The new theatrical Lupin the Third Film Blood Spray of Goemon will be released in Japan on February 4th. I will be making Lupin threads a few times a week leading up to the release.
The film is a sequel to the Fujiko Mine spin-off series and the Jigen's Gravstone OVAs. It will mark the debut of BLACK Jacket Lupin. i will post the most recent footage.

I typically see a lot of recommendations for these Lupin threads from people who want to get into Lupin but don't know where to start so here are my suggestions for how to go about that.
Green jacket series - (watch all)
Red jacket series - (watch some episodes. dont need to watch all. its episodic with no realy story)
Pink Jacket - (see red)
Blue Jacket (watch all)
then watch these movies in this order
Mystery of Mamo
Castle of Cagliostro
Legend of the Gold Babylon
Fuma Conspiracy
Hemingway Papers
In Memory of Walther P-38
Missed By a Dollar
side note. feel free to start watching the movies after you've seen at least a few episodes of red jacket. you dont need to watch all the series 1st before checking out the movies. just watch some of the series to get a feel of the general tone
after that check out the Fujiko spin-off series and see if you like it. then watch the sequel OVAs which is Jigen's Gravestone (which everyone loves)
after all that feel free to check out the rest of the movies, the ones that are listed above are essential and should come 1st, but there are other good ones.
also dont forget to pick your favorite Lupin design. It is tradition after all.
2015 was the most fun I've had in a long time. Hope they make another series alike.
Although the Da Vinci plot got a little weird in the end.

the threads were great too. some of those episodes were really top quality in terms of writing. dont think ive ever read a bad post.
guys?
If it's as good as Jigen's Gravestone i'm going to love it.
Getting Hype.

I feel as if they're adding more character elements which I think could be real refreshing. Plus its the length of a feature film which was one of the problems with jigen's gravestone. it should of been a movie instead of 2 OVAs was only 50 minutes so it felt a little rushed.
also found this image in the thread yesterday. apparently its the back of a promotional poster. what is that thing in Lupin's arm? some anone said it could be a blade?
anyone?
