Lupin Confirmed for North American TV
|The Associated Press newswire has confirmed that Pioneer will back television broadcast of Lupin the 3rd on American and Canadian television. The article, however, merely confirms that Lupin animation will be broadcast on North American television and does not specifically explain if this refers to TV episodes or TV movies, nor does the article reveal exactly what or how much Lupin animation Pioneer owns distribution licence for. The article refers to Lupin as a “campy 1971 Japanese cartoon” by way of introduction, but this does not confirm that it will be the 1971 first of three television series which will be broadcast in America.
