Discussion Name a anime/manga universe where the Cooper Gang can do well in or at least make it interesting. One that best suits them.

Technically a game first, but it did later get an anime adaptation of the game's story. The idea of having either Phoenix help Sly prove his innocence the one time he's actually caught or Sly helping Phoenix break into the various places he's not supposed to be in to get evidence.

If you want to go back in time a little, Demon Slayer would be a neat fit. Power-scaling wise, they should be able to keep up so far as the Entertainment District Arc. Bentley may struggle, a little, but he won't have to be on the frontlines the whole time, leaving most of it to Sly and Murray who could do really well.

Cyberpunk maybe? (Edgerunners in particular, I may be saying this because I'm biased but I feel like they absolutely fit the archetypes associated with Cyberpunk)

I was describing some Sly Cooper with my best friend yesterday, he has never played or seen anything of the series, and he says, and I quote "How come this sounds like Lupin the 3rd?"

Not gonna lie I kinda just want to see them in an Ace Attorney game purely because I think it'd be really funny. (Ace Attorney counts cuz it has a manga.)

Persona 5, I believe they adapted the games into a manga or anime

Persona 5. A game first, but got it's own anime. I 100% believe they would be a fantastic crossover.

If I had to chose just a anime/manga alone Imma say Black Butler. Just feel like demons would be a next step for the Cooper Gang given their universe.

Imagine Bentley having to face off against Eggman in a 1-on-1 hack attack

Even though its not exactly an anime, I would like to say Zenless Zone Zero since it is a anime game. (so ig it could technically count with the anime genre?) The reasons are 1. It does have anthropomorphic animals in there which are classified as "Thirens" and 2. They could actually have attributes (which are basically elements) and fighting classes that suit them well! From what I've seen from the Sly gameplay which I have listed down below of what I personally think they would be within combat! (Listed by attributes and fighting style/classes)

Sly - Physical, Attacker

Bentley - Electric, Support/Anomaly

Murray - Fire, Anomaly

Carmelita - Electric, Stunner

(Totally not bc I had this concept for a while and wanted to yap about it!)
