Ideas/Overview
I suppose the Japanese writers of Lupin the third: Half II 20 wished to proceed the parody prepare as they did parody scenes of the traditional film, The Nice Dictator. Granted, they did issues in an nearly Warner Brothers method with the midget Hutler. He acted like Yosemite Sam at occasions, solely with a Hitler mustache.
Parody apart, Zenigata has nearly nothing to do within the episode as Hess assumes many of the inspectors function. Jigen and Goemon are barely within the episode, solely exhibiting up on the finish for the compelled, deus ex machina ending.
The one factor of word is the romantic overtures between Fujiko and Lupin. This episode highlights that they actually do care rather a lot for one another. Aside from the same old gag of Lupin attempting to make a sexual transfer on Fujiko on the finish of the episode, issues between the 2 are performed straight and real. To be trustworthy, the one factor that might have made their time collectively higher would have been a kiss earlier than the rope from Jigen and Goemon dropped.
Last Ideas and Conclusion
Ultimately, Lupin the third: Half II 20 is an element parody, half Looney Tunes, and half “till demise do us half” romantic themes. That final factor is what makes the episode value watching.
