Is this… dubbed? Or is LUPIN just really out of sync? I dunno about the latter: I expect Netflix to have better sound production values. It’s probably dubbed. But why didn’t they just go with subtitles?

PS: Yeah, I was kind of hoping for a Lupin the 3rd, too. Ah, to be twenty-three again… no, wait, that would be a mistake. Never mind.
I tried watching Lupin the 3rd. Repeatedly. Just doesn’t resonate, in part because I dislike the artistic style.
.
That said .. this is based on Lupin I .. Lupin III is the grandson or something .. so yeah, not quite what I’d hope for either.
.
Still .. the guys behind “Now You See Me” did really well, so .. I can believe this will be good.
.
And yeah, probably parts are dubbed .. because Lupin is originally French .. the scenery is French .. the cars are French .. I suspect they shot it in France for a French market and dubbed it when they realized how little else they had for 2020/early 2021.
.
So .. thanks, COVID?
