[.ca] Lupin the 3rd: Voyage to Danger



Voyage to Danger is a must watch for Lupin Fans:
When I got Voyage to Danger I was Disapointed at first, then i watched the whole thing and the only thing i didn't like was the drawing style that is different from the usual way. Then i learned it was from the 90's so I thought that was pretty cool. After about 20 years since it's release they still had ideas for plot-lines. The Movie stays active but doesn't have lots of Goemon. You need to see it nevertheless.


The best I have seen:
I have seen a few other Lupin movies, The Mystery of Mamo, Dragon of Doom, and Castle of Cagliostro, but Voyage To Danger is my favorite! This movie made me want to see every Lupin movie ever made! If you are used to the show on Cartoon Network, this movie might seem a little strange at first because the voices are different. Most of the characters look pretty much the same, with the big exception of Fujiko, which also takes some getting used to. But after the first 2 minutes you can tell this is going to be a great movie, and it doesn't let you down. This movie had everything that The Mystery of Mamo didn't. If you are trying to make the choice on what Lupin movie to buy, buy this one!


Pretty Damn Good:
This LupinIII movie has entirely different voice actors, animation style, and a tiny change to the characters personality (Jigen calls Lupin "Boss", Fujiko isn't as "un-loyal" as she normally is, etc.) But moving on... this is a very good LupinIII movie, its not as sexual as "Mystery Of Mamo", but not as soft as "Castle Of Caughliastro" (I hope I spelled that right). Over all the animation was good. The only two things that bugged me were that Jigen called Lupin "Boss", and that Fujiko looked like Kuwabara's sister in YuYu Hakusho. Amen


If you've gotta watch it in English, watch this translation.:
Funimation's English versions of the Lupin movies are a step up from the usual hideous translations made available by really cheap translation companies (Funimation, if you're listening -- keep producing quality and you will keep getting more fans!). You can tell that the director of the English version (Sonny Strait, also the voice of King Krillin in DBZ), really cared about how this dub came out and put a great deal of effort into producing something of quality in spite of having only the most limited of resources. (Dubs tend not to have big budgets.) Here's hoping that Mr. Strait gets to do more movies of this quality in the future! Maybe, just maybe, the standards of dub translations will be raised in the process!
