    Meh, I own too many cars to have good rates anyway.

    Now I wonder if this has anything to do with the Toyota 86. I will cry with joy if an 86/BRZ shows up in an episode...

    (BRZ owner here :-D)

    I'd be surprised if it didn't. Still, You have to wonder if they'll update the cars. I mean, Initial D got A LOT of people into the drifting scene. If Takumi is driving anything other than the AE86 and Keisuke driving the RX-7 FD, there'll be some serious fire and brimstone from Initial D fans.

    I can only hope this results in a resurgence of Super Eurobeat.
  • CramitCramit
    I is supposedly going to continue following the manga. I'm not sure what that will mean as far As competitor cars...but it probably means that the main characters and their cars will stay the same.

    Making a Super Eurobeat mix for night drives in the M Coupe to ready my body.

    I put on Yellow Line, while I was driving the van. Now I have to get new windows, they all exploded when I broke the sound barrier.
  • Victor FrostVictor Frost
    In that van? I believe it.

    It has it's downsides. Try changing eight sparks in an under-seat engine bay, with about a foot of breathing room around the whole thing. Pain in the arse.

    Well, in the end of the original series he was driving a Impreza as well, so I guess it leaves it open to an upgrade perhaps?
  • Victor FrostVictor Frost
    Yeah, but he never raced with it.

    Takumi has to use the 86, or else he will no longer be the apparent underdog.

    A movie called Final Stage is in production that will pick up where Fifth Stage left off and the final issue of the manga will be released in eight days.

    Initial D is ENDING, YOU GUYS.

    True; I'm more surprised than upset, though. It had a good, (very) long run.

    I'm not upset. It's just so weird and rare when series that run for this long actually end.
  • Victor FrostVictor Frost
    True facts. Speaking of, has Inuyasha ended yet?

    According to Wikipedia, it ended in 2008.

    However, Hajime no Ippo will probably continue until the apocalypse. And Ippo still won't have had a rematch with Miyata.

    Old shounen fighting shows don't end, they just fade away.
