    Initial D

    aka SUGOI DORIFUTO STAGE 5.

    This should start "airing" in about a week. Figured I'd make a separate thread for it since I plan to watch it as it comes out. I'm not the only one anxiously awaiting this, am I?

    Plot Summary for the series in general: High school student Takumi Fujiwara works as a gas station attendant during the day and a delivery boy for his father's tofu shop during late nights. Little does he know that his precise driving skills and his father's modified Toyota Sprinter AE86 Trueno make him the best amateur road racer on Mt. Akina's highway. Because of this, racing groups from all over the Gunma prefecture issue challenges to Takumi to see if he really has what it takes to be a road legend.

    Stage 1: 26 Episodes long. Last race was against Ryousuke Takahashi.
    Stage 2: 12 Episodes long. Last race was against Wataru in his 86 Levin.
    Stage 3: Movie. Races against Piccolo and stuff.
    Stage 4: 24 Episodes long. "Project D" in full swing, last race was against the Purple Shadow. (God Hand vs Takumi; God Foot vs Keisuke)

    Oh god why can I remember all this off the top of my head.

    Looks like we're getting a new love interest for Takumi, but we all know it's not gonna end well because a racer doesn't need a girlfriend. On the other hand, always love it when fakes get called out. Ugly fakes at that too, haha.

    One month in between releases is pure evil. At least I'll be in a lull between finals when episodes 3 and 4 are supposed to come out.

    Also for anyone not sure who to use, sage subs are what I used and I'm happy with my choice.

    So all the episodes have been released for 5th Stage... problem being they didn't have Takumi's final race.

    I'm hoping for a movie, or at least a special to finsih up. I haven't seen anything letting out any details at the moment.

    The anime is pretty much exactly where the manga is up to. Sucks waiting.

    Well I guess I'd rather they wait than put a bunch of filler in there.
