| Actually what I thought of as much more annoying in this episode is, that nearly half the episode was just Ryosuke talking to that other guy giving tons of explanations while no one even moved. It was just 2 guys talking, then you have two shots of the racing cars and then minutes of talking again. Sorry, but this is so boring. :( I don't have anything against the explanations in general, but there was not enough action. |

| meh without the talks then that race is boring though so its a good one too |
| The OST was pretty good this episode. Not finding the races to be as tense as they were in the previous stages though : / |
 |
| Solid episode! Looking forward for the net race! |
 |
| The races were cool but the parts with Ryosuke were really annoying. This is the first time i skip a part of an episode in Initial D. |
| re-watching whole franchise. Was wondering why this season I scored much lower than others, remember now. Races are dull and short for the most part in this season .. and a bit too much talking and too little actual racing part. |
 |
| Gah! Another cliffhanger race! |
  |
| So Bunta's former rival wasn't only petty enough to call him to say that his son was going to lose, but he was also condescending enough to tell him how he should guide his son, okay. On top of that, he even answered his mobile while still on the phone because he wanted to brag about the victory of his son, "too bad" he lost though. lol And so Keisuke has been racing every day just like Takumi for a while now, but with a training regime, nice. But all of those side commentaries are becoming too excessive, they drag down the race, and it's just boring. |
 |
| This episode felt hollow. Most of it was Ryousuke explaining stuff about Takumi's and Keisuke's technique. I like those explanations, but it was way too long if you ask me. I wish that battles were that long in this season. :( |
| I still don't like the teleportation I mean Fujiwara Zone ... :/ And please ACGT, stop letting Ryosuke talk for 90% of the episode and focus on the damn race xD |
 |
| I am curious as to who the Grimm Reaper is..... |
 |
| takumi smoked that pro again and keisuke is holding his own as well. music was fire but the only problem i had was ryosuke talking so much, i get it but it was killing the momentum of the race. |
 |
| Not much to say but honestly the magic starts happening when Ryousuke starts talking and the action starts when Takumi or Keisuke honestly starts driving. |
