- Kyoto Video finally ventures into the world of 70s anime with a historical title that came out at the tail end of the decade, The Castle of Cagliostro. While it is remembered more as Hayao Miyazaki's directorial debut, the film itself actually had an influence on animation way before anime like Akira got popular. Was this film with a slightly controversial take on the beloved Lupin III a forerunner to the animation renaissance of the 80s and 90s?

Castle of Cagliostro was my introduction to Lupin the Third without knowing Miyazaki was the Director, and I’m glad it was my intro to this amazing series. Because after seeing the movie, I started watching and reading the Lupin series, and loved every minute and page of it!!
Same!!
Yeah i watch that on Netflix a Lupin the 3rd saving a Princess from a evil leader of Count Cagliostro of Castle of Cagliostro.
Same here
Same here.
Same here!!👍 👍
I can't tell you how much I enjoy Castle of Cagliostro as a Lupin fan, given how most hardcore fans don't like this film for how much they changed the established characters, but it's fine with me.
I'm not sure if this is true, but I think most Lupin fans enjoy the movie, just not as a Lupin movie.
Bruh! I love Lupin and I love how Lupin is here
Y’know, I never even noticed jigen Hurriedly fix the back left wheel. I was too intrigued with the engine kicking into gear.
I really loved the ending of this movie, when the princess tells lupin that she wants to go with him and he answer her that he is a bandit always running away and she is a princess and doesn’t deserve that.
I'm not a person who knows much about lupin the third. I heard the name before, but one day I watched this movie. For some reason I got a feeling this was a send off for an era of Lupin. Lupin is a character that's changes over time and this lupin's time was up, so he felt more sincere and was trying to make his last tale that of a heroes end. Not for money, but instead glory.
I saw this at a Dallas comic convention back around 1991 in the room set aside for anime. People would bring their VCR's to tape everyone's bootleg anime. We of course had Akira, Twilight of the Cockroaches, LillyCat, and... "Warriors of the Wind", but seeing Lupin's great characters with the almost Looney Tunes style, over the top action was a revelation.
There was even a fan subtitled version that made the rounds in the 80s - granted - it was white subtitles with no black edging "shadow" - so the words sometimes got lost in the lighter tones sometimes. (And it didn't help that NTH generation copies were even MORE difficult to see and make sense of!) But it was a great first attempt! And it might have been THE first fan subtitle using VCR tech of the time.
The story telling in this essay is just brilliant. It gave me an entirely new appreciation for the film.
This was a wonderful video, I knew Castle of Cagliostro was influential but I didn't know it was that influential.
I couldn't tell you how hyped I was for this video! Castle of Cagliostro is my favorite movie :D
Anyone who was into the arcade scene of the early 80's was introduced to Lupin as "Cliff" in the laserdisc video game "Cliff Hanger". There are plenty of videos on UA-cam showing game play and the full game run was about 12 minutes.
The movie wasn't THAT unknown or unseen by 1987. The 1983 Laser disc game "Cliff Hanger" is built out of footage from Caliostro (and a few bits of Mamo). The game was brutally hard, so very few had seen the clock tower bits. But the opening chase would have been recognized by anyone who'd seen the game (and it wasn't all that rare).
I only ever saw a Cliffhangeer arcade game once.. in an airport, in 84.. when I was 6.. but it stuck with me.
I watched this when it had the old English dub with David Hayter as Lupin. Still the quintessential version for me.
The last episode of Teen Titans pays the homage to Castle of Cagliostro when Cyborg's car gets stolen and they have a chase scene with wall climbing. Magnificent!!
I avoided watching this film for a long time, despite hearing good things. All I'll say is I'm glad I finally got up and watched it. It's one of Miyazaki's finest works.
My first encounter with 'Castle Of Cogliostro', AND 'Lupin The Third' was from an episode of 'Starcade' where they featured an arcade game called 'Cliff Hanger'. Which basically used 'Castle Of Cogliostro' as the basis for a laserdisc game to cash in on 'Dragon's Lair's success.
I love reliving the parade of Michael Eisner's bad decisions on the Defunctland channel lol. My first exposure to Lupin and Cagliostro was the Cliff Hanger arcade game; 10 year old me would ride my shitty BMX bike for miles to the only arcade that had it (Malibu Castle Park in Redondo Beach CA). Something about it lit my imagination on fire, but I would not Transform into an anime otaku until Robotech debuted several years later in the 80's lol. Memories!
