Inspector Koichi Zenigata was created by Monkey Punch for the Lupin III manga, which began in 1967, and became a central figure in the anime adaptations that followed. As the relentless Interpol inspector devoted to arresting Arsene Lupin III, his shouted pursuits became one of the series' running signatures. The clip circulates online among anime fans because that single-minded determination is both heroic and funny, making it easy to reuse for chases, callouts and failed captures far beyond the original show.
