Question Initial D seasons?

I have been picking up the tokyopop initial D DVDs im on battle 5 now. So thats almost half way through the 41 shows (13 DVDs). However I hear people talking about tak getting another car and such but I dont see how they can fit that all into 13 DVDs. I mean im not even up to his motor swap yet. So is there going to be another season coming out from tokyopop? How many episodes are there so far in Japan?

Re: Initial D seasons?

Takumi does not get another car.

There are three seasons so far.

You're watching season 1, which has 26 episodes. The second season is only 13 episodes.
The third season will be 14 episodes, but only four have been released so far.

There are two movies. One takes place during the events of the second season. The other takes place between the second and third seasons.

I only by the Tokyopop manga, so I don't know how far along they are. I'd guess that they haven't finished the second season yet.

Or you can realize that the massive Tokyopop licensing deal was the funding that put Fourth Stage onto Japanese TV screens, and that major American TV networks screwed T-pop into making the alterations they made, and that T-pop charges at a net loss per disc for Initial D (about $5 less than anime industry standard for a 3 episode per disc series).

In otherwords, shut the fuck up tetsuya. You have no idea what you're talking about and if you'd like to stay around here a bit longer I would highly advise against promoting piracy on AF.

There's a difference between pointing people towards a better bargain and promoting theft. Initial D is a licensed series. Ergo, fansubs, scanslations, and any other non-Tokyopop copies save for legitimate Region 2 DVD's out of Japan (which are, by the way, more expensive than U.S. DVD's) are highly illegal.

Fansubbers still trading Initial D fansubs should be locked up, not celebrated.

Re: Initial D seasons?

Its like this... Initial D 1st Stage - 1 - 26 Ep.
2nd Stage - 1 - 13. Then there is 2nd Stage - Extra Stage which is a movie. Which has to do with the sil80 races an emperor team member on usui pass. Then there is 3rd Stage - Another Movie where Tak races Emperior with his new swap. 4th stage where Project D is underway. 4th Stage only has 4 eps.

Re: Initial D seasons?

Well you were right. But fourth stage doesnt only have four episodes. They next episodes probably arent even out yet. It cant be over. They havent had the Project D battles on Tschu against the guys in EVO's. I know for a fact Keisuke loses. Cuz of an oil spill on the track he hits it and loses. But theres alot more stuff to come in Fourth Stage

Re: Initial D seasons?

that guys on crack, who in their right mind would have stage four for initial-d come out at one of its highest times, in terms of popularity, have only four episodes? sure stage three only had 1 episode but that was a movie not a series. stage four has a lot more than four episodes coming out and it'll go on throughout the year. the 5 and 6 episodes are suppose to come out this month i last heard, haven't seen anyone talk about it lately though.

Re: Initial D seasons?

haha yeah I wanna see Keisuke lose to that blond guy in the EVO I wanna know what exactly happens. Yeah and the RX-7 and Integ might be just like the race between the RX-7 and the GTS-T M in the previous episodes. They just might not show the race
