A master thief in her own right, Fujiko is Lupin's one obsession that isn't stealing or messing with those who deserve it. She will often work with Lupin, only to screw him out of the goods in the end. Or perhaps she sets up Lupin for a job that ends up with him doing all the dirty work for her. Either way, she knows how to use Lupin and his love of her to get what she wants. In spite of her blatent use-and-abuse of Lupin, she has been shown on a number of occasions to truly love and care about him, and is quick to be at his side when things have really gone wrong. Occasionally, Fujiko will set up independent jobs of her own that have nothing to do with Lupin, but always end up paralleling one of his jobs in the end. Jigen pretty much wants nothing to do with her ever, but strangely Goemon, even with his honorable nature, has been known to partner up with her on the occasional heist.

Lupin's constant and most loyal partner, the laid back Jigen is constantly at his side, helping him with the next big score. Although Jigen can handle most any role Lupin hands him, his stand-out qualities are his remarkable, practically superhuman quick-draw and targeting skills. He also attempts to keep Lupin grounded where women are concerned, and ''especially'' where Fujiko is concerned; he has made his dislike of her and her motivations plain on many occasions. He works very well with Goemon, however, especially when it comes to taking down large portions of the enemy forces.

A master thief in her own right, Fujiko is Lupin's one obsession that isn't stealing or messing with those who deserve it. She will often work with Lupin, only to screw him out of the goods in the end. Or perhaps she sets up Lupin for a job that ends up with him doing all the dirty work for her. Either way, she knows how to use Lupin and his love of her to get what she wants. In spite of her blatent use-and-abuse of Lupin, she has been shown on a number of occasions to truly love and care about him, and is quick to be at his side when things have really gone wrong. Occasionally, Fujiko will set up independent jobs of her own that have nothing to do with Lupin, but always end up paralleling one of his jobs in the end. Jigen pretty much wants nothing to do with her ever, but strangely Goemon, even with his honorable nature, has been known to partner up with her on the occasional heist.

Originally, Goemon was one of Lupin's marks; the master thief wanted the secrets to Goemon's incredible sword and his amazing ability to use them. This caused their first confrontation to end with both of them being [[InfernalRetaliation lit on fire]]. Since then, the thief has impressed Goemon enough for the master samurai to join Lupin's gang and participate in his incredible schemes. More moody than Jigen, Goemon often has a tendency to go off on his own in the middle of missions, or occasionally joins up with Fujiko, in spite of the fact he is just as wary of her as Jigen is. But make no mistake...when the chips are down, Goemon will come back to Lupin's side in the end to help him deal with whatever mess he has managed to get himself into.

Lupin's constant and most loyal partner, the laid back Jigen is constantly at his side, helping him with the next big score. Although Jigen can handle most any role Lupin hands him, his stand-out qualities are his remarkable, practically quick-draw and targeting skills. He also attempts to keep Lupin grounded where women are concerned, and ''especially'' where Fujiko is concerned; he has made his dislike of her and her motivations plain on many occasions. He works very well with Goemon, however, especially when it comes to taking down large portions of the enemy forces.

Originally, Goemon was one of Lupin's marks; the master thief wanted the secrets to Goemon's incredible sword and his amazing ability to use them. This caused their first confrontation to end with both of them being [[InfernalRetaliation lit on fire]]. Since then, the thief has impressed Goemon enough for the master samurai to join Lupin's gang and participate in his incredible schemes. More moody than Jigen, Goemon often has a tendency to go off on his own in the middle of missions, or occasionally joins up with Fujiko, in spite of the fact he is just as wary of her as Jigen is. But make no mistake...when the chips are down, Goemon will come back to Lupin's side in the end to help him deal with whatever mess he has managed to get himself into.

* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Lampshaded in the sword's anime incarnation; the name Zantetsuken translates as "Iron-Cutting Sword."
* AmbiguouslyBrown: In the manga, pilot film, and ''The Secret of Mamo'' feature film.
* BishieSparkle: Happened in one episode of the second TV series. And he [[PowerGivesYouWings got wings]], too. Seriously.
* CultureEqualsCostume
* DefeatByModesty
* DependingOnTheWriter: Goemon's first manga incarnation is much more temperamental and impetuous than his more well-known anime personality.
* {{Fanservice}}: Goemon prefers to swim in little more than a [[LoinCloth fundoshi]].
* [[IdenticalGrandson Identical Great-Great-Great-etc. Grandson]]: The modern Goemon is descended from Goemon Ishikawa, an honorable thief of old Japan who is the subject of a well-known kabuki play.
* ImplausibleFencingPowers: It would be shorter to list what Goemon ''can't'' do with his sword.
* LimitedWardrobe: The colors of his kimono and hakama change, and that's about it.
* LuminescentBlush
* PickyEater: Occasionally.
* {{Samurai}}
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: His original motivation for joining Lupin's gang. Has pretty much since fallen by the wayside.
