"As the production was made for Manga Video, who were known for marketing
their products toward teenagers and adults, the dub script was handled
accordingly [...]. It was common for some anime distributors at the time to add
curse words for their dub scripts so that the content rating would be raised,
most likely for marketing purposes. [...] [The] amount of naughty language in
the dub is significantly higher than that found in the subtitle script [...]. [The]
added foul language was a sticking point for many.
[In 2012, Discotek Media] tracked down the original 'stems' for the 2000
English dub, allowing access to the different 'ayers' of the dub's audio [...]
to develop a brand-new stereo mix with improved clarity and directionality.
This superior mix was then also used to create an optional, 'family-friendly'
version of the dub (so called as it removed the majority of the foul language) in
order to bring the dub closer in tone to the original Japanese script. This made
the film more accessible to fans of other Studio Ghibli films, most of which are enjoyed by children and families."
-excerpt from Cagliostro’s American Adventure by Reed Nelson

Dang, Lupin sounded even more like Solid Snake in some parts of the family-friendly dub, which is funny because he was literally played by David Hayter.

And what's funnier is that Solid Snake's Japanese VA is Akio Otsuka, who was the voice of Jigen since Episode 1 of Part 6, Episode 0 of Part 6 was Kiyoshi Kobayashi's last role as Jigen.

Discotek’s is Way too family friendly… I know this is Lupin’s most family friendly film, but the IP is typically viewed as a seinen.

Next to the Oliver and Epcar cast, these two were awesome! I'm almost sad David Hayter and the actor playing Jigen didn't get more roles. The lines were written beautifully and their voices were great! Incidentally, Richard Epcar plays Goemon in this English dub.

According to the blu-ray, it's Michael Gregory who plays Goemon in the 2000 dub.

These family friendly dubbed lines almost remind me of edited for tv broadcasts of movies that would over dub the swear words or out right remove them.

I feel very mixed about this, since swearing is extremely common in Lupin media that not having it feels awkward, but it also feels weird to feature swearing in a Miyazaki movie.

Honestly I prefer the Streamline Dub- both versions here just seem off. In the uncensored one, it sounds like they've punctuated every other line with unnecessary swearing (even in the series it's not often that they swear, it's mostly just humor that's adult) and in the censored version, it's too clean. The streamline dub, whilst not as crude as the Manga Entertainment dub, does still have that feel that's closer to the series.

Oh no. They made a film from an adult franchise have curse words. Gotta fix that. I know Cagliostro is about the closest to family friendly Lupin III has ever been, but you really gotta sanitize it even more? Also, where did you find the manga dub? :O I’ve been looking for a while, but every site or version I’ve seen that was dubbed used the Streamline version.

The uncensored Manga dub is on DVD in the UK, albeit out of print. It features unrestored visuals that look like they came straight from the film print prior to restoration, despite also having the newer sound effects. I didn't like the added cursing. The Japanese version didn't really have it, but they somehow made one of the tamer Lupin films more blue than the more Adult ones. The censored cut is a good English dub alternative for younger viewers to slowly discover Lupin.

@official_nerd4917 2 ай бұрын

Even though the film is the most “family friendly” Lupin surprisingly it still didn’t hold back by giving the Count a very gory death (granted they did kinda zoom out before the last second) but still it didn’t hold back from in making it too family friendly

About the only difference I found jarring was subbing “darn” for “damn.” Otherwise I think the FF version did a reasonably good job of preserving the original plot. This isn’t as offensive as calling onigiri “jelly donuts” or changing a Sailor Moon villain’s gender. Yes, I get that lots of fans prefer the Lupin cast to be more sweary, but I think toning down the coarse language emphasizes the “gentleman” part of the “gentleman thief” archetype that Lupin’s supposed to represent.

It wasn’t their on Disney blu ray I thought I was going crazy but though popped in the dvd and it was their I don’t know why Disney would take it out and keep it unrated at that point just put the original dub in there!

@@jakescartoons6045 It'd be one thing if the Japanese version was filled with swearing, but no, all these cusswords were just thrown in, in an embarrassing attempt at trying to be more adult. This other version however, retains the tone that was intended by the Japanese original. And besides, this isn't replacing the original dub, the blu ray includes both versions, this isn't some anti consumer thing that buries the original, this is just another option for those who desire it. It's not ruining anything, it's just user friendly
