Takumi had too much plot armor ngl
@@BLACK123AGAAHAH
*Too much plot armour 🛡 in his inventories* ya, perceptorr...🙁🤷🏻♂️
What a guy. He chose to lose than to puke inside his car. Absolute car guy. Lol
0:54 🤢
Yeah.
He could've opened his window or something...
LMFAO
That’s what the r34 guy said lol, bros weird for saying that
I actually paused the episode and went for a walk when I first watched this episode. Like, bruh, Takumi's plot armor isn't even hidden. They're just rubbing it on our faces and saying: *YEAH BITCH, YOU LIKE THIS, DON'T YOU!? YOU DON'T? I DON'T FUCKING CARE!!*
It's pretty poorly hidden throughout tbh, masquerading as 'Fujiwara luck' is a pretty weak disguise.
Hell, Ryosuke even says he's been saved by this luck.
@@pranshr005 Did Ryosuke say that? cuz I definitely don't remember him saying that.
@@SoraRaida he did
Rewatch it
@@pranshr005 the Fujiwara zone never made sense tbh
I don't agree with like anything you guys are saying. Why is it "poorly written?" To my memory there's no instance of him getting lucky that either is not within the realm of possibility (reasonably occurring happenstance) or was not already in some manner foreshadowed, i.e. Toshiya mentioning his old age and how his concentration could not hold. It's not plot armor.. that's just what it is. Real.
That's because Takumi *is* the **LUCKY MAN**
Initial Dluck
The power of the protagonist
Lucky man my butt. I proceeded to damage the suspension of my Trueno.It's like I've dinged her up I've blown a engine now this. And later on I would come to realize that wasn't the end of the suffering in my Trueno. But I can't complain she's managed alot.
@@takumifujiwara7096 you samir'd the car and won because your opponent got out to puke, you can't tell me that's not lucky as hell
@@ryosuke.takahashi I mean yeah but at a cost and a pricy one at that
I’m pretty sure in this race it was supposed to be an insanely hot night if I remember correctly and racing like that hard is going to make you hotter and sweat even more. And since it went on for so many rounds it kinda makes sense for driver endurance to become the deciding factor and that sort of thing does happen in real life….
That all being said what makes this feel so dumb is that takumi is like 16 and god hand is like 60. Like wow bro you out endured a senior citizen.
Like no disrespect to god hands but it just feels like takumi only won cause it was too hot and under any other conditions he would’ve lost. Kind of like when he won cause of some leaves
@@BladezAndrew ON GOD DUDE
@@BladezAndrew kind of like when he won cause a random animal crossed the street
Takumi is 18, but yeah. Wack

As much as I love initial D, the show went from "Wow a real racing move you can actually pull off" to "okay how will the writers bullshit this race this time".
I just watched the anime this summer and after the second stage it just got repetitive and too bullshitty just like you said. It isn't a very good anime third stage onwards. I stayed for the music though, stages 4-final have some of my favourite Eurobeat songs of all time.
@@LeToplache007 fourth stage was decent at times tho
@@5iverk "At times" doesn't really cut it when you had a phenomenal first stage and a very good second stage. Probably aren't going to rewatch that for a long time.
Back in 90s and early 2000s, people put this one thing in both anime and games called effort.
@@mastersourcream7267
"Effort"? So *what the heck it's supposed to be* in the first place 🤔😐?
this race was perfectly fine, the guy was old and its hot out, they even admitted in the anime that Takumi lost the battle but won in results
Even if the logic works out. Having him lose in such a way was so annoying.
@@ploppyjr2373 My brother in christ, this is literally last battle of the 4th stage. Do you think it would be climactic for Takumi to lose?
@@gerardbudzeniusz4332 could you point out where i said that?
@@ploppyjr2373 That's not important. People just forget that it's just an anime and this was the last battle
@@gerardbudzeniusz4332 how is that not important? You’re saying something that’s effectively unrelated to my comment.
I don’t mind takumi winning, i never said that, i never thought that. All i was saying is that the way how he won
This is one of the best races, but the ending is horrible, the creators of the anime don't even disguise the "power of the protagonist" lol. It looks like those fights from certain animes

Ever heard of endurance races my friend
Thankfully, Takumi considers this a loss, or at the very least a draw.
Definitely a loss, lol. He even pulled away.
