The show will feature a lovely new art style and much of the exciting, humorous hi-jinx seen in the 1977 - 1980 Shin Lupin series. It looks like all the gang will be making an appearance, including Inspector Zenigata and the Fiat 500!
While the series has only just been announced and only a couple of images have been shown to the public, a list of the key staff has been revealed. All of this information is coming from MIPCOM, a TV and entertainment festival that is held in Cannes, France each year.
