Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })1979's The Castle of Cagliostro, the first full-length feature film directed and largely written by Green Jacket-era co-director Hayao Miyazaki (pre-Ghibli), is a stand-alone entry in the long-running Lupin III franchise.Lupin and Jigen successfully rob the Casino de Monte-Carlo. Fleeing in their car, they're up to their necks in cash… which Lupin soon realizes is counterfeit. These legendary "Gothic Bills" – counterfeit bills that can pass for real to all but the most trained eye – inspire the duo to visit the tiny European Grand Duchy of Cagliostro, often rumored to be the bills' source, for their next heist.Once Lupin and Jigen cross the border, they end up rescuing a girl in a wedding dress from a group of armed mooks trying to capture her. The girl is Clarisse, the daughter of Cagliostro's late ruling Grand Duke and the betrothed fiancée of the regent and Count of Cagliostro (whose side of the Cagliostro family line oversees and perpetuates the nation's dirty business). A legend says a reunification of the two families will unlock the secret of Cagliostro's lost treasure, which the Count desperately wants. Jigen figures something else is up when he notices Lupin's familiarity with Cagliostro's landmarks, Clarisse, and her mysterious ring.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Certain things are, of course, inevitable: Lupin tries to steal the girl, the treasure, the source of the Gothic Bills, and whatever else he thinks he can get away with; Fujiko is in the castle trying to steal at least one of Lupin's targets; the Count is a formidable villain; and Inspector Zenigata is still trying to hunt Lupin down (though he gets more than he bargained for).Castle of Cagliostro is famous for being Miyazaki's first film, but a couple of its scenes achieved their own fame. The car chase at the beginning of the film was allegedly praised by Steven Spielberg as one of the greatest car chases ever set to film, and he's alleged to have called Cagliostro one of the greatest adventure movies of all time.note  According to various sources (apparently none of whom had anything to do with Manga video's DVD packaging◊), Spielberg never actually saw the film. The other famous scene is the climactic battle-and-chase in Cagliostro's clock tower; at least two groups of American animators have paid direct homage to it.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })In the West, this film has passed through more than a few hands. Game developer Stern used footage of Cagliostro and The Mystery of Mamo to make a laserdisc game Cliff Hanger. Then Asmik got to make another game based entirely on the film for the PlayStation. Cagliostro was then licensed in the early '90s by Streamline Pictures; their DVD release of the film was one of the very first anime released in the format (and one of Streamline's last releases ever). Manga Entertainment picked up the license in 2000 and gave the film a new dub by the Animaze studio (better known for their dubs of Cowboy Bebop and the Ghost in the Shell franchise), then re-released it in 2006 with a boatload of extra content (but an altered opening at TMS's insistence). Discotek Media acquired the license to Cagliostro in 2014 and released both a DVD and Blu-ray (the latter for the first time in the US) in 2015; their release includes both the Streamline and Animaze dubs, re-translated subtitles for the film, and a re-creation of the original subtitles used in TMS's 1980 theatrical release of the film in the United States. A "family-friendly" version of the Manga dub was also created specifically for this release. A few months later, Disney released the Streamline dub as part of their Miyazaki box set, with Discotek's permission.All tropes not specific to this film are listed on the franchise's main page. All characters not specific to this film are listed on the franchise's Characters page.Complete spoilers lie below, so don't read further if you don't want to know how this caper turns out!

Runaway Fiancé: See above. Clarisse bailed when the guards left her room to allow her to change into her wedding dress (presumably to rehearse the ceremony). But in spite of Lupin's efforts, she is recaptured, and this time imprisoned in a tall tower.

