Initial D

by Shuichi Shigeno

Celica vs. Eight Six While the Fujiwara Tofu Trueno emerges victorious over Kai and his MR2, Natalie has only one thing on her mind—getting Tak back. She knows that Tak feels betrayed, so she tries her best to encourage him to warm up to her again. When Miki attempts to rekindle things with Natalie, Tak steps up to protect her dignity. But all's fair in love and racing, and of course, Miki won't go down without a battle: Toyota Celica vs. the Toyota Trueno. Whoever comes out on top will get the girl!

Less racing and more Natalie trying to get with Tak and panty shots. It was predictable and desperate. She got in his way every step, getting a job with them so he could watch her get chatted up with every old guy that got gas and then gate crashed his home. I'm waiting for the blow up with the glasses girl. Ends with an ex boyfriend cliffy. Don't really want to read the next one.

This volume was fun. Dynamic, a lot of romantic drama and some fun winter driving! Got a lil too manga-fied with the suggestive elements but otherwise was true to initial D form!

Garbage volume, the worst of the series so far. The way the older men get all creepy towards Natalie, Natalie being attracted to Tak’s dad even though the fact she liked older people was the reason Tak left her. The potential rape stuff too? Why???

This is one of my favorite anime’s, story could definitely use a lot of help but the racing’s really exciting and love some of the main characters 😻👍🏎
