>The series will take place in the 2020s, when self-driving cars are ubiquitous in Japan. The series will feature a genius driver who goes back to Japan after graduating top of his class at a racing school in England.

Ready for FUTURISTIC DORIFTU?

Deja vu

So we're running in the 20's already?

RUNNING IN THE 20s

The problem I foresee with the realism of the setting is that Japan seems like the place where they outlaw manual mode driving on public roads in order to protect the greater good. It also seems like the place where the vehicles would have GPS enabled mode selection so that you cannot enable manual mode depending on where you are and how fast you're going.

New gtrs cant drift, also dont you dare link me some bullshit HKS one.

>In b4 it is Air Gear with Cars instead of Rollerblades

Lmao I give zero fucks and will slurp up anything this guy gives me. I fucking love Initial D.

>not a twingo

They wouldn't need to do that because people actually know how to drive in Japan, but in America it should be a different story.

>rebel against self-driven vehicles drives a GT-R
Seems a little backwards since the R35 GT-R pretty much started the "supercars that do everything for you" trend. Something more analogue like an LS-swapped Miata would be better.

Looks like eurobeat's back on the menu boys!

> The series will feature a genius driver who goes back to Japan after graduating top of his class at a racing school in England
no t-tofu ?

It will have Teslas?

I want to see some Mad Max tier contraptions that are pieced together in order to evade whatever Skynet driving network they're in opposition to.

>top of his class at a racing school

At least we won't have to suffer through some shokugeki kind of school-battle-driving shonen plot if it's already done

It's 2020 dude not 2120.

So is our hero going to go up against supercars instead of street cars? Makes sense, since Initial D pretty much covered the range of japanese street cars from mid 80's to early 00's, and "cheap street cars" aren't really a thing nowadays with the huge pricetags on fast cars.
If that's the case, I'd love to see the the mangaka go all-in and include supercars from makers all over the world - Mclaren, Mercedes-AMG, etc. Shit, I'll even take muscle cars like the Dodge Demon.

>R35
Does that mean we won't get those cool heel-and-toes in the anime?

i hope Takumi returns for a cameo, and it shows he became just like his old man

Did he stick with the golf gf or was there one after that?

>old man
he would be in his 30s

Isn't that the plot to eX-Driver
>the only people with manually controlled cars are criminals or extremely skilled drivers licensed by the gubbament

guessing his girl's highschool baseball story bombed hard then - expect tons of fujo yaoishit from his next series

It ran for 2 years. That's not really bombing.

What does that mean?
