Pain peko for him

That’s what makes it good. It explores the minor characters more than the protagonists. Initial D did this to an extent but it always focused on Takumi I love them both, it’s just one of the many ways they’re different

​@@Da_one_tl They are different - yet, they're both based on reality. Wangan Midnight is darker, crueler and more focused on speed, tuning and the people - their tragedies and addictions, whilst Initial D is all about drifting and driving technique (and it has a happier tune). I was shocked how detailed Initial D was when it came to driving skills and influence of the environment and car setup. And I was even more flabbergasted about the unexpected in-depth knowledge that was showcased in Wangan Midnight (I was an engine dyno operator for a big manufacturer not so long ago) - details about boost, spark, power, torque, RPMs and general engine basics are almost too good for an anime. But what really blew me away was the connection to the real life ... Yeah, Devil Z and Blackbird were real, Keiichi Tsuchiya was blueprint and advisor for the Initial D series, but that's not what I mean ... In my opinion the feelings and the shown role models are the best thing about these two animes AND that nothing about them has changed - everyday normal people can still become like Akio or Takumi! Sure, you have to sacrifice pretty much for that lifestyle (How many part time jobs and what little future had Akio left in the end? How many years had Takumi honed is skills and how 'cruel' was the training by his father? How much luck does he had by meeting Ryosuke and winning him as sponsor?), but you still can live your dream as car freak. But be aware: There's no turning back once you've fully entred this world and you'll see most 'influencers' as nothing more than clowns ;-)

And the love of the Wangan of course and it's lessons

Or how everyone just thinks it's a really nice car? 🗿🗿🗿🗿

The fact he tried to sound cool at the end was laughable He had no faith on others and on himself, this guy is a clown

@@hybridAbsol I think you're reading too much into this. Like, WAY too much. He was a nice dude that just wanted to have fun with racing.

Also a cause of the car losing top end is the engine simply veing tuned more for midrange grunt or the turbo not being able to flow enough air and causing a restriction.

@@justsomegarage The restriction in air flow might be the fault of the throttle gap, more than the turbo. But, if the turbo is too small, then it may have the restriction problem at redline revs.

@@maksymilians931 It's an Evo. Their turbos are already massive off the lot.

Yuu Takemiya they even said in the anime that the turbo on that Evo was small!

@@papaannefranku9693 Compared to the real life versions of these cars, a "small" turbo in a $100,000 car is no smaller than an infant human.

they are not bmw driver hahahaha

Gotta keep the attitude of driving

That's the rule of Wangan Racing, even in the real world.

There's an R32 and a FC as "traffic cars too" Don't be sad

It's not underrated. If anything it's highly overrated, because of it's aggresive design.

The 1st gen GTO broke the top speed record at the time from both HKS and Hennessey (yes THAT Hennessey that did Venom and Exorcist Camaro) separately, though idk much about what the 2nd gen has been achieved other than stock GTO MR beat R32 GTR in a 1-mile drag race (sourced from best motoring).

Wangan Midnight is all about passion, as opposed to Initial D which is more about pride. Like sure you still see tuners and drivers be prideful and seek to beat the best of the best, as you can see with BlackBird, but you always see that at the end of their speed contests, they're all friends and like to see each other succeed in their hobby. Which is why Akio ended up helping with Kei's Supra despite building something that can beat the Z, he wants to learn more about tuning and not just being the fastest in Wangan. Initial D on the other hand is more about improving your skills and going head to head with the best of the best touge drivers, and the lesson there is that sometimes skill can only get you so far, as with Bunta's lesson to Takumi with the Impreza. At the end of the day, pride and passion are two sides of the same coin. It's just about which is your priority.

The manga has more buy it

The Wangan Midnight Anime is NOWHERE NEAR as fun to watch as Initial D. Wangan Midnight is better in Manga Form

プロとプライベーターの違いはあっても二人は同じく孤高で、今後の生き方に迷っているんですよね。 そしてそれぞれ答えを見つけ前に進んでいく。 どちらも読後に爽やかな余韻が残るエピソードだと思います。

原作では15年以上の付き合いがある太客を多く抱える老舗で、仲間内では最も成功しているショップとして描かれています。 因みに山本SUPEEDは長らくチューニングからは遠ざかり一般整備でやっていましたが、アキオ達との出会いで業界復帰、 ガッちゃんはVIP系エアロで細々と家族4人を養い、富永SUPEEDはROMセッティング専業化するも借金生活への逆戻りを北見に心配されています。 神谷編で登場するシゲも東京で一旗揚げたものの 泡銭に我を見失い 堕落から全てを失い、大阪に戻って細々と鉄工所を営んでいます。 作中、太田以外で店が順風満帆なのは欧州車系板金屋を阿漕な水増し請求で回す高木くらいでしょうか？

The more seasons Initial D made, the less interesting they were anyway. After Season 3 they got pretty boring because there was a heck of a lot of talking and analyzing the little things and the races lost their excitement factor.

Watch capeta and cyber formula they very good

アニメだとマサキ編飛ばしててR33を事故らせるためのフラグがたってないからかな…

Rikako is too young for him , so NO

And at the same time I respect Eiji for keeping his 3 month promise. According to Maki he had other girlfriends in Osaka so I'm sure Rikako wasn't a big deal to Eiji anyway haha.

Eiji sees Rikako as a little sister , nothing more or else ..... *FBI OPEN UP*

In the original manga, after three months Eiji went back to Osaka and married Ms. Eriko (their step-mother). Not sure if that's too much for Western audience and got ripped.

What!?

Evolution IVs are rubbish

@@hybridAbsol True. I worked part time for a friend who tunes old JDMs. The Evo 4 is frustrating to work on if you're increasing power. The stock engine blows almost too easily. It's like a sports car meant to be driven like a bus.

Its acceleration and top speed is poor too

@@hybridAbsol ...and the reliability is horrendous. Even though we were earning from that car, we pitied the customer who had to send the car back after 4000km

Could be worst if its a Starion GSR or 3000GT, nearly every inch of engine component will try to annoy you

Really?

@@Driieee its theory

自分長男だったのもあって、エイジみたいな兄貴欲しいなと思います

逆に自分はマキのような車好きの弟が欲しいですわw

bcs she does

that's why she say she's feeling something lost after complete Eiji's engine rebuilt.

Rikako is a bro con

weight isnt as important at high speed as much as power and low drag is

You can use the Lancer Evo for that
