Animation looks fantastic. Love the new take on the theme. Jigen's VA has changed from Kiyoshi Kobayashi to Akio Otsuka. Bummed to not be able to hear Kobayashi's Jigen anymore, but it was only a matter of time and makes sense given Goodbye Partner. Otsuka is a good casting however, and sounds great in the role in this PV. What are your guys thoughts?

Ostuka sounds great. Glad someone can feel the comfort to express all they imagine into Jigen, as I imagine it probably got harder for Kobayashi to do so as he went along. The animation looks tight. Series looks very intense and suspenseful. Should be really interesting. I’m liking the aesthetic a lot more than 5. Everything feels very warm and coarse, adds strongly to the mood. The colour changes are minimal but cool. I like Lupin having a purple shirt with his green jacket. Jigen sorta has a combo of his part 1 and 2 designs, but I guess it’s more first contact like, brown tie is cool regardless. Fujiko’s got a nice more cherry fade to her hair, which looks really cool.

Looks like Lupin's Fiat 500 is making a comeback, it might not be there for the entirety of the series but it's good to see it again. It seems we're getting a few callbacks to Part I with the green jacket as well to celebrate the 50th anniversary, it'd be amazing to see Lupin drive his old Mercedes-Benz SSK one more time.

Jigen sharing a voice with Black Jack is something I didn't expect but it fits perfectly! It'll take time getting used to, though.

I see no issue with this. Otsuka fits so perfectly well!!
Although I’ll take time to get used to.
