You'll never see it coming...

@ slim: I haven't listened to it, but this isn't the first time I've heard similar remarks, so while it might be an exaggeration, there's probably at least a kernel of truth to it.

Wait, "Caligostro"? Wasn't that the focus of a Lupin movie?

You can listen here.

Oh and Caligstro (or however spelled, not checking) goes back to the original Lupin. The Countess is pretty much Lupin's archnemesis. Fun books with her, as are any. If anyone interested in trying a Lupin story, I recommend The Escape of Arsene Lupin for a starter short story. It's the third Lupin story written. Lupin classic is more classy than the 3rd, but just as smart.

Huh I'm honestly not sure to say.

It made me life though I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

Also Nyx really is Daredevil, only without the blindness.

[up][up] By the way, Fujiko is Carl and Zenigata is Hazama. Really ironic/coincidental, that last one. And for more ASW goodness, Rebecca is Elphelt.

Now that you've a taste of Nix, hope everybody hyped for the next encounter with him. Next showdown is episode 7. Or was it 6... I think it is 7.

Also, almost forgot about The Italian Dream! We'll be having so much fun with that.

As Fujiko says, Lupin's tendency to take his chances in certain situations is, well, classic Lupin.

Speaking of which, liking the blue dress, Fujiko.

I really enjoyed these Cagliostro references because The Castle of Cagliostro is the first Lupin anime I ever saw. grin

Next episode, we take a break from Lupin. It'll be a full episode to Jigen as he's on the way to meet up with Lupin and a story he gets caught up in.

So it was really all for Fujiko. Ah the fatal flaw of the Phantom Thief, their tendency to think with their dick. tongue

Though yeah that was a really a sweet moment between Lupin & Fujiko. Nice to know they can have moments like that where their not backstabbing each other to prove who's the better thief.

[up][up][up] Seeing how loose the concept of continuity is in Lupin III, I'm honestly surprised there was a shout-out to that film at all, especially since Word of God says it's supposed to be near the end of Lupin's career.

[up] Which is par the course for those two, I must admit.

Oh I can't wait until an episode near the end. It's a Fujiko episode where she goes through insane lengths to rescue Lupin after he gets captured by someone thanks to them using her. The series does a great balance of Fujiko as a femme fatale and still making clear she does love Lupin, they've just their own crazy relationship.

[up] Awww now that's just marshmallowy sweet. waii

Funny how Naruto's intense training basically amounted to the mundane concept of throwing his Jutsu.

Also huh I thought that green toad never talked.

Pretty smart thinking from Naruto there. He's no Shikamaru, but the kid's a lot more insightful and quick-witted than most give him credit.
