Initial D

[Okami]

Anyone ever seen initial D? if so what were your favorite cars.
I am also hoping to sell my 1st gen supra and maby buying a s13 and a sprinter trueno with full drifting setups.

I need to ask someone dumb enough to buy my supra for 65g's first

Initial D is my favorite Anime. That's why I spent some loose change in buying the Toyota Corolla Trueno '83 in Gran Turismo 2. But I think Takumi would have been better off in a Toyota Celica '91.

i've never seen it, but i've heard great things.
can't get a hold of it in the US.

 

[Burnout]

[Terbo]

[Burnout]

[takumi64]

I hear that Initial D will be released in America this year... In English...

 

[Supraman4life]

Initial D is only the coolest racing cartoon and if you aint heard of it yet you need to get kazaa and download one and experiance the thrill for yourself. Although i cant understand a word they say good thing for diolog . My favorite car in the cartoon in ryouske's yellow rx-7

[Burnout]

is it really that good?

 

[Terbo]

If it is, sopmeone send me a CD with the shows on it. T'm not gonna even try to download them. Internet's too slow

 

[Burnout]

56k sucks

 

[takumi64]

I love Initial D... That's why I keep playing GT2... It felt great driving the Corolla Trueno '83 for a while... Until the Celica '91 came along...

Initial D is highly recommended... Even the soundtrack rules!

I wish it was 56K. The damn phone company won't put a real phone line to my house. Try 24K. They won't put hi-Speed in my area either. ROOOOOOOOOOOOOAR!!!

 

[Burnout]

i was wondering what it would be like with a slower modem, just today

 

[Terbo]

you get used to it. You click a link, take a nap, wake up, get a snack, take a whiz, and maybe, juuust maybe, it's loaded. If i ever ger high-speed, i'll need to get a seat belt and air-bags for my computer

That's rough, man.

I still get post traumatic stress disorder tremmors every time I hear a modem :bawling:

 

[takumi64]

I just had my Corolla Trueno upgraded beyond its maximum limit... And it's as fast as hell...

 

[Terbo]

ummm.....wouldn't the level beyond the "maximum limit", BE the "maximum limit"???


(I cut the wire on my modem speaker, no fizz crakle beeeeeeep for me)

Initial D isn't called a cartoon. It'z called anime or if you want, japanese animation, not a cartoon. ^_^ And i have to say that the MR2 G-Limited (the blue one from 3rd Stage, not the pink one from Extra Stage) is my fav.

 

[takumi64]

So far I was only able to see some episodes of the first stage... It's an excellent Anime... That's the one Anime that made me car crazy...

 

[TingBoy]

they had an arcade game for Initial D called Initial D: Arcade Stage. It was pretty fun. They had cars from the anime and manga and also some other cars that weren't in either, but were known to be good driftin cars in Japan. Silvia S14 was my fav. At the end of every race, u would get points that were only useful if u got the "card". The card lets u store cars sorta like a memory card for the game. The points would let you upgrade ur car or cars, making them faster and lighter with like different spoilers and stuff like that

They also had a Playstation game on it too. It wasn't really fun because it was soo damn easy.

Not a cartoon, its an anime

(look at it from an artist POV)

youll see what i mean

 

[TingBoy]

lol that's what i said, just without the artist POV

 

[vicjohn]

I like so much Initial D. (Initial D - Max speed legend of street.)

The story is about yong boy's(Fujihara takumi) down hill racing, drift, rival & freinds.

He drive daddy's old car(AE86) and he beat RX-7, Lancer... etc.

I think Poliphoni Digital(GT developer)'s staff is huge fan of Initial D.


* Cartoon(23 books)

*Scale model (From fujimi)

*Shot from TV series, Movie version.

* Takumi's Totota TRUENO GT-APEX (AE86) call is ha chi ro ku!

* Arcade Game machine.

 

[takumi64]

Hey, nice pics... I can even do those drift techniques in Sega Rally 2...

You got a problem with Speed Racer??

 

[TingBoy]

speed racer is too old of an anime series......at least i think it was an anime series....that's what i've heard..

 

[Terbo]

actually....it was supposed to be sorta a joke, but whatever. If I remember correctly it WAS anime. I think there were two versions also, one was old, the other very old.

 

[askia47]

its sorta of dated really
