Ideas/Overview
I gotta say, I initially thought Lupin the third: Half III 22 was stuffed with excrement over the thought of burning diamonds. The writers of the episode even had Zenigata-Lupin query this. And for the reason that episode supplied a solution as to why diamonds would burn, I believed I’d look it up. Certain sufficient, diamonds burn at 1562°F (850°C). And gasoline can burn as scorching as 1,950°C, which is 3,542°F. So it’s attainable to burn diamonds with gasoline, however I reasonably doubt it could go the way in which the episode makes it go.
That apart, this episode ended up being complicated, because of the poor subtitles. Leaving apart for a second that whomever modified Zantetsuken to “your sword”, the English made it appear to be Lupin and firm had been going after a single, million carat diamond. Diamond was at all times carried out within the singular. And but the visuals clearly confirmed that Lupin and gang had been after a ton of diamonds. That was irritating to make sure.
In any other case, this episode was only a dumb, revenge plot story. There’s quite a lot of movement and carrying on, however no substance. And on the finish of the episode, Fujiko does what one expects in stealing the final diamond from Lupin. The one surprising half is that she runs round with Lupin in pursuit in an virtually flirtatious method.
Lastly, I discovered it humorous that for the early a part of the episode, it seems that Lupin is in his crimson jacket, not his pink one.
Closing Ideas and Conclusion
Ultimately, Lupin the third: Half III 22 is only a senseless episode the place issues occur. The crappy, official subtitles don’t assist issues both.
