I’m starting to get why I don’t review series that last beyond 26 episodes (I watched them, mind you, but takes a lot of time to review) and as much as the first 2 editions of Initial D were pretty good and the third stage movie was…..okay to say the least but I starting to think like in any of the Dragon Ball series, the story and the races do tend to drag (no pun intended) as they go along.



This series focuses on the exploits of the new team founded by Ryosuke, Project.D, which is composed of Ryosuke (leader and strategist), downhill ...

Initial D Forth Stage marks a new low of the series with bad and random characters as well as uninteresting, dull and repetitive races.

I might be the only one when I say that but when looking back at the first three seasons I always felt like that the mountain passes and races had some sort of identity, something that made them special, unique and therefore entertaining to watch.

You surely remember Akina with it's 5 consecutive hairpins or Usui Pass with Takumi's extreme endurance race againt the Sil-Eighty Duo or the AE86 vs AE86 race on that very old and horrendously maintained pass. However here, I ...

It's weird, I'd have thought a season focused mostly on racing would have been an improvement on the series, but I feel like this handled poorly. First off is the pacing, which has sped up way too fast. Minimal time is spent developing any Project D's competitor, and most of them fall into the mindset of dismissing Takumi's 86 as some junker. There's also the races themselves, which feel as downgrade overall. It's expected at this point that Takumi is going to win his races, which can work as long as races interesting, but they're not. As mentioned before, most of his opponents grossly underestimate ...

IMO This anime had great potential, but imo it needs a graphics / art overhaul. Comparing this anime to some of the old animes like DBZ or Naruto which continued to improve their art overtime, you can see it. Whereas Initial D's art becomes stale as I felt the artist got lazy and decided not to improve on the overall graphic quality of the manga / anime. The original is a good standard to set, but comparing it to today's anime / art, it's just not appealing and won't cut it.

Story Telling: 7/10

The story telling is amazing. The plot pace moves along well when it ...
