The cops give him an eye fixed masks to assist him sleep. In the meantime, Lupin and Jigen spot him within the automotive and covertly cuff Zenigata to the automotive. Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon meet in a resort room the place Lupin explains they’re after a pair of rival sisters named Latika and Anita. His purpose is to get them to reconcile.
In the meantime, the sisters have interaction in aerial fight, taking pictures one another down. Then they shoot pistols at one another till empty. They then have interaction in knife fight till Goemon places a cease to it. They flee after Lupin reveals himself. Nonetheless, Lupin finds Latika at a good, telling her that Anita has employed somebody named Shirage to assist her. As such, Lakita agrees to rent Lupin to assist her.
Lakita involves the situation requested by Lupin that night time. On the similar time, Shirage has Anita come to a location that night time. Each males snap photographs of the ladies again, besides Shirage is Lupin, due to trickery. Lupin speeds off as Fujiko arrives to assist together with a person named Georg, who’d initially put Lupin on this treasure hunt.
Lupin, Goemon, and Jigen arrive at a tiny island to seek out lady’s father’s hidden treasure. Jigen and Goemon rapidly notice they’ve been had. Lupin refuses to imagine this and retains digging.

Ideas/Assessment
Ugh. Lupin the third: Half II 31 is one other tedious, pointless, boring episode showcasing a silly Zenigata and a silly Lupin. The silly Zenigata will get shoved in our face proper from the beginning. Think about being so dumb, you don’t know why daylight lasts over 18.5 hours in Stockholm. Then think about being so dumb, you’ve by no means heard of an eye fixed masks. After that, think about being so dumb, you’d threaten fellow cops with arrest in the event that they don’t drive you someplace, but all you do is nap of their automotive whereas they go no the place.
As to Lupin, his stupidity is in a extra normal route. He will get conned by Georg with false info. In the meantime, in my head canon, Fujiko banged Georg to betray Lupin.
As to the remainder of the episode, it made little logical sense. A person finds an enormous treasure, hides it, makes use of a variation of Tolkien’s elf runes know-how to “tattoo” the maps onto the younger sisters backs, together with making it in order that there’s truly a pretend map and an actual map that may solely be learn on sure days. So why precisely are the sisters engaged on this silly, “lethal” combat, solely to change into allies when Fujiko will get concerned?
Lastly, I realized that this episode is loosely tailored from the unique chapter 30 of the Lupin III manga (chapter 32 within the tankoubon). Principally, the story simply has Lupin making an attempt to intercourse the 2 girls (Linda as an alternative of Anita). The treasure facet doesn’t come into play till he will get the picture as they undergo him bare. However that’s the place the manga story ends. There’s no Goemon, Fujiko, or Zenigata.
Ultimate Ideas and Conclusion
In the long run, Lupin the third: Half II 31 is one other a kind of “meh” episodes.
