Just letting you know that the R1 DVD is still messed up. Read the review: http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews2/alt_reviews/923.php By the way, i wonder if Tokyocrap's also going to get the live-action Initial D and call them "Tak" and re-edit? Hahaha... http://www.kungfucinema.com/news/2003-07-28-04.htm "he also plans to make another 'effects' movie entitled Initial D. This will be an adaptation of a Japanese manga title of the same name." Let them know how you feel (that is, if you still care): Tokyopop's Customer Service: Allyson DeSimone Voice: 323.692.6724 Fax: 323.692.6701 E-mail: customerservice@tokyopop.com |

FUBAR, gotta love that acronym |

I can imagine the ricer exhaust noises they have used also. God dammit, who makes these descisions! Who decides that a ricer exhaust sounds cooler than a real one, I would like to acutally meet the person who decided this, not JUST to kick him in the nuts, but to question his bizare reasoning! |

Chobits and everything else TokyoPop has is still produced as the original and as it was made. why target a great one? why not go target some shitty one no one likes???? why the hell target any manga/anime at all??? |

Rotary Disciple Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,209 Member No.: 11 Joined: Aug 28th 2002 Location: Chino Hills, California | yes, i think everyone should tell everyone interested in buying Initial D to buy the HK version and not the tokyocrap version |

IDW Senior Member Group: Members Posts: 98 Member No.: 652 Joined: Aug 21st 2003 Location: Update Profile | Dude, i didn't even know there was sex and prostitution and stuff in Initial D because i was reading the TOKYOPOP mangas! Man...this sux. Won't really be worth it to buy the japanese manga's since i can't read it... BTW: i wanna get the DVD's off ebay from HK, do ppl own these? are they good quality? are the subs decent? I mean, sometimes they take the japanese, sub it into chinese, then use the chinese subs to sub into english, so it gets changed and confused. Are the subs understandable? |

IDW Full Member Group: Members Posts: 32 Member No.: 674 Joined: Aug 31st 2003 Location: Update Profile | hey jlo Mein-- check out http://www.jackadeal.com for HIGH QUALITY dvds of Initial D - i thought i was getting jacked but i was pleasantly surprised about the hi-qual stuff i got from them... btw - i realize that there's quite a bit of backlash against TokyoPoop's b@st@rdiz@tion of the characters and ID storyline in their release set for October. I've been a fan of Initial D for approximately 6 days (August 24). I literally just finished watching Stages 1, 2, Extra, and 3. I enjoyed every minute of it. I can say I'm addicted... But my question is: How many of you who dislike TokyoPop's edits will refuse to watch the Americanize version of the show? Maybe i'll start a poll on that if no one has already... Have fun... |

Well, all I know is that she gets about $5000 to see "Papa", like a couple of times per month or something like that...... Tokyopop screws up again, what else is new. One of these days, loyal ID fans should lead a revolution and riot against the TP offices. Burning TP mangas in sight. | ||||||
