When did /o/ turned against Initial D?

When was the last time OP wasn't retarded, fake and gay?

>posts version tire cuck management system
poser

when 4chan's average user shifted from "weeaboo outsider not tolerated on other websites" to "political outsider not tolerated on other websites". containment boards are a myth

>>28520148
Yeah this place is just "edgy" facebook boomers and their mixed race sprog all posting from trailer parks and section 8 apartments.

whereas initial d became "edgy" ig zoomers faggot larping drifto when they just garage queen their car

>>28520181
Yeah only zoomers like a boomer property. That totally checks out, and what's more, the world is only made up of Americans.

The manga & the anime ended Anon.
The hype eventually dies out.
Don't be sad it's over.
Be glad we enjoyed so many memes that came from it.

>>28520181
Don't tell me that's a fucking zoomer, it's not fair I thought we were all poor and in this together
I fucking hate nepo babies

>>28520752
With Shigeno it is never over.

>>28520772
The new series is actually fairly decent.
I know a lot of people shit on it, and yes it doesn't quite have the same charm as the original.
But it's still good.
I'd say it has less memes/ass pulls and more actual racing.

>>28520128 (OP)
Sometime after 2015.
/o/ used to be a fun board to discuss any form of automotive media.

>>28520796
Pic isn't even out yet.
MF Ghost ended and Shigeno is Subarus bitch now.

>>28520815
Yes, the normie election tourists and stormfronters never left after '15 because the site allows free speech. It used to be about doing illegal shit with clapped-out cars for giggles, now it's some weird social hierarchy delusion shit. There used to always be an initial d or eurobeat thread up.

>>28520928
Around New Year’s, I think.

>>28520901
i played a lot of ver3 in the arcades, and in theory as long as you dont hit the wall you can go as fast as the car can go

ver4 introduced tms in its new physics engine (i think it was more official in 5) where if you turn the car too much, despite not hitting the wall, you will slow down. this also threw away a lot of tech from 2 and 3

>>28520128 (OP)
*turn
You fucking pajeet faggot ESL cunt

>>28520965
Ver 4 physics were anything but realistic though. It's like you're driving on ice the entire time. Ver 5 is the best when it comes to having realism, especially if you like driving simulators because of the tire wear system. Ver 5 is overshadowed by Ver 8 though when it comes to popularity.

>>28521047
i never said anything about realism. my point is it's just not a fun way to go about an arcade game when you think about the genre at the time

>>28521173
shigeno was always a hack. initial d is a battle shonen with cars, its carried by eurobeat and the vibe, which is why it falls off with 4th stage

>>28521406
>I am a French-speaking redneck larping as a frog
FTFY. Va te foutre.

>>28521465
At least I'm not a Jeet.

When black ppl started drifting

>>28521453
It's not even that. Initial D was a seinen romance series masquerading as a "battle shonen with cars". And romance was very much Shingeo's main focus. Even when Initial D moved away from it, he found a way to bring it back. Then later gave it more focus in MF Ghost.

If you check out his other work pre and post Initial D you can see the romance all throughout. Hell even Tunnel Nuketara SkyBlue which is the closest to Initial D (and can even be kind of considered prototype Initial D) is mostly about a love triangle.

>>28521570
Protype initial d MC looks like a fused version between Takumi and Nakazato.

>>28521976
>says esl anon who thought initial d was irrelevant to zoomers
No you stupid faggot, you tried making the claim Initial D, a property much older than you is a zoomer property. You're not the main character, you're not sigma, you're what the kids call omega, ohio, mid etc. Narcissistic zoomers like you should be ran through with a rusty sword.

Nta but initial d is an ip since it's a lot more than just the manga or anime.

>>28522062

Yes, which is correct you ESL shitskin. Initial D encompasses a manga, anime, video games and more.

Hate to break it to you, my mystery meat zoomer friend but you are not bussin'. You are not litty. You are not the main character. You're a prison gay incel failed normalfag on a nasty normalfag board full of white claw boomers and disgruntled lawn mowing mexicans.

How powerful is it? I don't know shit about recent 911s, but I was smoked last month by a recent 911 which looked quite similar. Do you have other pics with this kind of cool scenery but in better quality? Kinda like pic related if possible, though I'm not a fan of the countryside.

which way /o/?

>>28522472
I need to visit better locales with it desu. It's decently fast, Porsche claims 4.1s 0-60 with the PDK but I think that's a little underrated honestly, and the stock tires were total heaps of shit. Just threw some nice UHP summer Contis on it and it's got loads more grip, not quite Cup 2 grip but pretty damn close for a tire that won't kill you in the wet.

Supposedly you can emulate some of the arcade games on pc but I haven't had any luck with it

>>28522964
It can depend on your video card
If you an Intel card it won't work. It either has to be AMD or NVIDIA graphic card.
>>28522473
Is "The Arcade" the weird cross over with Pop Team Epic characters again?

>>28522964
I can't reach the teknoparrot website for now. But from what I remember on the website about the Initial D arcade stage past 6 to be able to emulate them you need to have either an AMD video card or NVIDIA, but it is not compatible with an Intel card.

