Phrase spreads across the globe because the Soviets mobilize to cease the submarine. Whereas they monitor it, Zenigata makes an attempt to arrest Fujiko in Amsterdam. She screams for assist, pretending to be a sufferer of sexual assault. After she escapes, she will get phrase from Lupin about his profitable theft.
Quickly after, Zenigata will get cuffs on Fujiko. Nevertheless, the Mossad attempt to get her to security. They’re thwarted by MI-6 brokers. Nevertheless, earlier than they’ll make a pitch, the Korean CIA intervene. As Zenigata marvels at this flip of occasions, the KGB arrive and take Zenigata and Fujiko to be interrogated by the Soviet minister. Nevertheless, the American CIA, wanting like frat boys and sorority ladies, rescue them and comply with Fujiko’s $10M worth for the submarine.
Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon rig the submarine at an island earlier than crusing to the Bermuda Triangle to discover a sunken British pirate ship from the 1700s.

Ideas/Evaluate
And with Lupin the third: Half III 50, this collection is FINALLY over. Wow. I assume the writers determined to throw all the pieces into the pot for this episode. Assuming Lupin may steal a large, high secret, Soviet submarine, he and Jigen can not crew the factor alone. A ballistic missile submarine is crewed by 140 folks. Contemplating the complexity, Lupin would have wanted 8-9 folks simply to get underway, and double that to go someplace. And even then, they have to be extremely skilled.
Placing that apart, you wouldn’t desire a large, navy submarine to attempt to discover some sunken pirate ship. Heck, it takes years looking simply to search out this stuff. However ’trigger “plot”, Lupin is aware of the precise location. About the one factor the episode obtained proper was the ship had disintegrated and all the pieces was buried within the sand/silt.
Regardless, Fujiko’s plan to promote the sub to another nation did make sense. Nevertheless, the execution was trash. I couldn’t assist however consider the brilliance of The Hunt for Crimson October as I watched this garbage episode. Had the writers not turned the CIA brokers right into a mixed fraternity and sorority idiocy, who’s individuals are solely enthusiastic about partying, perhaps issues may have been executed higher.
I’m informed that Lupin the third: Voyage to Hazard (Lupin III: Orders to Assassinate Lupin) remade this episode. I checked my previous CAR overview and nicely, the remake doesn’t appear to have thrilled me. I nonetheless personal that DVD, so perhaps I’ll rewatch it and torture myself.
Remaining Ideas and Conclusion
Let me wrap up my overview of Lupin the third: Half III 50 with some last ideas.
- I assume since this was the ultimate episode, the manufacturing crew determined to have Fujiko do a scene in her horny panties and nothing else. 😑
- Goemon is a waste within the episode, used solely to do the “knowledge of Solomon” transfer to chop the sub in half.
- Jigen doesn’t have a lot to do both apart from inform Lupin about bother coming.
- As to Zenigata…nicely, he’s used as buffoon materials.
Ultimately, Lupin the third: Half III 50 is one other garbage episode, full of motion, a unadorned Fujiko (and bare CIA chicks), and a narrative that COULD have been good within the fingers of competent writers.
