This race along with the Ikeda vs Keisuke and Takumi vs the silvia guy were the best made in 5th stage so far.
Now back to the FC, although i have little to no knowledge of engine sounds , is it me or the FC seems to be Supercharged ?

Posted by: Tessou Mar 8 2013, 01:27 PM
Trying to figure out why they're using such a weak soundtrack for these episodes... where's the good stuff? Are they holding it back for the last episode or something?!

So 22 chapters (well almost the end of chapter 602, short by a page or two) for episodes 09 to 10, and the manga is currently at chapter 701 to 702 this week. Pacing of manga suddenly slowing down or just temporary.

Re-cap of how much manga chapters covered in previous episodes including all the manga scenes that weren't animated.

Episode 01 to 02 (40 chapters)
Episode 03 to 04 (40 chapters)
Episode 05 to 06 (50 chapters)
Episode 07 to 08 (30 chapters)
Episode 09 to 10 (22 chapters)

Total of 182 chapters animated since 4th Stage ended at around chapter 420 something.

about 99 to 100 chapters to get caught up to (aside from the weekly releases upcoming)

A little disappointed with the song selection, I was hoping for

Loverboy / Annalise
I'm gonna carry on / Nuage

don't get me wrong, the songs they chose are good (minus A Perfect Hero) but I was hoping for something a little more emotional.

Yes the FC is supercharged. A few episodes ago Ryosuke was standing by the lake when he called Masumoto and asked to quietly supercharge the FC.

Does not bring out the pain, tragedy and despair of the Ryousuke vs Shinigami race

No. Matsumoto made a joke about adding a supercharger to the 86. Ryosuke asked him to make modifications to his FC. He never said anything about adding a supercharger to the FC.

Was Rin Hojo the mentor of Ryousuke or something ?
Because Ryousuke call him Hojo Rin- Senpai.

Sorry but i read the chapters of this race long time ago , so i forgot some events.

I think you're confusing senpai and sensei.
Senpai is an honorific for one higher than another in teachings.
Remember that ryosuke is younger than both rin and kaori.

And it usually means someone who is just in a higher grade than you in school, or has simply been on a team longer. A Senior in high school would be a senpai to a sophomore. On a sports team a guy could have been on the team longer, but be no better than the younger/newer player - but he is still a senpai. They could even be in the same grade, but joined at an earlier time.

And agreed, the S2000 race was among the best, if not THE BEST, regardless of the result. I drive an S2000 and I'm proud that the only car that Takumi would've lost to (other than Bunta's) was the S2k!


Posted by: JKaiba Mar 9 2013, 02:16 PM
probably asked and answered but can anyone google maps locate the PA where Rin and Ryosuke meet?

Posted by: Banken Mar 9 2013, 02:49 PM
Rin was three years ahead of Ryosuke in college.

Since it was only two years ago, it might have been when Ryosuke first entered medical school, but it might have been when he was still an undergraduate. We don't know.

Posted by: j-n-r Mar 9 2013, 03:06 PM
the episodes are intense, the main reason is because the white comet is back, but I dont get the hype, is cool, is awesome, but IMO, is not the best race in 5th stage or in the initial d series so far....

in 5th stage for me until now, the best races are the miata vs trueno (what if the gt wing werent damaged?),

the supra vs rx7 ?(the pride from the supra driver was the mistake..),

mr-s vs trueno (I still dont get why on earth the mr-s lost, is just senseless...)

in the series my favorite is the ek9 spoon vs trueno (the soundtrack was amazing, I wish the race didnt end with that "luck" factor, because the ek9 driver pushed takumi a couple of times, so is like the karma working or something...

the s2k race was awesome, takumi lost here clearly...

this guy, rin, is like the fusion between shingo and nakazato, hairstyle somewhat from shingo and the crashing habit, plus the car model from nakazato (r32 skyline), I wonder if shingeno had a bad experience or a paranormal experience with a r32 skyline in his life, why the skylines are with this dark aura ever, who remember the back on the rocks when nakazato used to be someone important?


the rin vs ryosuke race makes me laugh so many times, sorry guys maybe my mind is sick..


