INITIAL D - FIRST Race Ep4-Ep5 - Keisuke Takahashi vs Takumi Fujiwara - Running in the 90s - SUB

Obviously I do not own any of the presented content.
I couldnt find a version where the first race was combined, so I edited them together and made one small edit when he does the gutter turn, instead of just the heartbeat sound I put Running in the 90's again. Enjoy yall.

[@lugialover09]

Remember: Takumi was BORED doing this!

[@ianwest1624]

Exactly lol

[@KaleunMaender77]

Takumi was only doing this because he promised a girl he'd go to the beach with her. Bored or not, he just did this for some chick (who eventually turned out to be a big sleaze).

[@lugialover09]

@KaleunMaender77 They reconciled in Third Stage though, didn't they?

[@KaleunMaender77]

@@lugialover09 I got the impression that Takumi didn't really care much for Natsuki despite their reconciliation. Throughout Fourth Stage, only once does he think about her, and even then, it seemed to have been a case of momentary melancholy. But at this early stage of the whole show, he wasn't even really all too keen on doing battles, because the car for him had become associated with driving uphill for the deliveries and then fooling around on the downhill... Driving, in his mind, must have been such a stupidly inane thing to do, nevermind that he did it all before first light, and nevermind that he was illegally driving without a licence 😂🤣 He only did this battle because he ended up wanting to impress a girl and his dad gave him a prerequisite for going on that journey to the beach - a prerequisite, mind, that Bunta put onto Takumi because the local hoons needed their local pride to be saved. Otherwise, he wouldn't have cared.

[@lugialover09]

@@KaleunMaender77 In fairness, I stopped after Third Stage, so I don't know what happened after.

[@zeronos2844]

What I liked in this scene too is that Bunta just considers this level of racing as an equivalent of a schoolyard brawl.

[@jcplays5831]

Yep. This is how the anime actually looks. And it’s the most goddamn impressive animation in all of anime. This was made in the 90s back when CGI was barely even known. This whole first season is held together by tape and glue, and it still shocks me how good it looks for it’s time.

[@user-cy6xl3vd3f]

It doesn't look horrible...wouldn't say it's most impressive either. There had been plenty of CGI in the late 90s already

There’s not one moment in MF ghost that keeps you on edge like this episode. It’s so raw and natural with the crowd cheering through each corner, shift knob and pedal footwork audio and you can literally hear the wind pressing off the car as it speeds through.
