him and Jigen share the 'rough love life' gimmick
>>138768419
>that show was heavily praised by the common viewer
was it even successful financially? I remember a lot of people bandwagoning because it focused on the woman of the group and it had a female director
>>138780203
>not rebecca
Also I can never say it enough but, thank God for Italianon. What a cool guy, what decent work.
I hope he's around to see this. He surely didn't get enough appreciation during his run. In fact Lupin threads have only picked up since HS.

No more OCs. Please, for the love of God, if they do another Lupin series, the only characters that ever need to be in more than one episode are the five we've always had.
>>138782502
Nyx and Rebecca were fine. Pull the trigger faggot.
>>138782555
Nyx is fine simply because he can act in a niche that neither Lupin or Zenigata can't.
Rebecca was awful and her episodes are easily the weakest.
>>138782502
I've been saying that for years and they have yet to stop doing it.
>>138760412
>tfw haven't watched past the Jigen tooth episode
Kicking myself as I write this

>>138782555
I hope Nyx comes back if they do another movie or special. He was pretty interesting.
>>138774246
>Its REALLY goddamn rare to have a good Goemon episode too.
Really? I like most Goemon centered episodes in all series, it just seems rare to have Goemon centered stories in the first place, and he often doesn't work well as a minor/secondary character.
>>138782502
I liked Rebecca and Nyx. Rebecca doesn't need to come back, but I'd really like more Nyx somehow.
>>138784573
I wish he had been more prominent this series. He had that one episode to himself, but the rest of the time he was just sorta there.
>>138784682
I think that's what the main plot of this show did to pretty much every character that wasn't Lupin or Rebecca.
Is it necessary to watch the older Lupin shows to enjoy this?
I wanted to watch this because it had some bitching cool OP, but when it started it had no subs, so its popularity got quite low, too.
>>138786227
Not really, but you should watch them anyway because they're good. Particularly the first series.
>>138786307
Ok then, into the backlog it goes.
What are the italian exclusive episodes? Ep 24 was the final one right? But on mall it's listed as 26 eps
>>138785802
It feels like Nyx got more screentime than Goemon, It felt like he was only in like three episodes.
>>138787153
That's only because he did get more screentime.
>>138787023
The wikipedia page should have them listed.
>>138787023
Zombie a Venezia, italian episode 6.
Rendez-vous senza fermate, italian episode 23.
>>138788721
Where they too controversial for Japanese TV?
>>138788793
They probably just wanted to give them more incentive to buy the BDs.
I want a new Lupin game.
Will there be second OST?
Because I do not think that the track which played in the last scene was included in the first one.
>>138790696
I thought there already was one.
Are there any good torrents for parts 2–3? I grabbed Horrible's one for part 1, but it's hardsubbed. I think I'll just buy the DVD for that, instead, but there aren't any official releases for the other parts.
>>138792336
If HS has any for those parts you might want to stick with them. Most of the other subs are crabsticks.
Discotek does have a DVD set for part 2 coming soon if you don't mind waiting and spending the dosh.
I wonder if they'll keep the blue jacket next time
>>138792733
Horrible has subs for all of parts 1–3, but I was just put off by the hard subs with low image quality. I really don't mind buying or waiting, though. I was going to buy everything anyway, but I wanted to see if I could get my fix just off the tail of part 4.
Is there any point in getting into Lupin III for the backstory? I mean do things progress?
I quite liked the Mine Fujiko and Jigen Daisuke spinoffs but I'm not sure if I'll enjoy the main series. For the same reason I don't like Conan and other shows, too much fluff. A mandatory watching list might be good too, although I'm already expecting to be shouted at by Lupin purists.
>>138760412
Wait, series should be 26. Not 24
>>138792860
It's episodic.
![[HorribleSubs] Lupin III (2015) - 131 [720p].mkv_snapshot_14.39_[2016.02.24_02.07.52].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/uRCDX29.jpg "[HorribleSubs] Lupin III (2015) - 131 [720p].mkv_snapshot_14.39_[2016.02.24_02.07.52].jpg")
>>138763008
>>138769358
>>138792860
Sorry, I actually read through the thread. So I'm covered for the mandatory watching list. Although I'd still like questions answered.
>>138792860
