Facts and fiction about “Initial –D”

[sysh]

.. yeah, i've got to say that i enjoy the Initial D soundtrack too. storyline (especially the romance part..if you can say romance) is pretty cheesy. but overall quite a nice show to watch. think alot of young motorheads are able to learn bout these cars from the show.

 

[encikmasen]

im a fan of initial D, becos its one of the manga/anime ive bought/ downloaded (i'm kinda addicted to it actually)..and also im a car enthusiast, so then a manga/anime taht involves car, either street racing, rallying or drifting, really got me hooked up..

but in real life, mahu test power kita turun trek..otr just for fun, no need to endager ur life and others..

btw, initial D is the one who introduced me to drifting

 

[escaflowne]

it is fun to watch and read both anime and manga but yeah...i do admit it kinda poison those young bugger's brain..common scenario

Beng: drifting i know la...very easy only i teror mah..Neh,the leg press the brake and oil together(heel and toe actually),then can drift lorr...
Lian : wah..so teror arr...i wanna try i wanna try~~~~
Bneg :(Fill with the joy/stupidness) nah this corner i drift let you see la...my wira also can drift one leh...(while background is initial D soundtrack)

Bang!!

You dun heel and toe to drift duh.....Just that the anime always show takumi heel and toe and the next scene is the car start to drift...

i like initial d despite all the beng-ness related to it..
hahahaha..

btw, the newspapar article bout the iswara driver..
how did the cops noe wat happened if there were no witnesses?
how did they noe the driver was racing?
previously, another member complained bout another newspaper exagerating bout his accident and even claimed he was racing when he wasnt..

Actually, Initial-D should just let Japanese to make the movie, not taiwan and Hong Kong. As they don't have good director, so the movie is a waste. Soundtrack also is rubbish, no kick at all. First time see got a clever Takumi. Should use title Initial-A or whatever, not Initial-D.

About the newspaper story, first of all I don't where is that place, by using common sense, for a turbo-charged car to cut into 2 piece after a corner, range between 2 piece is 50m, how can this happen? If the driver bring slow and met with this accident sure the car will not cut, even if cut also the range will be nearer. Policeman can come out the statement racing with another car maybe is because the driver is Malay, if Chinese or Indian sure they will say the driver is drunk. But the part they say is an Evo, this is really hard to believe.

i watch initial d for all the technical knowledge only.. seeing tsuchiya as the technical advisor or something i doubt what they say will be too far from the real thing.

actually looking at Ueo drift ae86 is more syok than watch initial d lar.. initial d nice cuz got all the soundtracks.

use to have video of tsuchiya driving through the mountain passes in the 80's. video is digitized from the beta tape, abit blur..
