Surprised (well not that surprised) of no GunBuster news. Adding Project A-Ko 3 to the RACS list.

What's Farewell to Nostradamus like? I'm slowly making my way through Lupin.

Marshal: It's a bit more divisive, and maybe eerie, given the AUM parallels.
Zelos: No Gunbuster and no Kodocha S.2.

Will definitely be getting Fare to Nostradamus. It's not the among Lupin's greatest adventures, but still a very fun one.
Discotek's own Digimon upscale also looks fantastic! Faaaaaar better than the Japanese Blu-rays. When it releases subbed I'll go for it!

Just this morning I got the Lupin III Part 1 BD and Mrs. Pepperpot SD-BD! Keep up the great work, Discotek Wink

It was one of the decent TV specials of Lupin for me that I seen years ago back when Funimation licensed a number of the TV specials. Has some fun with the chemistry between Lupin and the young girl he's protecting from a cult of Nostradamus worshipers. Does have some of the typical issues you'd find in many Lupin TV specials or films in that it doesn't always have a clue how to implement all of the major characters of the series, as Jigen and Goemon felt mostly directionless outside of serving as Lupin's backup in situations where he gets in a pinch.

Anywho, still waiting on Discotek to acquire two of the remaining TV specials I've yet to see with Seven Days Rhapsody and Sweet Lost Night. Outside of the upcoming Cat's Eye crossover, those are the only two remaining entries from the franchise I've yet to see.

The definition of mediocrity.

That's no TV special. It's actually the fourth Lupin III theatrical feature film. It has quite good animation and looks great on Blu-ray (I own the Japanese disc). As I recall the movie is one of those that takes place almost entirely inside a ludicrously giant skyscraper. I like this one a lot.
