A new NTV starting on April 4 at 1:29 a.m.
Kouichi Yamadera will play Inspector Zenigata.
Last October, the voice cast for the Lupin III anime changed for the first time in 16 years. The voice cast for Lupin the Third: Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna is reflecting that change.
The series revolves around the character of Fujiko Mine, depicting her and the rest of the Lupin III cast during their younger days. The series will reportedly capture the "sensuality" present in Lupin III manga in its "daring interpretation" of the franchise.
A NTV television ad air last December.
Last week, listed a promotional video for a "new television series premiering in April."
The last Lupin III television anime series was Lupin III: Part III, which aired from 1984-1985.
