Lupin thread? Lupin thread. Episode 12 is out, first cour finale.

>>134923655
No japenese subs yet.

>>134924287
Well, it's the next best thing. Even if the subs are based on a dub it's pretty literal and they're corrected to account for the japanese.

How is this Lupin, anyways?

>>134924883
I like it a lot, many character driven episodes like Mine Fujiko but with none of the pretentiousness, red jacket-style goofy but serious when it needs to be. Also, overarching plot.

Nobody?

>>134923655
Damn, didn't even know this had finally gone into production. Guess I'll just wait until there's reliable eng subs, though.

>>134923655
Why aren't more subgroups picking this up?
Pretty silly to have dl the subs and eps separately

>>134926623
It's not getting licensed though.

Shout-out to Italianbro for his hard work.

>>134924883
It's definitely my AOTY. It's definitely striking a strong balance between every tone that Lupin's ever had. It's adventurous and whimsical without being too soft or too goofy, and there's an edge to it without being overwhelming or bleak.

So, Discotek just announced that they are going to release all of the red jacket series on DVD.

Hopefully somebody will make an easily downloadable batch now, because I gave up trying to keep up with the subfuckery after 3 episodes.

Last thing I ever spent money on that was anime related was Lupin DVDs over a decade ago.

This could be the thing to break my dry spell.

>>134927957
Netflix could surprise us. They always announce these licensing deals late. Like after the anime finishes airing in Japan late.

Lupin of all fucking things not being picked up for simulcast? There's something fishy going on.

So this is a shitshow to try and get subs for. Any helpful /a/nons know of a good subgroup doing this?

>>134928477
The Man They Called itali/a/non?

>>134928477
none besides one Italian /a/non

Would be nice if more sub groups would pick this up that way more content could be generated from these threads

>>134928368
The whole thing has been on CR since December 8th and I assume it has been ripped already.

Still, I'm gonna buy this. Especially if they include interviews along with it.

>>134928683
Fansubbing is dead. Only time you'll ever see multiple subgroups in action these days is if there's a simulcast to rip from.

>>134928683
I think /a/ is at that point where only series that get subtitles right after the episode airs in Japan are going to get much coverage.

You know I really thought they were going to fuck up the series. Fujiko was a nice departure, but green/red jacket Lupin was the heart of the series. I happen to love everything Italian and frankly I think this series does a FANTASTIC job of bringing lupin into the modern times.

>>134924287
Beggars can't be choosers anon.

>>134924883
Would be the uncontested AOTY if more people had watched it. The lack of subs means there are hardly any threads though, but the music, animation as well as the overrall structure of each episode are fucking stellar.

>>134927698
Not a whole lot of interest, sadly.

When does the japanese dub start releasing?

AOTY

>>134932803
it already has. It started the first of October, and is still ongoing in japan. They've got 2 episodes left, I believe.

>>134932660
I think the other thing to consider are the folks that have never seen anything Lupin III and think they have to in order to get this one.

>>134932881
then this no japanese sub issue is ridiculous. No excuses.

>>134932881
>They've got 2 episodes left, I believe.

Shouldn't they have more than that? There's 26 episodes in all.

It's good and fun but it feels like it could be better if it was more daring. The best episodes so far are Jigen's (the one with the doctor lady) and Goemon's (the one with the assassin girl).

>>134932915
For this one? Nah. They would enjoy the winks and references, but Lupin's always episodic in nature. This and Fujiko to iuna are the only ones that have had an overarching plot throughout the season.
Newcomers might not realize that though. In that regard, I think you're right.

>>134932930
Beggars can't be choosers anon.

>>134933264
I meant aired. They've aired 24 episodes, and have 2 left to air.
It's still ongoing in Japan.

I've only seen the subbed episodes:
Assassin girl > Doctor girl > Nix daughter > Ghost loli > that woman Zenigata protected > Rebbecca > Fujiko

>>134933415
Wait a minute, I'm confused. They've only aired 12 episodes in Japan.

>>134933648
Italy is airing the show before Japan does, they're on episode 24.

>>134933718
Oh, okay then. I forgot about that entirely.

Yeah, those are the folks that I am referring to. There are people that get interested enough to ask though.

So is Lupin III (2015) and the Fujiko one the only series with overarching plots? I'm pretty new to Lupin overall

>>134936441
Pretty much. Hopefully that doesn't put you off.

Lupin thrives best off of the variety that being episodic in nature allows, in my opinion.

Fuck off, Shittimatsu.


Thank you, awesome Itali/a/non for your hard work.

I'm watching the red jacket series right now.

Honestly, I miss the days when Goemon cried during a kabuki play and got violently upset when the others made fun of him.
