Initial D Legend

The Initial D Legend movie trilogy is a condensed adaptation of the original manga by Shuichi Shigeno that strips out much of the background and focuses on Takumi Fujiwara's rise as a street racer in Gunma Prefecture while delivering tofu for his father's business. The films were first released starting in 2014 in Japan as an annual film series.

Why not just watch the TV series again?

I just finished watching the first season of initial D and while I enjoyed it I don't feel like watching the rest of it at all. Takumi won every race in first stage, almost effortlessly, even the races he had no business winning (the race against the girls was the worst one to me, I thought he was going to learn a lesson about how important being familiar with the track was but the only thing he learned was how invincible he was), so by the end it was getting kinda boring, knowing every outcome. If I watch more does it get better or can I just stop here and live with my own personal ending of "and then, Takumi kept racing and became the best street racer in Japan"?

Effortlessly is the wrong word, he was almost a corner behind whenever something bad happened like EG6 almost wiped out the AE86. Later on he does get defeated once but not in a meaningful outcome you would expect.

There's no real reason to keep on watching unless you really want to see the 86 keep on winning but, It becomes complete trash on the fourth stage, where the Takahashi brothers team up with Takumi. Keisuke being an uphill driver and half the races onward showcase him, It truly does not go uphill from here.

Just throw up some Super Eurobeat there's only going to be 250 volumes and it's ending soon and play some good racing games as an alternative.

I downloaded Densha de D a while ago and haven't touched it yet. Guess I should play that, don't even need to download the eurobeat to go with it either.

The only reason to watch beyond first stage is to witness the glory of the true drift king "no hands".

The show/manga was originally about a street-racing teenager with Asperger's to a battle shonen with cars replacing fights where single races take up chapters. First Stage is the best, Second and Third are fine, everything onward is trash.

First stage is the best without a doubt.

I kinda liked fourth stage but the whole Project D thing dragged on for way too long so it got boring quickly.

Also I hated it that, while he won the first few races because of his superior dorifuto skills, he later only won because of stupid shit happening, like the animal crossing the road or the guy throwing up
