Great for a couple things, mediocre for others
|
Let me get down to the point. Lupin is a mediocre cartoon. There's nothing about the plot, characters, or the animation quality that makes this series a stand out from any other cartoon.
However, this series is valuable for two reasons:
1) Practicing Japanese. For those of us who are trying to become fluent in Japanese, this series is an excellent way to get exposure to Japanese on a daily basis. The Japanese spoken in Lupin is pretty fast, probably faster than the average Japanese person speaks, but it's still a good way to pick up some idiomatic patterns and vocab.
2) The music. Yuji Ohno's musical score is absolutely amazing. All of the music in Lupin has a real jazzy feel to it, with a hint of bossa and other styles thrown in when appropriate. I find the music always fits the scene, which is difficult to pull off. So I find lots of times I'll just want to watch Lupin so I can hear the music.
However, if you're not trying to learn Japanese, and you don't like jazz, then you'll probably want to skip Lupin. Your viewing time could be better spent with other animated shows you'd like more. |
