THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.

PLEASE DRIVE SAFE AND FOLLOW THE RULES.

(Initial D 2nd Stage)

(Episode 11: The Broken Seal)

Thank you for visiting.

Hey.

Itsuki.

Itsuki.

S... Senior Kenji.

Itsuki, what are you daydreaming about?

I...

He's been like this for a while.

I think he must've got it from Takumi.

No...

This is...

Kazumi, what's wrong? Don't you have to work today?

Kazumi?

Sorry to bother you while you're working.

No... it's okay.

When do you finish work today?

Huh?

I'm free for the rest of the day.

I was thinking, we could meet up after you finish work.

I'll kill time somewhere nearby before you finish work.

Just... wait for me.

Two minutes. No... one minute. Wait for me.

Boss.

For some personal reasons, I need to leave work early today.

What happened?

Where are you going?

Itsuki.

Sorry, Takumi. I'll leave the rest to you.

Kazumi, get in the car.

Is this really okay?

It's fine. Just get in.

He's such a handful.

I'll overlook it this time.

Who was that girl? Itsuki's new girlfriend?

I guess so.

How could it be...

Didn't he just get dumped?

He already has a new girl?

What happened to the "lonely racer"?

Is it really okay for you to leave work early?

It's okay.

Don't worry about it.

Although I might get scolded by the boss tomorrow,

it doesn't matter at all.

I've been thinking about Kazumi since early morning.

I can't wait to see her.

I didn't expect her to come looking for me.

I'm really happy.

So, work is not important at all.

I've been very attached to my brother since I was a kid.

I see.

It seems like you two still get along very well.

Whether when my brother got obsessed with cars,

or when he went racing, I was always with him.

Back then I'd spend all my salary on my brother's car modifications.

That's nice.

I don't have anything I want to do.

I just thought that since he likes cars so much, it would be fun to join him.

But that's not right.

He has his life, and I have mine.

I have to find what I want to do.

It's frustrating.

I still haven't found what I really want to do.

But I will find my dream.

I've never had friends who I could talk about these things with.

So, I really feel I'm lucky to have met you, Itsuki.

Me too, I'm lucky to have met you too, Kazumi.

FUJIWARA TOFU STORE

Deliberately sealed the horsepower...

Why would dad do that?

A racing engine?

I don't understand any of these.

Anyway... I just lack these things.

It's getting dark.

Let's find a place to eat, and I'll drive you back to the hotel.

Actually, I don't want to go back.

Really? You don't want to...

Something unpleasant happened at the hotel today.

What happened?

There's a very annoying senior at the hotel.

He blamed his mistakes on me,

and reported to the manager.

I couldn't help but...

I've decided, I will stay with you until you feel better.

You can stay out as late as you want.

Right here.

Gently step on the brake, then go straight in.

Okay.

Itsuki, you're doing quite well.

I think so too.

Kazumi, you're a better teacher than Takumi.

Because I often sat next to my brother and watched him drive. And he taught me.

I just memorized it somehow.

I see. Once you get your driver's license, your driving will definitely improve.

I'm not that good.

I just "talk the talk".

I dare not drive on the mountain road myself.

You don't have to conquer the mountain road.

That's just one of the joys of driving.

Seriously, you should try getting a driver's license.

Once you get your hands on the wheel, you will find a different world.

You should take driving lessons, and then go for the driving test.

Perhaps you will gain something from it.

If you step on the accelerator, and turn the steering wheel yourself,

you can go anywhere you want.

Cars are really interesting.

FUJIWARA TOFU STORE

You're the only one I don't want to lose against.

I will challenge you in a short time.

I have to accept it, don't I?

This race...

Itsuki, are you asleep?

No...

Actually, until just now, I was thinking about quitting and returning to Saitama.

But now, I've decided not to quit.

Giving up is easy,

but then you just keep repeating the same thing.

Takumi, good morning.

Itsuki.

Well... I was with you from yesterday till this morning.

If anyone asks, you tell them this, okay?

You... didn't go home all night?

Yes.

Were you with Kazumi?

Yes.

Why are you blushing?

Are you having any weird thoughts?

We just went for a drive, okay?

And we slept in the car.

But... that's not really okay.

After all, Kazumi is a girl.

But Kazumi said she didn't want to go back.

Staying with her is a man's duty, right?

Is that so?

I don't really understand.

I had a great time yesterday.

Kazumi and I talked about a lot of things.

We became closer than before.

It feels like I'm dreaming.

Takumi,

what about you?

By the way, Natsuki hasn't been coming to school recently.

Is she not feeling well?

I don't know.

You don't know either. I wonder what happened.

(Initial D 2nd Stage)

(Initial D 2nd Stage)

Dad.

He's not here.

Hello, this is Fujiwara Tofu Store.

It's you...

You must be wondering how I got your home number, right?

Your 86 has "Fujiwara Tofu Store" written on it.

I wrote it down.

I will come to pick up my sister tomorrow.

She ran away from work yesterday, and didn't return to the hotel until dawn.

