Grumpy Jii-san Contacts his First Wolf

Grumpy Jii-san's been watching cartoons for way too long. This week he finally finds a double-overdue origin story. The video was recorded along the Bear Mounain trail in the Oak Creek red rock area.

Oji-san, it's personality is all there! It's a funked up take on James Bond! I don't get how you could say that...

[GrumpyJiisan]

@Alaskaslim "Lupin, Lupin, Lupin, Lupin".... hmmm, let me see, how did the next line go....? oh, yeah, "Lupin, Lupin, Lupin, Lupin". And then.... uh, let me think, the next verse is on the tip on my tongue.... :)

The lupin calibrations gave me a good laugh.

The song might be "Lupin the third part.1" which is very first season opening theme.

"lupin, lupin, lupin, lupin, lupin the third, lupin the third" x 3

I'm supprised that you know this kind of unpopuler song even most japanese don't.

Well your actually missing a few words there, so I'll spell it out for you Oji-san:

Just take out the "()"

And there is a full lyrical version, just so you know.

This theme reminds me of cowboy bebop opening.

Good review. I always wondered how long has Lupin been around. It feels like this anime franchise has been around since forever.
