Initial D" is an anime based on the popular manga (author: Shuichi Shigeno), which was serialized in Weekly Young Magazine from 1995 to 2013 and has sold 48.6 million copies in its 48 volumes. The main character, who has the mark of a "young leaf," drives his father's old Hachi Roku (AE86 Sprinter Treno), which is owned by his father who runs a tofu shop, and engages in heated public road battles with other drivers from all over with his amazing drifting skills... The story is told in four TV series from 1998 to 2012, plus one movie version and several OVAs. The series was a huge hit from 1998 to 2012, with four TV series, one theater version, and several OVAs produced. The new film version is produced by Sanzigen and Raidenfilm, which are known for their CG production techniques, and all the sounds of the cars in the film are reproduced by professional racing drivers. In addition, the cast has been completely renewed, and the film depicts the battle between the "Rotary Takahashi Brothers" (older brother Ryosuke: FC3S RX-7, younger brother Keisuke: FD3S RX-7), who claim to be the fastest in the Gunma area, and the main character Takumi Fujiwara, in a three-part series.

Drive with respect to traffic rules!

Sasamaru (Tochigi): I got drunk because I felt so much. I really hope that the next installment will be set in Tochigi Prefecture, and that the Sosamaru will make an appearance. I want to battle on the Sosomaru!

It was very cool and made me love this work. As a girl, Natsuki is also very cute and I definitely want to learn from her. I am looking forward to seeing your future works!

Tsurugon (Saitama, Japan): Amazing power! The sense of speed was amazing! It was as if the car was really running. I wish I could be a good driver like that! Tsurugashima is a very convenient place to drive, with the Ken-O Expressway and the Kan-Etsu Expressway running through it, so I hope everyone will visit.

Unari-kun (Chiba Prefecture): This is Unari-kun, Narita's blue water boy. The movie was very interesting!I'll have to practice drifting on the Kassoro when I get back to Narita. I'll have to practice drifting in Kassoro when I get back to Narita.
