Lupin The 3rd

I've never seen the Pharoh one... 🙁

The pharoh one is funny.

ONe question who is Lupin's dad? I remember them mentioning him but never really heard what he was about or did.

Lupin's dad was a thief as well. Although his (Lupin) grandfather was a much more prominent thief.

Arsene Lupin
Arsene Lupin jr.
Arsene Lupin the 3rd.

Really? wow I would have never thought it.

On Fooly Cooly yesterday the dad was wearing Lupins clothes and a boxing glove came out of Haruko-san when he jumped out of his clothes. Just like Lupin. They even had the typewriter opening...

😂

No but would you feel me in?

Arsène Lupin is a fictional gentleman-thief character appearing in a series of novels by Maurice Leblanc. The novels state that he was born in France in 1874, and he was still alive when Leblanc died in 1941. He generally concentrates his efforts on robbing those who deserve it.

The character of Arsène Lupin is based, in part, on French anarchist Marius Jacob.

So he is sort of like Robin Hood then?

LoL I wouldn't go that far. Robin Hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor. Lupin steals from those who deserve it. (Could be rich, could just be people who are jerks.) And gives to himself.

so basically this anime is based off real life events that took place in the past?

Hmm. Arsene Lupin was based off of Marius Jacob. His excursions were completely made up though. I guess you could say Lupin the 3rd is based off of the fictional excursions of Arsene Lupin, who is inturn based off of Marius Jacob.
