With Lupin Part II being released on DVD today, lets have a good ol' Lupin thread.
Goemon film comes out next month in Japanese theaters.
Blue Jacket Blu Ray coming out in the next couple of months
Not to mention it's the 50th anniversary for the worlds greatest thief. How will you be celebrating?
also I notice a lot of people come to these threads who want to get into Lupin but don't know where to start so here is what I suggest you watch.
(Green) First series - (Watch all of it}
(Red) Second series - (Watch some of it)
(Pink) Third Series - (Watch some of it)
(Blue) Forth Series - (Watch all of it)
once you've seen enough of the red jacket series, feel free to start the movies. all of the series is episodic for the most part so their isn't a main storyline that needs to be followed until you get to part 4. Anyway here are the movies you should watch in this exact order once you have seen enough of red jacket.
Mystery of Mamo
Castle of Cagliostro
Legend of the Gold Babylon
Fuma Conspiracy
Hemingway Papers
In Memory of Walther P38
Missed by a Dollar
when you're done with these, feel free to watch the rest of the movies however you like. I have left out some other good films but these ones are essential.
once you have finished with all you wanted to see, check out the Fujiko Mine spinoff series to see if you like it. It serves as a prequel to the green jacket series but it does have a main story as well as being episodic so you may need to watch all of it. Be aware it is darker in tone. Once you have finished that, watch it's sequel OVAs which is called Jigen's Gravestone. once you have finished Jigen's Gravestone watch it's sequel film Blood Spray of Goemon which comes out on February 4th.
Everything comes full circle. Hope this helps.
come on people. Rupan Sansei

Maybe don't repost the same stuff and try something else if you want the thread to run a bit longer.

guess i'll give up. it is late.
ok 1 more.
I read the a few volumes of the monkeypunch manga recently and wow I love how sleazy lupin is in those. I also love how adversarial the main four are. Lupin and Jigan are the only consistent "friends" but even then Jigan admits to be willing to kill lupin if the price was right. I wish the original anime played this up more. I watched the last movie and really liked it, is the fujiko-centric show good?

Seriously, dude. If you wanna make a Lupin thread, you gotta give us something to discuss.

Lupin Manga is incredibly fun .
Fujiko spinoff is great for the episodes that dont focus on the main story. The episodic ones are amazing. Also some of the best art in all of anime.
