In this episode of Legacy of Lupin, we take a look at the most well-known Lupin adventure and Miyazaki’s last contribution to the series, The Castle of Cagliostro. Releasing just one year after Mystery of Mamo, this movie is a complete tonal shift and is one of the tamest, most gentle Lupin stories to date. While some within the fandom decry it for softening the series, it’s generally regarded as a masterpiece and has been cited as a major influence on other anime producers and Western filmmakers. How well does it hold up nowadays? Let’s find out. #LupinTheThird #LupinIII #CastleofCagliostro
