| Totally excited for this....More Lupin is always a good thing :D |
 |
| Awesome news! I always felt Goemon was a bit underrepresented in the films/specials compared to the rest of the gang (except for The Fuma Conspiracy), so I'm happy he's getting a movie where he's the focus again. And the fact that Takeshi Koike and company are working on the series again is the delicious icing on the cake. |

| More Lupin is always appreciated, especially if the staff of the decent Jigen's Gravestone returns. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| god bless, i love lupin iii !!!! |
| Great news ! Can't wait for this sequel of the serie about Mine Fujiko which was already gorgeous, now it's Goemon's turn and i'm sure it will be good too. I really enjoyed Lupin III 2015, everything about it was perfect, be it the cast, the visual or the ost. So count me in for sure for this new film ^^ |
| Oh shit this is looking super neat! Loved the Lupin installments of the last few years and this seems like it might continue that trend. |
 |
| Jigen movie first now Goemon movie, so i think Fujiko movie will be up next too |
| Seriously can't wait for this. |
| Is this the a hint for the adventure of the Lupin gang on the serious side? Guess that is something to look forward to. |
 |
| Can't wait. I never was a huge fan of Goemon, but maybe this will make me love him. |
| More Lupin sounds awesome, can't wait to see this. |
 |
| YESSS I AM SO HAPPPYYYYYYYYY |
