THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.

PLEASE DRIVE SAFE AND FOLLOW THE RULES.

(Initial D Fifth Stage)

They are coming.

What's happening?

Why is everyone so excited?

Mako, what do you think?

I'm not sure,

but its traction is quite astonishing.

That NSX...

The exit of this turn has a steep slope.

But he still accelerates
without any hesitation.

FD is indeed in a tough battle. Its speed
is a bit slower than the car in front.

Mr. Hojo's red car
doesn't look happy at all.

But...

That yellow car...

It's laughing.

But I've known for a long time
that the opponent's car is an NSX.

Keisuke and I didn't come
to this race unprepared.

We have our own trump card.

They have passed through
the hairpin turn of the observation deck.

Now they are entering section 4.

The crucial part starts from here...

Is it starting now?

Next, I don't have to worry
about my tires anymore.

Please, FD.

You have to hold on.

Heck!

What's happening in the race now?

Itsuki, calm down.

But I really care about the race,
I can't calm down.

The current situation
should still be the same.

NSX is running away in the front,

FD is chasing from behind, right?

That's right.

But does FD really have a chance to win?

Senior Kenji... What are you talking about?

Didn't you just see it?

The opponent's speed is extraordinary.

And he also leads in this round.

We are certain to win.

Keisuke Takahashi is the uphill
ace driver of the "Project D".

Ta... Takumi is too...

They are in section 4 now.

So far, it's still within my plans.

The key to victory starts here.

(Episode 13: Unexpected Battle)

Matsumoto,

there are some things
that I can only say now.

Initially, I was really hesitant to let
Keisuke be the driver of the "Project D".

Compared to the exceptionally
talented Fujiwara,

there was a period of time
when I didn't think highly of Keisuke.

I think Keisuke must have
noticed this more or less.

Racers can see the differences
between each other no matter what.

So he must have felt anxious.

I didn't want to give
Keisuke special treatment

just because he's my brother.

So, I intentionally kept a distance
when communicating with him.

That's indeed the case.

What I can remember the best

was when we were in Saitama,

Keisuke's shock absorber got damaged
because he skidded on the engine oil on the road.

Damn it!

This is making me furious.

We don't have time
to vent on the guardrail.

The FD got damaged
because of your negligence.

My...

Yes.

At least if it were me, I wouldn't have
crashed because of this little trap.

It was for your arrogance
and carelessness.

Calm down and think about it.

At that time... Before you blamed
the dirty tricks of the opponent,

you scolded Keisuke for his carelessness.

I couldn't help feeling sorry
for him at that time.

He's been very resilient
since he was a child.

Criticizing him helps him grow
more than praising him.

From then,

Keisuke's eyes changed.

I made Keisuke participate in the special
training where he had to achieve a set time.

It was a training method I was
very passionate about in the past.

Just blindly accelerating doesn't
really teach you any skills.

It not only distracts you but
also increases the strain on the car.

On the other hand, throttle control
training can make him think a lot,

and he can make more discoveries.

Only when throttle control is perfected
can one truly approach the limit.

The section time has been measured.

For Go, this must be nearing
his maximum speed.

No one in the "Sidewinder"
can keep up with this speed.

Keisuke Takahashi is really good.

There is a lot of audience tonight,

but few can understand
the principles behind it.

The current state of the battle
may seem evenly matched,

but actually, these two have been performing
highly difficult tire management.

Professionals would love...

such extremely difficult battles,
but they often appear boring to viewers.

Fujiwara is a perfect example.

His throttle control skill could
be said to be professional level.

Exactly.

Keisuke was able to grow because of
his competitive spirit towards Fujiwara.

Whether it's pouring rain, heavy fog,
or even when he's sick,

he never missed a day of practicing
on the Akagi mountain road.

It's been said before those who can
maintain their passion are the geniuses.

And Keisuke is just that kind of person.

The relationship between
Fujiwara and Keisuke is quite good.

Matsumoto, let me tell you honestly,

in this month or so,

no, to be precise,
in the last fifteen days,

Keisuke has entered an unbelievable realm.

An unbelievable realm?

He can match the time I set exactly.

Even if there are external
factors that affect the speed,

he is able to make adjustments
and match the time I set.

There must be an accurate sense
of time built in Keisuke's body now.

Even the prime me won't
be able to beat Keisuke now.

Because I have gone
through the same training,

I can understand how amazing he is.

On the long Akagi mountain road,
the time error is less than one second.

It can be said to be a miracle.

Considering all these,

Keisuke is now facing
some kind of breakthrough.

The training I have planned

cultivated a street racer
with great potential.

He is now progressing
at an astonishing rate.

This is absolutely the most
delightful "miscalculation" ever.

He finally made it to the last race...

The trump card hidden in my hand

is Keisuke himself.

Kogashiwa, what do you think?

The style of the NSX...

All I can say is that
he drives quite smoothly.

Stepping hard on the gas pedal,
using the tires thoroughly.

And from the movement and route,
it can be seen that he's very serious.

That's what I think too.

But why

is Keisuke Takahashi's FD
still close behind him?

What is going on?

This is not what I expected.

You will have a 15-second advantage.

Is 15 seconds enough?

It's more than enough.

Mr. Kubo, who do you think I am?

How could I possibly lose
to those racing brats from Gunma?

It's so annoying.

Damn, I don't like this.

(Initial D Fifth Stage)

(Initial D Fifth Stage)

Her legs are so long and pretty.

And she has a pleasant smell on her.

Miss Mako is truly a mature woman.

I really didn't expect
that guy to last until now.

It's surprising, but it makes
the race way more interesting.

Go Hojo couldn't defeat
his opponent in one attack.

This "Project D" is better than I thought.

It's almost the finish line
after this hairpin turn.

