So does Lupin ever get w/Fujiko?

Now if it happens in this movie, don't hit me with "Did you watch the movie you idiot?" Cuz I haven't and haven't seen enough of the movies to know one way or the other. I've seen probably about 50% of the tv series episodes and that's all. In each, Lupin NEVER got to be with Fujiko in a relationship OR sleeping w/her. SO anyway, please let me know.

Thanks!

i'm not sure about the cartoon, but the manga they have a child, but that it's self ruined Lupin and his days ended.

In the green jacket series, which is a bit more serious than the red and pink series, Fujiko often shows some tenderness towards Lupin, they seem pretty close so you can imply that they're lovers.

In the Episode 0 : First Contact tv special, they most certainly hook up, but the ending let's us believe that it may not have been all true.

In the Secret of Twilight Gemini tv special, They get it on but get interrupted by the villains, but when they find themselves alone later on, they most likely go all the way. Lots of Lupin/Fujiko activity in this one! :D

I like to believe that Lupin's motivation for pursuing Fujiko is that he was able to get her at least once.
I love Cagliostro to death and Clarisse is sweet as hell but no, she's not Fujiko, she's his number 1! Love these two!

I agree with anything you said there.
The thing about the first series (aka green jacket) is that overall the episodes were less flamboyant than the second series, but the characters had more depth, hence you had the feeling there was a 'real' relationship between the leads, particularly in the Fujiko/Lupin case.

Beautiful thing is that there is really nothing cheesy or predictable about these two: they might just be enemies as they could be lovers in the next film, episode or even minute, and make it look so funny and believable.
I truly think they are the greatest couple ever conceived for this kind of fiction, whether be animated or with real people.

Fujiko Mine might have been vaguely modelled on the 'Bond girls' (including the pun in the name), but she makes the whole lot of them look like a bunch of schoolgirls falling all over for their maths professor: they always predictabily end up being subdued by mr Bond.
No such case for Fujiko: she always makes decisions entirely by herself, keeps Lupin right in his place, and, in more than one occasion, she is the one that saves his and the other guys' asses .......... when was the last time you saw that in a Bond movie????????!!!!
She would use Pussy Galore as a doormat, and thank God she's just a cartoon.
Not bad coming from a country that has a (from a Western perspective) reputation for having humble and submissive women!

I confess, I have a 30 year-old crush on this woman and still hope to meet her equivalent in flesh and blood one day, although that would certainly mean that I'll shortly end up killed, robbed or heartbroken if I'm really lucky.
But then, if Lupin can forgive her a million times, so can I..... at least once or twice.

Yeah, it really put their relationship in a better light than in the red jacket series.

I admit I myself have fancied Clarese.
