Anime Abandon: The Castle of Cagliostro

[@MadDemon64]

I think the reason why Lupin did what he did to the fake bills and felt the way he felt about them is because he's a thief, not a con-artist. It's basically Lupin's job (at least according to him anyway) to steal valuable items, and he relishes the effort people put into guarding their valuable valuables. But fake bills are by definition completely worthless. They are phony, fraudulent, and completely without value. To a thief who prides himself on his ability to get past the most airtight of securities to steal possessions that are worth more than the economy of most small countries, there is nothing more worthless than an item that pretends to have worth and only exists to perpetuate that lie. At least that's how I see it.

[@nubreed13]

+MadDemon64 he also loves a challenge and there isnt much bigger carrot to dangle than a fortress that nobody has ever escaped alive.

[@Goleon]

You both are right however the biggest reason why he does this is to test his skills and prove to others that yes there basically is nothing he can't steal. As well as for the thrill.

[@stormcutter59]

And it's exactly how I assumed as well. That and i assumed that Lupin wanted to also see Clarice again, as well as just enjoying the challenge and fun of fucking up the Count. Of course these things are all a little later down the line, but considering we were under the impression that Lupin is a changed man now, it was safe of me to assume this.

[@ellnats]

yeah nobody else can tell that they are fake, but he can, so its more a fraud to him then any other

[@Avenger85438]

Sly Cooper and him are two of a kind.

[@johndavidtibbetts7320]

Miyazaki may be a staunch pacifist but when he sets his mind to a final battle the man is unrivaled

[@ChristianNeihart]

David Hayter stole our hearts as Lupin the Third, and then he infiltrated our Alaskan base, fought a dude shirtless atop Metal Gear Rex, got cloned, injected with Nano-machines, son, and all sorts of things that are bound to make a guy go cross eyed, then got screwed over Konami. God bless him. #fucKonami

[@LtBriJMAC]

Lupin the 3rd is amazing it's and this film is the best Lupin film ever. My copy is the streamline pictures dub but this one seems good too

[@TheOtakuKat]

He also was Guyver in Guyver 2 of the live action movies.

[@Toratchi888]

As far as realism goes, while having a trenchcoat, fedora, and mask under a neoprene diving suit might be stretching it, the MythBusters confirmed "Plausible" an old James Bond (Connery-era) trick, where he finished a mission in a dry-suit, swam to land at a private party, and came out with a perfect tux underneath.

[@LupintheThird]

Bennett, we goofed on the credits roll on the DVD. Up through 2014, Richard Epcar was credited as the voice of Jigen on nearly all internet sources, and for whatever reason, we didn't question it until after the DVD was in the can. Michael Gregory wasn't credited anywhere online or on any official credit rolls (everyone used pseudonyms on that dub, after all) until we did the research (with some help from an online enthusiast), confirmed it with Michael personally, and got his nod to fix it for the Blu-ray credits.

[@TheLoneSmoker]

[@Tacom4ster]

The first Lupin movie is bizarre enough for an interesting review

[@tayojones9460]

I want to star watching lupin but I don't know where to start. Can u list some recomendations?

[@Tacom4ster]

Tao Jones T.jones Red Jacket second series dub, it's on Crunchy Roll

[@aceotaku]

GOddamn am I happy you mention the speech, because that is my favourite moment from the movie. Hayter just filled that speech with so much heart and effort you can't help but say it along with him. also, I love how the titular castle DOMINATES most of the film, with only a small handful of scenes not taking palce in or near the castle, and the castle itself is what leads to some memorable scenes, and is perrfectly encapsulated as an impenetrable death trap. Basically, the Castle of Cagliostro is cooler than the death star.

[@FullmetalNinja25]

The moment Discotek released Castle Of Cagliostro on BluRay I bought it no questions asked, I love this Movie both as a Lupin fan and a Miyazaki fan.

[@StealthMarmot_]

"Fuck it! It's Lupin!" Honestly, the beauty of that is that the mere charm and likeability of the character is allowing him to get away with things most other characters would have been called out on and never got away with. Which is pretty much his character to a T.

[@dracostreex1]

cagliostro's count is actually an existing hystorical figure from my city, palermo in italy, cagliostro was actually an alchemist that got condemned by the catholic church to die imprisoned for it.

[@aceotaku]

I can answer both questions about lupin and the money: lupin is, at heart, honourable about his job, and prideful. Stealing fake money is not a worthy achievement in his mind, and completely wastes his talent as a thief. Hell, he steals shit more out of a sense of fun and pride than for monetary gain.

