Hmm, if someone could turn the descrition into text, maybe we could stick it into a translator to get some idea of what it's about. I didn't see a listing for it in www.animenewsnetwork.com

It looks like the backstory you'vea ll been waiting for is there. I think its gonna explain what happened to Takumi's mum and the stuff you've been wondering about. Pitty i can't read Chinese and any japanese site i've checked is like non exsistant for that manga.

um in japanese, i think its called Tunnel nuketara Sky«Blue

from BIG IN JAPAN, a racing manga site


Tunnel nuketara Sky«Blue is one of Shigeno's works prior to Initial D. My first reaction on seeing the cover of this manga was, 'Holy crap, is that Bunta? O_o'. (My second reaction was, 'Urg, that girl sure looks skanky'.) After reading it however, only one of my initial suspicions was confirmed. No, that's not Bunta on the cover.

The main character of this story is 18-year-old Toshihiko, a senior high school student who drives an AE86 Sprinter Trueno. If you're hoping that Toshihiko uses his car for lots and lots of racing, you're going to be disappointed - there is only one race in this manga. The story is mainly about how Toshihiko deals with his attraction to two different girls, Chiharu and Maari.

Just like in romance novels, Toshihiko must decide - will it be Chiharu, who is very much attracted to him, or will it be Maari, the one who already has a boyfriend? O_O I know it sounds cheesy, but the whole manga is pretty much full of lovely cheesiness. (And after reading it, you'll probably wonder if Shigeno has been dumped a lot when he was younger.)

If only that was regular text and not an image so we can throw it in a translator. There has to be someone on this forum that can read chinese.

The artwork is decent enough, although some of the character designs will make you twitch. Worth getting if you're interested in Shigeno's earlier works, otherwise skip it.

Buy this manga at Amazon.co.jp.
Buy the Chinese translated manga at YesAsia.com.
