Mar. 4th, 2024 02:47 pmso i finished Lupin III: The Woman Named Fujiko Mine
overall: great for a classic caper anime, worthwhile to watch and entertaining in a way that's not too demanding. fantastic art direction. subversive queer/feminist themes for its time that certian slices of tumblr would go nuts over. not quite as "classic/brain screwy' as Utena but vaguely in that direction. i was legit on the edge of my seat for the first half of the finale; there were some neat twists and sets being pulled out.
but the second half of the finale was kinda .... (imo) badly fumbled in a few ways. naturally this had me asking myself how i would have done it.
( all of this won't make sense unless if you've seen the show. massive spoilers. kind of bitchy fyi, but no hard feelings lol. )
