the anime "filler episode" was a real and very specific thing that largely died in the 2000s. the way the phrase "filler episode" was interpreted by anime fans-- "anything that does not move plot forward"-- became a contagious disease that did immense damage to serialized storytelling as a whole

at least it's true to the manga
If this was a drinking game, I'd be an alcoholic in 23 minutes just from a single episode of MF GHOST
it got one in 2005

Itโs 1993 and the fastest street racers of Usui Pass are a pair of lesbians ๐
kinda jealous, the shipping cost to the UK was unfortunately more than the cost of the magazine so I decided against it
I dont understand why anyone would want to listen to music that no one could be bothered to actually make, especially of a genre with so many passionate people in it
Free copy of the first volume of Initial D provided you can suffer the Tokyopop translation. Not sure why Kodansha insists on still promoting this release when they have an actually good translation available.
Shigeno admittedly has done some ecchi stuff, there's very little of it in Initial D but there are a few sex scenes in his earlier works. It is funny to see him show up for this though.
theres a couple gashapon keychains/acrylic standees of the S2000 if I remember correctly, I think I've seen them on Yahoo Auctions Japan a few times

death of the artist is a stupid baby excuse for clowns with no standards to pretend the money they give her doesn't literally go to making trans people's lives worse. fucking get over her her writing isn't even good. ursula k le guin and terry prachett are right there. have some fucking self respect

Yeah this is the digital rerelease from 2019, cheaper to reuse I suppose. The omnibuses have an entirely new translation, they're much more modern.
Before the license offer went out, the # of subscribers to the subreddit was part of the pitch deck for the new edition.
huh, neat, didn't know that
Kodansha referenced the Initial D Subreddit?
it's possible the unit was running an older version, I think thats quite common outside of Japan
The Suzuki Carry is also available as a playable car initiald.sega.jp/inidac/car/#...
at least it's series accurate
A good a day as any to enjoy A Dance Song I suppose. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxHr...
It's a sad day today, as #eurobeat legend Mauro Farina passed away at just 68 years old.
Farina was one of the godfathers of eurobeat, even coining the name and active in italodisco and eurobeat since the early 80s.
My condoleances to his family, friends and the #SAIFAM team.
You will be missed. ๐ญ
hoping more people share this sentiment so i can find a single tokyopop volume that isn't selling for 2/3 times its original retail price
This is only true of the Tokyopop dub, the later dub by Funimation gratefully reincluded the Eurobeat again
I mean its in 5, I would be shocked if it wasnt in the game
It appears in Initial D Arcade Stage 5
next time on Initial D: these lesbians
There's no "would" about it, they went nuts, they still do. There's well over a thousand doujin works for the series
