Lupin and the gang are teaming up for an advertising campaign with popular tipple, Black Nikka Clear Whiskey.

While the promotion does not officially start until April 1st 2020, Japanese shoppers are already reporting sightings of the Lupin themed bottles. While details on what is involved are currently yet to be revealed, the text on the bottle roughly translates to “Can you find Lupin? A fashionable way to find our thief!”

Lupin… you’re under arrest!

The Universal Studio’s Japan Lupin actors and actresses are at it again.

This latest footage shows a determined Inspector Zenigata, as full of energy as ever, scoping out a member of the public who attended the park in full Lupin cosplay. The Inspector feverishly pats down the impostor, only to leave disappointed. The member of the public was given a full apology from Inspector Zenigata’s assistant, who was also on the scene at the time.