Little Brother Is Watching: Possibly the reason why Lupin Did Not Get the Girl. At the end of the movie, Clarisse hugs Lupin tight and begs to become a thief and leave Cagliostro with him. Lupin visibly trembles before pushing her away gently. Did he not want her to move to the dark side? Or was she just his Girl of the Week? Or maybe he was in pain from her hugging his wounds again?

comment
Master Forger: The MacGuffin that starts the plot and occasionally is referenced are the "Goat Bills", created in secret inside of the titular castle by the evil branch of the country's royal family with quite the Historical Rap Sheet (being allegedly one of the main reasons The Great Depression happened, among others). The operation has been going for so long that the Bills have achieved a legendary status as being virtually impossible to distinguish from the real deal (unless you are just that good at spotting them, like Lupin is). Lupin forges a duplicate of Princess Clarisse's silver ring, incorporating a two-way radio, self-destruct, and confetti inside as well. Count Cagliostro doesn't even notice until Lupin makes use of the radio function to reassure the Princess that he wasn't killed.

Gentleman Thief: This is played straight with Lupin, which may come across as strange because he's… Lupin. He's acting this way because he's still grateful to Clarisse for saving his life many years ago. Jigen calls Lupin out on his atypical behavior fairly early in the film. This may be a case of Recursive Adaptation. Miyazaki took more direct inspiration from Maurice Leblanc's novels than he did the Lupin III manga and anime. The same novels that sort of inspired Monkey Punch in the first place.

Stock Clock Hand Hang: During the climax, Big Bad Count Cagliostro catches up to the heroes and captures Princess Clarisse, forcing Lupin to give up the family's royal rings in exchange for her life. But when he doesn't honor his end of the bargain and attempts to off Lupin, Clarisse tries to jump off the tower and take him down with her. However, the Count stops their fall by jabbing his sword into the tower's stone wall, just above the giant clock hand. While hanging, he kicks off Clarisse before climbing back onto the tower to solve the riddle behind his family's long-lost treasure.

Ambiguously Brown: Inspector Zenigata is noticeably more brown than his police companions, despite still being clearly Japanese. Amusing when Lupin disguises himself as Zenigata, because he can apparently create the square jaw and ruddy-face without a Latex Perfection mask. Similar tones are used for Gustav, also without any real explanation.

 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_25208c30
comment
Go Through Me: Clarisse does this twice for Lupin at different points during the film. The first happens near the midpoint, after Lupin's been shot and left critically wounded, by Jodo. Not only does she prevent him from falling to his death, she tells Cagliostro that if he intended to kill Lupin, he'd have to kill her too. Cagliostro responds by having Jodo open fire, with each shot narrowly missing by inches. Clarisse doesn't budge, despite fearing for both their lives. At the film's climax, Cagliostro prepares to fire at Lupin as he hangs from a ledge of the castle's clock tower. Clarisse literally leaps to his rescue, by jumping from the tower and attempting to take Cagliostro with her, complete with a Big "NO!".

Trap Door
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_27fdc960
comment
Trap Door: The titular castle is rife with secret passages, Portrait Painting Peepholes, and of course trap doors. The trap doors all dump their victims into the same vast cistern; after several centuries of use, it's not a fun place to be. When Lupin pays Clarisse a visit, the Count's men subtly herd him to the room's trap door and drop him like a bad habit. The castle has one that's an actual trap in the main entrance hall. It's even hooked up to a fake bust that spits out pictures, Polaroid style, of whoever it drops into the dungeon (poor Zenigata gets to be the film's demonstration). Lupin, thus informed, manages to turn it on Jodo and Gustav. The Count is merely amused when he sees the picture of them nearly falling in and commends Jodo for confirming that the trap works. When the Gothic Bills are burned in the basement, the trap doors become chimneys, and the smoke pours from random bits of the entire castle.

Bilingual Bonus
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_294ed981
comment
Bilingual Bonus: The unusual case of a bilingual bonus based on English in a foreign film. Miyazaki evidently used gohto (Gothic) as an adjective for the counterfeit bills and the lettering on Clarice's ring in conjunction with the ram as an Arc Symbol relating to the Cagliostro royal family as a stealth pun on "goat" – an English word that sounds absolutely nothing like the Japanese word for goat, "yagi". Since puns don't translate well, this led to "Gothic" getting Lost in Translation as early translations of the movie called them "Goat bills" and "Goat lettering". invoked A related Genius Bonus (and almost a Woolseyism had translators not misinterpreted what Miyazaki was going for) from the Animaze dub if you know Latin. "Goat lettering" was adapted into "Capran", as goats belong to the genus Capra.

