| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Easily my favorite episode so far and the first one I can really consider "great." Lupin trolled Zenigata so hard at the end there. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| I'll agree; this is the best comedy episode so far. It made great use of Zenigata, the pacing was great and lots of Monkey Punch's toothy goof-faces. |
| Zenigata was the star this time around. It was good to see he got a lot of screen time this epsode. |
 |
| By far, my favorite episode so far. |
| HA! Third time is always the charm. |
 |
| Zenigata definitely stepped up his game. Hope to see him push the Lupin team more like this. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| We all agree on this one then! Enjoyed the hell out that. Lot of great small touches too. Love the way Lupin backrolled off the chair, looking like a shifty gymnast |
| A+! |
| I'm impressed at how funny this anime is to me, considering its age. Zenigata is so endearing. His and Lupin's rivalry is hilarious! |
hysterical_ said: The only thing I'm baffled about is whether or not if the police remembers that the 'drunk' man who is Lupin in disguise, had disappeared from the same prison Zenigata threw Lupin into. Well, doesn't really matter in this case since it was needed for Lupin's plan to work out. It's just funny how they don't really seems to question about it. My guess is that they let the "drunk" go after he sobered up. |

My guess is that they let the "drunk" go after he sobered up. Yeah this. They actually said that explicitly in the episode, least with the Crunchyroll subs. Anyway, not my favorite, not the biggest fan of Zenigata honestly but this kinda felt like the quintessential Lupin III episode. Pretty much what I suspected from the series from the get-go. A really fun caper making good use of the cast dynamics. My favorite part was either them visiting Zenigata on the plane or Jigen guessing correctly that he'd be a truck driver. |
| That must have been a long plane ride to Europe,Lupin completely duped him. |
| Never drop your guard till the end Except this one Zenigata dropped his guard after the end He didn't know there's other end xD Kinda reminds me of Liar game Where they tricked a guy counting his money because he thought it's the end |
"Signature removed"   |
| Really nice episode with the whole gang working together again! Zenigata really gave them trouble this time around, but Fujiko's idea of using Lupin's capture to make him go away worked, and they got the ugly treasure with no trouble after it. Lupin was really mean sending Zenigata off like that though. Now the poor man won't be able to enjoy his time in Europe. xD At least he got some fame and acknowledgement. lol |
 |
| This one had more of the jazzy influence with the backing music throughout. |
 |
| lol my favorite episode so far. I feel too bad for Zenigata, he just loves doing his job. But in the end, it was four minds against one. Zenigata was real bamboozled at the end. He's going to have some bitter times at Europe knowing his nemesis is free. |
| This episode was fantastic! I think this was the first time I saw Zenigata without his hat on. I love that they're all working together. Goemon always has something profound to say. There's a pretty epic camera angle with Lupin in the hole and Zenigata standing on top of the bars. Then Zenigata's wacky victory march is hilarious. |
| Another episode that is remembered for the daring action and for the genius shown by the character of Lupin in stealing the golden bust. but this episode is also remembered because Zenigata apparently manages to arrest Lupin and for the first time takes off the legendary hat that he always wears on his head, wow! The comedy is excellent also in this episode, narratively the story is always hasty and tight. This time Jigen and Goemon appear a lot more than in the previous episode, and this makes me very happy. One aspect that caught my interest during the episode is when Jigen takes off his miner's helmet and was already wearing the trucker one, you see how Lupin and Jigen are tied by a strong bond, they understand each other on the fly. |
 |
| Jesus Lupin, showing up at his moment of triumph just to steal it away from him was a bit cruel |
 |
| Yet another perfect episode. This series is becoming really enjoyable to watch. |
Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| This should've been the last episode. |
 |
| Another good one. The animation is becoming more wacky and zany, facial expressions are goofier, and the voice acting is more expressive as well. Two episodes in a row where I enjoyed Zenigata the most. |
