I think MF Ghost CGI animation is combination between Initial D : Final Stage and Initial D : Legend. I'm also excited and worried at the same time about MF Ghost anime. The least thing I hope that there will be Eurobeat. This is tense.
I'd say the reason why some of the scree shots look like flash animations is that the anime is at a very early stage, considering the release is in another year
The only reason why I don't want them to mess this anime up is cuz I don't want it to ruin initial D's reputation tbh I wouldn't want to see pple getting pissed off and shit
Initial D will remain a legend so I don't think it would affect much. More likely people will be mad about it because it doesn't live up to to same standard.
@@Carlos.Rivera i mean yes but no i think it was pretty cool but i think its a bit overkill but tbh how realistic do you want an anime to get anyways tbh compared to other sports anime i think initial d is the minimum
Meanwhile here I am with a book manuscript that's basically "Initial D but in America". Instead of a teenager, living in the Gunma prefecture, delivering tofu in an AE86 Toyota Trueno, during the 90s...it’s a teenager, living in West Virginia, delivering pizza in an AE88 Toyota Corolla GT-S post-COVID.
I hope this shit doesn't inflate the price of the gt86 because im saving to buy one and it won't be cool if the value of them gets high like 40k€. But im excited for it
@@BboyVReck thanks, i cannot have it rn because im still underaged and i can't have my license but im almost there. and the prices of the gt86 are still high here in Portugal but i belive it will drop a lil bit
Nah, as long as they're in production you can still get them for a fair price. If they're gonna be more expensive for no reason just suck it in and get another car, there are other good cars in that price range. Honestly just test drive multiple cars when choosing and choose one that you like how it drives.
To me it was rather boring. Some scenes were fun to read, some of Kanata's overtakes were really well done in my opinion and shown almost like those from the initial d manga, but i found moments like this very rare. The plot is a little dull, characters seem generic, and some of the art is really lazy.
Back in the days, the animation and CGI was not the best, but what made the cover up? *Eurobeat!* I don't care about the animation and CGI at all, as long as there is some good ost cover up...
I read a couple volumes of the manga and my hopes arent high. MF Ghost has a takumi problem just like Initial D, the main character is just too good, but its even worse. In Initial D there was at least the exuse of Akina being takumis home course and it was downhill so low horsepower didnt make much of a difference. But in MF Ghost race course is half uphill and half downhill, on the uphills the little 86 manages to keep up with supercars making two or three times the power, and on the downhill takumi 2.0 overtakes literaly everybody. In the first race! like how are we supposed to build up from that? What cars does this guy have to race against for there to be some sort of tension. I stoped reading very quickly because I just got bored, I knew that no matter what happened the main character would win. Initial D differed a decent bit from the manga and I hope that MF Ghost will as well because Im not very impressed with it.
It's because he was fearless, he didn't slow down on the foggy part of the course where most racers slow down, but I do agree, it is kind of bullshitty.
What that guy said was pretty lopsided. MF Ghost is actually pretty good. You have to look back to Initial D and compare. Initial D was nothing but a godly kid who has natural talent in racing with close to no aim but just to drive and deliver tofu for his dad somehow finding the passion to race and become an actual racer at that point. He had no ties to being a hashiriya but then became an actual god on the touge. Almost every episode is about Takumi honing his skills and becoming quicker as the legend as he was together with Keisuke being his "ghost" opponent. MF Ghost is totally different. MF Ghost talks about a kid who has fully been trained to utilize underpowered car by the legendary Takumi as a razorblade like weapon who could eat up big names and faster cars with just a fraction of the power. Also, unlike Initial D who din't have an aim for the protagonist till he finds one, MF Ghost has one early on and they stuck to that. Kanata (The protagonist of MF Ghost) is in Japan looking for his lost dad and he's just absorbed into the world of street racing which is legalized in the manga by the Japanese authorities and also sanctioned by none other than the Takahashi Enterprise which the whole scene is ran by Keisuku and Fumihiro as GM. If you look at it in the eyes of just pure racing action, yea, MF Ghost might be trash but if you're looking at it as a whole, MF Ghost isn't bad.