Damsel out of Distress
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_2b49eaf
comment
Damsel out of Distress: Clarisse managed to escape from a castle surrounded by lasers, participated in a car chase, saved Lupin's life several times (by way of shoving him out of the way of gunfire and throwing her body on a gun and knocking it aside), said she was "not really" afraid when they were being peppered with gunfire, and shoved the Count off the clock tower when she saw her chance – and she was willing to become a thief to boot. A lone woman facing down a Nebulous Evil Organisation run by a Manipulative Bastard with an army of Elite Mooks (which took Lupin's team and an entire army of Interpol agents to bring down)? As Lupin said, she was a brave girl.

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism

Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: Lupin is normally planted pretty firmly on the cynical side, but Miyazaki slid him to the side of idealism. This can be jarring to viewers who are introduced to Lupin here, then watch his usual jerkass antics in any of his other movies or series (to say nothing of the extremely raunchy and cynical manga) – even though the film goes out of its way to show Lupin has a reason for being better behaved than usual.

Ramen Slurp: The cheap ramen eaten by Zenigata and his police force are contrasted with the fancy meals enjoyed by Count Cagliostro. Lupin and Jigen are shown eating spaghetti the same way earlier (as well as eating cup-noodles themselves as Zenigata pulls up to the castle – you can see the instant udon bowls in the back of their car along with the other supplies in the early driving scenes, and Jigen catches one that falls out of their gear as they're loading up the car to chase after the burning autogyro).

Two Halves Make a Plot
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_43e50d1c
comment
Two Halves Make a Plot: Central to the plot are two rings owned respectively by Princess Clarisse and her uncle, Count Cagliostro. Their faces are identical save their color - Clarisse's is blue, the Count's is red. Each bears a goat's head and an inscription in a dead language called "Capran"; "When light and shadow are joined once again, it shall be restored. AD 1517." The rings have been passed down for generations on both the "Light" and "Shadow" sides of the family, and the Count believes that means him marrying the Princess. However, Lupin manages to steal the rings at the same time as he steals/rescues Clarisse, and makes the much more obvious conclusion of simply pressing the faces of the rings together, revealing another inscription etched around their joined edges; "When light and shadow are joined, face the Goat on high who faces the sun and tells time, and place me in his eyes." The inscription tells Lupin how to use the two rings to reveal the secret of the Castle of Cagliostro.

Crazy-Prepared: The eponymous castle of the "Shadow" branch of the Cagliostro family is chock full of any and every possible anti-intruder deterrent. Some more modern ones – the lasers and radar – were likely installed by the current Count. However, the presence of multiple trapdoors, 19th-century cannons in the background near the fountain, and of course the oubliette itself housing centuries' worth of bodies, show that these Counts have a long history of being Properly Paranoid.

Affably Evil: Count Cagliostro stradles the bar between this and Faux Affably Evil. On the one hand, he's a Benevolent Boss to his most loyal followers, never punishing them for any of their failures, states that he's willing to compromise with the heroes, and considers Lupin a Worthy Opponent. On the other hand, when he's alone with Clarisse, he makes zero attempts to hide his true motivations for marrying her, even hitting her on several occasions, and becomes more and more nasty over the course of the film.

Pop the Tires: In the opening chase scene, Jigen attempts to shoot out the tires of the henchmen's vehicle. The first time, it's subverted; he hits the tires, but they are a special kind that are impervious to regular bullets. Jigen upgrades his ammo and tries again, this time hitting them and causing the car to immediately spin out and crash into the side of the mountain.

Enemy Mine: Lupin and Zenigata call a truce so they can both get out of the castle dungeon alive and Zenigata can go after the Count for making the Gothic Bills. Given how often they work together in other Lupin titles, though, their teamwork here isn't quite as strange as the trope name implies. Lampshaded by Zenigata who promises to arrest Lupin once they are out of danger.

