Interesting parallel in both the Initial D and Wangan Midnight animes: Tatsuya Shima, A.K.A: Blackbird, was voiced by Shinichiro Miki, who also voiced Takumi Fujiwara in Initial D. The original Akio Asakura (Eriko's brother) was voiced by Tomokazu Seki, who just happened to voice Keisuke Takahashi in Initial D. Furthermore, Shima & Asakura and Takumi & Keisuke are rivals in their respective series. Just cool little tidbit I wanted to point out.
Wangan midnight. A story of a guy that didn't have good tires or enough downforce. Seriously though first understeer and now liftoff oversteer. I'm convinced that z is making lift
I will tell you the reason for that. The reason is that when you work at a fuel station, many of them, especially in Asia, has a car workshop. On top of that, by being employed you get some small benefits and special prices for car parts you buy in to upgrade and fix your car with. But the most important thing is, you get to learn a lot about cars, see many cars that stop by and refuels. Often you'll meet other street racers and talk about their cars and common passion/hobby. You get to learn a lot about cars by just talking to the various car owners that stop by. That is if your open and forward enough to talk to people you don't know. So you get to meet other people with similar interest also making it easier to maybe arrange some races in the future if you challenge them and you happen to have an interesting car or some reputation. NOT THAT I WOULD KNOW ANY OF THIS AS IM TOTALLY NOT DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL DURING MY SPARE TIME.
Kubi Kameho lol true as fuck i do the same work and talking to people is a way to make your day less boring and sometimes something funny happen in the garage
Gotta love Blackbird's logic; "Because my old racing friend crashed, every time I see that car on the road i'll keep driving like an ass and challenging it to a race to keep making it crash". XD
@@gromitmuggaming8958 @LatentWagen Oh I get what he's thinking, it just makes me chuckle imagining Blackbird going hardcore against like, ANYONE. This quiet old man who just factory restored it? DRIVE LIKE AN ASS. This young woman with a taste for nostalgia? DRIVE LIKE AN ASS. XD
So could you say, that the Devil Z is a demonic entity, that just thinks "Screw you, you are not good enough for me!" and attempts to kill its current owner in the hopes, to find someone who it deems worthy to drive it?
It's a good old 600HP beast, and it doesn't have the computer magic of cars such as the Skyline - hell, it still has a carburetor. The Blackbird (Porsche 964) is an old beast too
*paper cup in the cup holder of the “Hachi-Roku” that determine whether the tofu is tofine or tofucked and allows Fujiwara Takumi to know the tofu limits*
Reason Akio Crashed: -Car didn’t like the spare key -driving at the devils hour -driving against the devils rival -driving a devils car -racing against an angel of death -car is tuned for straight line racing -devil’s hour made car take control -other drivers weren’t worthy enough -car is testing Akio
Probably. Akinas first corner(or technically second) is hard with cold tires n brakes. Speeding up at the start then entering high chance he will crash with that low experience
Doge Charger " I've just crash on the sign before Higher on the streeet Now I've fucked up my self big time yo !!!! Calling you and the searchers of devil z Standing on my feet just like im a fucking statue, Boooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
Its crazy to me how many times this goes over people's heads, but the Devil Z is haunted. It wasn't Akio's fault he crashed, the Z tried to kill him. At 23:08, the Z turns towards the barriers, despite Akio turning the wheel right.
Is it not possible to enjoy both highway battles and mountain drifting? Initial D is the drifting anime, wangan is the highway battle anime, and Capeta is the track racing anime. They differ in the same way cars themselves differ. Some suited for drifting, some for highway battles, and some for track racing. Even if you could argue some kind of objective superiority (Which I don't think you can, everything is subjective), how does that make you a better person than the other guy?
Because story is all over the place,scenes seem to be put together randomly,characters are so blatant and flat it feels like I'm watching tutorial on how to not write,it's supposedly car anime like initial d but after watching an hour of it all I've seen is shitty looking black porsche going down shitty highway overtaking same fucking shitty truck 5 times?srsly,same fucking scenes keep repeating like it's trying to mock itself and overall initial d is pretty bad of anime but it makes up for it if you're a car guy,this is just random shit someone shat out after being amazed with Christie
Just found out about this anime from random youtube tangents, glad I did. Takes me back to the dreamcast days and playing Tokyo Extreme Racer. Plus the main car is my all time favorite car, love a nice blue 240z. Side note. I had a 86 300zx and saw a perfect blue 240z for sale just down the block from my house, years ago. Guy wanted $6k USD for the near mint Turbo, I got a loan from a friend and went to talk to the guy again, Z was gone. Teh heart ache!
It’s not supposed to.. it’s an anime and the car takes controls on that corner everytime, he’s driving a car with its own soul so this car wouldn’t handle like every other car.
we get to choose how we die if someone wants to die racing than that's no evil thing it's not suicide if we believe we can do something but fail to initiate what you planned cause everyone is gonna die you just don't know when
First off, in an S30 chassis you sit fairly behind the center line of the car, so adding a second person into the car would add a higher percentage of weight over the back. Also, weight distribution matters side to side, not just front to back, and for a car built for these kinds of speeds, there would most likely be some ballast to account for the driver, therefore a passenger would throw the weight distribution off slightly towards the passenger side. But in the end, this is a joke comment on a youtube video of a Japanese cartoon about street racing, so really, who gives fuck?
I mean yes it would affect the power/weight ratio, but that wouldn't cause him to wreck. Having a passenger would throw off the balance compared to what he was used to, which might cause the car to handle slightly different and possibly causing him to wreck. Again, it was a joke.
Emmanuel Kumi 150HP at the start (estimate from Ryosuke Takahashi) Then 240HP judging from other group a trd engines. Quite a lot for a 900 odd kilo car especially on a downhill.You are thinking of the American ae86 which is actually an ae88 which only has about 115HP stock.The Japanese 4age has 128HP stock.
When he said "Why wouldn't you move when I told you." I felt that in my heart because my S30 had no power steering. 😭 I got a lot of upper body strength tho.
damn i played this game in the arcades as a kid didnt even know it was about a show. now im 30 and watching this for the first time. damn thats usa for you.
The fact that a lot of people said "it's an old car, ofc it's dangerous" or "learn how to drive or counter steer" like dude it's an anime, an anime about supernatural car, yeah it's not logical and it doesn't want to be logical. Grow up
Where I'm from there is a car like the Z, a red 77 Trans Am, each owner of the car died and it now bears the plate of F1R3BRD, u see it almost every night exceeding 210 MPH when i drive home from Chicago, my uncle owned the car in 93, died in a wreck where the car disappeared overnight from the scrap yard it was in.
The rear partial side window is a little too large in back, and makes it look like a 2+2. I wrecked mine a little bit here and there, and I knew that the metal is thin and hard to access, especially the rear end unibody. If you crash the hood and front end up, you have to reweld the hood stay area and get a new set of the lift scissors on both sides, that get sprung out from it. If you crash them once really hard, that is it. He would be doing a lot of cutting, hammer work and welding to keep it intact. He would have to remove and send out or replace the front end every thin he hit something. There's no training montage yet for it. Mine steered pretty well, but was unforgiving about where you took it. It turned on an axis just a little behind the transmission.
When you see both guys who has same name AS Akio Asakura, but with different face… You find it weird and shocked going on here in your life. One Akio Asakura is Erico’s brother. And the other that is NOT Erico’s brother but with a different face is Akio Asakura. My guess is they were born in hospital. The other Akio Asakura that is NOT Erico’s brother is a mystery. The people doesn’t even know that is another Akio Asakura the one that is NOT Erico’s brother. Nobody ever knew about this.

