About the cigarette holders? Yeah, that was funny.
The talk about the art style makes me think not only Aragones, but Harvey Kurtzman (founder of MAD). Which makes it über-cool. _________________ "When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."- C.S. Lewis

I thought some of the little jokes were damn good and surprised they made it past the censors at Adult Swim (luckily it was somewhat disguised in what was said)
It looks like episode 3 (the one with the Nazis) didn't make it by the censors and got skipped.
Everyone's afraid of offending somebody and getting sued. (Stupid lawyers!)

That was Pioneer's decision. They want Lupin to be as popular as Futurama for the CN, so they're treading carefully. It will air eventually.

you know, there's something very quaint about old choppy animation of the 1970's era anime... I've recently gotten the idea to show more "old school" anime like this in my anime club here at MSU... usually when we start showing older stuff like the original Mobile Suit Gundam or Captain Harlock or Gatchaman, people usually really dig it and get very reminiscent of the "good old days"...
now if only CN could play Voltron, G-Force, and even Speed Racer more often... _________________ "The principles you live by create the world you live in; if you change the principles you live by, you will change your world." -Blaine Lee

I finally checked out the anime (and watched an old tape I found of Lupan) and was surprised. The manga has VERY different stylings than the anime. It's alot rougher.....and has a free feel to it that doesn't seem to be present in the anime. In the manga the literal physical shapes of characters seem less clearly defined than in the anime.
