![]() ![]() ![]() It’s not helped by the story having a twist that undermines the motivations of all the characters involved in the plot. The mystery itself is interesting but somewhat clumsily executed. The plot in particular focuses on a case related to the murder of John Watson several years prior, leaving Holmes to raise Watson’s daughter Lily – and a case which Lupin had a tie to. Serialized Plot 1 is based around Sherlock Holmes, which in this universe is a title rather than a given name, with the title held by whoever is, ostensibly, the world’s greatest (British) Detective. This is all aggravated by splitting the show into two different serialized plots – one per cour. Instead, the series tries to be a hybrid, sort of like Part 4, but instead of the stand-alone episodes fitting in the overall continuity, they go off on their own directions in ways that are very hit-or-miss. Unlike previous Lupin series, this one neither has a serialized focus (like with Woman Called Fujiko Mine) or a primary episodic focus (like Parts 1 through 3). ![]() Lupin The Third: Part 6 is, unfortunately, a mess. ![]()
