Being a Lupin III fangirl for five years

 Five years ago I became a proper Lupin III fangirl and it has inspired me in so many ways. I have traveled, examined artefacts at museums and read old books and manuscripts. I've been motivated to learn in a way I haven't been before. I've been a tourist in my own city and discovered hidden corners. I've even found the grave marker of one of the original Arsène Lupin's actors, Gerald du Maurier.

Not to mention the ways I've been inspired in my art. My film 'I Boarded The Wrong Plane' uses heavy color inspiration from Part 2.






Even this closeup from 'Sweet Nothings' was inspired by 'The Mystery of Mamo'.
