I will write my thoughts about each and every episode, maybe movie too as i watch (i will document my parents' reactions too) (also nudity counter) (Cagliostro is not included because we already saw it back in january) (always in revision) (also there are spoilers)

Green Jacket Series

Total Nudity Count: 9 (this is for comedy reasons)

  • Episode 1: "Is Lupin Burnin'?"
    • (watched 4/22/24) a solid start. lupin's body count took everyone by surprise. i recall my dad making some joke about Zenigata's chin winning the race or something?? also his jaw dropped at the sudden cartoon nipple jumpscare (they were gonna tickle her to death???) overall entertaining. Jigen is mom's favorite she thinks he's the coolest (he is) the opening song is just so 70s (whether that's a good or bad thing is up to interpretation. lupin lupin lupin lupin. lupin the thirrrrdd)
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 1)
  • Episode 2: "The Man They Called a Magician"
    • (watched 4/22/24) one of the funnier episodes in my opinion. Pycal was hilarious he should come back sometime. This episode solidified my dad's love for the ending song. i liked that they were all going to have dinner together
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 2)
  • Episode 3: "Farewell My Beloved Witch" aka "I Love Linda/Lupin" (that's what i call it)
    • (watched 4/23/24) this one was good, but also a bummer. why did the bad guy look like jigen's evil twin? dad thought how they were pronouncing the name Linda is japanese was great
    • instances of nudity: 3 (total: 5)
  • Episode 4: "One Chance to Break Out"
    • i love Zenigata so much you guys. it's great to see him get some airtime. anyway, this was wild. both dad and i thought lupin would eat the butterfly for some reason, or it was working with him somehow.
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 6)
  • Episode 5: "The Coming of Goemon XIII"
    • (watched 4/27/24) i really like Goemon glad he's back. jigen's american, apparently? fujiko telling lupin and goemon the same lie about each other is funny. how many exes does she have??
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 7)
  • Episode 6: "Rainy Afternoons are Bad"
    • (watched 4/30/24) HIS NAME IS KIDS MEAL?????? rip kids meal. zenigata cameo makes me happy. i'll be honest it wasn't my favorite episode but i still liked it. dad thought the amnesia machine thing was really creative for its time. I LOVE the miniscule little scene where they're about to be hit by a car and lupin pushes jigen out of the way?? with this characterization, i'm certain that lupin would have saved himself before anyone else but not this time! i love all the little moments showing lupin and jigen's friendship(?) it's so sweet. This episode solidified MY love for the ending song
    • instances of nudity: none really?? (total: 7)
  • Episode 7: "A Wolf Calls a Wolf"
    • (watched 5/3/24) Goemon's in the team now!!! this will be fun. this one moved slowly but the end result was worth it. the scene where straight up chops the guy in half shocked everybody
    • instances of nudity: none again (total: 7)
  • Episode 8: "The All-Together Playing-Card Operation"
    • (watched 5/7/24) this was just a great episode??? idk what else to say about it i just loved it. real creative, real funny... i loved how each character got to be present. just really great especially Zenigata i'm just so happy to see him!!!! the little joker guy was neat
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 8)
  • Episode 9: "Killer Sings the Blues"
    • (watched 5/9/24) his name may be Poon but it didn't sound remotely funny like one would expect. so this was a serious episode... really really good??? fujiko is so studyable i need to delve into her mind (all the characters here are like that but this one's about her) this was a bummer that ruled.
    • instances of nudity: 1 (total: 9)
  • Episode 10: "Hunt Down the Counterfeiter!"
    • (watched 5/10/24) slavs: the episode. i don't have too much to say. it was pretty fun and cool. and there's NO WAY miyazaki wasn't inspired by this for cagliostro it's hilarious.
