Normally we have reservations when a long-standing anime superstar tries to go the CG route, but the new anime film Lupin III: The First, which came this year to America courtesy of GKIDS, made the translation flawlessly (live-action is even worse, by the way, and Lupin’s been there). But this time the classic designs by Monkey Punch came alive in the animation shift — and the plot wasn’t bad either; critics loved it.
Unfortunately it had to come here in 2020, so you likely haven’t seen it yet. You’ll get your chance when the film hits Blu-Ray and DVD January 12 — or today, if you prefer to own it digitally. Join Lupin and his friends — six-shooter-wielding Jigen, ninja swordsman Goemon, and love interest-slash-frenemy Fujiko Mine — as they search for the mysterious Bresson Diary.
