Fav race would be Takumi vs. Impact blue. He really showed off his skills to the fullest extent.

At what point, if at all, does the anime stop being faithful to the manga? And if it does, do you recommenced switching to the manga or just stick to the anime for the remainder of the series.

Best songs right there.

I liked this scene with this music.

The best part about Extra Stage is watching Shingo act like an actual human being. He's one of the most relatable characters in this show when he's not driving a car.

>>147372786
Shingo is great, i don't know why the main series built him up as a dickhead...

>>147372422
>>147372371
4th stage was mediocre, but the final race made up for it.

>>147372371
These are kinda slow compared to other euros...

>>147372319
The 2006 version has kind of a better flow.

D- DID I LEAVE THE OWEN ON?

>>147375158
I suppose they are. I started listening to Eurobeat after I finished watching Initial D and I guess my taste changed after listening to it exlusively for half a year. I still enjoy the high energy tracks, but only a few of them hit that sweet spot anymore.

>>147370849

Shit taste.

>>147375753
Y tho? You can't just state something without backing it up.

>>147375814

>backing up opinions

What?

>>147375860
Well there must be a reason for your opinion to exist, i wanna discuss the stages, but how can i do that if you don't even speak...

The races were well translated, but they were cut down, and no eurobeat. The eurobeat edition is worth a watch, but otherwise they are useless.

Hi
Shouldn't you be in the Wangan Midnight thread?
Oh wait, NO ONE CARES ABOUT THAT SERIES
The music is good though, I'll admit that.
That's a damn good looking Fairlady z

>>147384486
It's a good series for fans of drag, but it has serious pacing issues, and can be bit bullshit. I guess if you are a serious /o/ it might be worth a watch.
>>147384130

>>147384471
What the fuck? I don't remember this happening, is this from someone imagination or what?

Genuine spoilers for a very old series:

Who else was pissed when it was revealed that the "D" stood for dream?

>>147391373
Check the fookin' filename.

>>147391475
I don't care it will always be DORIFTO in my heart

>>147391536
I just fucking watched the episode, seems like I fucking went from 19 to 21 when first watching it, fuck.

>>147391728
You must've been very confused about the entire Mako/Iketani thing for the rest of the series then.

Shingo best boy

>>147391870
Yeah, though seems pretty obvious how it ended considering that no one in the series haves actually a good romance

>>147391475
I wasn't pissed, but I'd spent the whole series thinking it was "driver".

>>147392208
The most relatable at least.

>>147391475
I think it was a last minute decision, to tie the later stages together somewhat. Everyone knows it actually stands for DICK

>>147393833
Of course, the one Keisuke wanted to concentrate on.

Initial D should have a spin-off about Shingo struggling to repair and tune his shitbox.

Why is the Honda Civic so shit?

How come none of the other stages feel as comfy as First? Also why is Takumi so much less chill in later stages? I just got to fifth stage and I'm gonna keep watching until the end but I'm not enjoying it as much anymore

What the fuck?

>>147371345
Just watch the anime for the music

>>147400745
>How come none of the other stages feel as comfy as First?
They removed almost everything character-related in 4. Plus, it's not Akina anymore.

>Also why is Takumi so much less chill in later stages?
Because he started to care about winning.

>I just got to fifth stage and I'm gonna keep watching until the end but I'm not enjoying it as much anymore
It can't be helped. Enjoy Ryousuke's race though since it at least has some sudden backstory.
