LUPIN III VS CATS EYE SCREENSHOT REDRAW

GAY PEOPLE SPOTTED

I love the fact that voice actors related to Lupin Series were cast as Arsène Lupin and Lupin II.

Yoshito Yasuhara as Arsène Lupin

- He admired Yasuo Yamada who acted as Lupin III from the first TV series when he was in the same theatre company. Actually, he was almost decided as a successor after Yamada-san passed away in 1995. He also performed as Toshio in “Lupin III VS Cat’s Eye” for the first time in a while. (For me, he is Captain Hastings in ITV’s Poirot of the Japanese dub version.)

Toshio Furukawa as Lupin II

- He performed as Lupin III in “Fuma Conspiracy” in 1987 but he was heavily criticised by audiences since the casting was changed in the film from the original TV series. Nowadays, it has been once again recognized and he commented when he got the role of Lupin II in Lupin Zero: ‘I’m proud of myself for taking part of such a big famous series like Lupin III TWICE!’ (He is well known as Piccolo in Dragon Ball and Ataru in Urusei Yatsura etc…)

Ryo Saeba is in Lupin III vs. Cats Eye.

This means that Lupin, Cats Eye, City Hunter and Detective Conan exists in the same universe.

I don't make the rules, I just post them.

oh, i love this look

I have now watched Lupin III VS Cat's Eye. Read of my thoughts.

It was fun! I had a good time!

I was cautiously optimistic leading up to the release and then much more excited when I read other people's reactions to it. I really enjoyed it myself!

(more spoilery points under the cut)

The animation... is what it is. It definitely looked better in some scenes than others but on the whole I didn't think it was too bad. I do have to wonder what their budget for this one was though.

There's a flashback sequence in this movie that uses 2D stills and I wish the whole movie looked like it

Apparently for the music they reused a lot of tracks from Parts 4 and 5 and I could really tell. I'm not gonna fault them for that though cause we're still not sure what Yuji Ohno's health status is. Besides, the music is really good, so I'm not complaining.

The new version of the Cat's Eye theme they played over the credits was great too! I love that song 😊

lupin honey how are you still alive after all that holy shit

Dude should've died like three times in this movie

At least there were lasting ramifications this time! The whole "him having impaired vision" thing was really interesting

Lupin's friendship with Ai was really adorable. From the promotional stuff I was expecting a lot more scenes between him and Hitomi but they might've just been together on the poster cause Hitomi's the leader.

TOSHIO AND ZENIGATA BONDING YES YES YES THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED THANK YOU TMS (even though they kinda did fuck all in the movie itself)

Same with Fujiko! I was hoping there'd be more scenes between her and the Cats but nope!

can someone please explain to me why zantetsuken broke at the end like whyyyyyyy

This is very much Lupin's story; the rest of the cast are just kinda there (same with Ai on the Cat's Eye front). I did like that they established a connection between Lupin and the Cats' dad though. Wasn't expecting that!

(Was their mom ever mentioned in the series? I'm only up to episode 8 as I'm writing this)

TOTALLY called the art dealer dude betraying them

why is it always nazis with you people

I swear the last two movies in this franchise have both involved Nazis can we please go one movie without the bad guys being Nazis goddammit

I watched this movie dubbed and it was... awkward. I mean, the voices themselves were fine (hell, it's the Epcar cast) but I just don't think they matched with the animation very well. Maybe it's cause of the direction, maybe it's the lipsync being REALLY off, I don't know. Definitely wanna rewatch it subbed at some point.

The voices for the Cats were great though! Cristina Vee is always a welcome addition and Deneen Melody and Alicyn Packard were great too!

All in all I had a great time with this one! If you can get past the animation this is a really entertaining movie. And now to wait for it to never get a Blu-ray release because Amazon is the worst!

In celebration the 50th anniversary of Lupin III and the 40th anniversary of Cat's Eye, our favorite master thief Lupin III by Monkey Punch goes head-to-head with our favorite art-thieving trio of the Kisugi sisters - Hitomi, Rui and Ai - from the anime/manga series by the creator that brought you City Hunter, Tsukasa Hojo!

Lupin went toe-to-toe with Detective Conan Edogawa from Case Closed, another anime/manga series produced by TMS, in their two respective crossovers

The Kisugi sisters from Cat's Eye appeared in City Hunter: Shinjuku Private Eyes

The crossover may take place in 1980s, the time when Cat's Eye first aired, while Lupin dons his pink jacket from Part III

You know I expected not to like the limited animation style of Lupin vs Cat’s Eye, but so far I feel like I’m watching a Lupin episode of Archer, and you know what?

I am HERE for it.

[domidextrus]

So I skimmed through the Cat's Eye crossover ONA out of curiosity (read: for the moments that Lupin's on-screen) and SWEET TAPDANCING LORD the writers really whumped his ass hard past the halfway point! Not even Castle of Cagliostro went that hard on the "Lupin gets gravely injured" swerve. He has a bloody eye for several scenes, his vision is impaired for the rest of the story, and for an encore he's also subjected to electroshock torture and suffers two bullets to the chest from the big bad. In his last scene he's limping and covered in bloodstains. I normally don't get this protective over Lupin since he has gone through arguably worse injuries, but in this case I can't help but scream PLEASE SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN SOME IODINE!

I do like how they wove Lupin into Michael Heinz's backstory as having worked together with him in the past to help him reclaim the paintings from the nazi forces. It certainly makes the eventual team-up against the real threat carry more weight than it did in the Detective Conan crossovers.

[landofartandcraft]

So i watched the lupin iii vs cat's eyes and ...

Yeah it was really good like i was enjoying it genuinely even with the cgi animation (i really really despised it, it was so hard top watch BUT)

I mean yes there was some cliché i don't want to see anymore (nazis again, jigen and goemon "leaving" ...) but... I cared about lupin's fate?

I mean i was genuinely worried? Because it was so violent ? I love it! (damn my guy had his ass kicked in this movie)

Also i loved the interaction between the gang and my girls!!! Specially ai and lupin and zenigatta and toshi.

I almost forgot the animation ! Almost. Yeah no i was wishing it was 2D during the all thing but at least it was good so go watch it!

[enfrigginfuego]

The new movie needed a little coda, I thought, so I wrote one. Have some comfort after all that.

[cringecompilationin480p]

lupin being like "dont worry my head injury isnt that bad" you were slammed by a cargo car underwater which you are LUCKY didnt immediately shatter your spine and kill you AND you have severely impaired vision. how to tell this clown that that's a traumatic brain injury.