Boi you should learn from Takumi! Do not race if you haven't practiced for several years! Do not race without eurobeat! And Do not race if you don't know kansei dorifto yet!
regardless of lack of power steering and after setting his toe and camber, he probably forgot to check his caster settings. and shorten his tc rods too...
Same thing in GTA: the Pigalle for Devil Z, Comet Retro Custom for Blackbird, the Elegy Retro Custom for Reina, R200 Club, Hiramoto, and Kuroki's Skyline R32, and Armored Kuruma painted both red and blue to represent Eiji and Maki Kamiya. I also have Futo and Yellow Banshee as a substitute to Keisuke's FD.
Interesting so far, not sure how it'll go. A part of me is hoping it ends up being something like the Z being a lot like the Grim Reaper R32 from Initial D, only instead of the driver, it's the car with murderous intent. I think that would be pretty awesome. Only have to hope this whole "It wasn't the Z's fault, I made a mistake" bit doesn't last.
Suspension’s one of the most important things you could possibly upgrade. I didn’t even get coils, I just got better springs and better shocks and my car’s cornering speed increased by 15mph
600 horsepower with no abs no traction control no power steering and a body that’s lightweight...nah he would die his experience with driving cars is very limited he is only used to his eight six with barely any horsepower
"It's ok I won't crash twice.." *Crashes into the signs*
so are they just going to crash every episode or what?

