Italian, the 'no subs' gave me no choice. Well, no regrets, it's a strong dub.
Jigen gets tortured on a cross by an MI6 agent who looks like an older James Bond.
Rebecca is back with another (fake) love interest.
Lupin and Fujiko are great partners in crime.

I loved that the Count of Cagliostro was referenced multiple times in this episode, and was relevant to the stolen item. It makes it feel less random and more precise on Lupin's part. There was also a lot of interesting play between the concepts of killing for your country, dying for love, and such.

Vengeance of everyone's grudge.

Poor Jigen took quite the punishment. Of course in the end he and Lupin survive. That Nix seems rather confident...

that Nix agent sure is a fearsome foe for Lupins gang, and now lets see what this Jigen episode is all about on the next episode

Nix looks like Daniel Craig LOL I wonder if it was intentional.

Nix sounds like a dope name tbh.

Loved Lupin in action as usual.
I hope Rebecca gets a more prominent role later this season.

Damn this Nix guy of MI6 is really impressive =o I like this guy a lot....Poor Jigen got rekt though lol

The theft and buildup to it was all really great to see and I enjoyed seeing Lupin go up against Nix etc....We got to see Rebecca again too :D

I like that the MI6 guys are being set up for another story arc so I can't wait to see this Italian Dream stuff play out...Also Fujiko and Lupin should just get married and fuck already xD The OTP needs to take off!!!!

Not if you're German because it means 'nothing'. I read your post and got confused. :D

I agree with the first comment-- I love the colors in this series! The settings too, this feels so much more "Lupin III" to me than the Fujiko series that aired last year.

It's a bit disappointing, between the bad drawing and the boring frames, make Lupin petty thief.

Es un poco decepcionante, entre el pésimo dibujo y las aburridas tramas, hacen de Lupin un ladrón de poca monta.

So they did a whole Episode on the Queen's Necklace and never mentioned it's importance to the original Arsene Lupin's lore. Quite disappointing.

Rebecca is back.
Jigen got caught.
He found Lupin.
This dude dodging the bullets like he in the matrix.
For the woman he loves?
Fireworks.
The prince is a pussy.
Lupin used Rebecca.
Lupin is with Fujiko.
The Dream of Italia?

I remember that guy who can dodge bullets from part 3
I guess same trick could work but not until later?
Don't like this MI6 guy, I prefer Zenigata, where's my "Rupaaan Rupaann" scream? :(

I can't care enough for Rebecca or this Nix
Kinda disappointed
Maybe they'll be like Zenigata from annoying become lovely.. maybe not

Nyx is great, and an "enemy" who cannot be underestimated. Jigen suffered here, but Lupin "won" after betting with his own life. All for the sake of his very own Marie Antoinette. He even used Rebecca, but I guess the thrills he provided with that setup weren't enough for her. xD But MI6 and the "Italian Dream", huh. An overarching story is being born and I love it.

Jigen getting tied to a cross reminded of that episode from part 2 where it happened to Goemon.

And once again the "last" cigarette saved their lives, a classic.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I didn't like the early episode, too much chasing, but in the end I was delighted when Lupin's plan was finally revealed, it was funny and surprising, being so out there. Also nice to see that the elaborate plan didn't result in Fujiko reaping the rewards.

So far the addition of Rebecca has been pretty good, she's added a bit of zest to the series without changing the original setup or characters too much,

Miyuki Sawashiro and Yukiyo Fujii are the same age yet the first one fits Fujiko pretty well, while the second gives off the "annoying anime girl" vibe with her voice. Didn't like that. And the chase was a bit dragging.

Also what's with those weird zoom-ins on Nix lol

Jigen's capture seemed like a callback to a similar scene in Mamo.

By the way, the age of the English prince (they used a real name of one of the princes) + MI6's technology suggests that the series is set in the near future, 2020s-2030s or something.
