I'm sure I'll watch this show out of sheer obligation, but I'd rather have a good, completely new car story instead of an adaptation of a manga nobody seems to like very much.
MF Ghost hits the same beats as Initial D with the whole under-powered car beating out superior cars, but I found that--as much as I love Initial D--the concept did get stale after awhile, and the interesting parts became the subplots, like the Ryosuke one in Fifth Stage. Even aside from a tired concept, the premise of Initial D seems more compelling than MF Ghost. The illegal street racing seems more interesting than sanctioned rally events. |

^^this^^ I loved the characters in the original story. The premise of a Corolla kicking everyone's ass got a bit old. I'll still follow this one because...

First episode out! Decent intro to the new story.
Of course the episode ends right when the first race begins. Can't binge like I did with initial d. Lots of fan service right from the get-go too. Won't say any so people can notice it themselves :P

Here I am, only having watched up to Stage 3. Plus the 3 movies which are basically an abridged version of Stage 1 and 2.
Anyways, anyone know where and how I can get all Stages in DVD?

I've gotten a couple dvds before but usually they only have like four episodes or something dumb like that. Not sure why.

YesAsia sell 2 Blu-ray Discs… bu it’s only in Japanese. Other than eBay knockoff set, don’t think Crunchyroll have made a complete box set, other than sell em each stage set.

They should had done a prequel. Ryosuke at peak while being "the white comet" and Bunta driving reckless.

They race against similar cars/people, even relatives (like the one guy and his father). Same car. They even have similar friends. Gas station manager is Bunta's Itsuki. The shop mechanic who helps replace the engine could be like an Iketani or maybe an amalgam of Iketani and like Fumihiro or the other tech in Project D. Ryosuke could've been cool though. Racing on the street, gymkhana since they say he participated in that, etc. Good mix of street and some official track days.