Wangan midnight. A story of a guy that didn't have good tires or enough downforce. Seriously though first understeer and now liftoff oversteer. I'm convinced that z is making lift
mintzrafter its front just isn't good enough in the first place and Akio is too dumb to realize that. There's a reason it got fucked a lot.
Akio should’ve gotten a 240ZG nosecone.
Needs better tires and better suspension or a spoiler. Dude was sliding around every time he changed lanes
It's just an anime chill
In the ending the car was steering the opposite direction of where akio was steering to so i dont get how its his fault.
why do all secret drivers work a a gas station?
Cuz it what fuel their PASSION!
lolz.
I will tell you the reason for that. The reason is that when you work at a fuel station, many of them, especially in Asia, has a car workshop.
On top of that, by being employed you get some small benefits and special prices for car parts you buy in to upgrade and fix your car with.
But the most important thing is, you get to learn a lot about cars, see many cars that stop by and refuels.

Shoot. CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!
THAT IS SO FUNY XDXDDXD LOL😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪SO FUNBYYYYBAHABAAHAHAHAHAGAGG
Always LOVED the idea of a supernatural car. Cars feel so alive anyway, it makes sense they might have a soul.
stradale13 yep, that's what makes it different from Initial D.
That is super fucking trash execution of the idea tho
Captain Blue actually in Initial D the Hachi-Roku Toreno had “wings like that of a bird”, as described by Shinji Inui
So yeah takumis 86 is a angel cuz white wings
And akio's s30z is a devil cuz killing people is fun
Stephen King is gonna sue somebody
Gotta love Blackbird's logic; "Because my old racing friend crashed, every time I see that car on the road i'll keep driving like an ass and challenging it to a race to keep making it crash". XD
That’s so true but I think what’s he’s trying to do is crash the car until it becomes un repairable so that’s people will stop driving it
He has something to prove against the Z. When you get beat it's as much about the car as the driver...
HAHAHHAHAH
@@gromitmuggaming8958 @LatentWagen Oh I get what he's thinking, it just makes me chuckle imagining Blackbird going hardcore against like, ANYONE. This quiet old man who just factory restored it? DRIVE LIKE AN ASS. This young woman with a taste for nostalgia? DRIVE LIKE AN ASS. XD
Initial D : Never lose a single race
Wangan Midnight : Crash during every single race
My man Akio is on that sigma male crashzilioner mindset
Takumi got some serious thick plot armor
except the initian d is the slowest car to ever win high end tiers
@@azander1958 At least he doesn't crash.
So could you say, that the Devil Z is a demonic entity, that just thinks "Screw you, you are not good enough for me!" and attempts to kill its current owner in the hopes, to find someone who it deems worthy to drive it?
UAZ -469 yep... that's the story from the arcade game
Or it could just be a cranky shit in the ateering wheel and everybody just is overlooking it
It's a good old 600HP beast, and it doesn't have the computer magic of cars such as the Skyline - hell, it still has a carburetor. The Blackbird (Porsche 964) is an old beast too
Let Takumi drive the motherfucker then
Diego Alvarez takumi would kill the Z instead and move back to hit tofu dofrito machine
Those orange signs are as iconic as the water in the cup.
*paper cup in the cup holder of the “Hachi-Roku” that determine whether the tofu is tofine or tofucked and allows Fujiwara Takumi to know the tofu limits*
Nice tofu puns.
Reason Akio Crashed:
-Car didn’t like the spare key
-driving at the devils hour
-driving against the devils rival
-driving a devils car
-racing against an angel of death
-car is tuned for straight line racing
-devil’s hour made car take control
-other drivers weren’t worthy enough
-car is testing Akio
If Akio challenged Takumi in Akina I think first corner and Akio dies.
Vincent Tobio remember Shingo's crash? Instead Akio actually breaks the guard rail and falls of the cliff.
Reragi that's what I meant.
Vincent Tobio lmao
Probably. Akinas first corner(or technically second) is hard with cold tires n brakes. Speeding up at the start then entering high chance he will crash with that low experience

It can more easily be explained as a faulty steering rack/power steering issue/worn out tie rods.
Akio: im fine with this Devil Z, because i didn't die in it yet
The car (devil Z):im gonna end this dude's whole career.
I thought Takumi was working in a gas station refueling the Night Kids GTR.
Pat C Shima voiced by the same voice actor, Shinichiro Miki.

