Lupin of the future, which is already in the past... (or just Shaw canceled!) This is no longer Lupin, but some kind of pampering. It is even probably good that there is only such a monument in the form in which it has reached our days. A monument to the work of 1982, which was restored in 2012. This monument is called "Lupin VIII". Why was that even done? Well, actually, it's not just pampering...
From what I understood, throwing electronic “paper”, it was an attempt by the creators to move “Lupin” to his desired homeland. But the birthplace of the book “Lupin” is France. Maurice LeBlanc. And there's copyright! Lupin VIII. Anime... You're almost gone! But you are as you are! And the "eight" in the title did not save! Interestingly, the anime originally from a Japanese studio was sublimated through a French studio so much that over time it transformed into Inspector Gadget!!! But that’s not the case...
What can we see in the remainder? We saw a voiceless video sequence with voiceless actions! Shooting, chases and other sounds.
And in the plot Descendant of the same Lupin Third, whom we know and love, together with (don't believe it, but ...) descendants Jigen and Goemon (yes, they seem to be friends for generations) live and live! Lupin also loves... (no, you're definitely psychics!) Fujiko Mine - according to DNA, love is transmitted, apparently... But stop kidding! It's different! Lupin is not a thief!!! Lupin is now a detective and has his own agency. Did you think?! A girl addresses him. Her grandfather (grandfather) is about to come out of Creos. Lupin discovers that 100 years ago he stole $10 billion worth of moon diamonds. But he is also waiting for the awakening of a certain Gordon. Okay. We are ready for a confrontation! .
In fact, as I was describing it, I felt that I was recounting what I had seen a thousand times! Familiar characters, only reworked. The most familiar story is not even twisted (only wrapped in a futuristic blanket)... Jegen and Fujiko (and Zenigata) - the sixth, Goemon the Eightfold ... Oh, my God, you are an inventor! .
But I must say that although it is recognizable many times, it is all done in the best traditions of Lupin!! Even a descendant wears a red jacket! Everything is just sweet here... Djigen and Goemon - they were supplied with weapons aka "Star Worth". Jigen doesn't have a cigarette in his mouth, he has a lollipop. Zenigata shines with a pipe, but this is not a smoking device, but a negotiating gadget. You're brave in general.
