a5c7b9f00b Lupin encounters a magic lamp. Sweet Lost Night is a great adventure with Lupin III.<br/><br/>The title is appropriate,the twist here is that Lupin can&#39;t remember anything that happened during the night. Twelve hours are a blank to him, and some additional memory wackiness comes into playwell,someone is stealing memories.<br/><br/>This sets up some great stuff,Lupin scrambles to find out what he did during that time. A very cool narrative device, it sets up some nice gagswellkeeps the intrigue going for the main plot. Lupin even writes on his body to try and remember things, à la the film Memento.<br/><br/>The star of the show, Lupin, is portrayed very well here. He&#39;s slick, cool, funny, a fool for love, and he takes all the craziness going on around him in stride.<br/><br/>Lupin&#39;s partner Jigen is great in this, he&#39;s always there to help in a jam. The lovable cop Inspector Zenigata has some really entertaining stuff in this too. Goemon is also used to great comic effect here. Fujiko is used a bit differently than of late, here she&#39;s against Lupin. This fun rivalry is an amusing aspect of their complicated relationship.<br/><br/>This plot involves a magic lamp, and a girl named Drew. She&#39;s a pretty straight forward guest heroine, although she does have some fun flirty humor with Lupin.<br/><br/>Pretty much, this has all the aspects you&#39;d expect from a Lupin anime. It has car chases, over-the-top action, lots of great comedy, and some brief emotional moments to give it some weight. It&#39;s all done with a fast thrill-a-minute pace too. The atmosphere is great, lushly animated with fantastic music and voice actingalways.<br/><br/>A great action/adventure with a clever twist, this one is a lot of fun. Give this a watch, it&#39;s must see anime.
