Initial D Options

[Random_Stranger]

I am hooked! Thanks to you all who talked about it, I gave it a shot and loving it. Although I am going to admit that I prefer the USA version over the original. I just can't get into that "Euro Beat" stuff, no matter how hard I try. Although I don't mind reading subtitles, I would rather not. Not for this. Anyways, just wanted to see if any of you have any information of them making another stage or if Tokyopop is going to continue making more stages for North America (I should have noted that before, I forgot about Canada), or should I say ENGLISH.

the show or books.

show>books

Show. So when you say making another stage, are we talking stage 5? Or English dub stage 3?

Yeah if the acting was convincing. LOL Reminds me of the earlier games for the sega cd and the infamous resident evil (the first one. Remember Barry? "Heh heh heh, What Was THAT?!")

Drifting is cool though. Just that with the music, I would expect to see a few mullets tossed in there.



Ok nevermind. Watched more....... Love it! Thanks! (Isn't this the movie that was filmed illegally? I heard about this one. Watched part 1 awhile back)


Haven't played Initial D arcade. Right now though, I am working on Tokyo Xtreme Drift Racer 2. Took awhile to get used to, but I like it now. Waiting on D1 Grand Prix to come in the mail (no ps3 yet :-( playing on ps2)

Oh Definitely! Thanks. I'll check that out, that Wangan Midnight. I heard D1GP was the best, that is why I went to order it. I lost the bid on Ebay, but I got it really cheap on Amazon. But um...... Over a week and still haven't got it yet. But I sold something and I am aware that Amazon isn't paying people their money right away and they say it is due to technical errors. I dunno.

Now go rent the live action InitialD. It's awesome.

[Akirad1]

if you like Intial D youll like Wangan Midnight too but its only in jap right now, its made by the same directors and i believe The real drift king is involved with it too couldnt remember how to spell his name so i didnt want to butcher it, lol but check it out too there are only 13 eps ive seen that are subbed so far but i know there are at least 24 eps right now, and you should check the live action out allthough its far from the manga/anime but its a decent movie

[Tigawoods]

live action is only in japan. i just dwnlded the tor's of all the episodes last year.

[Daftboy]

ps.....squash sux

[Tigawoods]

squash hates your face

[Taskbot]

I have an Initial D poster hanging over my bed.
Wangan midnight is all right too, made me absolute OBSESSED with the S30.

[SeverX13]

i hate anime

but...

Initial D is the s**t. its the only "anime" that i watch. ive only seen a few of the live action ones tho

Initial D FTMFW!

[parriehunter]

Initial D is wicked,

sorry to go off topic but wtf is squash? im guessing its not the indoor sport.

[Tigawoods]

[CAMAricer]

[azian_advanced]

i wonder if Takumi will get a GT86 in the show, since the AE86 is pretty much maxed out.

also anyone else play initial d eurobeats in the car?

[Tigawoods]

since its just a continuation I doubt it.

Some of Initial D/ Wangan Midnight songs come on when I am shuffling on my ipod haha

well, I guess me being the Nerd that I am, will find little comfort here... the Japanese Subs are the only way to go, the show is way more serious and interesting, and shows some aspects of the Japanese car culture. rather than watching the ****ty US dubed version, which is saturated in the ****ty parts of that teenage tuner culture here.

the Manga is way amazing (if only for that fact that it dives way further in the series and is still being produced now)

I give Takumi some mad respect for sticking with the AE-86... it's like my Celica and I. the car and I are a team, and will stick together as long as possible.

the Live action movie (which I bought in the US) is Chinese (the Actress is Japanese though) and is a little of character wise. but I still love it.

"that skirt is a weapon of mass distraction" lol awesome scene.

I used to have Geta (Japanese wooden clogs) because of Takumi's dad lol

Hahaha! I tried to find a good pair here in the US, but my brother (who lived in Japan) said he'd get me a real pair, and to this day I still haven't seen them

I'm excited for this... very excited. I've watched it through dubbed, and I've watched it on Netflix a second and third time. I love the series.

there used to be an awesome company in the states that sold some that were like normal flipflops. had a foam cushion for your feet, leather straps and rubber bottoms for the teeth!

I went to buy more and they are gone