[@planettyro]

[@TheWayoftheSith]

+Ethan Nunofyourbeezewax All hail Samurai Jack's resurrection by the by, expect new episodes :D

[@princeblackelf4265]

+Ethan Nunofyourbeezewax yeah I remember the thief from Samurai Jack as well, but I can't remember if I recognized him as a hybrid of Jigen and Lupin when i first saw him or if I realized later on after I became a lupin fan that "holy crap the thief from samurai jack!" moment

[@salokin3087]

I remember watching this as a wee lad and loving it to bits! You easily approach the movie with little knowledge of anime or Lupin and still come away thoroughly satisfied

[@sugarfrosted2005]

The setting is taken from a fictional country in an Arsene Lupin book "The Countess of Gagliostro", you know Lupin III's grandfather who is mentioned occasionally.

[@Rilly0]

i feel like lupin's a lot like sly from the sly cooper franchise. his motivation isnt to get rich off stealing, but just the fun and sport of a difficult heist. you can kind of see some of that when he's reminiscing about his past break in to cagliostro. its just what he does

[@MrMarket1987]

I often figured that Lupin III really did embody a rather romanticized ideal of adventurous thievery and burglary. Money certainly was something he would often try and steal, but it was more about reaping the rewards of a beaten challenge than simply for the sake of it; He LOVES to be flashy and be met with obstacles about it all, so the bigger and tougher the heist, the more he was attracted by it. Stealing counterfit money, to one like him, isn't nearly as intriguing as finding the source device and prints that made it all into such indistinguishable quality in the first place. An extremely eccentric treasure hunter if there ever was one when he's sometimes satisfied in seeing something most never get to see up close to appraise it, he just happened to come across another interesting adventure at the same time.

[@Vix584]

The Metal Gear Solid jokes and references are just priceless.

[@Tacom4ster]

on the Bluray Hayter mention Snake several times, there was even a question of what if Snake met Lupin?

[@Vix584]

+Adrian Dezendegui Really? That sounds like an interesting watch. And on the question of Snake meeting Lupin? That sounds amazing, but at the same time a shame seeing that it would probably never happen because of how uptight Konami is becoming now.

[@hemidas]

+VicMaxSim Well, that's what fanfics are for!

[@dbgvideos6133]

Yea i really enjoy a middle aged guy yelling snake in my ear

[@Sarato]

My god, that animation is beautiful!

[@cheezemonkeyeater]

Interesting note about that "convenient trap door." It's not just under Lupin's feet by chance. If you watch the scene, you'll notice how the count has his ninja's first push Lupin on top of it. It's still absurd that he has a trap door right there, but it's a nice little touch anyway.

[@RShonta]

Oh dear god, I OWN this movie and didn't notice that Lupin is voiced by David Hayter! And I love this movie! And Lupin in general! And you managed to sneak in Metal Gear and Princess Bride shout-outs! MAGNIFICENT!

[@Exmachinagamma]

I miss this I don't have this dvd anymore.

[@moonlilly467]

I found this film on Netflix recently and after this review, gave it a chance. Then forced all my friends to watch it. They still like me. Thanks Bennett!

[@TheSufferingDarkness]

Unfortunately, the dub is a different one than what we are listening to in the video

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

I say this in the best possible way, this plays more like a fun cartoon than other anime. Its like a perfect mix

[@Iceteague1]

On Blu Ray release, they do say it's Michael Gregory in the credits because it wasn't confirmed who played Goemon in Castle of Cagolistro when they did the DVD release.

[@nubreed13]

+CHRIS CONLEY just hurts to think about doesnt it.

[@kyubihanyou]

Yes, and unfortunately Richard Epcar still lists having done Goemon for this movie on his resume because that's what the DVD wound up saying. Perhaps worse was that there were 2 or so lines that did particularly sound more like Epcar than our favorite Laughing Bull, which may or may not have caused this error in the first place.

[@justthestormdick.sitdown.5239]

If it's any consolation, I have Kevin Seymour's original casting notes for this film (as well as the SAG bills/receipts for the dub) that lists Michael Gregory as having voiced the character. I received them from his estate via Kevin's nephew, Logan. I sent an email to Richard about it and he doesn't recall. It seems he just copied everything off his Imdb like 99% of other voice actors. Can't exactly blame him. lol

[@Tommylop1982]

Castle of Calliestro was the 2nd Miyazaki film I saw after Kiki and I rented it just because it had Miyazaki's name on it. I had no idea who these charecters were (and Lupin is a looooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg running series in Japan) That said I am also so use to Tony Oliver voicing Lupin that's just odd whenever I switch back to Caligostro and hear Snakes voice coming out of the character.And oh yeah F Konami big time. One of my favorite game devlopers growing up and just to watch them implode under a bad CEO just brings sadness to my heart. Oh and Castle of Caligiostro is missing one thing from the Princess Bride. No one says I am Indigo Montya you killed my fathar prepare to die.

