Rupan sansei: Rupan ansatsu shirei

This is the first Lupin III movie to receive an English dub from my favorite dubbing team. I do love Lupin sounding like Krillin and Fujiko like Android 18, it keeps them together as a power couple. Likewise, Chris Sabat is a great voice for Jigen. Heck, this one even has Dameon Clarke, voice of Cell, as a villain. This Funimation group would continue to dub for the next 10 Lupin III movies.

The hook for this film is that Inspector Zenigata is off the case and a new more ruthless officer is assigned to catch Lupin and the gang. But, like usual, Lupin isn't too concerned about being caught and goes on to try to steal money from illegal arms dealers, this time accompanied by Zenigata.

This is a good Lupin III adventure. Fujiko is used for some good undercover work. Zenigata and Lupin work well off each other. Goemon has a struggle to overcome. But the real highlight of this one is Jigen. He has a subplot between him and this movie's one-off lady, Russian Engineer Karen Korinsky.

The villain, arms dealer John Klause isn't that memorable. But he clearly has a crush on Fujiko, which makes him the most relatable character of the movie.

The movie does seem like it is juggling too many things at once and loses its focus as it goes on. The animation isn't one of their better aspects this time around. But overall, this is still a fun Lupin adventure.

Trust the captain, this voyage is going to good places.

Finally because after Lupin's Empire is Anastasia's treasure those films made me really happy. I didn't like them at all but now there is this film that really won me over this time Inspector Zenigata excluded from the Lupine case since the Police he hired a mercenary totake Lupine and there are also people who want to conquer the world So what do I think of this Lupine film that finally after those two that I didn't like a real Lupine film done well this time Ah I'll tell you that female character I don't know the name, I thought it wasan interesting character because I wanted to kill Jigen mirrors in the past he had killed his father that's why he wants to avenge him he seemed like a well done character and this time the villain of this film seemed really okay Old Mira the mind I can find some bad onesinteresting stories of Lupine and I managed to like this one. I also recommend it if you are a fan of Lupine III. Get it to conclude, rating 9.

The plot of this movie involves Lupin and his gang being in a submarine for twenty minutes, with little to no conflict. It's immensely boring. After this, the movie takes place on an evil guy's militarized headquarters in a jungle. The evil guy wants the submarine so he can fire nukes at people.

Lupin, Jigen, Fujiko, and Goemon at the very least are treated decently in this. They act like their usual fun loving, money loving selves. One plus side in this very generic movie, is that the Lupin gang end up being nicer to each other than they often do. Fujiko is especially nice in this one, and of course she brings that sex appeal to the table, which helps. These classic characters are the best part of this story.

Inspector Zenigata is a complete joke in this one, he gets no respect. He's been taken off the Lupin case, so he just gets drunk and depressed, and even hangs out with the Lupin gang. At one point he wears an apron and acts like the Lupin gang's butler. This is very out of character, and pretty much sacrilege, though I admit it's a bit amusing.

The movie does have an enjoyable action climax though, and a nice ending.

All in all, this is on the lower end of the Lupin spectrum. For me, it was worth sitting through for some fun moments between the Lupin gang. If you're not a Lupin completist, this one is very skippable.

After signaling a burglar alarm, Lupin and Jigen had to avoid the swarm of police cars. They hid themselves at an old building where they discovered that Zenigata was accompanied by the police who were ordered to let the Inspector handle it alone. Lupin & Jigen suspect that it was a trap. But it was no trap as Zenigata went towards them to announced that the ICPO has taken him off the "Lupin Case". In other words arresting Lupin is no longer his assignment. More sad and sympathetic than Zenigata was before. Lupin decides to help him out. As it be boring in not having "Pops" chasing him around.

Later both Jigen and Lupin learned that Zenigata's new assignment is shutting down an arms merchant/war smuggling organization called "Shot Shell" which is well known in the Black Market. Which is what Lupin decided to do, by negotiating with this secret organization. Not only that but the replacement for the "Lupin Case" is an ex-mercenary named Keith Hayden, who's orders are to rub out Lupin and his comrades. Will Lupin successfully reprise Zenigata's role for Interpol, and will he have a winning chance in defeating Keith? I consider this Lupin TV movie to be higher level than the first 4. As the character designs, and animation style differ from the previous ones. Especially when Fujiko looks more sexy than she did in the earlier TV movies.

Voyage to Danger is a highly recommended anime for those who appreciate Lupin the 3rd. It has Action, explosions, humor, weapons, bomb shells, Submarines, and some unexpected parts too.

My rating is 8/10 just cause it's one my personal Lupin favorites.

Lupin iii film 16

Very forgettable, watch it only if you're a fan. There's some action with the whole squad. Everyone has equal time on screen, but they really did Zenigata dirty on this one. While he collaborates with lupin, he's the weak character that was removed from the job. Fujiko is interesting, as her curves are very exaggerated in this film in particular, and she's pretty merciless when it comes to deceiving. The drawings are probably the only thing that I quite like of this film, they aren't the best but have a unique style as all other Lupin films. Overall it's pretty weak as a film in the Lupin series, like a couple others.
