I don't actually like eurobeat that much. but then I watched the remake movie where there is no eurobeat and it just felt wrong, I guess its an intrinsic part of drifting

It's gonna be at the top of the forums 99% of the time anyway so there's no real reason not to sticky it.

Some of the races go on way too long and there's only a couple characters I care about at all but when the car goes over a ramp and the eurobeat kicks in I cheer.

It’s insanely hosed up to me that the first liscensed version of initial d removed the eurobeat

As always, live action adaptations suck rear end and are very bad. The car chase scenes were garbo and they were going 10mph max.

Give the dude a minute. He's probably reading through all the mod threads, like how to sticky stuff, and the script to read when someone brings up the illuminati.

I only watched Season 1 because it's "the good one". I kinda liked it, the action direction feels good even if the CGI issssss 90s CGI.
Sometimes the characters act like real people and that owns (except for one instance with the Sileighty driver girl where she's like "let me race your friend and I'll give u my virgin"). And it has gud eurobeat but it's mostly driven (no pun intended) by the music matching what's happening. though there isn't a literal rain of fire.
Random thought is that uhhhh it's sad that other manga/anime referencing it always reference INERTIA DRIFT?! and PUMP UP THE EUROBEAT, it feels pretty lazy, like in the same way someone referencing Star Wars by going I AM YOUR FATHER feels lazy.
