Wow. I forgot to mention a theatrical film starring Goemon will be out in theaters in February. It is a sequel to the Fujiko Mine Series and Jigen's Gravestone

>classic adult swim dub

Awesome. One of the few really great dubs.

is the 2015 series any good? I only watched the first 3-4 episodes that got translated when it was first airing.

>>149293357
I liked it a whole lot. Some people complained that the ongoing plot part was really retarded and it sort of was, but it was still fun, and the other non-plot stuff is as Lupin as ever.

I'm super excited about the old dub cast reprising their roles. I held off on watching blue jacket subbed just so I could enjoy the dub more.

>>149293433
great will download and watch tomorrow thanks man

>tfw the only one who liked Mine Fujiko

>>149292290
lupin is my shit. this brings me pleasure.
love me some nice man

>>149293357
It's great. I'd say it's the 2nd best series after green jacket.

>>149293656
>green jacket the best
>not red

>>149293357
its as good as green jacket, but in different ways

>>149293594
Most people actually really like it. Was a refreshing gritty take with amazing art. It also had some of the best episodes of the entire franchise.

>>149293536
Don't. Buy that shit when it comes out on BD. gotta support Lupin.

>>149293357
It was pretty good. Probably would have been even better if they could have gotten away with not having a central plot.

>>149293712
Honestly, he should see if he likes it before buying it.

>>149293678
Green just had the best set of episodes. Red jacket had lots of great ones but also a lot of crappy ones. Green Jacket is more consistent and is Yalu considered the best out of the series.

>>149293687
>It also had some of the best episodes of the entire franchise.

I dunno, there were more episodes that I thought were meh than great. I liked it, but the only ones that really stood out to me were the origin episodes and the tattoo'd girl where Fujiko goes crazy.

>>149292290
Lupin is pretty sexy desu.

>>149293781
>not mentioning the phantom of the opera episode

Also do you consider the 1st episode to be an origin because that one was great too.

>>149293828
Yea, and the opera one was great.

>>149293828
Dying day and drug trip episode I remember being pretty dope

So, where would I go to watch Green Jacket?

I want to start this series from the beginning.

>>149293988
Buy it. There are 2 versions out on DVD.

>>149293988
Buy the DVDs from Discotek.

Stream the series on CrunchyRoll.

Get the BDs off of nyaa.

And more options.

>>149294154
The fuck is nyaa and how are their prices? Usually get my stuff off rightstuf (since discotek doesn't sell directly from their website anymore which is a shame). Rightstuf is alright though. nyaa any better?

Ah it's a torrent. How was I suppose to know.. I buy everything I want to watch

>>149294154

Not everyone is a richfag anon, but even then I would assume you at least knew what nyaa was or at least seen it mentioned here, assuming you ain't a newfag.

Anyways, Part 2 has been a blast as I approach the last 10 episodes. Was Part 3 canned for low quality or just lack of interest from Japanese audiences?

>>149294910
Part 3 lasted pretty long. 50 episodes to be exact. The quality was very high. More so than the previous 2 series, people didnt like the overly cartoony zanyness of it, but it was still just as good as part 2. Just more exaggerated and silly.

>>149294895
Which one you think is better in bed?

Also I'm gonna go with dub because of nostalgia and the fact that yasuo yamada (best lupin) died in 1995 so I don't feel bad not watch the sub version. Plus if I'm paying extra for the dub, might as well watch it.

I will never not pick Fujiko.

>>149293594

Aside from the lackluster and kinda retarded ending (which is typical for long form Lupin mystery plots), it was pretty good on individual episode basis.
>Oscar
>Gritty Zenigata
>More focus on Fujiko, which we've been needing
>Gorgeous visuals
>Very fun isolated episodes with plenty of variety

>>149295486
>not picking Zenigata

>>149295601
I felt Zenigata was too gritty to the point where it ft bland. I'd say that's one of the negatives.

>>149295639

I took it as a refreshing change since most of the last movies before Goro died had Zenigata only appear for like ten minutes and do basically jackshit, he was just there because he's part of the brand. Making him more adversarial and asshole at least something new with him after all this time of being a goofy comedic relief.

>>149295822
He can be goofy and cool at the same time. He had no personality in the Fujiko series. Even lupin managed to be his silly self even with all the grittiness around him.

>>149295486
my favorite Fujiko design

>>149295486
Well now we know so much about her are you sure it'd even be worth it? She's screwed Zenigata for fuck's sake.

I'm 23 episodes or so into the red coat series, and I have to say, it's really fucking good. I love the Miyazaki episodes, but they get to be almost a bit too PG for how I envision Lupin. Red coat series seems to rectify that a bit, keeping the goofy nature of the series while actually showing people die, developing lupin and fujiko's relationship, and just a slightly more gritty side.

>>149297533
The 2nd half of green jacket (Miyazaki episodes) were the best of that series though. Red jacket is funner and the character have more life, but the plots tend to be just dumb a lot of the time. The later episodes of red jacket is when it gets really good. Plus the quality is much higher compared to the early episodes which looked cheaper than green jacket which came out 6 or 7 years before. The episodes that stand out the most for me were the Egyptian possessed lupin episode and the 2 Miyazaki episodes at the end which are noticeably of much higher quality and much more adventurous.

What a stupid question.

>>149292290
bump

>>149293594
I liked it too, mainly because I'm a huge Koikefag.
Oskar was a mistake tho.

>>149293030
>>149293166
Awesome

>>149292290
I'm torn on Jigen. Epcar works for the character, but I love the less gruff, older Japanese voice. Part of me would be curious to see if Dan Woren (Jigen's Gravestone) would work better with some more adjustments. I think he's the closest an English actor has gotten.

>>149293166
Do we know anything about it yet?

What? Mine Fujiko is liked by most plebs in fact it might be the most entry level Lupin series after Castle of Cagliostro except not nearly as good.
>>149293687
>refreshing gritty take
Lupin has done gritty before and much better than that. If Episode Zero was The Batmn Begins of the franchise than Woman Called Fujiko is the Batman v Superman.
>It also had some of the best episodes of the entire franchise.
....I got nothing.
>>149293828
>>149293878
>The episode where Zenigata fucks Fujiko and then actively tries to kill him
Yeah nah.
