Lupin III Chapter 88 Review
Its hard doing manga reviews
BECAUSE MAN, THE FIRST HALF OF THIS CHAPTER SUCKS. Finally gonna give a content warning for: torture, child murder, rape, and zenigata slander please read this review with discretions thank you
Tumblr media
I'm just gonna get this over with
So in this chapter, "Lupin and Jigen" capture this guy from the special police task force and basically tortures him until he tells them his true identity.
Lupin's been told to do this from a mysterious shadowed man we never really knew the identity of but he basically tells Lupin that he's being too soft and he tells Lupin to bring the police's son and kill him in front of his dad. So he reluctantly does it, the child gets washed away in the sewer water and gets horribly electrocuted by a wire. yayy.....
Tumblr media
So the police guy is very reasonably angry and goes on what is apparently a "blood rage" and smashes Lupin and Jigen with a chained mace i think? Then Lupin finally knocks him unconscious and leaves him there
Then a mysterious woman whos presumed to be working for that guy rescues him from the sewer
Soon after, the woman's fiance returns home and proposes to her and she accept, hm how sweet. Then of course, Lupin comes out of nowhere to ruin everything.
Tumblr media
He rips the women out of her fiance's arms and suddenly kisses her and threatens to rape her if she doesn't spill out where the man she rescued and what his identity is ..
She tries to resist and the fiance tells her to just confess the truth to Lupin, which she doesn't and Lupin rapes her :(
I told you, really rough chapter... honestly i doubt anybody's reading this lol
Lupin then just leaves and the fiance gets really pissed at her for not resisting and just telling the truth??? Bro get mad at the rapist not the victim this dude is crazy. And then he leaves probably breakng off from her
Tumblr media
The woman is distraught but is approached by the police man who probably found her after that incident. He tells her that he's the one she saved and to dress up and drive somewhere out.
Lupin and Jigen look in the distance and a tear rolls down Lupin's eyes, and he saids that this is the hardest job he took.
The shadowed man appears again saying that now the police man and woman will be hunting for Lupin to get revenge, then... the son of the police guy appears???seemingly unscathed????
THEN GUESS WHAT
Tumblr media
IT WASNT LUPIN NOR JIGEN IN THIS CHAPTER. IT WAS ZENIGATA AND A RANDOM DUDE WHO DECIDED TO DO THOSE STUFF JUST TO BLAME LUPIN FOR ALL OF IT
THIS WAS JUST A PLAN THE ENTIRE TIME, A HORRIBLE PLAN!!!
i have no words to describe how much i hate this first part of the chapter, but luckily, its doesnt get worse from here.
Part 2!
Now we get the real Lupgang, who already know of Zenigata's plan and is hiding inside a wrecked ship. Zenigata is attempting to sneak up on them, but Jigen shoots a rock straight towards Zeni's head and the three split off elsewhere
Tumblr media
yknow what he really deserves it this time
Lupin enters an empty cabin where he finds that the policeman he captured in there escaped! Him, along with the woman tries to kill Lupin but he successfully convinces them that they were tricked by Zenigata and none of their misfortunes were his fault.
Lupin then returns the kid to the policeman from a balloon, and they hugged,,, sniffles sniffles
Tumblr media
Lupin's face looks consistently devious in this chapter idk why
Goemon and Jigen then return wearing policeman outfits but it appears that everything went smoothly so they take it off. wow.
AND THEN THEY GET CAUGHT BY ZENIGATA. He tells the two police task forces to capture Lupin, which they reluctantly obliged like wow ok thanks for being unhelpful
Tumblr media
But, Lupin uses the balloon trick on them and leave them floating on the sky. I wonder if theyll get rescued later...
ALSO SEE LUPIN LOOKS SO DEVIOUS GOD I LOVE IT
aaanyways so he only has Zenigata and the shadowed man to deal with (who is now unshadowed and revealed to just be a random fat dude) and he decides to just lift up a giant anchor and hit them with that! Wow genius
Zeni tells him to drop the anchor (but ok you cant tell my babygirl what to do you're my least favorite character in this chapter already) He does it, and the anchor drops Zeni and fat guy down all the way into the ocean... i guess they also got balloon'd without knowing.
Tumblr media
the end.
