Even after 25 years, the first season is still interesting.

The original work is certainly interesting, but as expected, a car is meant to be driven.

The broadcast time is…

The panda trainer bought by the lead voice actor is still sparkling.

The intense competition fits perfectly with Eurobeat.

Nutrients that can only be obtained from this obviously CGI car chase.

Hmm, I want to sponsor it, but an anime about street battles is, after all…

Huh? The sequel is a race on closed public roads?

I laughed when I saw that the Deja Vu video has 160 million views on YouTube; everyone really likes it.

The CG feels quite dated, yet it doesn’t bother me.

As expected, the CG in the first season is old.

I like the character design from the first season the most.

It’s funny how my older brother seems like a different person every season.

The episode starts with a scene of the delivery-returning 86 driving on Space Cowboy, which leads to the stylish anime original connected to the car radio of the gas station manager they pass by.

It’s a good thing that this setting of driving a car as a middle school student was from 20 years ago, because it seems like it would be disregarded in today’s anime.

With that setting, Takumi’s character would be completely different.

My favorite insert song is “Forever Young.”

The best part is when the lights turn on at the same time.

I feel like the combination of that rush and Eurobeat makes you instinctively enjoy it, similar to Jiro-style.

That’s unfair.

I like Nakaya from R32 as my opponent.

I might just like the R32.

I think the person who came up with the idea of playing Eurobeat during the race scene is amazing.

I understand that Natsuki gets talked about a lot, but the scene where she zooms down the snowy road in third gear was truly the best…

It’s okay because we’re a street attack team.

Is it okay to treat early moves as SSR?

The taillights are nice when they are lit, but it’s also cool how the brake lights bring out the shape of the 86.

In the first and second seasons, Osamu Hosoi is more of a narration role for the next episode rather than playing the role of Fumihiro.

Even if Iketani-senpai and that Number 2 whose name I forgot give it their all, they are weaker than any nameless mob of Red Suns, really such a bunch of losers.

Bunko was still in a tough situation back then.

Even though it was somewhat coincidental, the idea of flowing Euro music into the battle’s soundtrack is perfect.

The incredibly high-sense direction of the battle scene is just too SSR.

At the time of Initial D, the cars were still affordable for the performers…

Look at this MF Ghost car!

It seems there was some data indicating that using Eurobeat as background music in races was tested and well-received in the Sega Rally game before it was done in Initial D.

Kenji-senpai is skilled enough to succeed in a gap drop just once by coincidence later on…

It’s scary that there are multiple anonymous users who bought 86 under the influence of MFG.

Well, it’s strange to seriously try to go around destroying other groups and establish a theory of being the fastest on public roads.

The street racers were originally supposed to be a friendly hobby group like Speed Stars…

It’s bad that the so-called “serious players” self-proclaiming as Speed Stars are actually just a playful group, even though my older brother is being teased for being a loser.

When I watched the year-end live broadcast, I felt the times as the early episodes had skits in the next episode previews.

“I watched anime and bought a car!” might sound absurd if I just say that.

If it’s 86, you can still buy a decent used one for a reasonable price, so it’s a good one that you can impulsively buy…

Doon Misuit

That’s Fumihiro, isn’t it?

I like the episode where Itsuki gets revenge with Hachigo.

You’d fall for Takumi with something like that, Itsuki.

Right now, it’s not just the price, but whether there’s a proper physical item that has become more important.

I like Jo-chan.

Back in the 4th season, the next episode previews had almost disappeared from late-night anime…

I wanted to watch it for various reasons, but there are only up to episode 5 on Amazon Prime.

Wow, even just this range is super interesting…

The depiction of handle manipulation and braking during the battle in the first season is the coolest.

I’ll fix this Hachiroku.

86-239

The final episode concludes with the best original anime.

The voice actors are a really good choice.

If I had a friend like that, I would be discouraged.

I like the character design in the first season, but I prefer the car CG in the movie version, Third Stage.

It’s nice how the flamboyant movements blend in with the surrounding background.

As expected from saying they don’t choose based on singing ability, the initial version of Move really has poor vocals…

Somehow, Ituki is really a great emotional support for Takumi, so it’s a good friendship.

Itsuki absolutely believes in Takumi, no matter what kind of battle it is.

I don’t really know how a car moves during an intense chase, but I thought the behavior was amazing.

Ultimately, it seems that I’ve gotten married and have a daughter, which is the most important thing.

During the Initial D period, Itsuki had such bad luck with women that it’s almost heart-wrenching to watch.

Looking back now, the last battle was like a lawless battle between those who had been driving since middle school and those who had been driving since upper elementary school.

The new movie version isn’t bad, but the anime version was just too good.

It seems that the speed suddenly increased, perhaps from around the Impact Blue battle.

At the time of the first match against Mako-chan, Takumi was thinking, “I might lose this…”

The atmosphere of the rural night air in Season 1 is nice.

The battles in the second part are great, but It’suki’s tale of heartbreak is the best…

It’s good that young people are getting passionate about underground illegal battles that bring neither money nor honor.

When I watch videos of professionals attacking the mountain passes on YouTube and such, they are seriously fast.

It’s not good that even the people around Shinji-kun are a little taken aback.

Despite having grown a clean public road race into a big venture, the commentators we called in acted freely, leaving Masahiro’s stomach in ruins.

I love the lines drawn in mid-air in the 3rd movie version.

I wanted to see it in the theater.

Move, who continued to be involved with Initial D from formation to disbandment.

I see someone who is aimlessly wandering around, buying their hobby car with the money they saved from their part-time job.

It feels like a life-sized young person who would go, “Wow!!”

Watching it was too much of a hassle, like with Animax.

I can’t create this kind of structure now, but I love the moment when the retractable headlights of the Hachiroku open.

An anime that is clearly stimulating the brain from all angles.

Retractable mechanisms are not good in terms of air resistance, they increase the number of parts, they are prone to failure, and they are dangerous in case of an accident, so there is nothing good about them, yet they make you want to fidget with them.

Probably half of the people working in the car industry now have their brains fried by Initial D or Wangan.

I wanted to see Bunta’s full power.

In a situation like the mountains, that level of resistance might be negligible.

Whether it’s an 86 or an FD, having to raise the pop-up headlights when driving at night seems like a subtle handicap.

I think it’s thanks to the anime that I’ve come to be loved this much.

The story-wise, Kenta’s match is somewhat insignificant, but the production of Night of Fire is one of the coolest in the series.

I’ve watched it multiple times, but since there’s no battle in the part with the sugar baby, I skip it.

The dialogue at the ramen shop is kind of funny and makes me laugh.

I think it was a nice decision to change the order of the Ryosuke and Jojima battles and made them the final bosses of each season.

When the previous thread was up, there were comments saying that Kenta was in an insignificant position compared to the popularity of Night of Fire, and it was no good.

I forget that it’s Norisuke’s voice because Wataru’s role fits so perfectly.

Kenta’s lines are so cool that he fits too well as the role of the villain.

THE TOP sounds too cool no matter when you listen to it.

I wonder what Nakazato is doing as a midfielder.

I wonder if they got married to Shingo.

The local special that breaks the rules is seriously dangerous.

Stop acting like an idiot!

Here, there is no overtaking or anything like that!!

I believe the best quote is Keisuke’s: “If you love driving cars, that’s more than enough to be a street racer.”

Déjà vu!!

The fourth old man duo was good.

It’s really cool when two R34s turn at the same time.
