Do you want your Noir Samurai flick with a heaping helping of limbs, heads and blood being hacked and lobbed in the air like a bloody tossed salad? Do you want the cool aesthetic of finely hand drawn vibrant animation that practically locks your eyes to the screen enjoying every movement? Queue this up immediately, and pop a bottle of 10 dollar Malbec for a fun filled evening of old-school anime violence. First off, this is NOT like the Lupin in Castle of Cagliostro, the 2nd-4th TV series, or the one in the Lupin vs Detective Conan movies. This one is bloody, very bloody. This is following in the 2 camps of Lupin. In one, Lupin is more PG-13 and he is formulaic and somewhat of a "good guy". The Miyazaki Lupin that has been around since he worked on the show in the late 70s. Then there is the grittier Lupin, where he and his entourage are seedier and the rating moves more into the R, or 17+ areas. This title falls directly in that line. Do you need to see another Lupin first? No. BUT this makes a good companion piece to A Woman Called Fujiko Mine and LupinIII, Jigen's Gravestone. I would almost say they seem to be in the same timeline. This in-particular Lupin is actually a lot less about Lupin, which of the three titles listed, all share a similar thread. Each title seems to be focusing on one of Lupin's gang and giving them a worthy standalone story, where Lupin acts merely as the glue that holds the story together. He is still intrigal, but it show in the title alone that the focus might move from him. Just note, Lupin is a world renoud thief, Jigen is a right hand man who used to be a sharp shooter for the Mob, Goemon is a swordsman for hire who works with Lupin on a lot of his capers, Fujiko is a thief in her own right and can be capable of robbing Lupin right after he robs someone else, and Zendigatta, is the poor Javier styled cop who has made it his mission in life to apprehend Lupin. So, this is Goemon's turn. I will say I had a great bit of anticipation for this one. Not since Plot of the Fuma Clan, have I seen such a Goemon centric episode. Background, Goemon is a Samurai who has become a bit of a hired sword in the modern day. In the Lupin shows of past, he longed for traditional Japanese ways and traditions. He himself would lament cutting things that seemed beneath his sword. So, the intelligent thing to do here would be to pay homage and bring to the fore light Samurai styled stories. And I feel this show did so better than just about any anime outside of Shiriguri or Sword of the Stranger. In fact If anyone was a mild fan of great Samurai tales such as Yojimbo, Twilight Samurai, Lone Wolf and Cub, or Zatochi, you would immediately see the relevance of Lupin III Chikemuri no Ishikawa Goemon. As a Samurai epic goes, you never truly know what the protagonist is thinking. In this title Goemon does many things that are not fully reveled to the end. The code of a samurai, is often more complex, and the movie explores a small element of that. There are other hidden gems playing to those great sword titles of yore. A good example is in Lone Wolf and Cub. There is a moment of clairvoyance where one is "seeing" a fight before it starts. Supposedly, a finely trained Samurai, going against another finely trained samurai, could see what could happen next in a fight 5 moves ahead. It is like playing a preview scenario, seeing the outcome, and acting on that from what you "saw". In the story, a giant of a man in a lumberjack outfit named Hawk heads off on what might or might not be a forced assignment. His target puts him on a cross path with Goemon, who is guarding a mafia styled boss on a cruise ship. Lupin, Jigen and Fujiko all happen to be on this vessel and are there for a heist. In the melee Goemon has a run in with the massively proportioned Hawk the Ghost of Bermuda. Lupin and crew escapes but Hawk seems to have a motivation that is not entirely Goemon's employer. Zendigatta enters the scene on assignment that puts him between the crosshairs of Hawk. Goemon is thrown into a bit of an uncharacteristic funk for a while as he comes to terms with Hawk and his newly shattered ego. The title delves into violent, unsettling, training as Goemon seemingly is listless and self-destructive. This is the first time since A Woman Called Fujiko Mine, where I have seen actual depth on a character past the 1 dimensional motivation. Speaking of characters, Lupin understands the stakes, and although he is not the catalyst of change in this title, he becomes your narrator into what Goemon is thinking. Jigen and Fujiko add less to the overall title, but it might be a positive. Sometimes when emphasizing one character, you need to divert from others. I will say though, this is the second title in which Fujiko does not seem to have a lot she contributes. I did like the increased screen time for Zendigatta, however. For many a moon, you never know his true capabilities. In this title, he is able to drive a crappy cop car like a pro, and can fire out of a speeding car with a Colt 45 with dizzying success. I feel they actually gave him a bit more beef to his physical presence. And now to Hawk. It is hard to come up with truly worrisome antagonists in the Lupin world. Most of the time, I laugh any of them off as Lupin beats them with some half ass trickery. But here Hawk shines as an unstoppable force. His Terminator style brought a good deal of dread. I only wish they had fleshed out his backstory a tad more. I mean we know there is a kid, we know somehow he was augmented, and we know he is the best axe man ever. I do believe Hawk could put the lumber industry in jeopardy as he lopped trees down riding a bike. I mean, if they had expanded him a bit more, we would understand why he seems frustrated that he cannot sleep. Animation.... There is some of the eye-blastingest it's a word now Mother fucker visuals I have ever seen. Lupin on the boat alone as he looks at the camera, glossy light twinkling in an array of shiny madness, Hawk blasting through a window, the part where Goemon looks like a blender ripping through people. I passed so many shots on this title to capture the glory. Sound Each of the characters brought a wealth of history with them. They have all been voicing the characters for a bit Jigen for decades and gave weight to every line. The swords clinging and the axe pounding are enough to make you hunker down in your seat so as not to be it, and the gunshots and explosions were amazing. This is not our mamas Toho stock sound effects. Overall, This is short, maybe even too short. I am always a believer that shorter is better. If you don't have more to offer, don't add filler, but in this one it could have used a little more on who Hawk was. Also and introduction of the Mafia’s Son would have been nice. Some of the characters are not fully formed Hawk or Zendigatta, but what it did get right, it did so in spades. So, finally, one of the major reasons I got into anime was... Animation! If I JUST wanted story I would have watched plenty of other mediums. I enjoy the look and feel of animation, and adding violence like the ones I first watched that wowed me, you better believe I am going to sing some praises to it.

