I didn't see a listing for it in www.animenewsnetwork.com |

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. |

学校の乗組員 Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,014 Member No.: 1,896 Joined: May 24th 2004 Location: Update Profile | 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.) http://www12.brinkster.com/takepon/tunnel/vol01.jpg |

IDW Prime Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,967 Member No.: 1,600 Joined: Apr 8th 2004 Location: that city in that one state above that other state | bad news i found out it's not bunta. it's looks like a piece of crap now (just my opinion) Web Hosting by Brinkster Tunnel nuketara Sky«Blue Author: Shuichi SHIGENO Publisher: Kodansha (Young Magazine KC Special) First published: 9 January 1992 Genre: touge, romance ISBN: 4-06-323310-3 Cover: (click here) Price: 485 yen Tunnel nuketara Sky«Blue is one of Shigeno's works prior to Initial D.

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. series : author well here's the link i got it from(go to manga by series it's under Tunnel nuketara Sky«Blue). drivingmanga.tk This post has been edited by tivx on Aug 26 2004, 07:05 AM |
