Why isn't there more racing anime? Initial D seems to be the only good one, Wangan a shit

Why isn't there more racing anime? Initial D seems to be the only good one, Wangan a shit

It's not like it isn't popular, Initial D is culturally very popular in Japan.

>Why isn't there more racing anime?
Because to most animators, the cars are moving too fast to be caught on film.

Because CGI are expensive as shit and not all Racing manga are popular like Initial D.

Because there is no point in competing against Takumi.

Miatas are kawaii

it took a nosedive since 4th Stage

Shit's gay as fuck though.

That stupid smile.

MIATA ON THE FIRST LANE

Post god tier eurobeat
i'll start us off

...

just noticed the 9gag watermark

fucking meme thieves, that image was made by an aut/o/bot

Probably the licensing issues unless you want original cars which probably doesn't look as good and takes a while to design.

Best OST.

Seven handdrawn years

just threw on some of the OST.

>no gay sex with hats on
wew lad.

It would be more popular if it was moeshit

desu it'd be easier to list the non-godtier eurobeat, but I'll bite.

Cars aren't as popular with young people today because now they're obsessed with social networking and being narcissistic estrogenites.

Initial D was popular in the 90s and remained popular because it was stacking on top of what it had already built years and years ago. Had 1st Stage been produced in the 2010s it would have likely flopped.

MULTI-TRACK DRIFTING

Not even gonna front, that's a pretty great clip senpai.

I want that Type R.

The bottom left looks like it's wheels are about to break.

...

Is it true that stage 2 doesn't have the same charm as stage 1? I just finished 1 so I'm curious.

I want a days of thunder anime with cute girls
Or
A story based around an amateur rally driver making his way to the pros

DANCE AROUND THE WORLD
EEEVERYBODY
DANCE AROUND THE WORLD

More shows need godly OSTs like Initial D did.

Because the newer seasons of Initial D aren't even good

youtube.com/watch?v=_hiSN0omvjU
T A K U M I

For some reason people in Japan are incapable of drawing cars and must rely on CGI.

NO ONE
SLEEP IN
TOKYO

Stage 2 is still good, the art style just got shat on is all.

>have this open with Deja Vu in the background
>revving intensifies

/wsg/ & /gif/ is where all the eurobeat drifting threads are

Lets do this boys
youtube.com/watch?v=7-jt5EYHZ5U

Initial D has one of the best OST of all anime

must mega mix for every initial d fan
youtube.com/watch?v=6Orx5JvksOk

I know you like that picture and all but Eurobeat belongs in the "That Guy" level at best.

...

No one likes drifting anymore. ;_;

...

Not an anime, but this "G" manga is pretty good so far.

Ah fuck, I wanted to save that too!

...

bumping

And then they met at a parking lot for an "exhaust inspection"

Just in case you actually wanted racing anime:
speed racer: mach a go go
redline
wangan midnight
cyber formula
ride back
immortal grand prix
bakuon!
goddamn
circuit angel
master of torque

...

JUST BEAT
COMMUNICATION

Can't lie, I was a little disappointed that the video didn't end with him going off a cliff.

This image would be significantly better if it had a Fiat Multipla on it.

lol CGI cars are literally the cheapest shit you could make in an animation

the movie wasn't all that bad ... for its budget

Don't bully the Miata!

I know taste is subjective, but i still don't understand how some people buy it cause they think it looks nice. Drift pig/track whore? fine. But for looks? yeah, nah..

Wangan Midnight has the better arcade games though.

>Speed Racer: Mach a Go Go
Old as dirt and complete shit.

>Redline
Overrated as fuck desu sempai.

>Wangan Midnight
Shit.

>Cyber Formula
WAAAAY too /m/. Also lol Fukuda & Morosawa.

>Ride Back
Shit.

>Immortal Grand Prix
Too /m/. Also shit.

>Bakuon!
Literally the cancer that's killing anime.

>Goddamn
Shit.

>Circuit Angel
Dogshit.

>Master of Torque
Gay as fuck desu senpai.

Japan has shit taste and the otaku companies pander to don't give two shits about cars.

Indeed. It's only with Stage 8 that Initial D games are kind of fun again.

>BRZ
>no hachiroku badge
Why even live?

>Just cruising on the straights, really chill
>Sharp turn ahead
>Panic.png

>Wangan a shit
you're a shit kid

...

I dropped Initial D after 3rd stage, but now I am picking it the fuck back up. This is orgasmic.

It's still good after 3rd stage but it has a noticeable decline in quality.

>This entire post

You're in desparate need of a taste injection.

And Capeta ?

K

FOREVER
TOGETHER

FOREVER LOVE AND FUN
UNTIL THE MORNING SUN

>post yfw this song

Not that guy but Capeta is great and has a top MILF waifu too. Just wish there was more of it, it felt like it was just getting started and then it ended.

RUNNING

When I die, I'll die by eurobeat.

Biggest problem was that they ran out of material to adapt.

Nothing would be as good without Eurobeat or some similarly amazing soundtrack.

You just reminded me that I watched speed racer on TV dubbed when I was a kid. It was pretty fun but if I watched it now it'd be pretty shit I'd think.

Would you use your waifu as livery for your drift car?

Plenty people still like drifting.

over rev, anyone?

Because they're shit cars and don't live up to the old 86 Trueno

Arabs do
i.4cdn.org/wsg/1465618711165.webm

I'd love to see an anime where the MC drives an old AW11 against modern tuner cars

and he uses snap oversteer to an advantage somehow

86's aren't worth buying anymore though unless you're a rich collector because tofu tax and they're outdated

We sorely need a true succesor

The new 86/FRS/BRZ is too crippled by emissions to be as iconic in 20 years as the original 86 is today. It's too bad, really

because they know they cant make something as good as initial D so no one tries.
