| Just as the forum title says above, do I need to watch the prequels in order to understand this? I was planning to watch Lupin III (1971) in the first place since there's only 23 episodes, but I saw that Lupin III Part 2 and Lupin III Part 3 both have 50+ episodes and tbh I don't really have the attention span for that. |

| No you don't need to, all of the parts (except part 4 and 5 (and maybe part 6)) are disconnected from each other, tho they are some throwbacks from time to time, previous knowledge from past parts are not necessary. That's the nice thing I like about Lupin really, you can start from pretty much anywhere you'd want, I for once started from part 4 (this part) and then 2, 1, 5 and currently watching 3. |

| Yes. You have to view every prior entry of the series, including shows, movies, OVAs, manga, and more before anything will make sense in this show. |
 |
| Everything before part 4 is good for monkey brain mode "I just wanna watch something decent", no commitment viewing. Everything after that becomes story driven and is more connected. As a Chad I'm watching everything because it's all great. |
| I mean, you don’t have to, but trust me, if you find Lupin at least half good, you’ll want to consume all of it. |
