It's not quality subbed yet, and posting links to raws is prohibited.

Not sure why I didn't post here like when I first registered, as I'd seen the special by then, and I guess since most here have seen it, [s]no spoiler tags needed. [/s]

Spoiler:

That aside, I thought it was okay.  Seems that most of the Lupin III stuff was pulled from Shin Lupin III, and I'm going to assume that out of all of the television versions, that one was the most popular, which is probably why they used it.  Even though I'm not a big fan of Shin Lupin III, as I prefer the one before that (early 70s one where Lupin wears the green jacket), it was still cool.

For Fujiko, you could really hear how much her seiyuu had aged over the years.  Getting right down to it, I think her seiyuu and Jigen's seiyuu are the ones that have never been changed over the years (not counting that one movie when all of them were). 

Now getting down to what I thought about the special.  It was fun to watch, but, it did seem like it was more so Lupin III and Conan as opposed to Lupin III vs Conan.   At the end of it, I was bothered by the fact that Ran didn't get to do too much.  I was actually expecting her to use her karate at that final scene with all the deducting.

One thing that would've made the special even better, is if Kaito Kid would've been thrown into the mix.  Imagine it...Conan having to put up with Lupin and Kaito. lol

There is something else I can't help but be curious of...how in the world did they figure out Conan's identity.

(Edit by Jd-: Well, better safe than sorry, I guess. )

I just watched it and Yes, I'm going to be that guy that's several months late to the party. .

I can only sum up this Special as "WOW". I will admit that I had little hopes for this special due to it being a "VS" thing as these are usually more fan service than anything else but this one was pure gold. It had everything from a good mystery to just stupid scenes. . The Lupin cast was also used in a great way which made the story feel natural than just a "shove them all in there" thing. It also showed me that it was "The Lupin the 3rd" dub that was bad not the anime itself(saw three episodes of it on AS at 1:00 am and I couldn't make sense of it), so I might check the anime out again.

And hindsight 20/20, they should of never made the Jolly Roger movie 11, movie 11 should of been Full Score of Fear and this should of been movie 12.