Commentaires It’s painful for me to admit, but I still haven’t entirely recovered from the passing of Monkey Punch. Perhaps this is just because of how important his Lupin series is to me personally, but I know that I’m definitely not alone in my sentiments. But if the latest Lupin anime Goodbye Partner and Fujiko Mine’s Lie have proven anything, it’s that Monkey Punch’s creation has been left in very safe hands. What we see when examining the Goodbye Partner TV special and Takeshi Koike’s Fujiko Mine’s Lie side by side is that they have different types of appeal that should, by all intents and purposes, contradict each other. Yet, this in itself is part of the magic of Lupin, a series which will last forever – as long as those behind it can keep on drawing out that magic, that is. Goodbye Partner Wacky Science and Old School Cool Lupin III Goodbye Partner was our first slice of Lupin to come in 2019, as it aired as a TV special around the New Year period. At the time of its announcement, it garnered significant excitement from fans not just because Lupin would be wearing a black jacket for the first time, but also because of the intriguing synopsis. TMS Entertainment teased that the theme’ of the Goodbye Partner special would be that of Jigen’s betrayal,’ Lupin’s long-time partner, at which the anachronistic samurai Ishikawa Goemon was enraged.’ Given this synopsis, which hinted at a rupture in one of the most iconic partnerships in anime history, the special was really shaping up to be a truly original entry in the series’ 50-year history. What you’ll actually find when watching Goodbye Partner, however, is that it’s not very original at all – in fact, it prides itself on invoking the Lupin of a bygone age with its old school cool and wacky science. In the first instance, the theme of Jigen’s betrayal’ didn’t turn out to be as earth-shattering as you might think. To be truthful, it only makes up a small part of the overall special and seems to have been overemphasized in publicity for marketing purposes. I’m totally cool with that, though, as what Goodbye Partner is actually about is a super-advanced AI that’s hypersensitive to the music of Chopin and tries to take over the world. Now, that’s a concept that’s sufficiently bizarre on its own, but it’s made even more so by how seriously all of the characters in the special – including a fictional US President that closely resembles Hillary Clinton – take it. I will admit that some viewers might be thrown out of the experience when watching the special because of this crazy, bizarre science – especially if they’re used to the more realistic tone of Takeshi Koike’s LUPIN IIIRD films – but I, for one, was absolutely enthralled as it took me back to the old school era of Lupin. This type of crazy science was a big part of the Saturday morning cartoon’ appeal of the original TV series, as well as the subsequent specials and films, and I’ve kinda missed that in recent years. Goodbye Partner’s super-advanced AI really reminded me of the magician who uses mirrors in the original 1968 TV anime, or even the entire climax of 1978’s The Mystery of Mamo in how illogical and bizarre it might sound in concept, but how endearing it can be in execution. That being said, Goodbye Partner certainly isn’t perfect. Rather, I found myself checking the time multiple times throughout the special’s fairly long 1 hour 30-minute run-time due to significant pacing problems, particularly during the second act. Plus, a lot of the original characters were quite disappointingly one-dimensional when compared to how much better the series has gotten at this in the past couple of years – Arisa and Roy don’t hold a candle to such characters as Rebecca and Albert. Even so, Goodbye Partner was able to successfully elicit some of the great things about more classic Lupin. In that sense, I was very much entertained. The fact that it was able to do this is, in turn, demonstrative of just how powerful the Lupin series and those currently behind it truly are. Fujiko Mine’s Lie Self-Confident Sexuality that Pushes the Boundaries I’m especially confident about the future of the Lupin III franchise going forward when comparing Goodbye Partner to Fujiko Mine’s Lie, because Takeshi Koike was able to do almost the exact opposite of the aforementioned TV special in his own original film and still succeed all the same – showing the immense creative potential that the franchise can offer. Echoing what fellow OTAQUEST staff writer Alicia said in her review of the film, Fujiko Mine’s Lie follows the logic of 2014’s The Woman Called Fujiko Mine in skillfully portraying the powerful sexuality of the character of Fujiko Mine with grace and style. It also manages to avoid the problem of the male gaze, which could sap the power of such sexuality by reducing it to an object, by employing intense realism. Such realism, couldn’t be more different from the wacky, old school style of Goodbye Partner. I’d even go as far as to say that, if you showed the two films side by side, those with no prior might not even realize that they both belong to the same franchise and use the same characters. That’s not to say, however, that Fujiko Mine’s Lie doesn’t have some unrealistic elements. After all, there still is a superpowered villain that can summon sandstorms at will. But what is key here is the tone and the overall purpose of the film. Koike’s quest for a realistic depiction of these characters means that, even if the