9	----
10	* BrokenBird: She was kidnapped as a young girl by a child pornography ring, and would have ended up another of their rape victims if one of her captors hadn't noticed her aptitude with computers and convinced his fellows that she'd make them more money that way.

She later outright states to Fujiko she considers her a rival. However, she's a HopelessSuitor, as Lupin treats her more like a favorite niece than a love interest.

47	* TheManBehindTheCurtain: They're built up as this ominous faceless group. In reality, it's just a pompous drug runner named Chuck Glay, a cross dressing goth named Kunal Robinson, and a businesswoman named Sonia Boutella running the show. When actually confronted face to face (Lupin for Chuck, Jigen for Kunal, and Goemon for Sonia), they fold like cards in the presence of real danger.
48	* OhCrap:

50	** Chuck when he finds a very much alive Lupin in his hideout.
51	* {{Outgambitted}}: Twice over. When Lupin took Ami with her, they tried to make an ARG through the net to find him. However, Lupin just flies outside of police jurisdiction and even uses the ARG to his advantage to mock them. So the group hire some assassins to kill him... and they all end up killed when Lupin tricks them all into killing each other. One assassin seemingly kills Lupin but it turns out it was just a filter to make it look like such. The "assassin" was just Jigen helping to fake his death and the drone that captured the footage was under Ami's control the whole time. After which Lupin, Goemon and Jigen easily take care of the ringleaders and shut down the dark net. To add insult to injury, Fujiko ends up with all their money due to betting in their dead pool from the assassin game on who would "kill" Lupin.
52	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Sonia instantly tries to cut ties with Chuck and Kunal once outted on the Death Day board and set to run. Only to be stopped by Goemon.

57
58	A rival from Lupin's past who works for GDSE, a clandestine organization.
59	----
60	* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Was this to Lupin back in the day when he was starting out.
61	* AmbitionIsEvil: What separates Albert from the likes of Lupin is that Albert has placed a great amount of emphasis on rising to power through the French government, unlike Lupin who lives solely for the thrill of the chase. Albert is willing to cast aside most morals in exchange for power, which makes him much more dangerous to innocent people than Lupin is.
62	* BlatantLies: Lupin reminds him of an encounter in Mexico when a tiger-headed guard nearly killed him until Lupin saved him. Albert had forgotten the encounter until it was brought back up to which he lies he doesn't remember. Lupin calls him out on it.
63	* ColdBloodedTorture: Lupin knows him for it and he demonstrates it by dealing with the official that had hired Jose in the first place.
64	* CrazyPrepared: Lupin's first encounter with him in the present day had Lupin thinks he switched out his gun with one full of blanks and implanted a bomb in his car as a backup. Albert was ready for both of them having switched the gun with ''another one'' loaded with real bullets and finding the bomb and throwing it off the bridge. So when Lupin tried to detonate the bomb, it blew up in the river.
65	* DirtyCop: One of the directors of a French police organization, and exceptionally corrupt, with great ambition and desire to take over France and gain more power.
66	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Albert has a boyfriend, and while they're rarely onscreen together Albert does seem to care about the man.
67	* EvilCounterpart: Albert D'Andresy is best described as "Lupin with ambition." They're both thieves, although Albert has since strayed from that path. They're both genius criminals, and Albert even has a PsychoticSmirk that mirrors Lupin's CheshireCatGrin. As TheRival, Albert is also notable for directly opposing Lupin's code of life; whereas Lupin is a LovableRogue due to his desire to help others and code of honor, Albert is dishonorable and has no interest but his own rising power. This even comes through to the way they treat their teammates; while Lupin is kind to his gang and has a friendly relationship with all of them, Albert mostly works alone and [[ManipulativeBastard manipulates others]] as he sees fit.
68	* GracefulLoser: After realizing the notebook he took off of Lupin was fake, he laughs it off and concedes the victory to Lupin.
69	* ManipulativeBastard: He tricks Lupin into getting the black book for him by posing as a client that, as Lupin would find out later, is long since deceased.
70	* MythologyGag: In Maurice Leblanc original "Arsene Lupin" novels that inspired Lupin III, the original Arsene Lupin's mother is named Henriette D'Andresy. The shared surname marks Albert as a blood rival of Lupin.
71	* StraightGay: Revealed to have a male partner.
72	* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Lupin after the black book is stolen and Jose's group start carrying out assassinations using the information within.
73	* TheRival: As stated, he's a rival of Lupin's, and Lupin considered him AlwaysSomeoneBetter in their years as criminals. By the present, their rivalry continues although Albert is in a very different place in life. [[spoiler:It is revealed in ''Lupin Zero'' that Lupin's father and grandfather set them up as rivals since they were kids.]]
74	* WouldHurtAChild: Has no problem dealing with Jose's youngest minion, both by blinding them and stringing them up with their wire afterward.
75	[[/folder]]
76
77	[[folder: Jose's Group]]
78	A foursome of assassins led by a man named Jose, hired to get the black book that hold France's darkest secrets.
79	----
80	!!! '''General'''
81	* ArcVillain: Of "Episode 2"
82	* CarnivalOfKillers: Again a very quirky but deadly bunch.
83	* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Three of them die violently and ''painfully'', and Jose gets shot through the heart before trying to suicide-bomb Lupin and Albert. They're a sharp sign that the part was heading for DarkerAndEdgier territory, and their demises serve as a gruesome reminder that Lupin and the gang really don't screw around when it comes to life or death.
84
85	!!! '''Jose'''
86	->'''Voiced by:''' Issei Futamata (Japanese), Creator/FrankTodaro (English)