I remember him saying it was a draw after the battle
I mean he did loss in this race. Only win by result. This is not Takumi 1st loss since he did loss to Evo guy for broken engine.
We have been hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, run amuck, and flat out deceived
0:39 toshima beat our own protagonist so hard he had a stroke.
I get the idea being that he failed the "endurance" part of the race, but it still seems shoehorned in. I personally count this and the Evo race as losses, even if they aren't viewed as losses to Project D.
how can you view the evo as a loss when the guy that drives the Evo even said it himself he doesn't consider it a win lmao.
@@hammbaby but Takumi felt he lost. He even admits to it. Blowing the engine without crossing finish is technically a loss. Evo driver considered it an unfinished race due to engine blowing. Regardless tho Takumi did technically lose the race.
I dont understand why they couldn't let Takumi taste defeat at least once, it made every race pointless after 4th stage.
Fr, this would have been a better series finale, if he lost this race.
He lost in second stage though
@@kotarojujo2737 Yeah but instead of him just losing they made him blow up his engine too which took away Takumi's responsibility for the loss
@@CandidaRosa889 but think about it, it's an 86 so of course the engine is gonna blow up trying to go fast as an evo.
Takumi already knows what defeat is after Bunta smoked him
Either God Hand should have won, or the writer could think of a BELIVEABLE way of Takumi winning in a way that it still shows that God Hand was superior. Like the race of Keisuke vs. God Foot, in which God Foot would clearly have won if it was uphill only, but God Foot chose to race uphill and downhill with the purpose of giving Keisuke the advantage and making things exciting for himself. And he didn't even lose, he just gave up (Keisuke started first in the second run, and he reovertakes God Food close to the finish line). It was a believeable result.
In god foot case, yes he give blonde the advantage by proposing up and down hill battle, but there's logic in that battle. God foot knew he will win nonetheless if it uphill so he give himself handicap since he wanna have fun. And in the end he conceded despite they can go another round bcos his tyre was finished. Whereas the way god hand lose was just utter BS
Arm
Bruh, Takumi winning by his youthful endurance instead of skill is extremely believable, the fk you talking about?
@@fg009letyrds8 I disagree. They are not driving a F1 car, and God Hand only got sick after Takumi suspension broke, pure plot armor, it had little to do with their endurance.

The god hand thought it would be over 1 round earlier. If it was all as the god hand expected he would’ve won before vomitting. But takumi endured and made the god hand panic. So you cant say its all plot armor. But yeah takumi’s luck is unbelievable.

Quick upload to let you know my edit of Takumi vs Shingo race with a little different ending coming this Saturday!!!
Also I will change my profile pic at 8.6 subs lol
This one, EK9 Spoon suddenly have a cat walking by iirc, stage 3 battle with MR-2 the leaf, against Ryosuke his tires worn out but not Takumi's, and many more XD
I'd argue that the win against the MR-2 wasn't plot armor. Takumi was just thinking outside the box. The win against Ryosuke could've been due to the fact Takumi had raced on Mt Akina millions of times and I'm sure he dealt with weather conditions, tire wear, and a lot more. The cat walking by was forsure bs tho.
@@derrickmorris9423 I can agree with that
I think the writers were trying to show you that anything can happen in a race...that's why having a stroke of luck can go a long way in helping out on winning
the writer was bullshitting because he made god hand too OP and couldn't come up with a smart way to let takumi win, or god forbid takumi ever takes an L.
Man, this race will be sooooo MUCH better if only showed the part where Takumi overtakes God Hand at the end and ONLY
That could hidden the potential plot armor. Even God Hand said he could not achieve that because the s2000 is more lowered than ae86
the funny thing is that it's literally what they did in battle stage 2, they cut this ending and the race just ends after takumi's overtake lmao
Arm
The way I looked at this race is similar to how it feels when u kinda have to go piss a lil, but the second ur actually in the bathroom, now all of a sudden u have to go really bad. For god arm, he was holding out the whole time, because of adrenaline pumping through him. As soon as he thought the race was over, the adrenaline went down and his body couldn’t hold it in anymore. The heat quickly over came him and made him sick. It’s a lot more likely to happen then u think. It’s just how our bodies work.
Takumi even stopped after passing God Hand’s S2000. Doesn’t Takumi have any honour?
Right? Like bruh
Bruh how could he even know he was throwing up? You can't see that at the back. Maybe god hand spinned at the last corner and he is looking at the sky out of shame?

