Lupin III: The Pursuit of Harimao's Treasure

The Lupin III franchise has had more than its fair share of James Bond references. This film makes the connection more transparent and has a spy character with a Walter PPK who apparently was the "real world" inspiration for Ian Fleming's spy. Only fitting that his name is Archer.

This is one of the most generic Lupin III films. There is very little that makes this one stand out from the rest. The animation isn't consistent, they will occasionally cut to a freeze frame. The darker shadows and contrast make for a cool looking film. Fujiko shines as her duplicitous self. The action feels more brutal than your typical Lupin adventure.

If you haven't seen 39 other Lupin III movies, you'll probably like this one fine. But as far as striking gold, keep searching, that treasure isn't here.

This was a really fun adventure film to watch. It takes place in many parts of Europe to find the statues, with lots of action. As someone else said there's a lot of Indiana jones and james bond vibes. I liked the fact that Goemon works as a mercenary in this film, and has some funny moments. Also pretty cool that the 2 teams end up cooperating for the treasure. As for the villain, a misogynist homosexual guy, it really caught me off guard.

This Lupin anime is very cool to watch. Not only is he in Europe but is also hunting down these 3 statues to unlock the ancient "Harimao's Treasure".

Not only is there Booby traps, puzzles, and a young female archaeologist. There's a band of Nazis trying to get the treasure for themselves. And their leader is very freaky looking.

I won't give out what Harimao's Treasure is, so you gotta see it for yourself. This is another fine Lupin anime to watch. And has plenty of funny parts in it too.

I give it 8/10