88	* ArtificialLimbs: His left arm is mechanical.

90	* TheLeader: Of his group, he calls all the shots and directions his minions.
91	* RocketPunch: A variant. He is able to fire out his fist with a line connected to his wrist so he can grab his opponents and shock them from a distance.
92	* ShockAndAwe: Can produce electricity through his mechanical arm.
93	* TakingYouWithMe: After he's fatally shot by Albert, he activates a explosive in his coat to try and kill both Lupin and Albert. Lupin noticed in time and pulled Albert away.
94	* YouHaveFailedMe: Does not tolerate failure in the slightest. He nearly kills Revenant for it and has a henchman killed for giving away their location to Lupin and Albert.
95
96	!!! '''Revenant'''
97	----
98	* AmbiguousGender: It's never revealed if the person is a man or a woman, so the gender is unspecified.
99	* MeaningfulName: Named as such due to the damage Revenant takes (getting shot and electrocuted) and yet manages to shrug it off enough to be fine in the next encounter.
100	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Lupin tricks Revenant into an iron maiden and closes it. Killing them quite gruesomely.
101	* TheFaceless: Revenant’s face is hidden behind a mask the entire time.
102	* TheGunslinger: When not in close ranger, Revenant opts for shooting.
103	* TheVoiceless: Doesn't speak a word of dialogue.
104	* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Lupin tries to get Revenant to fight close range by breaking out nun-chucks. Revenant seems to comply by readying their tonfas... before just turning their guns on Lupin and opening fire.
105
106	!!! '''Chlo'''

112	* FemmeFatalons: Along with her fangs, she likewise has sharp metal nails on her fingers.
113	* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: Goemon bisects her in the finale of their fight.
114	* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Has a mouth of sharpened fangs to add to her already feral nature.
115	* NowThatsUsingYourTeeth: Due to having a mouth full of fangs, she uses them to block both a wrench Lupin used against her and Goemon's sword
116	* SpikesOfVillainy: Has spiked pads on her elbows and knees to use for fighting.
117
118	!!! '''Araignee'''
119	->'''Voiced by:''' Tomo Muranaka (Japanese), Creator/CristinaValenzuela (English)
120	----
121	* AmbiguousGender: Again the gender is never specific if Araingee is a boy or a girl.
122	* DoesNotLikeGuns: Mentions they're not a fan of guns and only uses Albert's just to be a dick about it.
123	* EyepatchOfPower: Wears one on the right eye.
124	* EyeScream: Albert defeats Araignee by throwing Araingee’s spear right into their good eye.
125	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Defeated by the spear Araignee used as a weapon. Ironically Araingee was trying to inflict this on Albert by using his gun to kill him.
126	* MeaningfulName: Their name is French for "spider", fitting well with their use of RazorFloss.
127	* RazorFloss: Uses a wire with a spear on it as the main weapon. It's quite strong too, managing to send a motorcycle Lupin and Jigan were riding out of the air.

136	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: The other girls at school are scared of her and her unusual skills as a marksman on school grounds. Cooking animals in broad daylight only complicates things.
137	* FacialMarkings: Sports a bindi which seems to indicate that the Kingdom of Padar is somewhere in the Indian subcontinent.
138	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The tomboy with Ami, to what extent we can call the latter a "girly girl".