Part 4 (the one airing now) would be a good transition from Mine and Jigen, while still being in line with the series' general tone. As >>138792925 said, it's episodic, so you can safely jump in pretty much anywhere. I'd say give it a shot. If you haven't already, try the Cagliostro movie for a classic on the exact opposite end of the spectrum.
>>138792925
I understand that, but I want to know if there's a story like Conan and the Black coats.
Is Lupin a one dimensional character (not that it's a bad thing) or is he one of those tragic past type of characters? Stuff like that
I don't want to watch Mine Fujiko spinoff.
>>138793060
Also, forgot to mention this, but there really isn't some grand over-arching backstory to the series. It's all a bunch of vignettes.
>>138793078
He's not really a tragic character at all, at least in the anime, but he is nuanced enough to not be one-dimensional. For the most part, he's a goofy thief who opposes the law at every turn but who generally has a heart of gold. I think the best episodes are those that pull something slightly novel out of the characters, either by showing some unexplored aspect or by shining something that was well-known in a different light. The character might change much, but there's still a ton of flexibility and room to explore things. Lupin's only about as good his its situations and how well they're tailored to testing the characters, however that happens to be with a given episode.
>>138793291
*might not change much
>>138793190
Then don't.
So blue lupin ended?
>>138793078
Sometimes I feel like Conan might be better without an ongoing plot. But then again, it'd probably be the same as Kindaichi Case Files without it.
>>138793611
Yes.
>>138793669
How about that?
>>138793820
Two of the episodes are blu-ray only in Japan.
>>138793860
We get it or not?
>>138794039
The NA audience will probably get them eventually when the dub ships out.
>>138794131
I'll wait. Thanks.
>the key visual was an actual episod
The absolute madmen
>>138791745
Was there?
Does anybody have a download link if so?
>>138793190
Skip all the plot related ones. Makes it considerably better. It had a great style, visual direction and OST going for it. But the Owl shit was really fucking bad and tainted the good points.
>>138798123
Different anon, but I heard all of the best episodes are those without Fujiko in them. Is that true, more or less?
>>138798363
No, the first episode was good.
Little behind, but I just finished the life support and Japanese investigator episodes. I think those were some of the best episodes so far, and I thought the former especially was really well done.
holy shit. This thread is still alive? That is a pleasant surprised.
Any news on the english dub?
>>138775289
Naruto is not praised. We all know it's shit and only watch it because it's so bad that it's good.
>>138777808
well the manga itself is so episodic it doesnt really matter what volume to read outside maybe the first couple chapters of the 1st volume
>>138799529
Depends on how recently you looked up info. Nothing new besides what we know the English cast, though we still don't know who'll be taking over as Zenigata.
>>138799569
You'd be surprised.
>>138799520
I really liked the latter. I like when Fujiko gives a fuck about Lupin and I like when the series has parodies of famous literary detectives.
Plus, it was nice to get out Italy for a bit.
Did the Italianon sub the IO episodes?
![[HorribleSubs]_Lupin_III_(2015)_-_24_[1080p].webm](https://i.imgur.com/o0PtOat.jpg "[HorribleSubs]_Lupin_III_(2015)_-_24_[1080p].webm")
Did anyone else watch the ED every single episode?Dame dame
>>138800627
Yes
>>138799756
I heard ZZenigata may be played by doug erholtz which concerns me unless he's just going to voice match OG dub zenigata which should be the case.
>>138775379
If anything she's nicer to him now than she used to be. She only betrays him what, twice?
>>138801314
There wasn't really much of an opportunity for more with Rebecca around.
Lupin is a nice man.
he smiles
Lupin III Part 5

They finally have a proper Halloween and Christmas episodes
Make it happen.
Ah shit, I didn't find this thread until it was almost over.
I went through this series because it was the easiest to find online but I'd been wanting to watch more of Lupin III for a while now. It seems like just a fun, action-y anime with no powerlevel bullshit, romantic subplots or 600 chapter story arcs, which is refreshing given what I normally watch/read.
I've checked out Cagliostro because that's the one that everyone recommends but where else would be a good place to start?