[@jacoblonewolf]

I played this back in the mid 80's at the arcade. It played like Dragon's Lair. Pretty much one big quick time event. Made it as far as where Lupin & the bride are hanging off the cliff. Nowhere near as fun as Dragon's Lair or Space Ace.

[@cloudstrife4534]

The Discotek Media DVD lists Michael Gregory as Goemon, so at least the mistake was rectified at some point in the past.

[@PokemonHaloFan]

Oh man I love this movie. This is the movie that got me interested in anime beyond Pokemon and Digimon and was also my introduction to the work of Hiyao Miyazaki. And then I found out that David Hayter voiced Lupin in this movie. Now that was just the icing on the cake.

[@Darkgun231]

I always thought Lupin threw away all the Goat Bills because he wasn't just a thief, he (and his family) was a thief who took objects of real or even priceless worth. Stealing forgeries and fakes would be like cheating for him, since they weren't the originals.

[@_Snowflame]

On the diving suit bit. The Mythbusters did a scientific-enough test on whether you could wear a fitted tuxedo beneath your diving suit, go diving, and come back up looking dapper. Apparently, you can, so for the purposes of my suspension of disbelief, tucking a trench coat into a diving uniform is alright.

[@ElectricOutcast]

Unpopular Opinion time: I love David Hayter in general, but Tony Oliver is the best Lupin the Third. Same with Richard Epcar and Daisuke Jigen.

[@christianyoung1383]

Actually QUITE popular

[@louisduarte8763]

And if Michelle Ruff didn't voice-act Fujiko in this one, who did?

[@fangiresaga]

So we got a badass like Snake, the master thief Lupin, AND the bioboosted warrior that is the Guyver all rolled into one awesome package. NICE!!!

[@ZeroMilan]

funnily enough "Fuck it! It's Lupin!" is also something I said while watching the Detective Conan crossover

[@akhannar9368]

Something tells me that "Fuck it - It's Lupain" was frequently tossed around during production of this one :P

[@cptmachine]

I loved the film when I first got it on VHS in the UK. I have been confused when i got it again on DVD years later to have all the dub done by different actors.

[@planettyro]

+Neil Shaw Hey, if you're a Lupin fan you may want to check out the 2016 animated retrospective we are covering on the franchise this year on our channel! - this movie is great!

[@danielpowers1107]

Such a fantastic movie. I actually hadn't seen it up until a few years ago on Netflix. I'd watched some of the old Lupin The Third episode that use to be on TV so that's kinda what set me up to want to watch this movie. And I'm glad I did. It was such an enjoyable sit through that I always recommend it to anyone that asks for a good anime movie suggestion.

[@naterivers6107]

Holy shit those voices hit you like a truck if you're a fan of Lupin III part 2. Don't misunderstand, I still like the voices in Cagliostro, but when you've watched the original dub as much as I have it still is shocking.

[@akathesk]

I've only watched this once, but the David Hayter thing? Now I have new found appreciation for it

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

No matter how many times I see a fight in a clocktower, its always pretty fun to watch.

[@jehb8945]

I didn't know this existed until about 8 years ago when I caught it on encore and without knowing it was Miyazaki I was impressed. I'm not the biggest loop on the third fan but God dammit Miyazaki made the thief look damned good. I also know a bunch of Miyazaki Fanatics who have never heard about this film and it makes me smile.

[@Tommylop1982]

I went back and watch this movie again after Sages review (it's on Hulu if anyone wants to check it out) and I think the clock tower scene also influence the Castlevania games. The way the clock looks, that you fight a penultimate boss on top of the clock, and after an evil count is vanquish that the tower itselfs just breaks apart and falls into a lake. Very Castlevania like.

[@theivace9705]

This was sooooo nice guy Lupin. He's heavily censored. I suggest taking great note of the Lupin pilot and first 2 episodes of the 1971 series to know what the original character was like.

