- Before Castle of Cagliostro, there was the first Lupin film. The one TMS used to take advantage of the film industry's lax content standards to make a Lupin that was more true to the spirit of Monkey Punch-sans original manga. The result is wild and crazy plot with equally wild and crazy animation that nevertheless ends up being the best starting point for the Lupin franchise.

Mystery of Mamo has the best conspiracy in an anime movie. What really wraps it all together is that Lupin is a bad guy but he cares more about the world than any of his antagonists.
And the moral of this movie: "Be Grateful for Democracy!"
Fun Fact: Yoshikawa also directed "Kirby: Right Back at Ya!". An anime show based on Nintendo's Kirby video game fanchise
I can’t choose between the two. Mamo and Cagliostro are my favorite Lupin the Third movies ever!!!
This is the best entry of the series. Compelling character drama, a terrific villain, insanely sharp satire, and some grand, surreal imagery.
The biggest issue with the lupin franchise is that its been 40 years and still not had a villain as good as mamo
Mamo looks like first form Frieza in a white wig
What really impressed me about this movie is the colors. MY GOD THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL HERE. This is one of the most colorful lupin movies I love it.
This movie's bat shit insane and I love it, it's got a lot of flaws but in place of it has ideas that are explored to a really great and interesting degree. The character interactions between the gang are some of the best the entire franchise has to offer and Fujiko's characterisation is really good. The scene where Lupin walks off to go steal back his "dream" is some Real Folk Blues shit, gives me chills every time. It's one of the few instances in all of Lupin where Lupin actually comes off as a legend in his own way.
rip otsuka.
Goemon slicing that guy's head and him trying to hold his head together as it falls apart is such a cool visual that always makes me wince.
I fist got my hands on a copy of this movie in the early 2000’s when I was about 11, at a comic con in San Diego. The movie caught my eyes because of the topless Fujiko on the cover. I had never seen Lupin before. And I got the movie from the stand for a good price and took it home. Fujiko in this movie was my “awakening” in a sense. But that’s TMI.
"You can die a hundred more times for like i care and doesn't change a thing, as longest as someone called lupin exist, my mission in life will be chase him to death"
This is definitely my favorite of all the Lupin films! I love the animation, character designs, and the insane story it tells! This truly is the absolute essence of Lupin III.
Wow, Lupin had his own Clone Saga shtick before Spider-man

finally, i'm tired of people saying that "The Castle of Cagliostro is the best introduction to Lupin III franshize". Yes, it's a good Miyazaki film and overall a really impressive animation piece that influenced a lot of animators in it's time, but that doesn't mean it's a good introduction to Lupin and his gang. It feels more like a resolve for those characters instead of introduction.
I highly enjoyed Mystery of Mamo, but I will take Castle of Cagliostro in a heartbeat. Both are wonderful ways to get into Lupin, and I honestly think Mamo’s Lupin is like a much younger Lupin, while Cagliostro’s Lupin as you mentioned is one who has matured, and I honestly think of the two as one. But both movies are great in their own rights.
Man this movie is wild.
Mamo is a wild ride, I think it captures the source material much more accurate than "Castle", which feels too much like Miyazaki film.