Friendly Enemy: A bit of a one-sided example between Lupin and Zenigata. Despite the latter's constant attempts of arresting him, Lupin treats Zenigata like an old friend and was the one to propose a truce between them. During the final moments of the film, the groundskeeper remarks that even though he doesn't say it, Zenigata is quite fond of Lupin.

On the other hand, Lupin's happy because he got to rescue a princess, but one might ask why Fujiko was running around the deathtrap castle under the nose of an ancient counterfeiting ring. It was so she could steal the plates from Cagliostro's printing presses - y'know, the ones for counterfeiting money even first-world governments can't tell from the real thing. So she rides off into the sunset with a king's ransom while Lupin continues his Stern Chase from Zenigata.

Chiaroscuro

comment
Chiaroscuro: Thematically, chiaroscuro is also a major element of the plot, with Clarisse's ruling branch of the family representing the light, and the Count's doing-the-dirty-work branch representing the shadow. The hidden treasure is revealed when (the rings of) light and shadow unite. The wedding scene when the "resurrected" Lupin confronts the Count begins with heavy shading; between the bright candles and Clarisse's dress, versus the helmeted Count and his hooded minions. Colour is used to highlight aspects of the scene that would've been hard in pure greyscale, such as the inside of the Count's cloak, and Clarisse's dull eyes.

Villain with Good Publicity: The Count has connections and gets the press to show him as the hero of the wedding day, saving Clarisse from the claws of Lupin, instead of being charged for the counterfeiting.

 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_8b606a51
comment
There Is No Kill Like Overkill: While Jigen cannot be faulted for wanting to upgrade his weaponry after his Magnum revolver failed to put down one of the Count's armored assassins with a point-blank shot to the face, one cannot help but think that maybe immediately escalating to the use of an anti-tank rifle against personal targets at close range was slightly excessive. Even if Jigen somehow managed to use it to blast away armor without ever actually being seen to kill anyone.

Ancient Conspiracy
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_8e5c862
comment
Ancient Conspiracy: The Cagliostro family counterfeiting ring has been screwing with international affairs for at least 400 years - i.e. pretty much since money could be counterfeited. The "ancient conspiracy" angle is Zig-Zagged. Lupin's intent is easily Lost in Translation. In the Streamline dub, he implies they are a global power responsible for many of history's woes. In the Animaze dub, he makes it clear that Cagliostro wasn't actually pulling strings so much as it was serving as a mercenary counterfeiter, making its top-quality forgeries available to anyone willing to pay it enough real money – thus staying too useful to everyone for anyone to want to invade and shut it down. Either way, it's carrying on these activities even into the present-day, as Zenigata discovers when he tries to get Interpol to take action but instead provokes a squabble among various nations' representatives over which other countries are paying for the Cagliostro counterfeits that are flooding their respective countries.

"Blind Idiot" Translation:invoked The Streamline Pictures dub mixes Blind-Idiot with Macekre and Writing Around Trademarks (the LeBlanc estate was still affecting translations). One example is for Zenigata introducing himself to the Count as Inspector Keibu Zenigata. For the record, his actual given name is Kouichi, and keibu is just the Japanese word for "Inspector". But his full name wasn't included in the script – it rarely is – so making "Keibu" his name was a choice minimizing the amount of invention.

Defiant to the End: In the Streamline dub, Lupin's response to the Count pointing out that the thief is surrounded by his forces and likely about to die, "The game ain't over, Count. In fact, it's just beginning!" The Count contradicts that and drops him to his supposed death in the dungeons, but true to Lupin's word, he is just getting started interfering with the villain's plans.

comment
Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: The many quiet scenes of Cagliostro comes from Hayao Miyazaki's desire for "breathing" in a film. They are present to contrast against the tense action scenes, and allow the audience to relax, or fall in love. One special scene in this film is Lupin wandering around a burnt out castle in a contemplative mood (because Lupin is remembering his past) with Jigen wondering what is preoccupying him before demanding an explanation (by strangling him). Another special scene is when Lupin has broken into Clarisse's room and is trying to give her hope that he can help her escape (giving her hope and letting the audience fall in love with her innocence).

