Released in 2015, Lupin III - L'avventura Italiana (Lupin III - The Italian Adventure) is the first series to star Lupin III in over 30 years (though the Spin-Off / Prequel Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine did air three years prior). It is preceded by 1984's Lupin III: Part III and followed by 2018's Lupin III: Part 5. The show is also notable for airing in Italy before its Japanese debut largely as a thank you to the country for their support of the franchise. TMS Entertainment again handles animation duties along with Telecom Animation Film.Set in the Present Day, Arsène Lupin III and his gang are hanging out in Italy and San Marino, planning heist after heist. Lupin has picked up a new Love Interest by the name of Rebecca Rossellini, an adrenaline junkie who just started to pick up Phantom Thief habits for the stimulation. The first episode has Rebecca marry Lupin, and immediately out-thief him for the San Marino crown, leaving him skydiving without a parachute to spend the honeymoon by herself. What more shenanigans can this crew accomplish with their newest member?It aired in Italy for 26 episodes on the Italia 1 channel between August 30, 2015 and November 30, 2015, while in Japan it aired for 24 episodes (two episodes broadcast exclusively in Italy, and only getting released in Japan as part of the home release) on NTV between October 1, 2015 and March 17, 2016. Crunchyroll streamed the Japanese audio version under the title Lupin the Third Part 4, and Discotek Media put out the series on home video in 2017, albeit with the Japanese and English-dubbed versions being released as two separate Blu-Ray sets (due in part to the dubbed version being based on the extended Italian airing). The English dub premiered on [adult swim]/Toonami on June 17, 2017, and is also available for streaming on Funimation, two weeks behind the Toonami broadcast you can also find it on TMS Entertainment's Youtube channel. | |

Little Miss Badass | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_166e33f3 | comment |
Little Miss Badass: Belladonna, the young assassin from Goemon's debut episode. She can not only Dodge the Bullet from one of the best snipers in the world and carry a sniper rifle almost as big as herself rather casually, but demonstrated herself to be respectable enough despite her young age to be among the twelve top assassins in an assassination job years prior when she was likely fourteen or so at the time. Being a Child Soldier raised from near-death on the streets by the biggest politician in Italy who gave them the mission helped, but it was also likely that she was there to figure out how to kill the rest of the assassins afterwards. | |

Underestimating Badassery: In "From Japan With Love", once Akechi has Lupin, he brushes off Fujiko as a small fry who can't fight without Lupin to help her. If the Lupin III franchise has taught us anything, underestimating Fujiko Mine is the one thing you don't want to do; the whole episode past that point is her proving this with a vengeance. | |

| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Nyx snaps after Rebecca admits that she kidnapped his daughter to "keep her mouth shut." He takes this as an indication that Rebecca murdered the girl when in reality, she meant that she had her sent away on an expensive shopping trip in order to bribe her into keeping silent about what she had witnessed. If Lupin hadn't cleared things up, judging from Nyx's reaction, he would have killed Rebecca. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Quite a few given the franchise's history. The opening sequence features Lupin's gang in poses taken from their animated show/film debuts: Fujiko in the shower from the Red Jacket series, Goemon in the forest from the Green Jacket series and Lupin and Jigen in a Fiat from the Cagliostro film. Once again, a Lupin III series has its first episode start with one of the main characters getting married. Episode 3 makes reference to a fragment of Marie Antoinette's necklace being stolen and hidden by one Count Cagliostro, a reference to The Castle of Cagliostro. It should be noted that the series specifically references the historical Alessandro Cagliostro (the likely model for the film's eponymous antagonist), an 18th-century conman who did really get tried and imprisoned for having contributed to the so-called 'Affair of the Diamond Necklace', a fraud case involving Marie-Antoinette. The whole story is wonderfully crazy and convoluted, and wouldn't feel out of place as a Lupin episode. Another Call-Back occurs in episode 13, wherein Fujiko and Goemon express perplexity at Lupin talking in his sleep and Jigen outright saying Lupin doesn't dream, which serves as a reference to The Mystery of Mamo, wherein the titular antagonist discovered that Lupin's subconscious was a void and that he did not appear to dream at all. During an Eye Catch between commercial breaks, Lupin disguises himself as Kyosuke Mamo, a recurring villain from the earlier series. | |

Mugged for Disguise | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_3403abfc | comment |
Mugged for Disguise: In the first episode, Zenigata suspects that Mr. Lionello, one of the bosses with access to the Crown of Liberty, is Lupin in disguise. This is disproved when the real Lupin shows up. In a subversion, it turns out that "Mr. Lionello" is actually Fujiko in disguise, while the real Mr. Lionello is hidden Bound and Gagged somewhere. Lupin's habit of doing this backfires when he's arrested, as it's used to apply the 41-bis prison regime on him. Zig-zagged to all hell in "From Japan With Love". Zenigata comes to pick up Lupin from Akechi in prison, Akechi believes this is Fujiko is disguise and tries to prove it, can't prove it, and lets the two go in a converted tank for prisoner transport. Only to find Zenigata tied up in the prison's bathroom. Akechi and his Zenigata tail Lupin and his Zenigata and stop the tank. Akechi goes after Lupin's Zenigata, only to find he is the real one, and Fujiko tied herself up disguised as the second Zenigata in order to get to Lupin. | |

