Fanservice isn't a YMMV trope. Moving onto main.


* {{Fanservice}}: Strangely enough, not Fujiko this time around, but rather Goemon while he and Jigen are obtaining the boats to help spring Princess Emera from the palace. After one of the guards sees that his phone has become the unfortunate target of Zantetsuken's edge, we get a full-body shot of Goemon wearing nothing but his fundoshi and showing off his well-toned muscles.

** In the dub, Jigen refers to the process of Lupin's hacking as "someone could use a new web designer," to which Lupin responds with "I'm not talkin' about jpegs, Jigen," ironically making this line an UnintentionalPeriodPeice given the 9-year gap between the original Japanese release and Funimation's DVD release. In the original Japanese, Jigen instead says "You got into the enemy's computer pretty easy", with Lupin not saying anything until he goes over the details about the island.

* GeniusBonus: Crossed with FreezeFrameBonus, if the viewer knows their periodic table, when Lupin is analyzing the Nanomachines, they'll know the nanomachines are made out of [[spoiler: mostly gold]] before the movie actually reveals it.

* HarsherInHindsight: This film would mark the first instance of a villain performing an onscreen [[OffWithHisHead decapitation]] in the series, with a few images that show just what happened when Headhunter lives up to his name near the climax. Fastforward 21 years after this film with the release of Anime/GoemonIshikawasSprayOfBlood, and we see another graphic decapitation, with no imagery showing what happened, just the graphic image of Hawk's head sliding off of his body after being slashed by Zantetsuken.

** In the dub, the Zufu police arrive to take Zenigata to prison, telling him that one of them will put in a good word to the other inmates once he's in the slammer, to which Pops responds with "Come on, cut me some slack. I'm a cop, same as you." In the Japanese version, this is more of a manner of ArsonMurderAndJaywalking because the police disagree with Pops' entering the country, citing it as illegal. Here, Zenigata responds to them with "Only my superiors may drop my name suffix," with the police stating that everyone will drop the title attributed to Zenigata.
** In the dub, Spanky is heard singing a drunken version of La Cucaracha, while he sings something elese in the original Japanese.

Foe Yay has been split into a number of tropes, but thanks for reminding me of the scene! See the main page for the replacement.


* FoeYay: When Zenigata is driving a captured Lupin [[spoiler:(or rather, the local bartender Lupin disguised as himself)]] to their helicopter pickup, the good inspector is speaking boastfully of the peaceful life he will lead after turning Lupin in and retiring to Japan. He intends to write an autobiography, titled along the lines of ''Inspector Kouichi Zenigata:'' '''''Love''''' ''and War in his Pursuit of Lupin III''. According to him, he initially wanted to just put "war" in there, but thought that might turn off potential female audiences and added "love" as well. One can't help but think that if he had actually written the thing more than one YaoiFangirl would mistakenly purchase it in the belief that it has some sort of romantic plotline.