villain might have superpowers, his story of sexual awakening is still treated with dignity and grace. It’s also given real thematic meaning, as it showcases the power of self-confident female sexuality as opposed to objectified female sexuality, which Fujiko has long since opposed. This realism is but one part of the appeal of the new’ era of Lupin III. Yet, this new’ era seems to be opposed in so many ways to the old’ – as seen in the different styles and tones of Fujiko Mine’s Lie and Goodbye Partner. Nevertheless, that fact that these two works that so effortlessly embody the old’ and new’ of Lupin III released within mere months of each other – and did quite well, at that – is surprising. This seemingly contradictory fact, however, is exactly what makes Lupin so special. Lupin Will Live Forever Lupin has long since acted as an incubator for the most talented creators in the industry. Indeed, one of the reasons why the series has evolved so much over the years is that different creators with different visions and aims are constantly coming in and out of the series, shaping and molding it to their specific desires, in turn. This fact does, however, beg a simple question why? Why do creators turn to Lupin, instead of just creating their own, original projects? On a cynical level, you could certainly argue that it’s probably just easier to get a Lupin project off the ground than it is your own original anime project. After all, we’re talking about the choice of banking of 50 years of success, or taking a chance on the unknown – which one do you think producers are going to take? Even if you’re locked into a Lupin project instead of your own, original project, you can still inject a lot of those original ideas into your Lupin piece. I’d wager that’s why we get bonkers stuff like the super-advanced Chopin AI in Goodbye Partner and the sandstorm summoner in Fujiko Mine’s Lie, to be honest. But on a more artistic level, taking on such an iconic series so intently ingrained in the Japanese – and, indeed, global consciousness – gives creators a ready, influential vehicle with which they can tell exciting stories that might push the medium of animation and storytelling ever forward, just as Lupin stories have done in the past. Adopting Lupin and the tropes that come with it also allows creators to push the boundaries of the Lupin series itself from within, giving them the rare chance to teach an old dog new tricks. Fujiko Mine’s Lie is perhaps the most obvious example of this, as Koike attempts to mold Monkey Punch’s creation into a hard-boiled crime thriller. But even director Jun Kawagoe and writer Takehiko Hata do this on Goodbye Partner, as they are able to demonstrate that this old dog can still do that trick that people loved so dearly, so many years ago. More generally, though, creators pushing the boundaries of the Lupin series also allows it to discover new methods of appeal, therefore allowing more and more diverse sets of people to enjoy its stories. How many people got into the Lupin III franchise because of the more progressive The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, and how many more will because of Fujiko Mine’s Lie? How many people got into the franchise because of the more shonen-styled Part 4 or Part 5? For that matter, how many people got into the franchise because of Hayao Miyazaki’s more romantic take on the franchise with 1979’s The Castle of Cagliostro? Because I know I did. But the fact that TMS Entertainment has been able to nail both the past and future appeal of the franchise, that is to say the old’ and new’ era of Lupin III with Goodbye Partner and Fujiko Mine’s Line in the same year, mere months apart is nothing short of an incredible achievement. This all comes down to the incredible work of the people over at the studio, such as Jun Kawagoe and Takeshi Koike, but also the hundreds of others who work hard to ensure little things, such as the way Jigen twirls his pistol or the Fiat 500 sounds, are just right. These people are what give me confidence about the future of the franchise. They are the ones that make me believe in both the old school cool of Goodbye Partner and the self-confident sexuality of Fujiko Mine’s Lie. Their work makes me truly believe that Lupin III will live forever. All of this means that Monkey Punch, wherever he might be now, can rest assured – his Lupin III is in very safe hands. One of the treats fans can look forward to in Lupin III The First is the return of some of the classic English dub cast members. Those dub actors will be front and center in one of the newly-announced bonus features on the home video release, which packs in an English Dub Cast Reunion among the rest of the extras. Both the film and bonus feature brings together the voices of Tony Oliver, Doug Erholtz, Michelle Ruff, Richard Epcar, and Lex Lang as they return to some of their best known roles, with Laurie C. Hymes and Paul Guyet joining the cast for this CG-animated outing. The reunion has the cast reminiscing on the best moments in the series. GKIDS and Shout! Factory's home video release is due out on digital download-to-own on December 15, followed by Blu-ray/DVD combo pack, a standalone DVD, and SteelBook edition of the Blu-ray/DVD on January 12, 2021. Some of the features exclusive to the Blu-ray include interviews with director Takashi Yamazaki and the Japanese voice cast and more, and the SteelBook adds in a 16-page booklet with character concept art.
