| initial d is getting annoying, they put in too much hype before the battle formula like DBZ which is really annoying and is a waste of download for me. im onli downloading just to see takumi use the wrx and see how he goes. |

| Well, it looks like episode 19 is out now (pretty fast) It's pretty good, but I can't help but wish they'd have done more to advance the story. Don't get me wrong, I feel they have made improvements since stage 1, but it seems like the relationships between the charecters haven't advanced. It seems like something more dramatic than, "oh he's fast" should happen. |

| Well if you're looking for any character developement then you're looking in the wrong place. The characters are not that well drawn and the personalities themselves arent that great either. But the racing is awsome. You just have to admire that kind of racing even if its exagerated. If you've ever driven a car you'd know how hard racing really is. I dont like how they release 2 eps every 2 months its been going on for too long. Episodes are too short and not enough is being done. I can pretty much tell what im gonna see and what their gonna wait till next episode so i dont get TOO dissappointed when it ends. blah. |

this is not an anime about relationships, (though there are a few pasing through it) its an anime about racing ^____^
is it me or are they trying to strech out the battles more and more now? _________________ [img:387:120:36cb7a5440]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/idjota/BL.jpg[/img:36cb7a5440] |

I disagree, but I don't want to get into a flame war.
edit: perhaps I didn't make it clear. When I said relationships I meant: " A particular type of connection existing between people related to or having dealings with each other". This is as opposed to: " A romantic or sexual involvement." Thanks answers.com |

doubtful; why?
he legally owns the trueno, after his father hands him the papers for the car. bunta's car is now officially the WRX, but he wants takumi to drive it for deliveries so that he can experience what an AWD (all-wheel drive) is like and why it's different than an FR (front-rear wheel drive), which is the trueno

well there are a bunch of scenes where hes still talking with his friends from previous seasons, plus therere is nothing else in the guys head beside racing, how would you make a relationship between racers better? hes learning from them, respects them, and probably can win against them. as far as relationships (non romantic) they are good enough, id be happier though if they had more racing though
and question about racing with the impreza, he can't do that, the tureno is part of the project d, he can't change it, unless it breaks down and he has no other choice _________________ [img:387:120:36cb7a5440]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/idjota/BL.jpg[/img:36cb7a5440] |

| he'll probly race in the impreza, but it wont be for a while. That being said, I'm kinda sad that they used 2 eps to show only half a race. |

I know that many wanted to see more action in initial d, but the anime summarizes the manga; the plot is already defined.  |

And it's completely impossible to change what they put in the series? Let's take a look at a few of the "minor" changes that have been made, shall we?
Saori in 1st Stage is only in the anime and not manga.
Natsuki in the Gas Station is only in the manga but she works in the Mickey D's in the anime.
Team Emperor in Myogi during the rain race
the girl Shiraishi (volumes 1 & 14-17) who is Papa's daughter
the Atsorou Skyline (volume 18 )
the Smiley Integra (volume 20)
Tsukamoto and his 180SX (volume 9-1 0)
Tsubame in (volumes 4 and 8 )
*Someone else made that list, and I don't know who. If that person is reading this, you have my apologies but I don't remember your name. |
