How are the other stages?
Progressively worse
>>150204795
Ups and downs?
Which one has the most hype?
I liked it so much that i re-watch it like 12 times stage 1 through 4 back in 2010, 2017 and im still too brike to afford an ae86 :(
First three stages are good, after that it falls into pure car autism with no semblence of interesting character moments anymore. Even the use of music becomes worse and worse.
>>150204816
It begins as a free-spirited manga about kids hanging out and ripping hektik skids with bits of awkward teen romance thrown in, then nosedives into a generic villain-of-the-week battle shounen with toegay races instead of fights.
>>150205236
Where does it nosedive?
>>150205336
You could just watch it fag
>>150205336
In the anime project D begins with fourth stage. There are some good moments, but fifth/final stage seem to usually get rated pretty low.
>>150205664
Last two races are worth it. NSX and R32 races are good.
>>150204736
Just watch the whole thing
I wanted to die by the end of it but you might as well just watch it to see how the shitshow ends
>>150204736
1st stage is the best, but I still loved the rest. Some later battles were especially good like the cappuccino rain battle, and the godfoot/godarm.
I WANNA DANCE
>>150206483
Yeah, even if later half isn't as good, it doesn't mean you shouldn't watch it once because it has some cool moments to be salvaged from it and the music is still top notch.

1st to 3rd are good
4th stage is a hard nosedive
5th stage is merely bad instead of shit
6th stage you might as well watch if you get that far
>>150204736
Stage 4 shifts the ratio of showing the race to talking about the race in a bad direction and it gets even worse in Stage 5+.
Did they ever do a battle stage version of Stage 5 and Final? As I would imagine it would be a better way to watch them.
>>150209204
>Did they ever do a battle stage version of Stage 5 and Final?
No, Battle Stage 2 is just about 4th stage. But it has 2 exclusive races from the manga that didn't make it into the series.
I downloaded this. It's a poorly animated 4:3 aspect ratio low resolution cartoon piece of garbage. I was hoping to get car talk and race action and loads of kiddie porn but all I got was low budget $h!t.
Stage 1 and 2 are good. Stage 3 best. 4,5 and rest unnecessary and a bit bland.
>>150204816
> ups and downs
I'd say generally downhill, with some drifting from side to side.

This is a bad post
Can someone tell me how to actually drift? When I take a corner my car just turns normally. How do I swing it's ass around like Takumi?
>>150212647
1. Buy at least 50 trees of Black Ice and hang them all in your mirror
2. Install a few simple mods on your clapped out civic
3. Drive to your nearest Toegay
4. Put your Eurobeat CD in
5. Inhale the FRESHâ„¢ before entering a turn then handbrake and countersteer
You'll be doing Hektik Skids in no time

MUAHHAHHAHAH.
>>150205095
season 5 was the worst, season 2-4 was still good, but not as good as season 1
Do they ever explain who told Takumi that Natsuki was cheating on him?
>>150215566
Oh shit good question...
I can only think of this guy Takumi hit in the face but i forgot if they actually confirmed this
Takumi is getting married!

It gets worse as it goes on, by the end of the fourth stage, every race dagumi wins is a total asspull.
The artstyle gets fucking awful too.
Everything that went wrong in Initial D is Ryousuke Takahashi's fault
>>150204736
Stage 2 is decent and short so no reason not to watch it
Stage 3 is a movie and is good
Stage 4 isn't as bad as people say, but don't watch it expecting more Takumi and friends, it loses it's SoL moments and is more about Keisuke and racing
Stage 5 is good for it's first episode and last race and 3rd to last race
>>150216091
Bunta would not allow this.
>>150217768
This, if we had never had PROJECTOUGH DEE the series would have never turned into a fight of the week shounen.
>>150212647
if you don't know how to drift don't practice on a corner on your normal drives
do it in an empty parking lot
>>150216577
I see papa found somebody better after natsuki dumped him.

Speaking of Legends any one know if its worth watching, all I know is they retold first stage, went all out in trying to copy the art style from the manga during the races, and no Eurobeat...
>>150218600
Watch the Eurobeat-added version
>>150218618
ok is the Eurobeat-added version any good then
>>150218053
Is the old man a space marine or something?
>>150217208
But all the best songs are from 4/5th stage....
>>150215566
In the manga they do. It's this girl on the left. Also Papa is her estranged father and Miki(the guy takumi punched) is her brother. She had a crush on Takumi.

>>150204736
First two stages are good. Starts to go downhill in Third Stage, and is a racer of the week snoozefest in Fourth and Fifth Stages. Final Stage is pretty good though, if only for the fact that Dagumi is racing a kid who is basically him at the start of the series on his home course.

What's wrong cuck? Fat old man stole your waifu?
>>150223190
Nah. It should be Bunta cucking someone else, he is an old rich man.
Otherwise how he was able to buy a 22b.
You can't even meme right.
>>150223278
Seriously, where the actual fuck did he get a 22B?
>>150223278
It's a joke senpai don't get so autistic
>>150212647
1)Buy a car with engine in the front and rear wheel drive, manual transmission
2) Install aftermarket Limited Slip Differential if it has open diff. Google what the fuck it is.
3) Don't have huge tires. It's easier to spin tires of proper size for your car.
4) don't have wider back tires. you don't need to much grip on your back tires and I think it increases understeer too but I'm not sure
Okay, the car is ready.
1) Now you need to make the wheels spin during cornering. If you have powerful engine you can just give it more gas (probably full throttle), if not just downshift before the corner. So basically keep highest RPM.
2) So when your wheels start spinning you turn the wheel to where you corner. The back will start sliding. (well you basically do this simultaneously).
3) Now when you car is turned sideways enough, you need to quickly turn the front wheels into the opposite direction (countersteering). Just let go of the steering wheel, it will rotate to neutral by itself, the turn it with your hand so the front wheels face the same direction your back sliding in (like in this picture >>150212805)
4) So just control your speed and trajectory and be very careful. If you turn the front wheel too much the car will spin into the opposite direction (but you can catch the car by countersteering in the opposite direction again. That is used to chain drift consecutive turns).
5) As you're about to exit the corner, you gradually reduce countersteering so when you're exiting the corner you're just going straight. And we're out of corner, you're done.
>>150223810
This is good advice
Just know that DO NOT do hand break turns on a RWD car unless you ARE holding the clutch down

He would have won in the next race without a problem though, and it's not like she cared.
why do these chicks look like Takumi and Itsuki
>>150227802
Takumi's girlfriend in the fifth stage is (literally) Takumi in a wig.