As much as i love takumi, this was pure plot armor💀
And indeed, that moment was an *100% pure plot armor* 🛡 for Takumi Fujiwara yet...😎👍
There would've been so much times he lost but yk, plot armor.
God Hand would have won if he was a Sigma Male in a Bugatti
But God Hand Lost is Suffered a Sick Cough Problem for God Hand.
Nah. The Bugatti would have broken down first on the first lap.
@@hachiman58 fax
What color would the Bugatti be tho
Takumi lost many times in the series if u include the ones when he got smoked by his dad, to the evos, todou racing schools pro diver in the ek and then this. "Technically he won" but in terms of skill, he lost
Yup Takumi probably one of the most skilled character but not number 1, I think if he rematch against Keisuke, Keisuke gonna win since he's also improved a lot and his car is actually a better car overall
@@haluyolo7568 nah i dont think so. Takumi also improved and developed alot since their last match i doubt his modified rx7 would matter. He also has the blind attack and fujiwara zone. Takumi has also been racing against modified cars i dont it really matters
@@haluyolo7568 takumi dont lose if him use bunta`s impreza, in manga is also says about this situation
@@KoenigFPS By the end of it, Keisuke had basically racing driver levels of concentration and by far the fastest flat out pace of any driver in the series. On a neutral course both up and down hill, Keisuke probably would've had him especially considering that his RX-7 was most certainly a far better car by the end of it. If Keisuke started in front, then he would just pull away and not be caught
@@antonio4ballondor30 yea but then again they both have different styles. Ryosuke mentioned this multiple times in the series. Takumi is more adept at mountain pass and dynamic course meanwhile keisuke's style is more for circuit or track racing. Keisuke became a pro race driver meanwhile takumi became a pro rally driver in the UK at the end of the series
Plot armor at its FULLEST
Plot armor is real.
I don’t think it is that bad of an asspull because it is implied he is old and does not have as much endurance as someone as young as Takumi especially since he did not expect for the race to go to an eight round. And there was a heat wave in the summer when they raced so it makes somewhat sense for his to get tired.
The whole series, I think about half of Takumi's wins were from technicalities or aka, plot armor
Takumi is always the most skilled driver in the worst car, I think Shuichi Shigeno propositaly made Takumi win almost every race by luck just to show that even If you are very good at racing you CAN'T win against a big disadvantage, unless you have luck.
But it’s an anime. Not a reality. The 86 isn’t a terrible car. It’s was actually considered a descent car for drifting. Kinda like a 240sx
@@SkyMonkey42 well, I never drove the hachi-roku, so I don't know If it's really good like some people say
@@SkyMonkey42 It's not up-to-par for performance racing, considering Takumi's opponents he definitely won out of luck especially considering how they were not only driving powerful cars but had extreme racing talent themselves. Takumi even beat the likes of Ryosuke in his FC3S which would definitely beat Takumi outside of Akina.
@@SkyMonkey42 Drift king himself drove it and called it shit to drive. Hell, the point of the anime is that the car is so shitty but Takumi can still beat more modern cars with it. That's why everyone wants to try and beat him but can't since he drives so well. "If you can drift the 86, you can drift every other car" - Drift king. That's the point
They should have put this up as a tie, not a win.
Neither of them could finish the race and it would not diminish Takumis reputation in the slightest, or be an inappropriate conclusion.
If the win against Kyoichi was a tie, then how was this a win…
It’s a tie, and it would have made more sense to call it that in the show…
this guy is the real god foot as his technique requires more precision foot work. I really wanted joshima to win this race
He still is clearly more skilled than Takumi, Takumi himself admitted so.
Takumi could've lost to 2 f*cking Hondas. Wow.
Yeah the plot armor pissed me off too
me after riding on a 48 hour road trip:
The power of Plot Armor.
Same thing with Ryosuke, Kogashiwa at Irohazaka, Impact Blue, etc.
No offense or anything but what is so plot armor about Impact Blue vs Takumi Fujiwara? Anyways, I respect your opinion but I just wonder what you mean by that.
@@InitialDWeebTwentyOne it was Takumi's first ever run at Usui & he was able to keep up with Mako who practised on that course for years. Especially C121.
I admit, any driver can make mistakes.
But my other gripe is that Mako was genuinely pulling a gap on Takumi at the end, Takumi was being left behind by her raw pace, but ofcourse, Mako had to spin out.
