WHAT A RIDE! In the 50 years of Lupin Sansei, he has only gotten better and better. This Special was brilliant and an amazing callback to lupin of old. Now I'm currently writing this having watched Part 5 and I can tell that this was definitely a precursor to the new groove that Lupin has flowed in recent times. Even if this special falls under part 4 it feels like 5's fresh take. Now don't get me wrong Lupin III is an amazing series with a great cat and mouse dynamic(ala Zenigata and Lupin) and brimming ideas of many people who have contributed to the seriesbut this special is HEAVY fanservice so be warned to a bit of confusion but other than that I hope you enjoy it.
