| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lol this episode had some wacky comedy. The slot machine and Lupin being involved in an experimental-like game is quite strange. It seems the episode really went out to bring out a different style compared to the other episodes although I still find it entertaining enough thanks to Lupin's usual personality. Lupin was a butt monkey lol |
 |
| Hope it gets subbed soon. |
| this episode was pretty weird it felt like I was watching a forgotten or lost episode of lupin III from way back in the day. the way lupin refused to crack the safe and everyone started collecting what he owes them was too funny. I laughed at jigen's plan to make lupin dumber only for fujiko to refuse and instead to do it the old fashion way by hitting him in the head. at least the preview for the next episode looks like it's going back to how it was. I have an actual question was that true what fujiko said about that fish? |
| Operation Make Lupin Dumber! Well this was certainly a weird and wacky pink jacket Lupin outing. I never actually decided if it was supposed to take place in the far past setting of the original pink jacket series or not though. I don't recall seeing any modern computers or cell phones or whatnot, but I may have missed something. Regardless, I guess I'm glad the brothers made out alright, and watching everyone clobber Lupin, or feed him in Goemon's case, to lower his intelligence was humorous. Still, Jigen's initial plan of having Fujiko strip remained the best. Too bad it never happened, but at least Lupin tried in a way only he could. XD Next week, the start of the next arc? That new guy was also in one of the promotional posters iirc so there's a good chance. |
| It really felt like an old crossover episode, but was still entertaining despite its wackiness. |
 |
| This really felt like a pink jacket episode, kinda glad we go back to the blue one next episode though. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Ah yes, the goofy vibe of Part III. It was quite something to see Fujiko, and Jigen bonding over torturing Lupin. The poor guy suffered here, and Goemon didn't even help him. xD I liked the way the dumb brother rooted for Lupin though, he was a nice guy, and fortunately things ended well for him and his brother. These references to Ashita no Joe though, I loved it. |

| It was a really nice throw back. Part III fans are probably really happy to finally see something new from this always forgotten part. Lupin and everyone else were pretty goofy, the plot felt like part III, but maybe because the animation was decent, it ended up reminding part II better, in my opinion. One thing I really liked was how they showed Fujiko and Jigen working together. We don't get to see much of this, even though their dynamics is so interesting. Like, they don't really trust each other, but can work together for the sake of some heist or/and when Lupin needs them to do so. I thought it was really fun how the idea of Fujiko getting naked popped all the time. Was this a way they found to make fun of the fact that Fujiko would appear naked ALL. THE. TIME. in part III? And they even ended up making her soooo cute this episode, the total opposite. I also enjoyed Goemon's parts. Even though he had so little screen time, he was pretty cute and part III like. Such a precious samurai <3 Loved that they showed Jigen's Play Bohz magazine. Thank you u-u One thing I really missed in this episode was some sort of reference to the opening Sexy Adventure. I really wanted to listen a new version of it or the music itself, but well... Also, at first I was excited with the Cagliostro reference, but then I felt it wasn't really necessary..? It would have been better if they had done a reference to something from Pink jacket. Idk, maybe something from the movie or something iconic from one of the 50 episodes (they could have showed that scene with Lupin and Fujiko kissing while falling from the sky with a parachute, since Fujicakes was so cute this ep). Overall, it was nice to watch, even though I think it could have been better. Next episode we will go back to Blue jacket and we will finally see something from Albert. I'm pretty excited, can't wait to see more of the main plot. |
| This was amazing. A return to the style of what is one of my favorite Lupin series (Part III), even if it was a one-off is a joy. Man does Lupin ever look great in the pink jacket, and getting to see the green jacket back for a moment was a nice surprise too. As much as I love this series so far, I really hope that the inevitable part 6 takes an approach like this episode with the one-off stories. |
| this episode is like those funny old classic Lupin shows, love it |
| Now this feels like Lupin |
 |
| Lmao this was a pretty great episode. It's just lowkey, wacky comedy all around with Lupin trying to open a safe by being dumb. Lol'd at Jigen and Fujiko's way of helping by hurting the poor guy. |
 |
| Probably my least favourite of the episodes so far. Luckily now a two parter. |
| I don't know if the reference to Rikiishi from Ashita no Joe makes me happy or sad... Maybe a mix of both. This time we get a laid-back episode to contrast with the previous more serious ones. The episode was pretty dumb but fun nonetheless but could have been better. One thing is certain, Lupin reveals once again why he's the best thief, he can always find a solution even for the dumbest situations. |
Futari wa Milky Holmes was a mistake Yoshii did nothing wrong |
