My January 2026 anime haul!!!
And just like that, bye bye Crunchyroll!! I am no longer using that store to purchase my anime physical media (except for Aniplex titles because they literally can't be bought anywhere else).
Crunchyroll did Discotek Media so dirty, so I immediately took advantage of MediaOCDs "Discotek Deep Dive".

Overall this Special is a 6/10 for me. I know I said a lot of bad things about it, but really there's just not any memorable or outstanding about this special. could've been a good TV episode, but an hour and a half movie? no way.

As for the NPC girl character, Lisa is one of the worst, she's supposed to be smart but behaves very dumb, and she contributes nothing to the plot besides crying and providing Lupin a trinket that helps them find the mcguffin.

I liked the Goemon subplot! It was pretty silly and fun, however I think it would've worked better as it's own TV episode instead of a plot line in this special. It very haphazardly connects to the main plot, just felt lazy.

First what I liked, I really like the art style! I might be in the minority but I'm fan of minimal shading and color. The Lupin gang looks good and the new female characters have super cute designs. They look a lot like Detective Conan characters, probably because this has the same art director.

Just Watch Lupin The 3rd The Secret Page of Marco Polo, AKA The Travels of Marco Polo - Another Page, AKA Record of Observations of the East - Another Page (Why Does this have so many titles 😭)
Kind of a nothing burger special tbh... I would say more about it but I honestly can't remember much.

This is probably my new favorite Lupin special. Most of these specials follow the same formula and depending on who directs it, they can vary from very good to very bad. This special however is 100% one of the good ones. The animation is fluid, the premise is unique, I 100% recommend!

Also, this is my new favorite interpretation of Fujiko. Fujiko is at her best IMO when she works with the gang and not backstab them. She’s more cute than sexy in this special, and she acts like a fun pouty rich girl. Meredith McCoy’s vocal performance as her was so fun and great!

I recently watched LUPIN III Missed by a Dollar, and can I just say how much I love the English dub. This was during the time when Funimation was in charge of the specials and omg each character’s voice is perfect, and the writing is hilarious, miss how old Funi dubs were written.
