This is my favorite English dub cast for the Lupin gang (though the Koike movie cast has grown on me a little). I'm glad they're doing things more accurately than Part II's dub, though.

Good. There have been various casts for Lupin over the years, but this cast is always my preference. I was hoping that if Sentai was willing to pull a bit of a surprise move with snagging Part 6 that they would follow through on maintaining the cast from Part 5.

It wouldn't be a Lupin dub without these voices for me.

Sentai has nothing to do with the dub.TMS must be producing it themselves and just licensed it to Sentai(the fact that Sentai stopped caring about consistency with casting dubs from outside of Texas should be a sign)

I'm still curious as to whether the eventual Blu-Ray release of Part 6 will have the Geneon cast or Funimation cast.

Definitely this cast. There’s no reason for them to do a new dub for Blu-ray. The FUNimation voices for Fujiko and Zenigata aren’t even really active anymore (sadly, because they were pretty good).

In the Fuji mine series, Zenigata is voiced by Jigen. In fact, throughout the history of Lupin, the only characters Richard Epcar has not played is Fujiko and Lupin.

Well that needs to change, Part 6 will have Fujiko voiced by Richard Epcar.

Wait a tic, he played Goemon once? When?

One of my favorite casts for Lupin, so happy about that.

He never played Goemon either. His credit in Castle of Cagliostro was a fan guess. It was actually Michael Gregory.
