Initial D
| Ryouske states in one of the episodes (i think in stage 3) that the "D." in Project D. stands for something pretty deep. I watched the entire series and never saw an explanation on what it was. Does anyone know what it stands for? |
| I think it stands for Domination... Project Domination. They want to leave track records and beat all the other drivers hence why I think domination but I wouldnt be suprised if it was really Project Drift but I would think that would be very anticlimactic. |
| Taken from the initial D forums: "The last issue of Initial D manga came out and this is it. Initial D has officially ended. We have translated the last chapter to English for every one to enjoy. It is actually a very meaningful chapter that's open-ended, which most people were looking forward to. Open-ended ending means there might be spin-off stories some years later. If you are reading this far, you are probably looking for a quick summary. Here it is: so they are still having the disbanding party. Tomiguchi (the FD mechanic) talked about how he will continue working in the racing field and Matsumoto (86 mechanic) professed that he will do the same. Fumihiro shocked everyone with the news that Keisuke and Takumi has already gotten admission letters from several professional racing teams. Their dreams won't stop here. And... at last the meaning of D is revealed. There is a double layers of meaning here. Yes, the D means Dream. However, that dream is to foster world-class drivers and uncovering them when they are still rough diamonds. Wait, diamonds? Yes, D for Diamond, as in diamond in the rough. Initial D stands for Ryousuke's dream to foster and train drivers that is like a rough diamond. They must be polished before being sent out to the world out there. And at the end, Ryousuke fulfilled his dream, as a promise to Kaori. (Remember, Kaori died before the first episode of Initial D. So if you think about it, the whole story now revolves around Ryousuke, but in a subtle way.) : " |
