* FanNickname: Fans sometimes call the BigBad Count Draco due to being named so in the ''Cliff Hanger'' game.

* DisownedAdaptation: Monkey Punch despised the film for how it changes his characters and has called the film "childish". He hated the movie so much it broke his relationship with Miyazaki.

** Monkey Punch, who created the franchise, has called the film "childish" and felt that the characters didn't act like how he would have portrayed them. That said, he admitted on its own, it didn't turn out so bad; it just isn't his work.
*** Monkey Punch's opinion seems to have softened on it over time, mentioning it as being one that he particularly enjoyed.

* PresentDayPast: Although not mentioned in dialogue, a newspaper briefly seen in the film dates this film as being set in 1968. Not noticing this, the typical assumption used to be that because Lupin spoke of being older and more mature (an in universe reason for the toning down of his antics in the manga and 1971 TV series), this adventure must have been set in the year of the film's production (1979), 12 years after his manga debuted.

* JustForFun/RoleAssociation:
** On the Japanese side, Creator/SumiShimamoto, the seiyuu for Clarisse, would go on to voice a number of other iconic Miyazaki characters (in particular, the heroine of ''Manga/NausicaaOfTheValleyOfTheWind'', and later Toki from ''Anime/PrincessMononoke''), as well as Ginrei from ''Anime/GiantRobo''. She was also the dub voice for Princess Leia in the ''Film/StarWars'' films.
** On the English side:
*** Lupin III is voiced by none other than Creator/DavidHayter (''Franchise/MetalGear'') in the 2000 English dub.
*** Creator/KirkThornton was in both English dubs… as entirely different characters: Gustav (Streamline), and Count Cagliostro (Manga).
*** Creator/BridgetHoffman (adult!Nia in ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', Belldandy in the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' movie) is Clarisse in Manga's dub.
*** In the Streamline dub, Lupin is voiced by Creator/BobBergen, who would later become the voice of Porky Pig.

** Some wonder what the film might have been like if Miyazaki had been given one more month, though some doubt it'd have been ''that'' different. Though there could have been less StockFootage, at least; it's likely Miyazaki prefers to avoid using that technique if at all possible.

*** Goemon is voiced in the Manga Video dub by Creator/RichardEpcar, who would later voice Jigen in the Creator/{{Geneon}} dub of the [[Anime/LupinIIIRedJacket "Red Jacket"]] TV series (and serve as its ADR director)… and would even later play Zenigata in Creator/{{Funimation}}'s dub of ''[[Anime/LupinIIITheWomanCalledFujikoMine The Woman Called Fujiko Miné]]''.

* RoleAssociation:

* ChannelHop: Played with a bit in regards to the Streamline dub, which has been released in North America by FOUR companies, twice as many as Manga's dub--specifically, Streamline Pictures Video Comics (which released it in letterbox format), Best Film and Video Corp. (which released a budget-priced cassette as part of a deal with Streamline), Discotek Media (which also includes two versions of the Manga dub), and Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (as part of a Miyazaki box set on Blu-ray).

* RedStapler: Former Princess Sayaka of Japan liked Clarice's FairytaleWeddingDress so much that she had a real-world one made for her wedding dress.