Posted by: Tessou Mar 9 2013, 04:26 PM
Why did the MR-S lose? That's easy. For the same reason that Kai originally lost in his dad's SW20: the series is biased towards the lead character. Takumi can magically gain huge speed advantages and somehow not wreck his tired suspension by jumping the car around Irohazaka, and then somehow wins because of leaves on the road.

Therefore, Kai will spin simply because Shigeno wants him to. Even if the situation doesn't feasibly make it possible. Kai could have the car parked in a garage and Shigeno could make it crash into a ravine. BECAUSE.

Posted by: Tygur Mar 9 2013, 04:48 PM
Why? Because race car magic. He is a downhill shaman and secretly hexes and curses his competition before the races.

Posted by: Nomake Wan Mar 9 2013, 05:03 PM
Yes well in reality he lost because he realized how stupid street racing is and let Takumi win because he knew that eventually it wouldn't matter. He'd still be alive and Takumi would be dead in a ditch somewhere.

So in reality, while Kai lost this battle he's already won the war. Life lessons, guys.

Posted by: _Dee Mar 9 2013, 05:23 PM
well other than the fact that kai and his mr-s lost because takumi is the lead character and he has to win, kai spun because he backed out halfway through the corner and let off the gas (according to his char after with takumi) hence causing the weight transfer and the spin at that speed around the corner. Its not really senseless... lucky for takumi yes, but these things do happen and ive witnessed on cruises how people hesitate midway after trying to follow the lead cars in front and from behind watch them happily kick their tail out by accident due to letting off throttle or trying to brake midway lol.

Have to though none of the races in 5th stage apart from the 350z vs rx7 in the fog was really any good, they were all pretty crappy imo, havent watched 9&10 yet just waiting on subs so well have to see. Half the races either were not in depth enough or ended too quick/suddenly and barely showed the drivers struggle to win..

Takumi would have lost to the driver(God Arm/Hand), not the car(S2K).

Half the races either were not in depth enough or ended too quick/suddenly and barely showed the drivers struggle to win..

And all he had to do was put his foot back on the throttle to regain traction. It's not THAT hard. Seriously, I flog my MR around corners all the time, and all it takes to plant the tires is to give it some gas.

Not exactly rocket science. This series takes midengine characteristics and heavily exaggerates their "weakness" to make for a somewhat more interesting race. The car doesn't spin out unless you're a complete idiot behind the wheel, and add too much throttle when the weight is being shifted (a natural reaction for amateur drivers). Pedal control is very easy to learn and transform into a natural reflex in those situations. Kai being somebody that obviously knows how to chuck an MR2 down a mountain, it's absurd to read that he spun the car completely just by letting off the throttle. Midengine cars do not react that way when the throttle is lifted during cornering. They can become upset if you act like a fool and goose it or slam on the brakes, but simply letting off on the throttle would not make the car lose control.

It's stupid. Shigeno is making up physics, and readers are accepting it as factual. If midengine was so easily dangerous, they wouldn't make road cars with that setup.

But I know what you mean. In general, yeah, Shigeno just does whatever the hell he wants for dramatic effect. That's just how Initial D is. It's his story and he'll spin an MR if he wants to. But that's okay, I'll just use my time-travelling RR to beat him to the finish. awesome.gif

Hi All

Sorry to bother you, but I am need of a little help. Feeling like a bit of a tool, but I am unable to view/copy the Direct Download links on my mac. Any ideas as to how I may go about doing so? It's not critical - I am more than happy and able to wait - naturally, however, I would prefer not to.

Also, once again, thank you to all moderators etc., for all your hard work in sourcing and making available links for viewing and downloading of the episodes as made available. And, to all members, it's fantastic to see the discussions. It's great to see the enthusiasm of all toward Initial D as an anime, particularly given how long people have waited for this much overdue Fifth stage.

