Remember me? Relive Takumi Fujiwara's journey from tofu delivery boy to street-racing legend in an all-new, large-sized, 2-in-1 print edition of the series that made Japanese street racing into a worldwide phenomenon. Contains a new translation of Initial D Vol. 1-2. Takumi Fujiwara spends a lot of time behind the wheel. His tofu delivery job sends him racing down the treacherous roads of Mount Akina, and without even realizing it, Takumi has mastered racing techniques that take most drivers a lifetime to learn. Of course, none of his friends realize this. They're all too busy watching the Akina Speed Stars, the local street racing team. When the legendary Red Suns show up to challenge the Speed Stars, the rival team obsesses over a phantom car, the Trueno Eight-Six, seen racing through the mountain roads. Who is the driver, and will they take on the dangerous challenge? This edition is still running in the '90s but features a refreshed translation and lettering for the 2020s, as well as a special large size. Review: Great book series - I have loved the show and game as a kid. Now as being older and reading more the books have brought back the adventures of Initial D. Much more detailed in the book series. Review: Good book - It was a good read, worth the money.

A fantastic slice of '90s manga life
Initial D Omnibus Vol. 1 immediately grabbed my attention and never let up, I finished the entire volume in three days! At its core it's a drift racing manga with a shonen slant, but it's also very slice of life and the characters are extremely likable, especially since I had a few street racing friends in the '90s. Being a (wannabe) gearhead is certainly no prerequisite, but for me this manga felt like a nostalgic trip to a bygone era. Another great feature of this omnibus is the glossary, which explains many of the street racing terms and even author insider gags that may go over reader's heads on the first reading. For me, these explanations made the manga much more enjoyable on the second reading. Critiques? Well, the paper stock is flimsy. But this is how print production works, it's an omnibus and you're not getting 400+ pages of manga at this price any other way. If this were a massively oversized (and overpriced) hardcover I may find room to complain, but not with what I'm getting here. If you're looking to dive into some classic manga at an affordable price, Initial D Omnibus Volume 1 is an easy suggestion. I've immediately started on a second reading, something I rarely do with manga. Bring on Volume 2!

Initial d with a little bit of damage
I just got it like 10-15 minutes ago and when i opened the package i was wondering what was sticking out of the book but it’s was the first 16 pages of the book and it’s wasn’t glued in to the book the top half of the pages was cut off like a printing issue happened to the book but i would give 5 stars if it wasn’t messed up but it’s alright i guess but you can even see the glue on the 16 pages it came with minor damage and you can’t even read the top half of the first 16 pages

Golpes y rayaduras pequeñas.
El manga llegó bien empacado, el embajale pudo ser mejor pero llegó bien, ahora, el manga llegó con las esquinas dobladas, lomo golpeado entre otros detalles similares, eso me da a entender que el problema no fue el embalaje, sino el producto desde bodega ya estaba dañado. Si no te molestan estos detalles, dale sin miedo, pero si eres un coleccionista de mangas y te gusta recibir tus productos sin golpes, rayaduras o detalles, no te lo recomiendo.

Great Condition
Used to read scanlations of Initial D a decade back - so I’m glad to get an omnibus with two volumes. The packaging was good, the book arrived in good condition. Looking forward to the other omnibuses as they release
