Helloooo just wanted to say I got into Lupin iii because of you a few months ago and have enjoyed it ever since, the guy is so funny oh my lord also really love the way they animated the characters movements it just scratches an itch in the brain

aaaaah YAY!!! I'm so glad to hear that!! Lupin the Third is SO GOOD (and also so bad depending on which version you watch skdjfhshd) and I'm always happy when people discover this weird little franchise! I'm so happy you're enjoying it!

Also yeah man, the animation is that special early 80s late 70s jank which is so good. Where you can tell the animators were very good at their job, they just had 0 budget and 5 minutes to make each episode!

It's a feature, not a bug...

It wasn't a hugely eventful convention or anything but I should probably still write up my Matsuricon 2024 report.

Thursday: Had a friend stay over at my place for the weekend. Pregamed the con by watching a few more episodes of Legend of the Galactic Heroes.

Friday: Cosplayed Soujyurou from Mahoyo, made the jacket and safety pinned my Robin plush to my shoulder. Showed up, grabbed my badge, ran our Lupin III panel for the first time in...four and a half years? Went out into the hallway to chat with people who attended the panel. Then suddenly it was four hours later and we went home.

Saturday: Went home early on Friday to be awake and in a panel room at 8 AM on Saturday to talk about robots for two hours. Midway through the 90s we realized that, despite getting the longest possible timeslot, we were still almost out of time, and had to blast through the last three decades. Haven't done that panel in a while either (haven't done too many panels in general since the pandemic).

Got lunch and looked around the dealer's hall for a bit. I got a rubber charm of Bocchi (of Rock) from a gachapon machine. Not a whole lot else I was interested in, but that's objectively a good thing. Then it was off to the YGO tournament!

I'd revamped my deck (again) because I had made a few key realizations. First, I don't know my opponents' decks well enough to effectively use hand traps to shut down a combo. Second, many modern decks are relatively unprepared to handle a board-clearing spell. Monster effects are simple to negate and counter with a full board. But spells, maybe not. And third, and this one is the most critical part: having a balanced deck of 50/50 monsters/spells and traps no longer matters. I was taking out a bunch of monsters that would never, ever actually be played to the field, their only point in my deck was to be discarded as a counter; to switch in three copies of Raigeki, three Dark Holes, and two Lightning Storms.

It wasn't a huge tourney, there were eleven other players, for what would end up being three rounds of single elimination. My first game, I played a guy who had some kinda deck full of Dinosaurs and counter trap cards. It was an interesting playstyle I hadn't seen before, but I won that 2-0. Second game, Kashtira. Won the first duel, lost the second, won the third. Third and final game, which I sure didn't expect to get to the finals, was vs Ancient Gears, another deck that prefers to go second. Lost the first game, won the second, and I might have been able to win the third if I hadn't let myself get psyched out. But I'm still pretty pleased with my performance, considering I've lost just about every other match I've played with my new deck 0-2.

The second place prize was a bunch of tournament packs, and first place was as well, plus a free badge for next year. The first place winner let me have his pack pulls, which was nice, I'm still building back up a selection of trades to have available. I didn't really need a free badge for next year anyway since I'm planning on paneling again, and my opponent getting a free badge means we can rematch next year! So honestly, I'm kinda glad I got second.

Also while everyone waited for the tourney to start, everyone was ribbing on one guy for his very expensive deck he was keeping in the world's most basic $3 deckbox, so that was entertaining. Reminded me of the fellas I used to play YGO with at the local library, where there was always some friendly banter back and forth.

After that I hung out with a few more friends, played some Melty Blood, and went home.

Sunday: The traditional day at a con where I play mahjong with the homies until we pack up and go home. I got in one whole game before we took all the tables back to our organizer's car (that took half an hour to find). That wrapped up the event and then I got home and conked out early Sunday evening and most of Monday too. I didn't even do a whole lot of running around or anything, I was just tired.

Also my last few conventions have been so overwhelmingly positive on the whole that I forgot that these events are also frequented by people who are weird in not-fun ways. That last mahjong game, had a fella start spouting off about he hates being referred to as cis, despite being a cis hetero male. I hit him with the "I hate the cis because they are led by the treacherous Count Dooku" and that worked surprisingly well at changing the subject, but it was still, terribly awkward there for a second, especially when another of our club's regulars at the same table is one of the most Gender individuals I know.

Anyway that's probably my last anime con for the year, but there's a new event coming to the area in April I think I'll hit up, excited to see what that's like.

Lupin part 6 / episode 0 spoilers!!! After staring at these screenshots for several hours I feel like could write an essay on Lupin’s facial expressions but, in summary: Lupin loves Jigen and jiglup is real 🥲

The last expression is of course an artistic liberty as you don’t actually see Lupin’s face when he says “And maybe that’s why I’ve been able to stay true to myself.” I really struggled to do my imagination justice in this case. I hope it comes across as wistful/fond/ grateful.

Come yell at me about Lupin on Twitter:

A Year of Lupin

Part 2

Voyage to Danger

This was pretty fine. Animation was neat; story was good. It was another typical Lupin adventure. The gang got a hold a submarine to stop a weapon smuggling location. Wild, yes, but I adore this TV special for showing the characters care for each other. Also, I enjoy the music score and glad to hear the original sub cast are back.

Farewell to Nostradamus

Wow! This one was amazing! Animation, music, voice cast, story: above and beyond! I was entertained throughout the whole movie. I won't bother explaining the story because it's insane but still great. I also found Kanichi's performance as Lupin to be good. He still carried the spirit of Lupin that Yasuo did as Lupin. Farewell to Nostradamus is one of the greats from Lupin.

Island of Assassins

This was pretty violent and brutal for a Lupin project. Let's just say Lupin and the gang are on an island full of murderous assassins. The style in animation, and story is mature with twists & turns. I liked the approach this project did and remained speechless.

Tokyo Crisis

Oh my gosh, this was so fun. In a course of some days, Lupin and the gang need to get two ancient photos to find treasure. Meanwhile, Zenigata tries to solve it along with Mariya, a woman with special powers. Animation and story were good, but the highlight was the sub cast of this project. Overall, excellent watch.

Alcatraz Connection

You'd be surpised to learn about the connection of Alcatraz to the Kennedy brothers. The animation was the first of Lupin going digital which was off putting at first, but I got used to it. Overall, it was decent with solid music and voice acting.

Episode 0: The First Contact

I love this special. The origin story of how the Lupin gang met. Some parts of the animation were good, and music was fantastic.

Return of Pycal

This one is shorter than the others which thank goodness because it sucked. I know CG was new, but still it was not good. Also, for the return of an old character from Lupin was weak. I can only say the cool part was the montage of Monkey Punch's illustrations from the Lupin manga. Other than that, not good.

Part 1 / Part 3 / Part 4

I already knew it was actually Lupin telling the 'story' of how everyone first met in First Contact, not Jigen, but I think the first hint is likely how Lupin acted so calm around Fujiko in their first meeting.

You know that is just a load of bullshit coming from him, considering how Part 2 Lupin acts around Fujiko even after years of knowing each other. He would be a mess in their actual first meeting.
