Whenever I want to see a great comedic action anime, I always reach for Lupin the 3rd first. This disc brings the show to 32 episodes out of 155 total so there's still a ways to go. Therefore the show is still pretty fresh and exciting with one episode on this disc (Lupin Dies Twice) that actually had me guessing as to how the world's greatest thief could steal himself away from an assassin's bullet.

I really enjoy Lupin and while many will argue that the movies are a bit more solid and enjoyable, the show is undoubtably a classic and is something every anime fan should watch. That is, if they can put down their CGI flashy shows and appreciate this admittedly dated classic.
