You are right! Very good choice for anime adaptation! There are not so decent works in such genre execpt Initial D, Speedy Racer, Capeta.

 they could have gone for some generic modern jrock or jpop but decided to get some proper OST even if its not trending. Thats so satisfying

Last time they used jrock etc, a large amount of people wouldn't watch the Legend series because it wasn't Eurobeat, like a child that won't eat it's vegetables

[font="\"Segoe UI\", \"San Francisco\", Ubuntu, \"Fira Sans\", Roboto, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"]Was it definitely drawn by the same person as D? The characters are drawn too well.[/font]

I watched all of the Inital D anime back in June/July of 2021. So this will be my first new series.

Hooray, Eurobeat is back! That was my biggest complaint about the Inital D movies - which just used regular guitar OST.
