Initial D: Third Stage

Initial D: Third Stage (劇場版 頭文字D, 2001) — a theatrical anime film you can watch online on iFILM. Based on Shuichi Shigeno's manga and directed by Noboru Mitsusawa, the film closes out Takumi Fujiwara's high school years in the mountain-pass racing saga. Finals are coming. The runs on Gunma's passes are almost over.

Two scores need settling first. Emperor's Sudo Kyoichi beat Takumi only because his engine died — that rematch has been waiting. Kogashiwa Kai shows up next, son of the man who spent years chasing Takumi's father Bunta. Meanwhile Ryosuke Takahashi is dangling a slot on the Kengai Racing Team. Shinichiro Miki voices Takumi. The film moves faster than the TV series and puts the races front and center — exactly what fans of Initial D came for. Stream Initial D: Third Stage (2001) on iFILM.