I believe Perry has implemented a sort of anti-leeching filter onto the files, making it so that only members who are 'contributive' to the community can actually access the direct downloads. Torrents are of course available for everyone else.

guys, remember this, in best motoring hot version, when the spirit mr-s battle the tsuchiya-san AE86. it was an epic battle, tsuchiya won by a small margin, but the car if im not mistaken, lost later against the mr-s..

the s2k beats the trueno in everything, I cant help, we cant help, the engineering, the age advantage, the technology, the s2k can take even the brz/gt86/frs any day, the s2k was that damn good...

I think that Kai did hit the brakes in the middle of the corner but you have to remember that in his head he's thinking he can't clear the corner and when people panic their instincts tell them to hit the brakes. The MRS is good but in the end the person driving it dictates how good it is. Takumi just has something wrong with him as other drivers wouldn't even think of going into the corner at his speeds.

BTW Takumi was not just beaten by God hand but his ae86 was also beaten by the s2000. The 86 is good but the s2k is by far and away BETTER than the ae86 in every category (Amuse s2000, J's racing s2000, ARVOU s2000, etc) even with the race engine (just trying to get more power out of the f20c is a damned hard thing to do)

Which is biased as hell, kinda like Top Gear's non-Stig segments. It proves nothing except a certain driver and a certain build of a certain car is better than another driver with another build of another car.

Does anybody know the name of the song in episode 9 AFTER the Dave Rodgers song?? I can't figure it out...

Posted by: _Dee Mar 10 2013, 01:11 AM
in the anime it did look like he hit the brakes as you can see the red reflection (7:15 into ep5) but either way, we dont know how quick they were actually going around that corner, we dont know how the corner looks as it looks like they both drifted in then both braked and then kept accelerating sideways throughout it. Under normal circumstances if agree if you let off the gas or tapped the brakes and the rear kicked out its easy to regain if your quick enough to get back on the gas, however they were both drifting around a corner i doubt halfway through a corner if you were to shift the weight due to braking that youd be able to regain it quick enough and keep it drifting through the corner with the same speed. Thats assuming that they both really pushed the limits of that corner and went in at a very high speed but since we werent shown how quick they were going we cant really accurately deduce if it was possible for him to save the car from spinning out or not.

I agree though with the fact that midengines arent as dangerous as others believe though, its different driving styles to drive fast with different cars you wouldnt be driving an FR the same way youd drive an FF or AWD for that matter i just think there isnt many affordable midengine cars for those cars to be common enough for alot of people to figure out how to drive them properly.

Is there a reason why no episodes have been in 720p, apart from 1 & 2?
I'm not asking "OMG WHERS DA HQ VIDEO PLSPLS", just wondering why the max we've seen has been 480p or... I think 502p?

The subs will be done when they are done.

We got everything from 2 days till 3 week here.

With the amount of street racing magic that has taken hold of the show, it has dwindled into the best form of car porn to me. therefore I too wish these were available in HD.

I like these episodes mainly because the lack of chatter in between the races and the FC is back, but in terms of the shots they use, and the structure of how the whole race went down, nothing will top the god foot race...they shouldve played back on the rocks though....at least for a few seconds. ah well

For one thing, the DVDs are released in 480p.

Nyaatorrents won't allow upscales for another.

Unless someone has the PPV channel you're not going to see 720p/1080p.

There is no blu-ray being advertised for Initial D either. The only one that ever was on BD was the live action one.

fosho, I am only wondering if there happened to be a good time estimate, so I am not checking every 10 minutes when i am om the comp. I also check on my new windows phone... thats why if there was a usual like, 3 days average, i wouldnt look like a dweeb.

also, no shit they will get done when they get done. I am not asking WHEN ARE SUBS COMING OUt, i was only asking what the average time is to sub this seasons episodes. get off my back mang.

Deadfish had some VERY good 720p encodes. Could barely tell it was upscaled at all.

Because it is pay-per-view. While it is broadcast on an HD channel it is possible that the HD channel has more complex encryption schema in place that make getting a cap more difficult. Or, possibly, it's much cheaper to view the SD channel (I don't get Animax since I'm not in Japan so I cannot say for sure). The point is, you're getting a pay-per-view show for free and the one Chinese capper who's been releasing all the episodes only does 360p rips. Period.

