About

Inspector Zenigata

Though sometimes seen as a bumbling fool, Zenigata is in fact a consummate professional and master detective, able to ferret out exactly where Lupin is and what he might be planning next. Skilled in judo, karate, and often attached a squad of skilled officers, Zenigata joined Interpol in order to bring Lupin, the only criminal he's yet to arrest, to justice.

Despite being Lupin's chief antagonist, Zenigata has a begrudging respect for the thief, and is the only man on Earth capable of understanding Lupin's goals and actions. Even though Lupin often escapes, it is usually due to the fact that Lupin is more resourceful and has his team to back him up, while Zenigata prefers to make his arrests like a charging bull, breaking through any obstacle head-on to continue the chase.

Appearances

Zenigata, along with the rest of the core cast of Lupin III, appeared in the movie Lupin III vs. Detective Conan, where Zenigata assists the kingdom of Vespania in protecting their priceless crown jewels from Lupin, only to uncover the truth behind the deaths of the queen and crown prince. It also shows Zenigata's trademark resilience, able to wake up from a stun gun shock after only thirty seconds that Conan states "Would knock out an elephant for thirty minutes!"
