Look in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a UFO! Great look back at Superman during a period of his greatest appeal.

Overall a very creative, whimsical episode with a neat political and economical premise. Fujiko is still very much a babe, and Goemon is still very much a badass.

Superman?

Mummies, okay. Dragon Palace, sure. Time traveling, no problem. But Superman? I have no idea why this weirded me out the most of all the shenanigans so far.

In which Lupin faces Superman! Okay so...is Superman a real person in the Lupinverse? Cause even though the one Lupin faced was phony the citizens react throughout the episode as if it's normal to see him. Well seeing the other Lupin characters in the getup was fun. Lupin and Zenigata were funny enough, but Fujiko at the end legit surprised me and gave me a good laugh. Speaking of, I'm not entirely sure what her plan that Lupin ruined was. The phony Superman always returned the stolen money right? So what did she get out of this, aside from helping a random store? Regardless, Lupin's bra stealing game remained as impressive as ever:

Incidentally, Zenigata's throw away line about American police being too quick to shoot people rings sadly true nearly 40 years later.

I'm a little surprised Lupin wasn't more gaga over Superman, especially 2 episodes earlier where he was raving about him and the movie.

The quintuplets were hot. A pity their little family business was doomed because of the bigger, and stronger competition. But well, they crossed Lupin's way and were caught. I just don't understand why Fujiko got mad at Lupin in the end, I thought she would be disappearing with the money they stole from the banks as soon as the quintuplets and their father went for the supermarket, but at least we got to see a Super Fujiko slicing down buildings with the Zantetsuken as she chased the Super Ecchi, I mean, Super Lupin, and that was certainly something. xD

I bet Fujiko doesn't defeat Goemon in a sword fight only because she doesn't want to.