Lupin III season 5 set in France is a masterpiece and it is a tragic conundrum that more people did not watch it. The new character Ami is awesome, and the gang actually return to Cagliostro Castle near the end to hide out. Also, Lupin is forced to evaluate his relationship with Fujiko lol.
I love the "Lupin the Third: Castle of Cagliostro". I really really love it!
Love how you chart influences and such while sticking to a to the point review. Spectacular form
Do you think you’ll ever do a video on “Lupin The III : Mystery of Mamo?”. It was the first animated Lupin film and I feel as it has an important place in Anime history
Of course. All Lupin movies are up for grabs if they came out more than 15 years ago.
This reminded me of my childhood ,it was great,now that I think about it. Such movies,I could watch them,given my understanding was much simpler then but now looking back at it,watching the movies again,hold great meanings and also this beautiful movie only gets more beautiful now.
Hey, Puss in Boots is the Toei mascot!
Steven Spielberg is a huge fan of the movie, you know there's a Cliff Hanger arcade machine in the Goonies?
It’s hard to see, but it’s in there.
This video was amazingly well done! It was super professional and informative. I'm really surprised it doesn't have more views yet. Keep it up man, you're making amazing stuff!
fantastic video!! i love any and all Lupin III discussion. thank you for also focusing so much on Yasuo Otsuka and the importance of the Toei Doga features.
Great Mouse Detective was one of my favourites in my childhood.
Dude, i love your channel and Kyoto Video. Keep spreading the good word!
Also if you've never The King and the Mockingbird (Le Roi et l'Oiseau), the finished version of the Bergère and Ramoneur movie, you're missing something. It's a classic of french animation.
So I knew about Lupin before Castle of Cagliostro, I watched character analysis videos of the titular character and saw a few specials of him. It wasn't until I had to do an essay in my local JC on people who influenced Media (radio, movies, etc) and decided to do one on the famous old man himself did I actually learn how involved he was when it came to Lupin. After I turned in my essay I found out that Castle of Cagliostro was on Netflix decided to take a watch and now I'm a legit fan of the series. Might be my favorite Miyazaki movie to be honest.
📣 in 1983, When I was in 7th grade, riding on the heels of Dragon's Lair and Space Ace
there was a game called
Cliff Hanger which used footage from Cagliostro and briefly Mamo.
Making green jacket the first version I saw
I'd kill for a Mystery of Mamo review. That movie doesn't get enough recognition, my personal favorite Lupin movie.
It's Jigen, not Jigan. Unfortunately, there is a difference. Loved the video otherwise. Keep up the great work!
Well done homie, there’s never enough Lupin
Seriously: a small reason I never watched Lupin before was the name. I thought ”hmm Lupin 3 looks good but guess I gotta watch 1 and 2 first”
same
Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time...
Cagliostro was a masterpiece, and so is this retrospective- thanks so much for making this video!!
thank god I gave this a try on netflix. Anime are not made like this today , the colors the animation is so high quality and hand made. I thought that 40 year old anime would bore me but it was amazing.
Great review on my favorite animated movie! Hope you do more of your great information reviews!
Believe it or not, this movie was actually my introduction to Lupin as a character. The only reason i even found out about this movie was because i was interested in what was the first ever film Miyazaki ever directed since I was curious when everyone said that Nausica was his second film.
It's one of, if not my favorite Miyazaki film. It's basically an animated Indiana Jones! I really liked the gorgeous animation and backgrounds, the story is nice and heroic, the characters are likeable, and the action is impressive. I loved this movie so much, and it too was my introduction to Lupin the third.
This movie might have been the one that sparked my obsession with Miyazaki and the Lupin series after I randomly rented this gem at the $1 DVD rental store in the early 2000s.
Miyazaki's a fucking genius. Literally the first movie he ever directed and he just blew it right out of the park.
this was an absolutely glorious video.