Anything you see that's larger than 360p (save for episodes 1-2, which really did have HD M2TS source... and episodes 1-4, which came out on DVD and are thus 480p) is an upscale. That's all there is to it.

Episode 9 subbed in English by IDW Fansubs. Please check the first post. I am in the process of uploading it on some streaming sites to alleviate the stress on the server (thousands of requests will be pounding the server) Episode 10 is currently being translated, it should be done tomorrow night at the same time.

As usual, my source is the Chinese subtitles. I don't vouch for 100% accuracy. It makes enough sense if you've been following the series. The *.ass file will be made available by the 15th. If you want to correct some of the translation, feel free to grab the file then.

Please try not to hammer the server too hard or it could crash. Download it once only. Thanks! smile.gif

The video quality is all we have. There is only one person uploading raws for Fifth Stage and he's a Chinese dude who only uploads 360p. It's the only thing available until the DVDs come out, so there's nothing that can be done about it really.

There is only one raw. Period. I don't know about youtube or whatever since I don't do streaming, but the only way it got onto youtube is if someone uploaded it and if they uploaded it they were using the raw we had.

Now, it could be that whoever put it on youtube doesn't know jack about how to properly upload something... but the bottom line is there's only one raw. It's 640x360. That's it.

1. Central-Anime is the group I think you're actually referring to, and they do episodes in pairs. If you're referring to IDW Fansubs (i.e. Perry) that's one ep at a time, translated from Chinese to English.

But, just one thing though. The downloadable subbed episodes say for phone or gaming console use only. They work fine on my VLC media player. And my computer is old. Like, ancient spirits of evil kinda old.

They say for mobile use only because there's no reason you'd play them on a computer when MKVs are available. You're right on technicality, of course, but looking at it practically, it's still the same thing.

Ya, that track in episode 9 was just awsome. Can sure get you pumped up happy.gif. I am going to look around for it. If I find anything ill post.

It is. Any non-listed song (that is, non-Eurobeat) is an original song composed for the OST and will be present on the eventual Sound Files album. Which means y'all fools can stop looking, you're not going to find it anywhere because no one has released it because it won't exist until Sound Files is out. rolleyes.gif

Does anyone know the last instrumental track from episode 9?? it starts at around 21:00 and goes until the end credits start rolling.

This track could be included in the Fifth Stage Sound Files album. It should be one of "the battle" themes but I can't tell clearly from the audio samples, try to hear them from here > http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=AVCA-62175
I hope this helps out somehow.

ROFL that's awesome, the Sound File includes the SFX for the Devil Z! That's so cool, even if it's totally unrelated to Initial D. laugh2.gif

Sounds like the song everyone wants is Project D III.

You didn't notice that the staff of Fifth Stage has been reusing old (and often completely irrelevant) sound effects for the cars in the show? For instance, there was the turbo blow-off sound for Takumi's AE86... the FD that I don't know what the hell that sound was but it sure as hell wasn't a Rotary, and the Z33 that in fact has the engine from Wangan Midnight's Devil Z. awesome.gif

If you don't believe me, pop open a random episode of Wangan Midnight on YouTube and listen to the Devil Z when it's cruising along. Then go to the preview link posted above and check the 'BOOST~Z33' track. wink2.gif

Basically, Fifth Stage sucks balls and the same mistake they made in the Anime ended up on the soundtrack.

Thank you guys for the subs. Since the first stage was released I've been enjoying every bit of it thanks to you guys. Nostalgia all over again. I remember back in 03/04 when I got into the game, which brought me to the anime, I got obsessed. My wife laughed at me when she found stage 1-4 on my old hdd lol.

just wanted to ask something regarding the ID subs (especially this).

In the OP there is a line in the Raise Up lyrics as "Run, Secret Celebration!"

In the CA subs the episode back, its "Run, Sleepless Challenger!"

Got confused with this and just wanted to ask which is correct.. Didnt mean to nitpick but got curious

"Run, Sleepless Challenger" is the correct one. Besides that, there are a few more. The "Raise you up" should be "But you know" and it is "Let's see how fast you can do it" instead of "Let's see you come in front".

