'''"Falling Cherry Blossoms - The Mysterious Gang of Five - Part II"''', released in English as '''"Kooky Kabuki - Part Two"'''. Released in 2005 by Geneon on ''Volume 11: From Moscow With Love''.
As you might recall from the [[Lupin III
Lupin, Fujiko, and Jigen head back to the hideout, horrified to find the ''36 Views of Mount Fuji'' stolen, and the safe door cut in half. Lupin notes that the door is clearly Goemon's work, but the samurai is nowhere to be found and there are no signs of a struggle. The gang is forced to come to the conclusion that Goemon has betrayed them and is working for the Gang of Five. As the gang puzzles over their friend turning traitor, Goemon sits in the Gang of Five's hideout, as they celebrate their victory over Lupin. Damemon declares that it would be foolish to go after anything else but what Lupin has stolen, and the thief will be the gang's sole target from here on out. When Goemon warns them that Lupin will not fall so easily, the gang believes Goemon is afraid of his former friend; in order to prove himself to the gang, he will have to kill the master thief. Meanwhile, Kikuko looks on at the proceedings with a quiet concern.
Line 33:
* [[Implausible Fencing Powers]]: Goemon easily blocks the bullets Lupin fires at him from a close distance.
* [[Kabuki Sounds]]: Come on, look at the English title of the episode!
* [[Kill It
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Kikuko's meaning of "chrysanthemum" again comes into play as that's the flower she leaves in her trap for Goemon. Her surname, Benten, also gives away her true identity to Goemon.
* [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: Lupin and Goemon have one with each other to work out the betrayal. Without swords or guns, the two are shown to be dead even when it comes to fist fights.
