On February 9th, 2020, we began our coverage of Lupin III: Part I. Today, we finally close the book on our journey with Lupin's first TV outing. It's time to end on an explosive high note. It's time to talk about Episode 23: "The Big Golden Showdown!" It's all coming to a head. The entirety of Tokyo is scrambling to claim ownership of a recently-discovered stash of gold, Zenigata is putting his badge on the line to capture Lupin and the gang once and for all, and Lupin might just put his life on the line to pull the most brazen heist yet. Join Drew, Emma, Chris, Natalie, and Guillaume as they discuss the episode, look back at Part I as a whole, and collectively rank all twenty-three episodes of the series. It's been a long road covering this series. We're grateful for every listener who's been along for the ride either from the start or along the way. Here's to more great adventures ahead!
