Notes[]
- The plotline of Lupin disrupting a scheme involving hypnotizing followers with drugs and using said drug on the following's leader is similar to the first episode of The Woman Called Fujiko Mine, though of course there are lots of differences between the two episodes. TWCFM episode 1 focuses more on Lupin stealing the source of the drug from a cult, and Fujiko fails to use the drug against the cult leader.
- The plotline of people betting on whether Lupin or Greco win was later recycled in Part 5 Episode 2 and Part 5 Episode 3 for the Death Day site.
