I just finished Initial D the first series (1998). It was pretty good. Two questions though, was Natsuki a prostitute? And should I watch the newer series?

Yes and yes.

the 2nd season explains what happens to her

finish watching it, i started watching the series last week, im watching the 3rd episode of the final stage

4th stage kind of drags on at the end, but the fifth is better

>was Natsuki a prostitute?
Yes.

>And should I watch the newer series?
2nd Stage and 3rd Stage are still excellent, so at least watch those. 4th and 5th (and Final) are considerably worse, but you might still enjoy them.

>was Natsuki a prostitute?
How did you come to that conclusion after watching S1?

>Initial D
>it´s not about her first D

2nd and 3rd aren't quite as hype as the first season, but are still great.
4th, 5th, and Final have their moments, but for the most part it gets hard to care about the races.

Also every season changes the art style for better or worse.

fucking Sup Forumsirgins. dude was her sugar daddy

In the last episode we see her, when it was snowing, the guy is leaving the hotel with her, not heading there.

Think about it.

it's constantly """"implied"""" that she's doing enjokousai.

That episode in stage 2 when he told her to fuck off at the end was great.

>has sex with 40+ year old dude she calls daddy
>he gives her money
>not a prostitute
Hmm

They pull on that later in the series turns out it was her senpai (the cunt dogumi punched) and that he becomes a ragged guy in a shitty 4wd turbo merc

Third stage is the best. I didn't like fifth.

>Natsuki a prostitute?
Not really, it's called Enjokousai.
>And should I watch the newer series?
Absolutely. It stops being excellent after the movie, though.

Really? That's prostitute said with another word.

>Enjokousai
>not prostitution
Come on now.

She was a prostitute but quit after she started dating Takumi, so it's okay.

wait a second, that old dude wasn't actually her father?

Definitely watch 2nd and 3rd Stage.

do they play nights on fire in later seasons during actual races? i waited for this song the entire time and then it played only on the worst race.

Yeah. Read the manga. It shows her half naked in a hotel. That's actually where Takumi saw her before racing the Evo. They switched it to a restaurant in he anime.

Nope, that was the guy he raced in the snow in Third Stage. The sugar dad is another guy.

Yes and no.

Are you for real?

>was Natsuki a prostitute?
Yes. Like an anons said, in the anime it's implied she's going out with her sugar daddy, but in the manga it's explicitly shown she's having sex with him.

The scene where Takumi tells her to fuck off was so satisfying.

Is it ever explained why she got involved with prostitution?

>Is it ever explained why women are sluts?

>Yeah. Read the manga. It shows her half naked in a hotel