Learn to counter steer! That's how you won't crash!
JDMFanBoi64 isn't that the problem tho, when he steered, the car would jerk the other way.
Because the Devil Z doesn't have handling
1. doesnt have a high quality brake
2. doesnt have ABS
3. doesnt have traction control
X STATE neither does the fujiwara tofu shops ae86
Lynn Mckenney But it only has 114 horsepower

Watch initial d
I think he never bought good branded tires
This just makes me want a 240z
from the second episode I already know why the z crashed...its because when its racing blackbird the car reacts differently
Fred Teixeira realistically it's because it has no ABS traction control or power steering.
Samuel Tyrrell or maybe because he needs to put on some decent fucking tires
he just needs to learn how to fucking switch lanes at high speeds
Maybe he needs to learn how to fucking “EXTREME-ULTRA-SUPER-LATE-BRAKING”
Now I see what that old Horndsun thing from cars meant when he said that “Turn right to go left” crap or whatever
Ryosuke Takahashi got big! Also grew an Afro!
I like the fact they give personality to the car
i love this anime like that Z loves orange signs with arrows on them
Ok that was anticlimactic
That’s interesting, Takumi is like the opposite of Akio
Takumi is one with the car, while Akio’s Z has a mind of it’s own
U know what. 2 of them work at the Gas Station

Plot twist:
*that porsche can drift*
that mubil gas station lmao
The fact that a lot of people said "it's an old car, ofc it's dangerous" or "learn how to drive or counter steer" like dude it's an anime, an anime about supernatural car, yeah it's not logical and it doesn't want to be logical. Grow up

Pov: you finished Inital d and looked for similar racing anime and found this to watch, after searching for anime apps that dont have it listed.
Maybe the road was too weak to receive that Z's speed...
Or that Z is really devil-spirited...
Who knows?
*or maybe some stuff in the car is beat up like the suspension or sth*
I knew he could drift, but who knew Takumi could drag race, too?
Why would you drift on a highway?
Swivel why not

Feels like it tries too hard to be both and kinda fails in what made both iconic
Tufte Motorsport are you a car guy
I see myself as a carguy atleast
MT Bil og Motorsport Well I agree

I like this
Can't this dude just do a proper alignement and balance of suspension, godammit? He always looses control of the car!
Boi you should learn from Takumi! Do not race if you haven't practiced for several years!
Do not race without eurobeat!
And Do not race if you don't know kansei dorifto yet!
@t0mat0 On Tokyo highway, devil car drift you!
Get this man a paper cup!
inertia beat
YEP TOTALLY DRIFTING ON AN EXPRESSWAY MHM
first time i watch this episode i was like dame this dude sucks at driving on a straight line hahaha
regardless of lack of power steering and after setting his toe and camber, he probably forgot to check his caster settings. and shorten his tc rods too...
I like the fact how Takumi And akio both worked at a gas station
Fuck yeah. 3 am on a Wednesday after a double shift. That sounds safe.
This is like the opposite of initial d I love it
I play forza 3 and just because this anime I got the car some color and rims...
Plus I got a lot of initial d cars too and I have the 86
Andrew The Gamer why not?
Same thing in GTA: the Pigalle for Devil Z, Comet Retro Custom for Blackbird, the Elegy Retro Custom for Reina, R200 Club, Hiramoto, and Kuroki's Skyline R32, and Armored Kuruma painted both red and blue to represent Eiji and Maki Kamiya. I also have Futo and Yellow Banshee as a substitute to Keisuke's FD.
it's only interesting you if got both irl if not whatever
Splitz Kid302 YAS
Some of the trucks drivea like an AI..it change lane even there's a fast car behind..
Interesting so far, not sure how it'll go. A part of me is hoping it ends up being something like the Z being a lot like the Grim Reaper R32 from Initial D, only instead of the driver, it's the car with murderous intent. I think that would be pretty awesome. Only have to hope this whole "It wasn't the Z's fault, I made a mistake" bit doesn't last.
12:33 Whoooooa, bro, clam down! She just doesn't want you gett'n got like her brother!
omg its Ryosuke lmao
(first time watching wm btw)
Def needs suspesion upgrades
Suspension’s one of the most important things you could possibly upgrade. I didn’t even get coils, I just got better springs and better shocks and my car’s cornering speed increased by 15mph
classic anime totally my type
This anime is BEFORRRRE initial d based on manga. So yea.
I think Takumi would like the Z... It seems like drifting it would seem relatively easy for him.
600 horsepower with no abs no traction control no power steering and a body that’s lightweight...nah he would die his experience with driving cars is very limited he is only used to his eight six with barely any horsepower
