Hi all,
I'm new to this forum. I still hadn't reached double digits when Initial D Fifth Stage ended, so I'm a bit young for this as well. However I've immersed myself in the fandom long enough to know that fans have a love/hate relationship with 5th Stage and Final Stage. The art style was quite up to date for the time but the colour palette was a bit iffy. The finale (AE86 vs AE86) was intense and animated nicely but a bit drawn out and low-effort repetition of the same formula imo. The plotline thickened really nicely, developing plenty of characters,but
SPOILER
felt like an abrupt, badly thought out decision.

In brief - what are your personal gripes with the series? How would you have ended it? Would you change the entire plotline or just a few bits?

Particulary AE86 vs AE86. I really don't like some aspects of it.

It felt too "fictiony"... I like the feeling of the raw underground touge driving that I got from the earlier seasons.