[@Tacom4ster]

Eh Lupin have been such a long franchise there's just different versions of the characters. Goemon was gonna kill Lupin in the Green Jacket pilot, Lupin ran a criminal empire he inherited from Lupin the second with his own lackeys in the early mangas, and Jigen just hanged out with Conan Edogawa who calls him "Pops"

[@theivace9705]

Adrian Dezendegui I'm talking about the first pilot with red jacket tan skin that later became the first green jacket series. It was closer to the manga with curd remorseless Lupin, trigger happy Jigen, and Fujiko being more of a pet name for Lupin's many mistresses.

[@Tacom4ster]

Oh I was mistaken Lupin was wearing a Red Jacket in that pilot I was talking about Anyway I consider the Blue Jacket series to be great

[@planettyro]

+4th Ace Hey, if you're a Lupin fan you may want to check out the 2016 animated retrospective we are covering on the franchise this year on our channel! - this movie is great!

[@ricardocantoral7672]

Agreed. Miyazaki's Lupin isn't really Lupin. Give me Mamo any day of the week.

[@bowenorcutt78]

Went to watch this on Netflix, and I think they used a different dub or something. I think some of the voices sound different, and I don't remember Clarisse saying anything about wanting to be a thief in that version. What sealed it for me that it's different is that the scene where the ninja guy realizes he's out of a job has completely different lines. He just says cagliostro's reign is over and then the samurai says something to the effect of "evil tends to destroy itself."

[@kllstalling]

That is the original streamline version from the 90s Manga Entertainment released it

[@autofox1744]

Couple of fun facts; there's an older English dub of this film which I actually own on VHS, which I think is even better. Aside from that, the hood popping up on Lupin's Fiat 500 is actually reference to the Abarth-tuned racing Fiats, where they had to do this to keep the engine cool.

[@RichardWatt]

Lupin's Fiat 500 reminds me of the old East German Trabant, or that car the CIA guy in Goldeneye had when he met Bond at the (allegedly) Pulkovo Airport (but that's a comment for another time), and used a sledgehammer on the fan when it wouldn't start...

[@autofox1744]

The car in Goldeneye is actually a ZAZ-965, a Soviet-made car heavily inspired by - though mechanically distinct from - the Fiat 500. It in fact looks quite a lot like a Fiat 600, an enlarged version of the 500. The Trabant is just a coincidence, though. It took its styling cues from a lot of small European cars at that time, and was a contemporary of the Fiat 500. It was the first production car with an all-plastic body, though!

[@krvys7226]

I think "FUCK IT, ITS LUPIN" should be on every DVD release of everything Lupin the third, and Monkey Punch should have a plaque that says "FUCK IT, ITS LUPIN" for each real country Lupin has visited, in the native tongue of each of those countrys. Cause that's how bloody fun this show is

[@RichardWatt]

Lupin's got a Fiat 500 that can be converted into an Abarth 500? SOLD!

[@AreSNezia]

"But the problem is this, that this name appears nowhere on the credits for episodes 1-4". Doesn't matter. Animaze credits on non-union productions such as this were notorious for not always being episodic. Just because Mike's stage name doesn't appear in the episodes Gyutner's in, doesn't mean he did not voice the character. It's obviously his voice, crummy credits or not.

[@TheWayoftheSith]

"Good natured perversion and a ninja attack"... I'm sold.

[@sdh2383]

Just got into this channel. Been going through the backlog of videos and ran across this one. This anime was one of my favorites. I owned Castle of Cagliostro on VHS way back in the day. The dub was different on VHS, especially the voice Lupin. I'm guessing they re-dubbed the cast because of degrading audio quality over decades. I miss the old voice of Lupin, he was played far more playfully and was actually funny... I know this is an old review and no one has commented in years, but does anyone know where to get the original dub?

[@tims.2717]

Yeah, it's on the blu ray with the other english dub. All you have to do before the movie starts is go to settings; english mono (1992) and then, that's it.

[@inspectorspinda]

Should've talked more about the Japanese cast too. Oh well, great review. Could you look at Mystery of Mamo next? PS. I also feel I should mention that in the manga, Goemon is written a lot better. He's sort of the wide-eyed innocent who pretends to be all stoic, because of his samurai roots, but still has a silly side to him that is bought out by lupin. He and lupin start out as enemies, but he eventually looks up to him as a teacher.

[@Morgil27]

My main familiarity with Lupin III came from the tv series that aired on Adult Swim years ago. So hearing those _very_ different voices in this movie felt very jarring to me.

[@MrYoda2k]

This movie got me into Lupin franchise and i think it was one of the best decision i've made

[@filipinowhiteboy]

[@JmanRising]

Thanks I finally found out what anime this was because of this video. I remember playing a arcade game based on this anime and it played just like Dragons Lair. It was hard as balls with beginners trap bullshit but the animation was cool.

