Ideas/Evaluation
I couldn’t assist however be reminded of the John Wick films with Lupin the third: Half III 34. It wasn’t that we bought to see Lupin or Jigen exhibiting off wonderful, taking pictures expertise. It got here from the truth that all over the place they went, a could be murderer waited for them, attempting to get the hit and the reward. That reminder amused me.
Past that, the episode was kinda fascinating. I preferred how the mafia boss used Lupin as a scapegoat to make off along with his group’s stashed hundreds of thousands. I believe that he used Ed as nicely. Regardless, it got here off to me as if the boss deliberate this for fairly a while. To the “godfather” (assuming the interpretation is right), Ed stole $8M. However Ed hid it, slightly than use it to get away. And contemplating how the 2 henchmen know Ed’s house and such, Ed was additionally a scapegoat.
I even get the sensation that the mafia boss organized issues with the ICPO in order that Zenigata wasn’t allowed to get a lodge in New York. That manner, the mafia boss might simply “stumble” on Zenigata sleeping in Central Park, take him to his mansion, after which pump him for details about Lupin. Fairly intelligent.
Fujiko’s half within the story is slightly laughable. She has some hippy, wimpy, tagger boyfriend. I do not know why she’d hook up with him within the first place, since he’s not wealthy. He turns into a plot contrivance within the second have of the story. That apart, I’m glad that when Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon bought the rating, they left Fujiko within the chilly.
Remaining Ideas and Conclusion
In the long run, Lupin the third: Half III 34 was an entertaining sufficient episode. There are just a few cringe moments with Ed. And the decision of the mafia boss is cartoonish. However in any other case, I good outing. Oh, and Lupin even referenced the film The Untouchables.
