  • Summary

  • Is This Anime? is a podcast hosted by friends & comedians Jack Metcalfe & Malcolm McLeod. Jack is an anime "expert" and has loved the genre all of his life. Malcolm has never watched anime in his life and has no idea what it is. Each week, Jack introduces Malcolm (and sometimes a guest!) to a new anime and together they go on a journey to decide its worthiness in the great pantheon of anime... something Malcolm may never ever grasp.

"Daughter of Lupin"

This live-action, 12-episode TV series does the "fun, robbing the bad guys heists" format absolutely great! Its over the top stylish news (when doing the heists) replaces the cartoon is news of Lupin III. And don't forget her childhood friends thief who thinks he's in a musical.

The story arc involves Haha in love with a police detective from a family of police officers out to catch the notorious L Family - her father, mother, and grandmother - who could be related to Arson Lupin , if you want to see it in the final episode.

Note, halfway through, the story arc takes an unexpected turn, just like in Lipid III.