>>28522651
Not only that, but even the most basic shitboxes would have a sporty version, even when it wasn't really fast or even that different from a base model one, there was a push to make young kids into enthusiasts, nowadays everything's just blobs with wannabe offroader trims

OP here, it seems there is quite confusion in the thread. I was away most of the thread.
1. I made the thread in the first place to take about Initial D in general because I just like it. I like the game in the OP that's why I use it as the OP image, but
2: I'm stuck phone posting because I'm without my laptop for an unknown on period of time which can result into typing mistakes.
3. I admitted being a Frog from Quebec/French Canadian, but I'm not brown, nor a Zoomer, but enough about myself let's just get back on the main topic: I just want to talk about the Initial D IP as a general so it can be just casually discussing the anime, the games, the manga or just simply about the card in the series
5. Stop being so schizo about it.

>>28523037
Stupid auto correction can make mistakes:
*Just simply about the card in the series*

>>28522954
Tfw I will never get to live in Quebec and have fat bottomed French hurritage women sit on my face...

>>28523046
I don't really like dating apps but on Tinder most of them are filled with trashy tattoos.

Bought this game from Play-Asia in 2012, but I barely got to play IDAS ver.2 at cinema Biermans before it got removed from the arcade salon. It also had the Star Wars Racer Arcade game, but both games had defect issues most of the time. That's probably why they change them for other games, but IDC about the new arcade game they replaced them with.

Could the guy who said Initial D is romance manga explain how? I dunno it didn't seem very romantic to me. I mean Iketani lets 'em go. Dagumi gets cucked by a merc, and uhh what Ryosuke gets in a death battle with an incel or some shit? I dunno doesn't seem too romantic to me.

>>28523269
OP here. I didn't mean to talk about myself personally. It just got derailed because my English is not good, now move along about this and the auto correct of my phone created mistakes too.

I just want firstly to talk about Initial D
In general.
(I'm just phone posting because my laptop is supposed to get repaired and it sucks since I don't know when I'll get it back and don't have a PC tower in my room.)

>>28523276
Most of first stage is just Takumi trying to impress some chick who's a whore on the side. Then there's Itsuki getting dropped by Wataru's sister when her ex shows up. The show is full of romance drama.

>>28523527
What Shigeno did to Kyoko made me realise he was just a miserable bastard who wanted his characters to be so too.

>>28523531
Kyoko didn't deserve what Keisuke did to her.
>Spent a whole day with her and using his own bro's car only to tell her to never come back seeing her for his future races
It is what pissed me off the most about 4th Stage. But Keisuke vs Godfoot was the best race in 4th Stage in my opinion.

>>28523565
Fuck Keisuke. I still don't get why the hell Shigeno had to suddenly make him the 2nd MC. Keisuke's first appearance is him getting smoked by Takumi when he's simply trying to get home and annoyed that this yellow car is blocking him. Compared to a fighting manga he's the equivalent of the first stupid jobber who gets rekt in the first two chapters. The faggot who got humiliated for a tank of fuel suddenly being pushed to Takumi's rival and having everyone suck his cock absolutely ruined every stage after 3rd.

>>28523606
In 3rd Stage it felt like it was implying that both Takumi and Keisuke would end up getting a revenge race after a whole year but it didn't happen because the last opponent turned out to be Shinji.

>that is a classic car what are they called?

>>28520128 (OP)
I used to like initial D but, not anymore. In hindsight fist stage was exciting because we weren't familiar with the formula yet and the audience was just being introduced to touge racing and it seemed cool and interesting sure, Takumi was already a great racer but, it still felt like he could lose at any moment especially when he raced Mako Sato. The series had such fucking shit character writing it was so dull and uninspired with the Iketani fumbling Mako and Takumi relationship with Natsuki, it was just really retarded and you could tell the publisher was like "hey, this is a sienen magazine. Add some relationships and personal growth for your characters outside of racing" and the guy either couldn't be assed or was just a shit character writer (I mean Takumi is a mary sue who wins every race, that's literally all there is to his character). Which brings me onto the last and perhaps most crucial point, Takumi never ever loses a single race, A big thing that made me like the show initially was him testing his limits and the chance that he could loose, it was kinda like watching a sports game but, that never happens because I'm willing to bet that Takumi is just a shitty stand in OC the writer dreamt up because someone made fun of his clapped out corolla.

Oh and I hated when he joined project D, it just took out all of the feeling and emotion of the races. In Akina he was racing to defend the pride of the Akina racers from the redsuns, night kids etc but, in project D he basically becomes a Redsun and it's nowhere near as interesting to watch.

>>28524699
>Maybe we'll get a Stage 2 who knows
It's dead Jim. Shigeno spent a shitload of time presenting new characters and settings that 100% seemed he intended to piggyback the story on, like the GR86 girl or the plans to extend MFG to 7 races, only to release a "10 years later" exposition dump for the last chapter. He just lost motivation to keep going with it and rushed a half-assed ending to give MFG some closure.
Even still it was better than the dumpster fire that was ID's ending.

>>28527448
Nice throw but how do you resist the urge to not just go full send oversteer into those turns at that hour? That's what I did when I had to drive every night and morning.
