Line 2:
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: Manga!Lupin not only regularly scores with Fujiko but is an outright rapist whose capers can be anywhere in the moral alignment and committed for any reason; Anime!Lupin is an unsuccessful [[Handsome Lech]] whose crimes tend to be either harmless or against [[Asshole Victim|AssholeVictims]]; and Cagliostro!Lupin a [[Chivalrous Pervert]] securely on the side of good.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: The green jacket series is FINALLY coming to our shores next year. And who better to do the job than Discotek?
** [http://www.animenewsnetwork.comcc//news/2012-03-07/new-lupin-iii-tv-anime-staff-cast-title-revealed A new anime series] starring Fujiko is airing in April. Over 20 years since the Pink Jacket series ended!
*** What's more, [[Red Line|Takeshi]] [[Awesome Art (Sugar Wiki)|Koike]] will be doing the character designs and the style will be more in line with Monkey Punch's original manga.
* [[Antagonist in Mourning]]: In ''Mystery of the Fuma Clan'', Zenigata has actually quit his job and become a Buddhist monk because he believes Lupin to be dead. When asked why, he says that if he prays enough, Lupin may be reincarnated as a law-abiding man. Possibly a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]].
** And in "The Last Job", when Zenigata is presumed dead Lupin spends a moment or two looking depressed before going off to do his thing again.
* [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]]: The opening motorcycle chase sequence from ''The Legend of the Gold of Babylon'' gets a big "WTF" from a lot of first-time viewers.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: [[Lupin III/Awesome Music|Has its own page]].
* [[Die for Our Ship]]: Fujiko suffers this at the hands of fangirls sometimes.
Line 16:
** The ''Cliff Hanger'' laserdisc game, made using footage from ''The Castle of Cagliostro'' and ''Mystery of Mamo''.
** The Carl Macek dub of ''Castle of Cagliostro'' contains one of Macek's most infamously cheesy "translations": when Goemon slices off Lupin's burning clothing, "Once again I've cut a worthless object" becomes
{{quote| '''Goemon:''' Should've worn an asbestos suit.}}
* [[Memetic Mutation]]:
** A minor meme within the English fandom is [[Mike McFarland|Goemon's]] [[Narm|"QUICK, TAKE MY HAND!"]] from the English dub of ''Nostradamus''.
