To mark the upcoming UK release of The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, we’re taking a closer look at anime’s first lady of crime, and how she’s evolved over the course of the Lupin franchise. Joined for this one by our special guest, Sy, we’re starting with a review of the new Fujiko series, after which the podcast will attempt to discuss Fujiko’s character in the Lupin manga, the tv series and those films that give her a significant role.
Despite any confusing statements Alan may have made early on, this episode is entirely spoiler free. Major thanks also to ConanThe3rd for his work on the edit for this one.