| My favorite episode so far, I couldn't stop laughing I really liked Fujiko in this episode, although I don't like her character at all Goemon's facial expressions were awesome, too bad he didn't have a lot of screen time :( |
| Great episode. Felt just like a classic story from part 2 or 3. I love Fujiko but she was especially cute here with the more playful designs and animation. Her and Jigen getting along is kinda scary, but also adorable. Of course, I figured a few newer viewers wouldn’t vibe with the more cartoony style, but that’s an integral side to Lupin and I’m hoping we get more throwback one-off episodes in the future (and we probably will given all the guest just revealed). |
| I didn't expect that I highly enjoyed this silly episode of Lupin the Third Part V! 5/5. |
 |
| A fun side story in the vain of Lupin Part III; goofy in the best possible way. The cast interacting with one another was definitely the highlight of the episode and the way Lupin cracked the safe was so stupid you can't help but laugh. That said I'm glad this was a one-off, as the overly cartoony style of the Pink Jacket series gets old pretty quickly. I prefer my Lupin with a balance between comedic and serious plot lines thank you. Looks like we're going to see the show start to play its hand next week if next week's preview is anything to go by 😉. grassarm said: I also popped for the reference to Jigen's toothache from Tokyo Crisis aka the Zenigata film..Well I guess you can call it that, either way it's his best story. Yeah seriously, someone needs to tell the guy to lay off the sweets. He was having issues with that in Part IV as well! 😂 |

| Weakest ep so far, felt like a child show all the time |
 |
| Honestly I loved this episode more than the first 5 episodes put together. |
 |
| Man, I had loads of fun watching this episode. Everyone was so goofy this episode. Lmao at Jigen wanting Fujiko to strip. Kinda weird considering Fujiko strips a lot on The Woman called Fujiko Mine spinoff. This authentic feeling is what the first 5 episodes lacked imo. I hope we get more episodes like these |
| Fujiko's like a completely different character here lol |
Dark-Scorpion said: Weakest ep so far, felt like a child show all the time Not edgy enough for you? |
| the episode remembered me those older comical episodes to use and throw!!!! kekeke it was welcome to watch how Lupin took off his clothes and jumped over Fumiko one more time!!!! 300 C.I.?! o_o |
| I mean, if you kill him then yeah, I guess that's a way to get his brain power to zero. lol This really was a fun episode! |
| Ehhhh, a good episode but is not really my type of humor, I gotta give them props of how Old School this episode felt. A nice filler to put between one arc and the other. |
 |
| I must admit I didn't like this episode. I hope the next episodes will be like the 5 first episodes. |
| Welcome back Lupin part 3, I love you <3 I feel like home I remember that episode where Lupin crack safes by not opening it! And ruined the creator's life Thank you for the fanservice I wish the artstyle stays like this xD Guess not well suited for more story-driven Lupin |
"Signature removed"   |
| Good episode! It seems they are starting with a new arc. It doesn't seem like it's a direct continuation after Ami. It's more in line with the old Lupin Part I and II episodes. Even Fujiko brought the hammer which maybe reference from City Hunter's Kaori Hammer antics with Ryo :) I also love how Jigen keeps telling Fujiko to take off her clothes and Lupin wouldn't mind being dumber than ever just to see more of Fujiko XD Anyways, next episode seems to be back to the old Lupin. So can't wait! |
| This episode was out there. It felt like Sunday morning kids Doraemon cartoons or something. Good pace breaker. I'm glad Lupin was stupid enough to be stupid enough. He finally beat that safe. |
| This ep was an absolute chore to get through for me. I'm glad it's just a one-and-done. |
| From the premise revolving around some super safe to the hilariously nonsensical plot, this indeed felt like a pink jacket episode. Just better due to how it was put together, pretty much in a parodic manner. Someone knew their shit. Also loved how other oldies such as Ashita no Joe (barbed wired water tap) and City Hunter (mokkori hammer) were referenced. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Something totally silly, it's not the kind of Lupin I appreciate with all the slapstick and randomness, although I don't mind if there's one episode like this every now and then as a palate cleanser. Nice parody of Ashita no Joe in the training montage though. |
| Until Fujiko spoke with Sawashiro's voice, I was wondering if maybe that was a lost episode of Part III that was found and updated. Would explain the random art change to one of 35+ years prior. If I recall, from binging all Lupin part and the 43 movies/ovas, the Greater Tokyo Bank is one Lupins done a few times, starting when it was a small one storey building. |
| The line below is True. The line above is False. |
| This is the Lupin I know and love. The randomness is something that was missing from the previous part and even if it was just a callback episode, it was really well done. Of course, I know that we will get back to the actual plot in the following episodes, but it would be nice to see episodic Lupin once again. |
| This was a really stupid episode, even by Lupin standards. The Cagliostro reference was nice. |
