| Great! Many people would like to see Lupin's past! |
 |
| Wonder what Koike's upto |
| Yahoo! More Lupin is always a good thing. And another origin story to boot. Yuji Ohno sadly isn't involved with the music this time, but the music in the trailer still sounds like the classic Lupin series, so it should be fine. |

| Last minute announcements rarely promise anything good. I fear this will be yet another soulless streaming platform project to meet the quota. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| The amount of staff returning from Parts 4 and 5 is a huge relief after Part 6. Ichiro Okouchi clearly had more plans for Lupin after Part 5, so I’m excited to see his take on a Lupin III origin story. I love how much this takes influence from Part 1 in terms of art and music too. |
| Interesting. Lupin's past has always been shrouded in mystery so I'm curious see what kind of person he was before he became a legendary thief. |

| Nice to see staff return from part 5. I wonder if this project is connected to the story involving Albert in part 5, or if it's unrelated. With parts 5 and 6 aggressively alluding to a younger Lupin, I guess this project existing makes chronological sense. Young Lupin's hair looks good, I always wonder if Lupin has short hair or slicked back hair. Also the older woman in the trailer looks like Fujiko. I wonder if Jigen, Goemon, Fujiko and Lupin are going to the same Middle school or something, as a school building can be seen in the trailer and Lupin is wearing a school uniform. Though this would make no sense, I think it woud be kind of comedic. I guess seeing a younger Zenigat, is going to be cool. |

| I'm down to watch this even though I think it's not needed |
| Will Ichiro Okouchi write this? Okay, I'm ready for another toxic parents, references to English literature and homoerotic friendship.

Well, that explains why the last part had a toxic father and a subplot with teenagers. This dude is really like Stephen King with his cliches. |

I know about cognitive bias, where things mistakenly seem obvious after you've learned about them, but damn. It starts to scare me that I'm starting to become a regular viewer of this dude. |

| Interesting, but scary |
| May be some anime? |
| Aw, baby Lupin. Could be neat. |
