So it's essentially a circular narrative. Speed Racer is assigned by Interpol to track down a mysterious, maniacal racecar driver who's been going on a killing spree. Speed takes his usual tough on crime approach; hitting the streets and embedding himself in major syndicates. Meanwhile, his father's company is buckling under the pressure to build ever faster cars, and Speed's recent activities aren't helping the situation. The company eventually fails, and Speed, strung out from chronic stress, goes totally over the edge. Only then does he realize that the madman he had been looking for so desperately, was himself.

This is a beautiful summary of events 🥲

[@DSan-kl2yc]

It's exactly what'd you'd think, a crime/spy thriller.

[@keiichimooozon6733]

This is Japanese animation,around 40~50years ago. Only lunchbox is Japanese food,rice balls.

[@YakkoWarnerTower]

I didn't know Speed Racer was even a thing till the internet lol. Because I don't remember any channels like Nickelodeon, or CN showing reruns of Speed Racer back in the 90's or probably 00s here in the USA.

[@keiichimooozon6733]

Speed Racer, Japanese original title is Mash GOGOGO. Around 40-50 years ago it was published. Maybe the right of using is complicated.

[@Modakune]

Nick aired the 90s remake of it back in the late 90s, and nick and nicktoons aired the spin off series in the 2000s. Aside from like Comcast video on demand and streaming sites later on, the only other channels that aired the 60's Speed Racer anime in the 2000s was TV Land and Cartoon Network during their Adult Swim time around 4 or 5am (they also aired Betty boop and the 60's Astro boy around that time). Oh yeah, and Crunchyroll used to have it too.

[@ShahroozSmith]

He not only wanted to break the speed record... but he really wanted a seven layer chocolate cake. Also, apparently 60s-70s "Ah-quaman" is Speed Racer's greatest weakness.

I can't imagine the amount of hours you put into this. It may be your best work yet.

I've got the entire original show as a DVD set in a Mach 5 tin and I love this. This is basically your regular speed racer episode. It's so well done, absolutely incredible.

[@AdventuresOfSly]

Thank you man! Glad you can enjoy

[@susanfit47]

When MTV started airing Speed Racer late at nights around 1992 or so, it was an unexpercted hit... and then suddenly, other channels started airing it it, and then there was a SNES video game, VHS tapes, action figures and toys, a reboot series... and for this cartoon show that had been almost entirely off the air since 1968 and hasn't even been in reruns in years!

[@sillyman2013]

I love how the title just sounds like how they say the next episode of speed racer thing, speed said in an excited voice then racer just lowercase.

[@TheRealNormanBates]

3:00 is Speed freaking out so much at Aquaman because Speed has become hydrophobic? 7:35 good GOD. Those "further proof Speed Racer is a sociopath" videos have nothing on _"Gotcha, BITCH!"_

What a truly terrible thing for Speed Racer’s dad to do, forcing his son to watch the Aqua Man show.

[@jim2lane]

Speed Racer has gotten a bit of a bad rap through the years, but in the same way that Johnny Quest has. It was not originally intended as a children's cartoon. Like Johnny Quest, it was created for adults, but with Speed Racer it was meant for the adult Japanese market in the 1960's. But it ended up being shown to American children in the early 1970's which meant it often didn't translate very well.

[@paulnicholson5997]

Is that why they keep showing a big pile of coke?

[@jim2lane]

That plot twist at the end was more insane than the plot twist at the end of the original Halloween in 1978 starring Donald Pleasence (who played Blofeld in You Only Live Twice) and Jamie Lee Curtis (in her film debut).

thank you, man! I'm still happy with how well the twist was executed. And for you to put me in the same breath as the Halloween ending is crazy!