The protagonist doesn’t gaf about his dad anymore, and no one even really no knows what drives him. And the whole honed to drive an underpowered car thing degrades into just straight plot armor when the MC just blows past super cars in a straight line. No GT86 is doing that. At least with Intial D you could credit the touge roads for the AE86 be able to keep up mechanically. People are probably going to be disappointed by the show, people already are by the manga. Kind of a bummer because it would’ve been cool to have MF Ghost push car culture forward and spark interest in a new generation same way initial d had. But I guess the original show will always be there
The story is pretty bad and so is the art itself, the trailer has really shit looking cars which are a straight downgrade from the CGI in Legend. The action yeah obv sucks because a basically bare bones stock GT86 overtaking tuned hypercars on straights happens. The team on the anime is gonna have to change a lot of the story to stray away from the manga to keep a somewhat positive score.
I read the manga and quite enjoy it maybe because there is so little modern racing or street racing anime out there. So seeing ghost get an anime adaptation is good as I get to see more cars racing and especially modern race cars like the modern Civic, the Ferrari 488 Lamborgini Hurricane etc, and just in general more cars out of the JDM market, I do love JDM cars but in general we haven't seen any cars from Europe or America at all in anime focused in racing. To me just quite refreshing to see just new cars and different cars too all in one series participating in a race. Like the Fiat 500 which Lupin the 3rd uses which is not even a racing anime/series.
or even the original BMW Z4 passing by in Chuunibyou Demo Koi Ga Shitai : Take On Me, which is no way in any shape or form is a racing anime series either
Ｉam a Japanese Initial D fan. Unfortunately, this work has a very low reputation among the old fans in Japan. There are many reasons for this, including the fact that the world of the future in which the story takes place is too cheap, and that Mr SIGENO is more obsessed with drawing girls' bodies than cars. The biggest failing is that the characters in Initial D are treated so poorly and pathetically. Especially Takumi, who in this story retired due to an accident before he could become a professional driver. Fans who loved the characters are outraged by the story, but those opinions are disguised by stealth marketing. Some people seem to think MFG is good, but various data show that in reality, more people are in despair. To use an analogy, it is similar to the response that occurred with Star Wars ep8. It's very sad to say this, but I think it's best not to get our hopes up.
This car anime has a Lamborghini Huracán, Ferrari 488 GTB, Alfa Romeo 4C, Lotus Exige, and a Toyota GT86 as well as a Nissan GTR (R35) and I think the blue car is an Alpine A110.
I hope that the anime is better than the manga because the manga is slow and the storyline is confusing. If they clean up the story and give it some better pacing, I don't care how unrealistic the racing is. It's time we got a new car anime.
The manga is not really that good because the author didn't refer to racing drivers like in Initial D but I hope that when MFG gets animated they'll adapt it with passion and add on the source material.
I have a serious problem, on the car windows, everything is opaque. You can't see anything inside. Who is the studio in charge of the animation and the 3D CGI animation?
Lets goooooo! They need to divert from ALL THE COMMENTARY during the races. Some is ok but there was too much in the manga. Other than that its pretty good. Not the best one by a longshot, but I still get really excited every time new translations come up. Also, Kanata is way too OP, but strangely I'm fine with it. Anyone else feel that way? It's like watching Hamilton in junior formulas.
I hope it's not on Netflix!!! I'm excited for this. Initial D, Wangan Midnight and now... MF GHOST. I hope they'll put 2020s Eurobeat and some Wangan Midnight inspired music. It's different to Jojo's music like Roundabout and I Want You!
If it doesn't have Eurobeat it's not a true sequel saying that if you read the initial d manga it's got some differences between the anime such as at the end of the final stage in the manga the 86 was scrapped but in anime it was kept so who knows maybe there's hope for MF ghost yet
also how are they going to get Lamborghini or even Ferrari's license for the anime? Especially with Ferrari where their brand image really matters to them. So I guess they'll just call it a 488?
You can already see it in the screenshots, the Ferrari and the Alpha have a fake logo and such. Don't forget that they also didn't have the Toyota licence for First Stage. Toyota Tureno, gone but not forgotten...
It will never be like Initial D, but at least we get something. As long as MF Ghost gains some popularity, my FR-S value will not drop too much haha.
Oh, got an frs? Nice man
Fellow GT86 owner here, fingers crossed. Hahaha
If MF Ghost becomes popular AND uses eurobeat, then the value of the FR-S/GT86 will rise and eurobeat will make a comeback.
Cool, hopefully i can buy a Gen 4 Supra for a bargain
@@kyezun that sucks the gt86 rising in price atleast
Honestly, I’m glad it’s happening. We haven’t had any new car racing anime for sometime
Let’s hope it isn’t boring as the manga

