Mistakes[]
- At 16:49-16:51 when the tank police van drives off, a border at the right and at the bottom can be seen.
Notes[]
- The character named Kōsuke Holmes Akechi references three detectives: Kogorō Akechi, Sherlock Holmes and Kosuke Kindaichi. Lupin has dealt with Akechi in the Pilot Film and the first chapter of the manga, met descendants of Sherlock Holmes and a similar detective to Kandaichi known as Kosuke Kindani.
- When Goemon is sat down facing "The Mouth of Truth" in Rome, this is a reference to the TV Special Operation: Return the Treasure where Lupin stole a fake and replaced it with the original.