However, in "World Dissection, Part 1", he engages in a duel with Leonardo Da Vinci using a rapier against a falchion and still wins despite the handicap. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Lupin's arrest provides two cases: Zenigata is unable to bring him to Japan using his ICPO authority to extradite criminals to trial, as Italian law forbids extradition when the criminal may be executed and Lupin has a death sentence waiting for him there. The prison warden himself informs Zenigata of this. When in jail, Lupin is kept in solitary confinement without contact with the outside. This is a variant of Italy's 41-bis prison regime, originally devised for terrorists and mafia bosses but applied on a case-by-case on dangerous criminals guilty of anything on a particular list of crimes note terrorism, being a mob member or committing crimes with help from the mob, reprehensible crimes as slavery, human trafficking, forcing a minor to prostitution, creating or selling pornographic materials with minors or getting minors to take part in it, gang rape, being part of a gang that smuggles drugs or foreign cigarettes . They also do this for anyone kidnapping for ransom or robbery... and Lupin just happens to have committed the latter multiple times on Italian soil, mainly when he needed to replace someone for more than a couple hours (even if they're fine and he just took their clothes, it's still kidnapping). This also means that Jigen, Goemon and Fujiko can be subjected to the same if they were ever arrested. | |

It eventually leads them to a building where they're offered dinner right below the painting of the real The Last Supper.

"Save the World" Climax: The series starts with Lupin arranging a Sham Marriage to steal a crown and ends with Lupin saving all of Italy, and likely the rest of the world, from an Assimilation Plot involving a clone of Leonardo Da Vinci created from dreams. Definitely a bit of an escalation, there. | |

Surviving this, he then gets to confront Leonardo da Vinci with nothing more than a pistol. The gun backfires due to Leonardo's sabotage of the gun, killing Percival instantly. | |

| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_dcbe8a6e | comment |
During the Mona Lisa heist episode, the real thing is replaced with a copy painted by a street painter. The fact that said copy is almost indistinguishable from the original is a clue to the fact that the street painter actually is Leonardo Da Vinci. | |

Composite Character: The MI6's agent Nyx is basically James Bond with Daredevil's echolocation power. And he claims in Episode 3 that we haven't even seen the full extent of his abilities yet. | |

Bound and Gagged | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_eb28ab57 | comment |
In the first episode, Zenigata suspects that Mr. Lionello, one of the bosses with access to the Crown of Liberty, is Lupin in disguise. This is disproved when the real Lupin shows up. In a subversion, it turns out that "Mr. Lionello" is actually Fujiko in disguise, while the real Mr. Lionello is hidden Bound and Gagged somewhere. | |

Goldfish Poop Gang | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_ecd42310 | comment |
Goldfish Poop Gang: The teachers Lupin has to confront to reclaim an invaluable jewel are utter morons who got themselves in trouble with a biker gang (one of them, Mr. Mario, bumped into the gang's leader by accident in a bar, knocking out his tooth) and are pressured to obtain a lot of money or else they will be killed. They all are so stupid - besides the fact one of them is way more stupid and oblivious - that they violate so many logical approaches to their problems (like calling the police to help or pawning the flawless diamond they randomly found to raise the money they needed in the first place instead of making a bomb that somehow absolutely needed a diamond to work). The less we know about how they actually intended to defend themselves from Lupin, the better. | |

Mister Muffykins: Played with — Josephine the Dachshund seemed to act the type, but in reality she turns out to hate her overly doting owner and literally abandons ship to get away from her. | |

Locked Out of the Loop | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_f06b07ff | comment |
Locked Out of the Loop: Goemon is very upset when he discovers that Lupin is planning to get married and retire from his life of crime. When Jigen later tells him that the wedding was just a cover for a heist, Goemon is even more pissed off. It turns out that the guys couldn't tell Goemon because he's a notoriously Bad Liar, and they needed his reaction to the wedding to seem genuine. | |

Great Detective: The series makes it a point to show that Zenigata has excellent deductive skills. In the fourth episode of the series, he deducts exactly how Jigen wiped out Non-Lethal Eric's gang just by analyzing the evidence on the crime scene. His long experience with Lupin is showcased, as he often has a solid grasp on what the thief's trying to pull on a given heist. | |

Faking the Dead | |
| Lupin III: The Italian Adventure / int_f9876f7e | comment |
Faking the Dead: Lupin pulls it off twice. While locked in a custom-built prison, Lupin convinces Zenigata that he's died from starvation. This means Zenigata must open the cell door to remove the body, giving Lupin a chance to slip away. Lupin's implanted psyche pulls this off to get Da Vinci's implanted psyche off his back so he can get close enough to Rebecca's psyche. | |