[@jedh3721]

I love this movie! I am always confused when I hear people complain about it because it wasn't like other Lupin stories. it is different, yes, but not so different that it loses what makes Lupin so much fun to watch.

[@898792]

I'm watching the movie on Netflix, and it is not the same dub, instead of calling lupin... Lupin, they either call him boss or wolf.

[@orcatwar9810]

There's a reason why There's 2 maybe 3 dubs for this One from the late 90s ( that's the one you watched) the names are changed for copyright reasons This one is from the early 00s And Between those 2 there is a family friendly version

[@DwarfDaddy]

Yeah just checked it myself its the inferior 90’s dub and sadly it’s the most prevalent you’ll have to buy a second hand copy of the Manga dub.

[@ToddniTV]

This was the first Miyazaki film when I was four, then ten years later I saw a special edition DVD, bought it and still enjoyed it, despite the fact that it had a completely different English dub. SOOOO I got to miss out on David Hayter's voice acting outside MGS. Also the dubing in the DVD I bought had a lot of lines that were different to what I just saw in this review. it's very fascinating

[@Pooky1991]

Been a long time since I've seen this movie😄

[@animem54]

@BennettTheSage -The reason Lupin doesn't take the counterfeit bills is because he is a gentlemen thief and believes that using the fake bills would make obtaining things too easy, boring, and unfair. He does it all the time in the anime series.

[@1cioda]

I think you are forgetting that Lupin is honorable. And theres no Honor in stealing fake bills. Thats why he got rid of the ones he stole. His plan initially was probably to destroy the source of the bills so they couldnt be put in circulation ever again, and he found something more important in the princess.

[@rordrom3234]

This movie is good! Lupin III is awesome!

[@PhoenixHealing]

I don't know maybe it's my dorkiness but all I could think of during the clocktower fight was the Great Mouse Detective. Basil look out!

[@DAv2003]

It did say in the movie that it was the plates that Lupin was after, not the machines and it's what Fujiko goes for in the end. Mind you, I saw a different dub, so not sure if it was covered in that one. Also, Lupin's a thief who goes for valuable stuff. The bills are essentially worthless, but the plates for them would be worth a lot.

[@DAv2003]

+DAv2003 Oh, also forgot to say beforehand, but another really good review here Bennett. Nice to go into the Lupin series with this movie and proved to be an entertaining video. The destruction of physics are always a fun thing to see.

[@Goleon]

You saw the Streamline dub. He reviewed the more well known dub by Manga.

[@DAv2003]

+Goleon Yeah, that was it. Seems like there were quite a few differences between the dubs.

[@Goleon]

DAv2003 Oh yeah. The Genon dub of Lupin The Third Series 2 is a good example but it's still good in my book.

[@princeblackelf4265]

+Goleon The Geneon dub is by far my favorite dub. I know it plays a bit fast and loose with the translation but it's so damn funny

[@thezenitsufan1249]

Michael Gregory DID voice Goemon in the dub but he was uncredited

[@Thegreatarrowguard12]

Jeez if you're able to take apart this film I can't imagine the time you'd have taking apart the other films -.-

[@jsc315]

That ending had me cracking up.

[@FancyRPGCanada]

If and when you do My Neighbor Totoro you have to make mention of how there's a Fox dub and a Disney dub, and how the Fox dub is the better version because professional voice actors play the two little girls, whereas in the Disney dub children play the sisters and don't do a very good job. Also, for when you do Princess Mononoke show the difference between the Alliance Atlantis dub and the Disney dub, wherein the AA dub Billy Bob Thornton was the main villain and they actually recorded English singing for parts of the English dub, which honestly was better performed than the Japanese singing. The weirdest part about the Disney dub for Princess Mononoke was that they hired back some of the same actors, like Billy Crudup and Claire Danes, and had them redo their lines, and you can tell they did not give two fucks the second time around.

Wait, you mean all this time I've been pronouncing "Lupin" wrong? D: I have been pronouncing it "Lu-PIN" not "Lu-PAUN!"

I agree, that was a fun movie. I do love Lupin the 3rd in general, and while this isn't my favorite installment, it's a great film. I will contrast a bit, though. I actually quite like Goemon's quiet and oddly selfish manner. It's a nice contrast to Lupin and Jigen, and the fact he isn't terribly heroic is almost refreshing to me. He's a ronin, though and through, not a noble paladin-samurai. But yes, I hear your side and respect it. Just a taste contrast.