I guess the subbing team just use their very first translation in Act. 1 to save the trouble to sub the opening again. The work, after all, is tedious.

I have to say that I was particularly pissed at this pair of episodes. Too much of the cut-away-to-backstory with the jarring background music for my taste. When the hell did Initial D become such a typical anime? I got into it specifically because it was different, not because it would turn out to become the same as every other angsty stupid shonen anime on the shelf.

Posted by: 8M6_celica Mar 17 2013, 08:18 PM
thanks for such quick subs!!! Although now it kind of sucks to have to wait another month for the next pair of episodes to come out (oh well, just gotta re-watch the old ones...lol)

BTW, there is a big forum named "Baidu Tieba" which is one of most influential site in China, you will get something interesting there if you can read Chinese, such as album "Best moves. ~and move goes on~", we share the mp3 (320 kbps CBR) and booklet scan download links on Feb. 26 for who purchase it inconveniently, 1 day earlier than release date (actually 2 days).

You're referring to the GT-R race when Ryosuke is following Takumi and watching his technique. At one point, he's drifting with the pack and never moves his hands... or anything for that matter. The gauge cluster assumes he's maintaining speed the whole way. laugh.gif

You're referring to the GT-R race when Ryosuke is following Takumi and watching his technique. At one point, he's drifting with the pack and never moves his hands... or anything for that matter. The gauge cluster assumes he's maintaining speed the whole way. laugh.gif

Not to mention Takumi literally drifted through a guardrail in one scene during the race laugh2.gif .

Ikeda's z350 gets in front of FC and applies its brake or goes side by side with the FC and brake to help the R-32 to stop. Or it may squeeze the R-32 towards the guardrail and use the car's body friction to slow it down?

No, they shoot the tires of the R32 to stop the car.
It´s basic Amercian Police tactic and worked every time (in a Hollywood Movie) laugh2.gif

DUDE!!! Whats with all the people hating!! I found this one of the most amazing sets since the start of initial D. Stage 4 was boring routing work, this one is brining some inovations in, to view ryosuke driving again and with a plot, amazing!!! pretty much every trick is played out in terms of racing driving and they reusing, but some new things actually being thought here as to stop both cars and such.

I am liking what I am seeing so far and doesnt matter if i have to wait months to get the new ones. That battle conclusion will be epic. For me this is the best it gets from ID so far. Takumi races are boring, same old shit, always wins.

Ryosuke puts much more in-depth stuff into it. I love it!!

Because the series doesn't have the 'effort' put into it like every other stage before it had. I'm not saying anything about the story (except being irritated that they took the one scene I was looking forward to from the manga and leaving it out) but am focusing on the complete lack of effort put into the show itself.

The sound effects are all wrong. In episode 1 Takumi's AE86 has a turbo. In episode 7 Keisuke's FD has something that isn't a rotary but frankly I have no idea -what- it is. Likewise in episodes 7 onward the 350Z has engine sounds reused from the Devil Z in Wangan Midnight. They were too lazy to even bother getting some sound effects from a real 350Z!!!

On top of that you have a complete lack of detail in the interiors (which has been a staple since First Stage!), lazy CG-style character art...

It's obvious that this was thrown together to please people who were impatiently begging for a new Anime. It's trash. That's why we're hating... because there are some of us who aren't sucking their dick who realize that this was just done to placate fans they think of as idiots who won't notice the difference.

Your love just proves them right. Keep sucking that dick.

Posted by: Saxifrage Mar 21 2013, 12:05 AM
Is it just me, or are the characters looking worse than before? I went blink.gif seeing Ryosuke's face. The people's faces lack something,and that makes them look bad.

At least the race went smoothly,as far as I know there aren't any parts cut.

Let's take that argument and apply it to any other anime that's been produced in the past couple years. How can that explain how beautiful Hyouka looked? Or how amazing Sasami-san is? Sure, there's the occasional QUALITY bits, but really, animation studios aren't really lowering their standards because they're "feeling the hurt". They just decrease their animators' wages and outsource to Korea.