Later works have paid homage to several elements of this movie over the years. Given its original poor performance at the box office, it is a bit ironic that Cagliostro has become one of the most shouted-out-to properties in subsequent Lupin specials and movies as people who grew up on Cagliostro themselves get the chance to work on Lupin. Lupin's yellow Fiat has appeared in movies and shows ranging from Cowboy Bebop to Pixar's Cars series. Thanks to this film's influence, if you see a Fiat in an animated work, there's a good chance it's going to be yellow. If you see a car chase in an animated piece, and it takes place on a mountain road, expect it to basically be a remake of this movie's sequence. Especially if it's a Lupin special. Teen Titans is one such example. Episode 24 of Super Dimension Fortress Macross (and thus Robotech) features a brief clip of a video arcade driving game that seems to be based on the Clarisse chase sequence—being played by someone in a suspiciously Lupin-like blue jacket and sideburns. This could be construed as a reference both to Castle of Cagliostro and to the Cliff Hanger laserdisc arcade game based on it – though Cliff Hanger used a joystick and buttons, not a steering wheel. A number of Western animated works paid homage to other parts of this film, too — The Great Mouse Detective and an episode of Batman: The Animated Series homages the clock tower fight. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm included a shot-for-shot remake of part of the aqueduct sequence, and the creative team behind Atlantis: The Lost Empire admitted that part of that film's finalé was inspired by the revelation of the "treasure" in the finale of Cagliostro.

Benevolent Boss: The Count is this to his loyal subjects, so long as they remain loyal. For example, he tells the chief of his counterfeiting operation that he doesn't mind delays in the delivery of his funny money, only that they look as authentic as possible. Also, he shows a remarkable amount of patience towards his close retainer Jodo, expressing mere amusement instead of anger upon seeing photos of Lupin humiliating him and Gustav with one of his own traps and relenting on chewing him out over his failure to stop the fiery sabotage of his counterfeiting operation upon being reminded over the phone that Lupin and Zenigata were about to take Clarisse.

There's no suspicion raised In-Universe for why the Duke might have died in a huge blaze inside his Stone Castle, especially when the Count has a secret army, counterfeiting operations, and is called the "shadow" line of the family. The only member left of the "light" line of the family is Princess Clarisse, and the Count rules as regent in her place.

Bowdlerization: The Discotek Media rerelease includes a "Family Friendly" version of the Animaze dub that removes and replaces as much of the profanity as possible. According to Reed Nelson, a Lupin superfan involved in the localization of many of Discotek's Lupin titles, this censored dub was created specifically for this release in order to bring the movie closer in tone to both the original Japanese script and Miyazaki's Disney-released Ghibli movies. The uncensored Animaze dub is still included.

The MacGuffin that starts the plot and occasionally is referenced are the "Goat Bills", created in secret inside of the titular castle by the evil branch of the country's royal family with quite the Historical Rap Sheet (being allegedly one of the main reasons The Great Depression happened, among others). The operation has been going for so long that the Bills have achieved a legendary status as being virtually impossible to distinguish from the real deal (unless you are just that good at spotting them, like Lupin is).

Reverse Cerebus Syndrome: Hayao Miyazaki continued to tone down Lupin III from the raunchier, more manic version depicted in the manga, making him much Lighter and Softer. As a result, the film flopped in Japan when it was first released – the people who liked Lupin III for what it was were turned off, and the people who didn't like Lupin III didn't have any reason to watch the movie. It was only in later years, when Miyazaki gained recognition for his original works and more people watched the movie without any prior Lupin experience, that it belatedly gained a reputation as a classic.

Could Have Been Messy: Goemon slices and dices with his metal-cutting katana and Jigen blasts away with an anti-tank rifle, yet neither one of them is ever actually seen to kill anyone with said weapons. Even when Jigen shoots out a car's tire with his Magnum, we see thugs go flying but not actually any dying. Averted with Lupin's wounds and the deaths of the Count and his thug in the clock tower.

