Lupin III's 5th Anime Series Reveals Additional Cast, April 3 Debut

Lupin III: Part IV, the first Lupin III television anime series in three decades to star the titular character, premiered in Japan in October 2015, after first premiering as Lupin III – L’avventura Italiana on Italian television on August 29, 2015.

It also inspired the Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine television anime series and live-action adaptations, including 2014’s live-action film.

Monkey Punch’s Lupin III manga about the titular thief’s escapades inspired four previous television anime series, several theatrical anime films, and a near-annual string of television anime specials.