I love all of Miyazaki's films (still need to get the recently released "Future Boy Conan" series on Blu-ray. Had it on VHS back in the 80s without subtitles and still loved it. Same for this Lupin film.) and "Cagliostro" is at the top of them, next to "Porco Rosso" and the rest. Thanks for making this video since I didn't know much about the Lupin history, more so that Hayao was helping animate the original series. The changes to the characters did not bother me one bit for the final Miyazaki Lupin outing. They just made them all better IMO. Though it isn't by Miyazaki, I highly recommend "Lupin III: The Fuma Conspiracy".
Love this video, I learned so many new tidbits about this film. This was my introduction to the Lupin franchise and I personally had no difficulty following or picking up on the plot points/characters that were introduced before the film. Didn't know it had this much of a connection to western animation!
Good stuff! One of the best movies ever, and one of the finest Lupin films
I saw this in a movie theatre in the village (Manhattan) when it came out and fell in love with it. The opening credits where you see mostly static images of Lupin and Daisuke Jigen traveling moved me greatly for some strange reason - like emotional postcards. I watch it at least once a year and it's still very fun.
very appropriate use of Skullgirls sountrack for a Lupin The 3rd video
I wouldn't mind you covering more lupin the third media in the future because this video was great
Disney ripping something off is not a surprise
Ripping something off and paying homage are two different things, friendo.
That's totally a ripoff
@@KaiserBeamz I made that comment at a very low point in my life and I do retake what I said.
I just realized this video had only 10k views. Judging by the quality I thought this had at least 100k views.
I really liked the backstory to all of this. Keep up the good work dude. I really enjoyed it!
Purple is the new Black, apparently...
DUDE. count Cag is wearing PURPLE
Black and dark purple are often treated interchangeably in animation.
Just watched it this week! So glad you did a video on it!! Keep it up so insightful!
One of my favorite Hayao Miyazaki movies alongside Nausicaä Of The Valley Of The Wind The Castle of Cagliostro is one of Miyazaki's Masterpieces it's one of the most influential films of all time it's 45 years old now and it's a classic of animation history.
This was my first Lupin film, I saw it on Netflix a while back. Though it was the dubbed version with everyone calling Lupin "Wolf".
Cagliostro was intended to be a Grand Finale of sorts for the Lupin anime, and I hold the same position when I simply ignore series 3, and anything onwards.
Man, I really need to see this movie....
I would totally be down for a review of Mystery of Mamo. I remember renting it years ago and would like to know what you think of it.
I got it recently, im absolutely in love with it
Amazing Video! This deserves way more views!
I've been watching your channel for the past few months, and I've got to say this is your definitely your best video yet!
While I enjoy other takes on Lupin III - Miyazaki's very much did seem to me to be the definitive anime version. I agree with this being an older Lupin - seasoned and possibly near the end of his career. Earlier ( and later ) tales of Lupin that portray him closer to Monkey Punch's original are - to me - him in his wild early 20s. While Castle of Cagliostro Lupin seems - in characterization - to be somewhere between 30-35 years old. He's getting by now on a combination of most of his youthful vigor yet tempered with depth and skill he's picked up along the way. ("Beware an older man in a profession when men die young" and "Age and treachery will overcome youth and reflexes" - that sort of thing). Fujiko's lack of displaying her "talents" might be a concession to time passing as well. A girl won't be able to get by on her looks forever! And this Fujiko seems as skilled as Lupin himself - surprisingly so at times! She's still "got it". But no longer seems to DEPEND on "IT" so much.
And thank you for the clips from Batman and the Great Mouse Detective - I had almost forgotten that those other productions had made OBVIOUS reference to Castle C's clock fight!
What a great in-depth history on this masterpiece! Subbed!
I saw this first then the woman called fujiko mine and then part 2 before I could see part 1 rofl and let me say, Castle of Cagliostro is a treat to any artist, animator and anime otaku's eyes.
Everyone remembers the movie but not the franchise.
It's sad really
Hence why I also hold a small grudge against this movie.
@@dandeh2440 A ridiculous reason
@@mariuspoppFM I get a little tired after a while whenever someone recognizes lupin and just says "Oh Lupin, from Castle of Cagliostro".
For 3 minutes, I almost forgot you was talking about Lupin, then "oh, right... that was the title I clicked on..."
You should review Bye Bye Lady Liberty, or Order To Assassinate
very informative thanx
One of my favorite Miyazaki films.
This is my favourite anime film
Interesting, I can even see some slight character parallels with Castle in the Sky.
