Initial D Ten Year Anniversary
Initial D is celebrating the ten year anniversary of the anime series this December 2008 with the release of Initial D: Extra Stage 2: Tabi-Dachi no Green. The new Initial D OAV focuses on the lives of Mako Sato and Sayuki – two girl racers that form the racing team Impact Blue with their blue Nissan Sil80 (sileighty) drift car. The girl racers are known to dominate the Usui Mountain touge and have already been featured in the Initial D Extra Stage OAV released in 2000. Reports say that Extra Stage 2: Tabi-Dachi no Green is not a direct sequel, even though Shuichi Shigeno wrote the script back in 2001. The new DVD is available December 5th in Japan and has already aired once on SkyPerfectTV.
