Considering this week had back to back episodes, I am a little confused as to why they didn't push it off to next week so that there would be a normal two part episode, instead of there only being a part one episode this week with the part two next week. Well, whatever, time to talk about another main storyline episode.

So we find out that Tomoe might actually be somebody's mother. The only question that remain is if it's referring to Lupin, Mattea, or someone else. Mattea is growing more suspicious each episode, though she is so innocent looking, that it's hard to accuse her of anything nefarious.

There is obviously something major going on behind the scenes, and Zenigata walked straight into it and is now the main suspect of a murder. There is definitely something fishy going on, though whether it's an independent plot or tied to Tomoe somehow remains to be seen. Though I find it hard to believe that it isn't tied with Tomoe.

Groan, waiting a week for the second part of this two part episode is going to be torture.

About the women, at first I thought the same, but thinking of the amount of coincidences that would take is quite hard to believe. But it's Lupin, so you never know. About Moriarty, you think that he's Tomoe's child? Or that he's the one behind everything in this episode?

Agreed that Mattea appears more suspicious now, especially considering that she just so happened to be in the same country on vacation.

I would also like to think that Moriarty is somehow involved, and I was hoping that "The Woman" or Tomoe was going to tie into a Moriarty storyline (either Tomoe as Moriarty or she also trained him). Since we met a young Moriarty at the end of Episode 12, it leads me to believe he will somehow be involved in a future episode, but I'm not sure where they're going with it.

The cliffhanger and break between the two parter is definitely agonizing, but it was a smart move. They want fans to eagerly return for the next part in the story. They could have done the same thing with Episodes 11-12, but I'm glad they didn't. It left more room for story progression without a recap, in that instance.
"The guys I know who worried about having what it takes all found themselves lying in a coffin. In our line of business, there are only two possible paths to take. Get it done, or don’t." (Daisuke Jigen, from Lupin III Part 6, Episode 15)

I will wait for the cliffhanger to be resolved before I give a real comment on this episode.
This show is much better when it doesn't waste it's time on Sherlock Holmes. Thank goodness there was more to the story than than Sherlock.

That whole case is really mysterious, especially after what happened at the end, and lol Zenigata jailed for that, seriously xD