Great video. I hope more Lupin Iii content to come
Great work!
This one is still the best Lupin the 3rd movie.
First Lupin-related thing I ever saw.
Loved it!
The Manga dub pronounces Cagliostro correctly. Calliostro. You don’t pronounce the “G” in lasagna. Cagliostro is similarly Italian. Even Google’s pronunciation function gets it wrong though, so no biggie. Just a funfact
Damn, why are you a small youtuber, the way you talk and the editing are awesome, keep it up
I love this film
I love Casgliostro, it's just a hopeful little bean, and it makes me happy.
Still my fave Miyazaki flick
I would like to think that this Lupin is the more mature one that came out of his experiences in Columbus files. Mainly because of that scene with him and the amesia Fujiko. I kind of want to say that experience really got to him and made him a 'little' softer around women. Not a whole lot, but a little
Still a fun way to get introduced to him. Albeit I wonder if this or the first is a better way. I mean, this is my first Lupin movie, but I didn't really start being a fan until after the First and Jigen's gravestone.
i like the idea of lupin being a straight up hero /sometimes/. castle of cagliostro is very good on its own, but i really love the way it sorr of interacts with the rest of the series. when you consider cagliostro as opposed to, say, legend of the gold of babylon, or some of the randier chapters of the manga, it makes him seem rounded, and especially capricious. he's entireky /capable/ of being the "good guy." but that's not always what sounds the most fun. i think that that's a fun way to treat the character
I was so confused in the beginning with the Disney part with no lupin in sight
Lupin is an amazing character. I wonder if you'll ever do a video on the somewhat divisive Green Vs. Red?
The Castle of Cagliostro is one of my first interests into Lupin the Third.
3000 League in Search of Mother... So I knew of Miyazaki since I was born, long before his international fame decade later ^^
Funny enough they made a video game called Sherlock Holmes vs Arson Lupin world greatest Detective vs a master thief.
Yeah boi, I have a Cagliostro DVD around here somewhere. One of the two DVDs I own. I'll have to dig it out.
Digging' that 2 Stupid Dogs soundtrack there.
I saw it before it back when it was a Manga release. I saw the crappy "remaster" that butchered the title sequence. I bought the remaster.
I saw it in the theater upon re-release.
This is one of my favorite films of all time.
I'm talking:
Blade Runner
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Jin Roh
The Sound of Music
Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro
I liked castle of cagliostro (it was my introduction to the Lupin III franchise), but I still saw Lupin as an Anti-Hero in this movie. Sure, he's slightly more heroic, but he's still a weeeeeeeeee bit of a womanizer. Besides, Clarisse was 18-years-old in this movie, and despite that being the legal age for marriage, I don't think even Lupin would try to hit on someone who's practically still very young (in-universe case, that is)
Thanks to you I'm now know that the original FLCL was parodying this movie (or the second season of the series)^^
The only movie I have ever seen in 3 languages and 4 English dubs. Yes even the one that called lupin the wolf.
You sure you're not mixing this up with Mystery of Mamo? To my knowledge, Mamo was the one that had 4 English subs, while Cagliostro just had two.
@@christianyoung1383 you may just be right. I swear I remember a different English track to the 92 & 2000 versions but can’t track it down. The other two languages being Japanese and Spanish of course.
--while I can’t speak either language it was frighteningly easy to get Spanish dubs of some anime back in the day and I would still be waiting to see some of those shows in dvd quality.
I actually saw this yonks ago when my mom rented it from somewhere.

I love this movie so much.
It seems to have inspired the Jackie Chan movie “Meals on wheels” as well. It’s the same basic plot. complete with castle showdown.
Very educational video 👍
Lmao I just watched that 2 days ago
ty for taking briefly about the anne of green gables anime. ty.
Add to my anime list
I noticed a few inaccuracies (or perhaps over-simplification) about the early history of Lupin and I'm really happy that you're not pronouncing it as Lu-pen but how does Jigen become Ji-gan? Every time I heard it really took me away from the video. Really fun video though!
It's JiGEN, not JiGAN. Great video anyway!
1979 it was a great year You had to have been there however
This movie got me into the framchise now i watching every piece of lupin i can get my hands on as a dumb american from the midwest.
So someone took the cutscenes from Cliff Hangar and turned them into a movie?
