damian 0 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Slowly over the last few weeks more and more people, mainly girls, around the company have mentioned the word 'Lupin' or perhaps 'Loopin'. Eventually I asked what they are talking about and they said as my hair has got a little longer (I cut it quite short a while ago), I have started to look like Lupin/Loopin. What or who is Lupin/Loopin????????? Last week I thought they were calling me loopy. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 That would be Lupin Sansei, close associate of Goemon. The resemblance is striking. Lupin is a professional thief, so that part fits too. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 Thanks Ocean. It actually comes as no suprise to me as of late I have been passing comment as to how my head looks like a bowling ball. This is now the fourth fictional/cartoon character that I have been named after. Bam Bam Grover Lupin *cringe* Bambi. Why can't I have a real-life nickname? This is me: Arsène Lupin III. Lupin is the third generation descendent of Arsène Lupin. As is the trait in the Lupin family, he is a gentleman thief, not to be confused with Robinhood who stole from more or less evil rich persons and gave to the poor; Lupin simply steals from rich villains with the spoils being split between himself and his colleagues. It is interesting to note that in Lupin III's first incarnations, he simply stole from whom ever he pleased, and that his taste for stealing from villains developed later on in the series(as a whole). Clever and cunning, Lupin is the best thief in the world. Lupin usually wears either a blue or red jacket and is armed with his trusty Walther P-38. This is the far cooler Goemon: Goemon Ishikawa. Although Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon usually operate together, Lupin and Jigen are the only two who stay together consistently as Goemon usually is in the habit of disappearing when the need suits him. Goemon is even more quiet and reserved than Jigen. Goemon's most notable skill is his handiwork with his sword, which is not surprising as he is a Samurai bandit. At least I get to be buddies with Goemon. Link to post Share on other sites

Goemon 0 Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 We may be friends, but I still think you're a dirty slob heathen. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 There are worse cartoon characters to look like than Lupin -- being likened to Bakabon or Ten-ten-kun would not be welcome. Lupin is notable for his abundant 70s lounge cool and savoir faire, and I have spent many a happy Sunday morning following his international exploits. His girlfriend is hot too.

namagaii 0 Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 Better than Doraemon and Crayon Shin-chan as well. Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 Is it cool if I accompany you guys on a caper or two? Strangely enough there seem to be a few cartoon characters (or cleaning product mascots) in our rag tag gang of trouble makers. Link to post Share on other sites
