When It Comes to "The Castle of Cagliostro," This Is the Iconic Line! Inspector Zenigata from "Lupin III" Delivers a Timelessly Cool and Dashing Quote Worth Remembering Forever

Even if you’ve never actually watched the film itself, there’s a good chance you still know this line. “He’s stolen something outrageous. Your heart.” There can be no argument: this legendary line remains an acclaimed gem in the history of anime.

The "Lupin III" anime series is based on the manga by Monkey Punch, which follows the exploits of the elusive master thief Arsene Lupin III and his companions. The second theatrical release, "Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro," premiered in 1979 and features Lupin (voiced by Yasuo Yamada) as he investigates the secret of counterfeit bills known as "Goat bills" in the Duchy of Cagliostro. This film also marks the directorial debut of Hayao Miyazaki and is one of the most beloved entries in the series.

The heroine, Clarisse (voiced by Sumi Shimamoto), is the princess of the Duchy of Cagliostro. When Count Cagliostro (voiced by Tarō Ishida), who seeks to become the true ruler in both name and reality, tries to force her into marriage, she escapes and is rescued by Lupin.