Lost in Translation
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_b7920c43
comment
Lost in Translation: Early fansub translators and even seasoned translator Neil Nadelman managed to miss that gohto in the description of the forged bills and the language on the rings refers not to the English "Goat", but to Gothic – as in the ancient East Germanic language whose writing system was essentially a mishmash of Greek, Latin, and a couple of Runes. They were apparently confused by Miyazaki's use of goats as an Arc Symbol resulting in a bilingual Stealth Pun. Thus we got the famous "Goat-Bills" and "Goat Letters" ("Capran" in the Animaze dub, itself a pun on the scientific name for the genus goats belong to). It wasn't until 2014, when Discotek hired veteran pro Shoko Ōno to redo the translation, that the error was noticed and corrected. Translation liner notes were included on the disc explaining the whole thing.

The "ancient conspiracy" angle is Zig-Zagged. Lupin's intent is easily Lost in Translation. In the Streamline dub, he implies they are a global power responsible for many of history's woes. In the Animaze dub, he makes it clear that Cagliostro wasn't actually pulling strings so much as it was serving as a mercenary counterfeiter, making its top-quality forgeries available to anyone willing to pay it enough real money – thus staying too useful to everyone for anyone to want to invade and shut it down. Either way, it's carrying on these activities even into the present-day, as Zenigata discovers when he tries to get Interpol to take action but instead provokes a squabble among various nations' representatives over which other countries are paying for the Cagliostro counterfeits that are flooding their respective countries.

Shout-Out
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: As a bona-fide animation classic, it works both ways. Shout-outs the movie makes to other things: The title itself: the original Arsène Lupin books had an encounter with La Dame de Cagliostro. But that means that Clarisse and Lupin are third-cousins. Miyazaki's confessed admiration for the French animated classic The King and the Mockingbird can be seen from the humongous trap-filled castle to the elaborate elevators. The film contains a number of "shout-outs" to Miyazaki's own previous work in the first TV series with Isao Takahata. The plot structure of the movie borrows heavily from its tenth episode – which also involved counterfeiting and a clock tower – and there are a number of callbacks to other episodes as well; anyone who had seen the first series would have had ample reason for nostalgia. Lupin's iconic yellow Fiat 500*  (rarely seen in the first Lupin "Green Jacket" series, which preferred to show him driving his Benz SSK instead; it only became more common in the second "Red Jacket" series that began running in 1977 – Cagliostro came out in 1979) was the car driven in real life by chief animator Yasuo Ohtsuka. Clarisse's Citroën CV was Miyazaki's car during that time. Later works have paid homage to several elements of this movie over the years. Given its original poor performance at the box office, it is a bit ironic that Cagliostro has become one of the most shouted-out-to properties in subsequent Lupin specials and movies as people who grew up on Cagliostro themselves get the chance to work on Lupin. Lupin's yellow Fiat has appeared in movies and shows ranging from Cowboy Bebop to Pixar's Cars series. Thanks to this film's influence, if you see a Fiat in an animated work, there's a good chance it's going to be yellow. If you see a car chase in an animated piece, and it takes place on a mountain road, expect it to basically be a remake of this movie's sequence. Especially if it's a Lupin special. Teen Titans is one such example. Episode 24 of Super Dimension Fortress Macross (and thus Robotech) features a brief clip of a video arcade driving game that seems to be based on the Clarisse chase sequence—being played by someone in a suspiciously Lupin-like blue jacket and sideburns. This could be construed as a reference both to Castle of Cagliostro and to the Cliff Hanger laserdisc arcade game based on it – though Cliff Hanger used a joystick and buttons, not a steering wheel. A number of Western animated works paid homage to other parts of this film, too — The Great Mouse Detective and an episode of Batman: The Animated Series homages the clock tower fight. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm included a shot-for-shot remake of part of the aqueduct sequence, and the creative team behind Atlantis: The Lost Empire admitted that part of that film's finalé was inspired by the revelation of the "treasure" in the finale of Cagliostro.