I wonder, did a lot of people forget this was an "endurance battle", as stated by Ryosuke in the beginning of the race? It isn't really a bullshit conclusion if it was already discussed before the race even started.
If people are so mad about the conclusion of this endurance race, then why isn't everybody shitting on Keisuke vs. Wataru in 4th Stage too? Both the conclusions pretty much have the same outcome.
I think they are mad that they were so close to the finish line and if he held out for just another minute or two he would have won.
I think it was smart for the author to do this imo. He couldnt make takumi lose in the final battle cause that shit would be too anticlimactic, but he also wanted to show how Takumi is still young and has room to improve.
Ok Takumi just had a good rng on him (idk what i said now)
I was in the edge of my seat when this happened....but they took it away from me!
Funny how he got lucky against most of the Hondas huh?
technically speaking, He did lost to his father...
I just can’t believe he somehow fucking accepted that as a win.
I swear there is some plots in Initial d that is literally like a game cheat that always make the main character win
If they just made tak a gary stu (male version of mary sue if u don't know it, basically made tak OP af) i think nobody will have problem with that, just have him blind attack and ditch overtake everyone all the way to undefeated end, nobody will complain. But instead they give us BS like sudo don't consider this a race, ryosuke race in akagi is "not counted", bird attack todo school ace, god hand puking, shinji surprise at tak's engine blow up. It frustrating
Plot Armor was so stupid in this episode
he did technically lose the race, but the incident stopped it before they could actually finish
He was so much better than takumi but then the plot armour came in as always
0:48 *he vomits when drifting*
Blue car: F*CK, SH*T!
Takumi: i lucky
TAKUMI LOST, END OF THE DISCUSSION. I was so pissed
01:11 Yeah baby, so *that's all folks* ☹️: Takumi Fujiwara's *friggin' lost it* in the end...😓

Even KSI is disappointed with the extreme plot armor
cant believe that takumi didnt think about using less steering like in the duct tape deathmatch.
"cant believe that takumi didnt think about using less steering like in the duct tape deathmatch"
He never actually stopped doing that after that race.
Ryousuke even comments on it during their first race.
@@SidewaysGts u can see him countersteering a lot more
@@reclaimer0018 "u can see him countersteering a lot more"
Of course- Its also a cartoon. Chop this up to animation "error" and animator flair to look more visually appealing. Theyve pointed out that he continues to steer with less input and relies more on weight shifting.
I was so desensitized to his luck winning his races that I completely overlooked what happened at this race.
The plot armor is thicker than Gorlock the destroyer 😂
And this is why everybody wants to be Kyoichi
simply the VTM nitro detonated at the worst possible time
Races that Takumi won in BS: 1. AE86 vs FC3S Akina (Tire pressure and gutter run); 2. AE86 vs EVO4 Akina (Simulation 3 become Simulation 1 and gutter run) ; 3. AE86 Trueno vs AE86 Levin Turbo (Side curb jump); 4. AE86 vs EVO3 Irohazaka (Powerover); 5.AE86 vs EK9 (Bird flying out); 6. AE86 vs God Hand S2000 (Vomit); 7. AE86 vs AE86 Sedan (Engine 101 Blown)
This is GOLD!!!! Hahahahahahahaha. My exact reaction at that battle. 🤣🤣🤣
That fan wanted Takumi to lose this time since he kept winning
The only actual Takumi lost races are all the not actual race/testing the race like Bunta vs Takumi or the first race test against the Evo 3
that's racing, everything is a part of it.
They actually straight up cut this ending from Battle Stage 2 lol, the race just ends after Takumi's overtake
Takumi is like: uhm ok? I will just go past him I guess
Bro I literally jumped out of the bed WHEN GOD'S HAND LOSES TO TAKUMI BECAUSE OF HIS INSANE PLOT ARMOUR
This was a problem with 4th stage for me overall.
4th stage has some *amazingly* good races- With innovative "street techniques" along the way fitting for initial d. But instead of letting these be the reasons Takumi pulls out a win- They have the guy throw up. Or they have the guy Dodge a squirrel. Or...
Why show us these key moments that SHOULD have been the race deciding moment, only for them not to be- and then to be like "well, hes lucky"
at least its not as bad as 5th stage. 5th stage i found me having to force myself to keep watching
@@doridore1234 Im a huge initial d fan- Tha car in my profile icon is mine. Have had this vehicle for nearly 20 years now.