It's going to dissapointing however they can redeem themselves by adding eurobeat.
D R O N E S
Though I wouldn’t mind Ferraris drifting to eurobeat 👀
manga is actually a decent read, although the story didnt interest me, the racing is fun to read
I guess, I found the racing a little boring. Hopefully the animation can highten it up a bit.

In the manga he was on last place
Thats called plot armor, agreed with you.
WOW! Thank you for the announcement, that's really useful!
Did they have to choose the slowest car on the road? haha
There better be actual eurobeat instead of the music we got in the Legends trilogy.

This better have Eurobeat, because if we get the J Rock shit ISTG
FRS/GT86/BRZ prices will be skyrocket

oh come on I had plans on buying this car in a few years but now the prices will just go wild
Is the background footage nfs underground?
DINGDINGDING WE HAVE A WINNER!!
Very nice
I watched Initial D five times. I just want another Initial D anime.
A genre is revived "cars"
lets hope its better than the manga....
Still waiting for our Bunta prequel
I feel like its gonna be disappointment if they follow manga, if they change it up a lot, it maybe a hit
I hope that the anime is better than the manga because the manga is slow and the storyline is confusing. If they clean up the story and give it some better pacing, I don't care how unrealistic the racing is. It's time we got a new car anime.
Cars look good so far hope the character look good like in the manga or have intial season 1 art style.
I like the manga, highly recommend it.
Much needed!
About time bro
It’s not a sequel to initial d it may have the initial d characters but is just a different story
m8 do you mind telling us what background music you used?
It's the track "Worry" from the Initial D First Stage Sound Files ;)
The manga is not really that good because the author didn't refer to racing drivers like in Initial D but I hope that when MFG gets animated they'll adapt it with passion and add on the source material.

They need to divert from ALL THE COMMENTARY during the races. Some is ok but there was too much in the manga.
Other than that its pretty good. Not the best one by a longshot, but I still get really excited every time new translations come up.
Also, Kanata is way too OP, but strangely I'm fine with it. Anyone else feel that way? It's like watching Hamilton in junior formulas.
don't care how it looks or how good it iz. JUST GIVE IT TO ME
they better not drop the ball on this
I hope it's not on Netflix!!! I'm excited for this. Initial D, Wangan Midnight and now... MF GHOST. I hope they'll put 2020s Eurobeat and some Wangan Midnight inspired music. It's different to Jojo's music like Roundabout and I Want You!
I tried reading the manga a few years ago but then forgot about it
As long as we have European cars getting represented in Anime form, it's fine by me. Trust me, I drive a Ferrari 488 GTB in NFS Heat.

Although a sequel with bunta is more what I would have hoped for and how bunta became such well known racer and the story of the 86
I hope they ReWrite this Story Because if they don't its going to be trash.
Let's hope it have eurobeat
It must have been a 2jz swap ft-86 to beat these exotic rivals because if it was an fa20d it wouldn't last 2 episodes
Now I have an excuse to force myself to watch initial D, I always stopped in the first season
To be fair the first season was the best. The later episodes get way too serious and repetitive.