Dub Name Change
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_e2c4b927
comment
Dub Name Change: Since Monkey Punch never gained permission from the estate of Maurice Leblanc to use the name Lupin, this created a copyright problem. Public Domain laws differ by country, so the name was able to be used in Japan freely, but not in America or Europe. As a result, the 1992 Streamline dub has everyone refer to Lupin as "The Wolf". By the time Manga Entertainment redubbed the anime in 2000, Leblanc's works were undeniably Public Domain in the USA and TMS knew it, so they simply used "Lupin".

This may be a case of Recursive Adaptation. Miyazaki took more direct inspiration from Maurice Leblanc's novels than he did the Lupin III manga and anime. The same novels that sort of inspired Monkey Punch in the first place.

Exact Words: The film's Darkest Hour ends when Fujiko telephones Inspector Zenigata about a critical fact – Lupin is planning to be at the Count's wedding… and although the cop is off the counterfeiting case, his standing orders to arrest the thief anywhere in the world are still in force.

Worthless Treasure Twist
 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_edf841f6
comment
Worthless Treasure Twist: The big "Treasure of Cagliostro" that the Count was after turns out to be a beautiful ancient Roman city, well-preserved at the bottom of a man-made lake; Clarisse's ancestors flooded it to prevent barbarians from sacking it. It's obviously something of incalculable value to Clarisse's country and will be cherished by archaeologists and historians, but it's just as obviously not something a Gentleman Thief can swipe. Lupin promptly lampshades it; "This is a treasure for all mankind. Too big for my pocket, anyway." On the other hand, Lupin's happy because he got to rescue a princess, but one might ask why Fujiko was running around the deathtrap castle under the nose of an ancient counterfeiting ring. It was so she could steal the plates from Cagliostro's printing presses - y'know, the ones for counterfeiting money even first-world governments can't tell from the real thing. So she rides off into the sunset with a king's ransom while Lupin continues his Stern Chase from Zenigata.

Two-Faced Aside: After being cornered on the roof by the Count and his men, Clarisse offers to surrender her ring to him on the condition they let Lupin and Fujiko go. Cagliostro pretends to agree to these terms. Yet when the Count's right hand man Jodo raises concern, the Count replies low enough so only Jodo can hear him, "When she moves away, shoot 'em".

 The Castle of Cagliostro / int_fb741fa4
comment
Lull Destruction: The Streamline dub is somewhat notorious for this, adding expository dialogue into normally quiet scenes. Inverted at least once in the same dub when, at the point where Jigen's supposed to complain about him and Goemon not being able to do anything before the gang was forced to retreat, he says nothing. The Manga/Animaze dub does this as well, but only a couple of times, such as when Lupin is reading aloud Japanese text that was accompanied by silence in the original, or a little extra bickering between Lupin and Jigen.

Ephebophile: In the Japanese version, Lupin accuses the Count of this in the wedding scene, using the Japanese word "lolicon," before he sets off the stock of fireworks hidden in his archbishop's robes. Considering that Clarisse is around 18, he's probably being facetious and just trying to get under the Count's skin. Though it's a June-December wedding in any case – what Westerners would, in similar style, call "robbing the cradle". It works.

Instant Dogend: All of Jigen's smokes are battered and bent before he takes his first puff. Only some of Lupin's are. This detail is a Call-Back to a story in the manga (partly adapted in the "Green Jacket" anime Miyazaki worked on) where Zenigata realizes Lupin is nearby because of a cigarette butt – Lupin smokes an expensive import brand no one else is known to use.

The first happens near the midpoint, after Lupin's been shot and left critically wounded, by Jodo. Not only does she prevent him from falling to his death, she tells Cagliostro that if he intended to kill Lupin, he'd have to kill her too. Cagliostro responds by having Jodo open fire, with each shot narrowly missing by inches. Clarisse doesn't budge, despite fearing for both their lives.

Shown Their Work: Every vehicle or gun seen in this movie, even those shown for only split seconds that you have to freeze-frame to see, were either exact replications of real-world or based on real-world designs. This was actually on the orders of producer Yasuo Ohtsuka (and has been followed since he oversaw "Green Jacket"), though Miyazaki prefers grounding things in realism just as much.