I don't know what she's up to.

Even though she's my sister, I'm angry with her for her attitude.

Itsuki, you're in trouble.

But these are all family matters, what I'm about to say is the main point.

I want to have a race with you.

Can you make time tomorrow night?

Before that, you need to figure out how to use the engine to its fullest.

Otherwise, our race will be meaningless.

Please.

Goodbye, I will call you again.

Takumi, it's you.

What's wrong?

Senior, I have a favor to ask you.

Tomorrow night, I might have to race against the turbo 86.

Before the race, I want to learn how to control this engine.

Can you help me install the tachometer?

A tachometer?

Senior, you know a lot about cars, right?

I don't understand this kind of thing.

Please.

Senior, please teach me.

Um.

Although I'm not entirely sure,

by taking a quick look, you can tell that this engine is pretty extraordinary.

Ah...

This car has a great carburetor.

The angle of the exhaust manifold is also incredible.

Based on the new five-cylinder engine, it's been modified very professionally.

Indeed, this car has been modified. The horsepower must be stronger.

That Wataru guy was sure that the power will increase if the RPM is raised.

I want to believe what he said.

Break the seal on the high RPM zone?

If what he said is true, that is indeed very exciting.

Installing a new tachometer is not difficult.

But I'm worried about one thing.

Is it okay to modify the car without your father's permission?

My dad...

I don't know where he went.

Anyway, even if I ask him directly, he definitely won't agree easily.

I'm prepared to be scolded.

No matter what, I want to have this engine in full swing by tomorrow night.

I understand. In that case, let me help you.

I will go and find a tachometer for you tomorrow morning.

Drive the 86 to the gas station right after school.

Thank you, Senior Iketani.

You've really helped me a lot.

After all, you and the 86 have helped me many times.

Don't worry about this.

It takes a week to get the goods?

I need it today.

No, it's out of stock everywhere.

After all, not many cars need a tachometer that goes over 10 000 RPM.

How can I face Takumi now?

So, every store is out of stock?

Boss, do you know where to find one?

Well...

Wait a minute, could it be...

Hello.

Oh, Yuichi.

We do have it.

Wh...what? Masashi, do you really have it?

Bunta asked me to order one for him, he said he wanted to install it on the 86.

A racing tachometer, a water temperature gauge, and an oil pressure gauge.

Hold on a second.

Iketani, I'm really shocked.

I got chills all over.

So this is the seal Bunta was talking about.

Masashi, bring all the instrument parts you just mentioned to me right now.

Takumi.

What are you in a hurry for?

Mogi...

Takumi...

I'm in a hurry, sorry.

Takumi.

Takumi...

Mogi...

Okay, now just secure it with screws.

Yes.

Okay, that's it.

Easy, right?

Thank you a lot, seniors.

If I were alone, I would definitely be at a loss.

Just a tachometer is not enough.

Even if this is a high RPM engine,

you can't increase the RPM indefinitely.

If you don't know the RPM limit of this engine,

you won't be able to go full throttle. How can you race like that?

Your dad should know this. If you don't ask him,

you might damage this precious engine.

Ask my dad?

That car is...

It seems you're ready.

Let's have the race tonight as planned.

You can choose the location.

Where do you want?

That's the turbo 86 we saw back then, right?

Yes, and he's the brother of Itsuki's girlfriend.

So what's the situation now? It feels so complicated.

I see. Let's do it then.

We will meet at the race venue.

Goodbye.

Takumi, where are you going to race him?

We will also go cheer for you.

MATSUYA HOTEL

Brother...

What are you doing?

Didn't I tell you before

not to do anything that would embarrass Aunt?

Mom and Dad are both worried about you.

After you get off work today, pack up your things and come home with me.

Don't make decisions for me.

It's my fault for staying out all night without telling anyone.

But I didn't do anything wrong.

It's not necessary to ask me to go home just because of this.

Don't tell me that. Explain it to Mom and Dad yourself.

If you still want to work here, explain everything and then you can come back.

Compared to before, you have changed a bit.

You've become a bit more independent.

I admit you've grown up.

But Mom and Dad worry because they don't understand this.

If you explain it to them well, they can be reassured.

I understand. I'll go home with you.

TAKEUCHI

What do you want to talk to me about?

I'm going to race someone tonight.

Who...who are you going to race?

It...it's not Kazumi's brother, is it?

Yes.

And I have a favor to ask you.

Can you come with me? I'll feel a bit uneasy if I go alone.

Of course.

Thank you. I'll pick you up later.

What do you want to say?

I'm going to race someone with this car tonight.

I've installed a new tachometer.

Please tell me the RPM limit of this engine.

Please.

It can go up to 11 000 RPM.

You have to win.

Thank you, dad.

Takumi, where are you going on the highway?

He told me I can choose where to race.

Where did you choose?

Shomaru Road.

Isn't that his home turf?

Takumi's new engine against Wataru's turbo engine.

Takumi's new engine against Wataru's turbo engine.

The story has finally reached its climax.