5th stage is amazingly forgettable. Nearly every race is boring- I vaguely remember the gtr/fc race, and of course remember the final race. The entire rest of the season though? Couldnt tell you what happened without going back and watching.
4th stage, despite my criticism of the "ooo hes lucky" nonsense, actually had a LOT of great moments and great races.
@@SidewaysGts I've actually realized I never watched Initial D all the way through. The last time I did was a few years ago when I got to the 5th stage and basically stopped watching. I forgot all that happened, so I said to myself, "okay, let me rewatch again!"
Did the exact same thing, watched up to the 5th stage, then just stopped lmao
@@doridore1234 At this point i just pretend 5th stage didnt happen
Takumi has unofficially lost 2 races in the series
This is how it is in real life in everything. The winner is good but also very lucky.
Sometimes too much power isn’t enough. All it takes is good karma.
The S2K should have won this one, same reaction
he was so close to being beaten into a race
Remember in race not only skill luck also matters
Takumi is a true racer he knew Toshiya won he out drove him doesnt matter if he did come across the finish line first due the Dr. having to stop.
Ok so what time we have a plot armor?
Takumi has something that no one else has. Plot armor.
His character should have lost several times and only come back stronger; thus making him a better character.
Takumi be like: yay now i can win without enemy
What I never understood about this is scene is that God Hand is driving a S2000, which is a convertible.
Bruh, if it is that hot outside just open the top and let some fresh air in?
Both, this and the Todo School EK9 (the blind attack episode) are the ways of the author to tell us: Takumi actually loses this race, but I'm not willing to write him handling defeat.
Someone:*Prays him to win*
God:we don't do that here.
- What's causing teh gap? oO
Rubberbanding bro! oO
this is gold, very good videomaking
I love Initial D and it'll always hold a place in my heart, but man that plot armour is wack
u guys do know they dont count that as a race
Sad piano music is playing for God Arm, this a genuine Greek tragedy for him
But... Takumi DID lose race. The one against Emperor's leader when he blew his 1st black top 4AG? That was a loss.
In fact many of the fans count this as Takumi's second loss as he wrecked his suspension and would have rendered the car totally non-competitive for the period and despite God Hand suffering from an acid reflux and had to stop, he could still go on thus he would still have won thus making Takumi losing twice.
In the end, it was an endurance race and God Arm was too old for that
That's one reason why initial d started to fall off stage 4 and beyond. Like stage 4 definitely delivered in some aspects but more and more wins just seemed lucky. The episode, blind attack has the same issue where the pro racer only leaves the best line open for Takumi at the end of the race because of a bird or squirrel or something.
Major spoilers below:
And don't even get me started on the final race. He REALLY should have lost that one, especially after going like 30-0 against other racers. He literally was framed to be the Ryosuke and Shinji was framed to be the new Takumi and he still won.
Sometimes, the best character development comes from a lost. I loved seeing Takumi win over and over when he was the underdog but it got much slower to watch when he was the favored racer and just continued to stomp the noobs and only win a few of the toughest races by luck.
I feel like despite it not being said outright, and aside from when he himself thought he lost to an opponent, Takumi lost a lot when he kept switching between the 86’ and the Subaru. They did a fairly good job of showing how someone with his ability to keep a rock steady pace would feel if they suddenly got into a faster car that was easier to drive while being faster.
I know it’s not perfectly analogous but when I play racing games such as the GT series or Forza I get fairly consistent with one vehicle and when I then race against my ghost with a faster, easier to push to the limits car In faster and create a new ghost. Now back in the old car I have to account for the new, faster pace and try to find ways, places to make up time. This keeps going for quite awhile.
I’m saying this because maybe the point of the back and forth with the two cars was a constant losing streak Takumi had to fight against in his head to become better. I think if one were to break down his character you’d come to the conclusion that a real Takumi would have thought he lost more than he ever won.
In like stage 2-3 he lost to an evo, he lost his girlfriend, and his engine 💀
god hand the most intimidating rival in initial much more intimidating than that little turn in the end that copys takumis car
Plot armour
plot armor at its finest
My mother, can't even drive a car watch this episode when she want to turn on ac in my room.

If the big kids and adults can't handle much longer to drifting for long period racing. Sometimes, it happens to everyone who goes into trouble.
God Hand got food poisoning
