Inspector Kōichi Zenigata is one of the main characters of the manga and anime, Lupin the 3rd. He is an incredibly talented, yet often bumbling police officer who is affiliated with Interpol and has made it his life's goal to capture Lupin III. Zenigata is based on a famous Japanese crime-fighting character named Heiji Zenigata. The character is a few hundred years old and was best known for throwing coins as a weapon. Zenigata's handcuff throwing technique is his own take on the character's choice of weapon. In early points of the Lupin III franchise, he was directly related to the fictional detective, to the point where his full name was Heiji Zenigata VII, though his blood relation to Heiji Zenigata doesn't come into play as much as Lupin III's and Goemon Ishikawa XIII's relations to Arsène Lupin and Ishikawa Goemon, respectively. His blood relation with Heiji Zenigata would even be erased as he was renamed Koichi Zenigata when Part 2 started airing. His true counterpart, however, is Maurice Leblanc's Inspector Ganimard, who was Arsène Lupin's rival in the original novels by Maurice Leblanc. it's hilarious when Lupin died zenigata will put sad face and 😭 crying lol
