Art

THe car look real in intial d.. the drawing is nice...and is getting better every newer version
the characters look cool especially takumi...he look quite dump but he is dangerouse driver...
The main theme for this anime is mostly for car lovers....the car look the best in show if you ask me...especiallu Rx-7...it look so real!!!!
During the race...the produres made it so real and you can feel it life your in the car.

Sound

ENgines of the car is smilar with the one in real life...
YOu can really spot the diffrecne in the show...THe enigne sound between the Rx-7 and skyline GTR 32 you can really feel it in the show...

during the battle scene between the soback ground music makesyou really nervous...
the break, gas, exhaust, and the friction between teh wheel and the gound is perfectly well done...

The ost is is so good that u will repeat it more than twice before you see the show....

    Hmmmm...I think you have absolutely underestimated your score with the sound. I know that you took music into account as well but when Initial D was being made and recorded, they actually did use real engine sounds as opposed to the dubbed english dvd version.

    You should ummm...fix up your english because I think that your review frankly isn't too good at all, which is a shame because I like Initial D

    Initial D is the BEST anime for me because it's really cool!
    [anime + brand CARS + REAL japanese MOUNTAINS]
    it's really cool if you really interested in this anime..
    There's a series - Initial D 1st to 3rd Stage it's an animation with 3rd graphics
    and a movie too [Initial D 3rd Stage the movie] high quality graphics.
    The latest is Initial D Stage it's has a improve animation.. imagine the car, 3D + CARTOON.just watch and see..
    And the best of all is the arcade game..
    Initial D Arcade Stage Ver.1,Ver.2 and Ver.3.. [Try it]
    and there's lot of soundtracks in initial d...
    Initial D is Recommended for Mountain Race fans and Japanese Car fans!!!
    Support this anime!

    i love the story, the car, and the sound(the engine , the eurobeat). also it's great game they have for arcade or for console(ps1/ps2). and for the anime, i can see the development of it, i mean from the stage 1 till 4, there are some different they did, for example as starting from the movie(if i'm not mistake)they try to combine the 3d element into 2d element, which is suits well for this anime. it's a must for car lover, drift on!

    It's a fun series.

    if you like racing and music then this is the anime for you. other than that the anime didn't hold any interest for me. people are entitled to their own liking of a review and giving the scores they desire, that is what makes reviews different from another :)

    This probably could use some more details to characters, cars and why you would have rated it so high. I probably would have never listed it as such, but the cars were good however.