Budget has nothing to do with it. There are basic things about the series that are incorrect. There is a baseline standard they are expected to meet because it's Initial D. This is PPV for crying out loud, it's not being broadcast weekly. If it wasn't ready it should have been held back, but instead they decided to feed people garbage.

Sorry, but I'm calling it like it is. It's shit.

Posted by: kmcn47 Mar 21 2013, 09:36 AM
Maybe ryosukes fc has done the more and more popular ls swap lol. Although I think it'd sound WAYYY different then it does. You wanna talk about bad sounds let's talk about gran turismo people. And to my knowledge the slow in fast out tecnique in the corner would have been worse for ryosuke during the sidepress because going slow in fast out already puts a lot of sideforce on the car. It'd be a lot worse going into a corner and having someone spin you "bump and run" anyone? If you go in fast and ruin your line you'll come out of the corner slower. But you'll have cornered with more stability and less chance of the tires breaking loose. Specifically in his case the rear tires.

To get it over with. For instance, it's why I continued watching Chaos;Head despite it being pretty darn shitty. Because I wanted to get it over with. I watched every stage before this so I'm not about to stop now.

So, what, you think that my only options should be 'shut up and suck their dick while watching' or 'complain about how shitty it is and don't finish it'? That's kinda silly.

That's the biggest shame of this whole thing, in my opinion. Now that we have a bad adaptation, we'll never have a good one. This is why when people ask "would you rather have no Fifth Stage" I say "pretty much, yeah". Because if we didn't have this anime, someone later on down the road might have picked it up and done a better job with it. But no, now we have this and we're almost certainly stuck with it forever.

To be honest, I think the manga is partly to blame. If you compare the content in Fifth Stage compared to Fourth Stage in the manga, it's still kind of worse. So a lot of these problems were in the manga to begin with, but there are plenty of problems with the way this series has been done so it's not by any means off the hook.

By virtue of your post I could easily ask you to silence yourself because you don't know that the Devil Z and the 350Z use completely different engines and sound completely different. I mean where does it end? are we going to let it slide if Shinigami's car suddenly turned into a green S chassi mid race and back into an R32? Of course not, so why should we stand for mismatched engine sounds and interior details that were obviously there in all previous stages. They're legitimate grievances.

If Elvis, Michael Jackson, and Tupac rose from their graves (or returned from their Alien space adventure) and made an album together I'm sure most of us would buy it just for the novelty... If someone thought it sucked, don't you think there's a few fanboys that would ignore even a legitimate grievance because of what they put out in the past?

Sorry but we won't silence ourselves just because you don't want to pay attention to the mistakes or quality issues. Enjoy it on your own by all means. Our opinion shouldn't have any bearing on your enjoyment if you don't care about the stuff we mentioned above.

i too am kind of sad of what this anime turned out to be. i am really disappointed. i mean i really wouldn't even call it an anime. animations in "motion-comics" are even better than this. the 2d animation is practically a slide show. and the CG is not really better. yeah, car models are more detailed and in HD, that's really great. but the way the car movement is animated... i mean the arcade stage games' intros are even better made. the way the keyframes are used is so amateurish... it's just linear movement with ease in and ease out. nothing more. and everyone who knows something about car physics can tell that cars are not supposed to move that way.

You've obviously never actually seen one of these in real life. As someone who does the 400-mile sojourn down the 5 Freeway every so often, I have. These ramps are actually multi-stage. First, you have the incline to allow gravity to help. However, that incline is not what actually stops a speeding vehicle. Keep in mind that these are designed to stop 18-wheeler tractor-trailer trucks that have completely lost all braking.

The way they do this is with an incredibly fine substance all along the ramp ending in a sand-like pit at the top. The sharp increase in coefficient of friction coupled with the increased effect of gravity due to the incline will curb your speed damn quick no matter how fast you're going. It won't be pleasant, and getting back off the ramp requires some heavy equipment but trust me, those ramps can and do stop runaway vehicles.

It's the same reason an international-grade race course has gravel pits filled several feet deep... it slows you down much better than grass.

It's kind of a wash between the gravel pits and plain asphalt, but asphalt is only good when your brakes work.