For the "Sidewinder", this situation
must have taken them by surprise.

They probably didn't expect
a second or third round.

This means that Eiji Kubo's
tactics have a mistake.

Something unexpected could happen now.

It must be.

What did you say?

How could such a thing happen?

Did you get the section time?

Yes.

This is...

Impossible...

That FD car couldn't possibly
keep up with this speed.

Did I make a mistake in my calculations?

No, it's absolutely impossible.

How could the FD3S perform like this?

Damn it.

What the hell happened?

I was perfect when I went full throttle.

I didn't make any mistakes...

Why are you here now?

Why can't I shake you off?

Why can you catch up?

Our opponent formed an information team
from the first race in Kanagawa.

This shows that the "Sidewinder" wanted to have
an information war with us from the start.

The tactics thought out
by the wise strategist, Eiji Kubo.

Why didn't they work?

I think it's because Keisuke formed
a unique style in his daily training.

It greatly surpassed Kubo's estimation.

The sense that Keisuke developed in special
training can be applied to many things.

Even though he didn't sprint
with all his might during practice,

he can still clearly know how the car
will run when sprinting with full force.

Ever since we embarked
on our expedition to Kanagawa,

he hasn't fully opened
the throttle during practice.

This way, he can grasp more information.

And it can also improve efficiency
and make the car adjust faster.

So that's how it is.

Our opponent has an expert
who is good at analyzing data.

If we don't seriously hide our strength,
we will be seen through immediately.

So do your best at critical moments,
at other times just adapt randomly.

As long as our speed is irregular,

it will be hard for them to
calculate our combat power.

Not to mention that even if Keisuke runs
casually now, he is still amazingly fast.

I think even Kubo

wouldn't think that road racing can
actually cultivate such a great driver.

It's really unexpected.

Even if they notice that Keisuke
is controlling the speed,

but they have no data
at all about his limits.

In terms of information warfare,
it can be said that we are all tied.

Keisuke is really amazing.

I see, I got it.

The first round of
the uphill race is over.

This result is really surprising.

My brother didn't shake
off the opponent, right?

Which means they're going
to have the second round.

Yes.

That would be fine.

He should have stopped thinking now.

His mind should be blank.

He still has time to make a comeback.

Tactics and dignity.

It'd be better for him to get
rid of these annoying shackles.

So that's what you meant?

This could remind him of
the most basic things he owns.

That should do it.

Let this mountain road pursuit

return to the origin.

Decide the race with the simplest thing.

I'm really sorry.

You don't need to apologize.

The car is in good condition.

Based on my feeling, I should
have performed well on this run.

Isn't that right?

You're absolutely right.

Your time in section 4 was about
2 seconds faster than the current record.

Right?

I'm quite in tune with it.

I haven't lost yet. It's just
the opponent is a bit tricky.

I'll have to pick myself up now.

I have to regain my fighting spirit.

Keisuke, are you okay?

I'm ready at any time.

I'm going to give it my all
in the second run.

If there is a third run,
I'll definitely lose.

Although you sound a bit dramatic,
you seem quite happy.

I am very happy.

I'm excited from head to toe right now.

This may be the happiest race for me
in all races of the "Project D" so far.

Ready! Five seconds to go.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

GO!

There can't be a third round.

If there is, we will definitely lose.

But... I'm truly amazed that
you've grown this much,

Keisuke.

My palms are sweating from anxiety.

No matter how I look at it,
our situation is incredibly adverse.

I've always thought that Keisuke Takahashi
was a great street racer.

But his current level has
completely surpassed our expectations.

Yes.

Didn't I tell you?

The "Project D" dual aces will not lose.

But...

After a long time of turbo operation,
the car will lose power due to overheating.

The longer the race, the more
disadvantageous it is for FD, right?

Keisuke Takahashi knows this the best.

Although I'm not sure where, they will
probably speed up in the latter half.

Yes.

Here they come.

It's really thrilling to watch.

Keisuke Takahashi's "High-Speed Sprint",
which has defeated countless experts,

is he finally going to
use it in the last race?

I have no idea what the final result will be,
nor can I imagine what will happen.

Because the two racing now are both
racers who are risking their lives for speed.

He is clearly holding back his power.

He isn't pushing to the limit.

Yet he is still so fast.

His overall speed was extremely high.

That's amazing.

Is he such a skilled driver?

I suppose I would have to be following
him like now to realize this.

Come think of it, his car
seems to run very smoothly.

I am indeed impressed.

Is it possible for someone
to reach this state in a race?

When viewed from the outside,
would my NSX look like that too?

I am drawn to him.

I am attracted to his smooth rhythm.

I become synced with him...

Come to think of it,
I still don't understand.

In the timed race held by car dealers,
many people drive the FD3S.

I have also seen some FDs modified
like race cars, customized for timed races.

I believe I fully understand
the pros and cons of that car.

That's why I was confident enough
to modify an NSX that could beat it.

It's really hard for me to accept this.

What do you think, president?

All I can say is that there is
no absolute in winning or losing.

We've indeed been outplayed
in terms of information gathering,

But it's still within my expectations.

To be on the safe side, I used
higher data for tactical consideration.

We are not fools.

Even if we can't win by 15 seconds,
our car is definitely superior to an FD.

Indeed, events that could never happen
on a racetrack can occur in a mountain race.

This indicates that the other
driver is also well prepared.

We haven't lost yet.

Now it's time for
our ace racer to counterattack.

As long as we get through the second run,
we are sure to win.

By then, we will have
an overwhelming advantage.

That exhilarating feeling of his
will disappear somewhere.

He will switch to battle mode
at some point,

just like I did in the first run,
exerting all my explosiveness to sprint.

If my NSX can't keep up with him,

the race will end at that moment.

Where is it?

Where will you make the move?
