Together, they work to unlock the secret of Bresson's Diary and the mysterious treasure.Along the way, they get caught up with Nazis and Interpol and discover a secret that could change the world.Released in Japan in December 2019, Lupin III: The First, was the first Lupin III theatrical production to be announced after creator Kazuhiko Kat�'s passing. GKIDS picked up the film for release in North America in autumn 2020. | |

Honor Among Thieves | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_128e9efd | comment |
Honor Among Thieves: Fujiko is known for the double-cross, but she still comes through to save Lupin's tail more often than not. Jigen and Goemon are loyal to Lupin even when his schemes end up with them in mortal peril. Even before he knows her name, Lupin saves Laetitia from falling to her death and allows himself to be captured to ensure that she escapes the police in France. | |

We Have Ways of Making You Talk: Lupin threatens Laetitia this way when she insists on withholding information from him. He tries to make a move on her, but when she points out that he's the world's greatest thief, he grumpily relents. | |

Dressing as the Enemy: Lupin and Jigen do this near the film's climax. It doesn't take Jigen much effort to impersonate someone in a suit, as he's already wearing a similar suit. As for Lupin, well, that's a different story altogether. | |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: A Mook is killed by The First Trial. The failure to get through results in the guy being crushed by two Artificial Gravity devices embedded in the corridor, basically flattening him into nothing. Gerard's death when he plummets into the black hole Lupin generated to destroy the Eclipse. We don't see anything, but Lupin's face says it all. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: This isn't first time Lupin and the gang have had to go after an artifact that turned out to be a micro black hole generator. Bonus points for the previous time being in Lupin III: the Last Job. Swimming midair seems to be a thing for Lupin and his friends. This isn't the last time Jigen uses a PTRS-41 for dealing with armored mooks or vehicles tougher than your average sedan. Dodging the blasts of a deadly Laser Hallway is a callback to The Mystery of Mamo, the first Lupin III motion picture. Lupin's attire in this movie (red jacket, yellow tie, black shirt and black pants) is also the same he wore in Mamo. Tricking Nazis by dressing up as Hitler may sound familiar, too. Zenigata identifies Goemon's Zantetsuken as a "Ryusei-ken", a sword forged from a falling star. "Ryusei" was the name of Goemon's sword in Monkey Punch's original Lupin III manga, which has the same origin. | |

When Goemon pulls his signature move on a police van, it stays intact until after he sheathes Zantetsuken. Then the van splits in half, both halves teetering about, then crashing and exploding after Lupin escapes. | |

Booby Trap | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_2da1421 | comment |
Booby Trap: The Bresson Diary's protective casing is designed to self destruct if anyone tries to unlock it but can't enter a password within a minute. Interpol created fake images of an elderly Hitler to flush Nazis out of hiding. This one worked perfectly. In a more literal example, Fujiko takes advantage of her physique to distract and take down several guards. | |

Two-Keyed Lock: Subverted. The medallions Lupin and Laetitia have serve as keys to the Bresson Diary, but they are both half of one key. Though there is a second locking mechanism - the combined keys form the dial for a combination lock. The combination is L-A-E-T-I-T-I-A. | |

Piggybacking on Hitler: While Gerard is a true-believer in restoring the Third Reich to its former glory, Lambert ends up renouncing his ties to Ahnenerbe (possibly due to Gerard's constant condescension toward him prompting a Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal) and megalomaniacally seeking to use the Eclipse weapon to take over the world for himself single-handedly. He then dies Taking the Bullet for his adopted (grand)daughter Laetitia when Gerard attempts to eliminate her. | |

Grievous Harm with a Body | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_6377d6e6 | comment |
Grievous Harm with a Body: During the attack on the Third Reich's island base, Zenigata throws a pair of handcuffs attached to a rope to catch a Mook's wrists. Then tugging on the rope, he pulls the Mook forward to crash into the rest of the attacking party. | |

Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite how harsh Lambert is to Laetitia, he does show from time to time to actually care for her but his pride and jealousy of her skills doesn't let him show it. He clearly tries to stop Gerard from throwing her out of the plane by claiming she could still be useful and later takes a bullet for her. | |

Ivy League for Everyone | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_6b3c357e | comment |
Ivy League for Everyone: Notably averted. Laetitia is aiding her grandfather's scheme in the hopes of him backing her college application, but instead of going for an Ivy League school or the Japanese standard of Todai, she's trying to get into Boston University. Lambert has no intention of letting her become an accredited archeologist in her own right while he's around to take credit for her work, but Lupin steals her admission thesis and submits it for her, and hands her the acceptance letter her efforts earned her shortly before they part ways. | |

My Greatest Failure: Lupin is after the Bresson Diary because it's the first thing anyone in the Lupin family ever failed to steal. Then it turns out that the reason why Lupin I failed to steal the diary is because he never tried - he built the lockbox the diary was stored in to keep other people from stealing it. | |

His refusal to believe or accept that Hitler is dead directly results in him walking into a trap and dying to his own stolen weaponry. | |

Apocalypse Hitler | |
| Lupin III: The First / int_885c76c2 | comment |
Apocalypse Hitler: Ahnenerbe has been desperately trying to locate Hitler after acquiring a photo of him still alive in South America. Later when Gerard acquires the Eclipse, he gets a message from the Ahnenerbe that they have found Hitler, and they have him ready to start the Third Reich anew. The overjoyed Gerard delivers the Eclipse to Hitler himself, and shows him how to operate it. So, Hitler is back... and he has personal control of the greatest weapon of mass destruction in existence. The world is completely screwed right? Nope! "Hitler" rips off his mask and reveals that he was Lupin in disguise the whole time, taunting Gerard that the photo was faked by Interpol to draw out Nazi sympathizers, and his precious Führer killed himself in 1945. | |

Guns Do Not Work That Way: When Fujiko yanks a Lewis Gun off its ring mount, she's holding the exposed barrel and gas tube like a rifle's handguard. The gun's pan magazine is also not rotating while she's firing upon mooks, which should tick off quite a few firearms experts. Gerard's C96 does not have a single-action/double-action trigger, meaning that it shouldn't do useless hammer clicking just from pulling the trigger if the magazine and chamber were emptied. | |

Toon Physics: PLENTY! This is a Lupin film! When Goemon pulls his signature move on a police van, it stays intact until after he sheathes Zantetsuken. Then the van splits in half, both halves teetering about, then crashing and exploding after Lupin escapes. Lupin "sky-swimming" to grab onto an airplane. Lupin survives falling from an airplane and crashing into the ground face-first. Admittedly, he didn't crash from a great height. | |

Hypocritical Humor: Early on, Lupin tells Jigen and Goemon that he won't share the treasure of Bresson's diary since they refuse to help him. When they meet again, Jigen puts Lupin in a headlock for wanting to keep all the treasure to himself. Not only did Lupin tell him that's what he was going to do in the first place for them refusing to help him, but points out they only saved him because they want the treasure, too. | |

Yes, Gerard, Hitler really has been conveniently proven alive right after you gain sole access to the Eclipse device, and he absolutely wants to meet you in an isolated location. This is definitely not a trick. | |
