I love the fact that voice actors related to Lupin Series were cast as Arsène Lupin and Lupin II.
Yoshito Yasuhara as Arsène Lupin
- He admired Yasuo Yamada who acted as Lupin III from the first TV series when he was in the same theatre company. Actually, he was almost decided as a successor after Yamada-san passed away in 1995. He also performed as Toshio in “Lupin III VS Cat’s Eye” for the first time in a while. (For me, he is Captain Hastings in ITV’s Poirot of the Japanese dub version.)
Toshio Furukawa as Lupin II
- He performed as Lupin III in “Fuma Conspiracy” in 1987 but he was heavily criticised by audiences since the casting was changed in the film from the original TV series. Nowadays, it has been once again recognized and he commented when he got the role of Lupin II in Lupin Zero: ‘I’m proud of myself for taking part of such a big famous series like Lupin III TWICE!’ (He is well known as Piccolo in Dragon Ball and Ataru in Urusei Yatsura etc…)
