guys, does anyone know what's the meaning of D on project d? I've just watched 4th stage ep 03 and Ryosuke Takahashi was mentioning that there was a true hidden meaning on project D's D. though i might have misunderstand it, but i think that was what he meant?

he does say that according to the fan subs but d in project d im guessing means domination because when he saids that he was updating the homepage for project d and the other guy asked him why the page is so provoking and he gets into the explination of how d has a hiden meaning. bascly i think it means project domination, to challenge every team and win so they can be dominant over everyone

i would b wrong...very very wrong but thats my best guess at it

I gotta say "Driver"

"Project Driver" to train a driver(or two) to become the ultimate driver(s) in japan by racing all the teams at the limit of their potentials...

Domination is good too...a lil corny tho..so iono...but then again this is an anime..lol...we'll see at the end of 4th stage I guess.

I don't think it's drift, that's.. so uncreative and easily guessable by watchers that it could be drift.

No idea what it could mean!

watch 4th stage episode 3 and you'll see that ryosuke says that the "D" in "project D" has a special 2nd meaning...that's what we're talking about.

I think ImprezaSTi27 said this before, that the 'D' in Project D stands for DoubleAce. The Doube Ace are, of course, Takumi and Keisuke.

I would have to go with Domination...Ry (Ryousuke) did want to bring a team together to just simply pwn the whole surronding prov. in racing. Would be funny if it was something totally opposite of what we all thought.
