| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Second part of the Italian Dream episode. A lot of focus of Rebecca's past and the revelation about her boyfriend's project. Nix now is a serious villain, this episode looks like the end of part 1 of this series. It was really a strong story, even if I feel that the science was too far fetched. |
 |
| Didn't like a lot this arc and I found it stupid. I mean...I was thinking "WTF" while Lupin was dreaming. Meh arc. |
| I like Rebecca a lot more after this arc but I'm glad this was a midseason reveal instead of a finale |
 |
| I wonder why not many people follow this series. I mean, this discussion section is desert. |
| so the Italian Dream is about mind control technology by that neuroscientist boyfriend of Rebecca eh |
| Japanese Episode 12 A very packed episode this week as we conclude(I think) Rebecca's arc. The first half with Lupin in the dream world seeing Rebecca's past through Kou's subconscious left in the book was very trippy. So we learn what he was doing, what his research entailed, and why MI6 was after him. Then it turns a bit into an action film as Nyx pursues Lupin and Rebecca. No surprise but their marriage was never made official. I'm a bit surprised and saddened we seem to be pretty much done with her so soon though. If I didn't see her in the preview I'd think this was her last appearance. :( We learn more about Nyx too, and he and Lupin are captured. I hope/think he wasn't killed. Unless the series really is going in a completely new direction, which it might, the only way I see this Italia Dream plot continuing is if Nyx somehow immediately memorized at least some of Kou's research before the fire consumed it all. I may be looking into it too much, but I kinda got that impression. Guess we'll see. Well I guess I got my wish regarding Zenigata as he saves/captures Lupin. Next week looks promising, love seeing those two interact. :D Oh, and Nyx was 007? Nice :D Oh, and nice Star Wars poster in the background. Certainly fitting for today. :D |

ghosts said: I like Rebecca a lot more after this arc but I'm glad this was a midseason reveal instead of a finale Me too. At first, I found Rebecca's personality to be childish and hard to take seriously but now I have much more interest about her future role for the rest of the season. Great background storytelling this episode.  |

| I knew it, like a few others the ep has been advanced. Loved this ep, so much to take in, but per the show I can see what happens next, go monkey. |
| Y does mal set the anime as finished |

| Change in the intro!!! And Lupin in the jail!! What?... -- ¡Cambio en la entradilla y Lupin en la carcel! ¿Qué?... |
| I was watching the English dub on Toonami and noticed something odd. The captions would say Wataru (referring to Rebecca's deceased love), but the spoken line would be "Ko" (or probably "Kou"). What's up with that? |
 |
| Haha this escape reminds me of part 1 escape where he stayed at prison for entire year Just to humiliate Zenigata Aww I guess this is still the same Zenigata, he cared for Lupin He loved Lupin (he totally said that) xD But without his old voice, it's not the same :( The eyecatch.. it's Pycal? I just love Lupin & Zenigata's relationship |
"Signature removed"   |
| A superb episode, and a nice reference to that one episode from Part I. This isn't even my first time watching this, but it still almost moved me to tears. Of course Lupin would be fine, but it was hard to watch him "wasting away", and the effect it had on Zenigata. He has been more serious than usual in this part, but his essence was clearly here this time. I guess it was hard for Jigen, Goemon, Fujiko, and especially for Rebecca, who doesn't know Lupin as well as the other three, to just wait like that, without doing anything. But it also shows how much they trust him. They worried, and I'm sure that they felt like going and helping him more than once, but they waited for him. And of course, Lupin had the whole thing under control from the start, he cannot be contained. Welp, it was great. The stalkers, I mean, agents assigned to Goemon and Fujiko sure had a great view though. lol |

| Lupin and Zeni are brothers who go way back and of course Lupin would exploit that fact. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Japanese ep. 13, Italian 14. We've rarely seen an episode so much focused on character exploration, specifically the relationship between Lupin and Zenigata. As such it was great, even if the result was obvious from the start. It's an interesting question: since Zenigata's identity is so much wrapped up in chasing Lupin and never catching him, does he truly want to accomplish his goal in the first place? |
