In this hair-raising chase scene from LUPIN III: THE FIRST, Jigen and Goemon spring Lupin from the clutches of Zenigata and his minions. Watch out Lupin, it's gonna be a bumpy ride! 🚨💥

The iconic “gentleman thief” Lupin III returns in an action-packed, continent-spanning adventure, as Lupin III and his colorful underworld companions race to uncover the secrets of the mysterious Bresson Diary, before it falls into the hands of a dark cabal that will stop at nothing to resurrect the Third Reich. The gang undertakes trap-filled tombs, aerial escapades and daring prison escapes with the trademark wit and visual finesse that have made LUPIN THE 3RD one of the most storied animation franchises in the world, in a thrilling new caper that is sure to delight fans old and new.

Can we talk about Jigen’s driving in this scene? He checks his mirror before he fires his gun, and checks behind him to make sure he’s not gonna run into anyone.

[DuTrom]

So to pull off that stunt, Jigen would have to know:
- Where the bolts on the sign are
- Which direction they're threaded
- How fast his bullets travel
- Which bolts to shoot first
If that doesn't illustrate how good a marksman Jigen is, nothing will.

This scene is perfect. You learn exactly what kind of movie this is and the rules the world plays by (realistic enough to shoot out tires, unrealistic enough that a sword can cut through a van), you learn about Zenigata's relationship with Lupin (the marker thing), you learn about Lupin's friends and their skills, and you learn that Zenigata is very familiar with the gang. It's just...flawless.

Ok, so I've never ever watched Lupin III but this scene is absolutely excellent. You could open the movie on this scene and I'd be 100% up to speed on all these characters, their personalities, their relationships and their situation.

Man, CGI hasn't looked this good in a while.

Top 3 Jigen flexes:

3: Winning a 1 v 50 against a heavily armed Interpol convoy that had helicopters and APCs all while completely unscathed
2: shooting a bolt off of a sniper rifle from a quarter mile away while making the jolt from the impact slightly move the gun right as the sniper was about to shoot Lupin and instead hit an enemy
1: shooting the screws off of a sign while driving a car in reverse using only a rear view mirror to see

Nobody screams “LUPIN” better than Pops 😂

Seeing this in theaters was amazing!!! The sound design, animation, music, the visual exposition in this scene alone was just excellent.

[JamesZ]

I love how they paid attention to details, especially the attention of only using 6 shots and not infinite ammo that's reloaded without us seeing it

[lucariosom]

I love how the little detail in 0:43 where Jigen looks back to not hit a car.

[thesidemen]

The revolver was fired 6 times, accurate to the number of bullets in the cylinder. That's impressive.

“Just be glad we even bothered to come after you, Lupin.” - Daisuke Jigen.

[cudak]

0:29 - Give the sound engineer a raise for letting us all know that Fiat 500 has a turbo with that deft little dump valve SFX. Yet another little detail that makes this outing that much more spectacular. Fantastic.

[roam]

0:48 if that isn't a massive flex, then I don't know what is

[cabnbeeschurgr]

Jigen: literally destroying an entire convoy with a six-shooter
Music: Elevator ride

[Circuitssmith]

Every object from the character's physical bodies down to the vehicles and bullets looks alive, there's this incredible energy in the way things move.

[Nicomanism]

Nobody can do a better Lupin impression than Tony Oliver himself.

[codyjames]

I love the way they reveal Jigen and Goemon at 0:20. It's like they knew people would be anticipating them so they knew to give them a badass entrance.

[Dungydungbeetleboi]

I remember this part in the movie, I just loved how it had the Cagliostro Car Chase music in it, so awesome!

I know this series is really old, but something about this 3D adaptation makes it feel very Team Fortress-y and I like it. The art style, the music, the ridiculous scenarios, they way all the characters are these exaggerated stereotypes of themselves that feel like they could be alternate TF2 classes.
