Initial D: Fourth Stage - 24 - Never-ending Challenge (SUB)

[ruiz1031]

Now for Stage 5 Polyphony Digital should do all the car models and race segments. That would never happen but a guy can dream.

[twitchykun]

Who's up for tasting the lucky man?

[shahidali619]

When are we going to get the fifth stage? Even in the manga? That is SO incredibly unfair 

[SideWaysiscool]

@shahidali619 the manga is way a head than anime

[zenthex1234]

dear funimation, why u no 5th stage?

[23905970]

@zenthex1234 as it's not yet.......

[TheMassyl]

initial d taught me how to say 'shit' in japanese

KSOHHH!!!!!!

[mattae86]

@TheMassyl its "kuso"

[TheMassyl]

@mattae86 yeah i didnt knew before i wrote the comment

[nitroboyn2o]

9:00 whats that remote for? S2000 stereo? lol

[damalemale]

I'm addicted to I.D.

[Yoshi17111]

GO YON SAN NI ICHI GOOO!

[CeeEmmz]

WHERE THE FUCK IS FIFTH STAGE xD

[BRUCEWILLISx]

bunta all the wayyyyy.

then its takumi :)

[Evolved08]

I want to see them make a zero stage.. a story about Bunta when he was young..

hmmm :)

[PhildeCritic]

@Evolved08 13 episode brief story of bunta. real question, were his eyes ever open? haha. EXTRA STAGE 3! heheh

[LimeF1SH]

@Evolved08 Great idea but to be honest, you'll have to inspire the creators of Initial D. Maybe they'll make zero stage & finish it up with stage 5 :\

[FlipOneVision]

The Title of the song is Initial D - "Rage Your Dream"

[MikiBaka1]

@ 17:00 song said "Takumi" all the time ? or is it me XD

[Uncreativity81]

@MikiBaka1 I think the song's name is Takumi, so it's pretty self explanatory lol.

[MikiBaka1]

@Uncreativity81 i guess it this too XD but i just wanted to be sure XD

[baroc00]

the only one who can beat takumi is his father thats why the ryosuke making him his own style maybe like that ..

[frostbite0995]

waiting more then 5 years for initial D stage 5 fucking awsome

[TropicalEros]

@frostbite0995 Seriously? Even so, idc..as long as it comes out. lol

[Lalitoguerrero]

@frostbite0995 a 5th stage is com'in out??????

[InitialDFanAllTheWay]

whats the name of the song when takumi battles god arm?

[otakusama17]

Takum has a weakness for Blue cars, Gold Rims, and Old Guys.

Now we know who's gonna be his next toughest opponent in fifth stage.

[raigami]

now we are talkin! japanese dub!!! english sucked balls!

[Shoot1ngStar]

they seriously need to install ac into their cars, theres no need to sweat that much lol jk

[2ndXary]

initial d taught me how to count down from 5 in japanese

[LimeF1SH]

@2ndXary Watch it on crackle, its english. Sounds way better tbh. I like ryosuke's voice + keisuke's it sounds just like what the character background of each are. Keisuke being the cocky person before thinking he can beat anyone & ryosuke, very smooth or such. 

[Kodard69]

will there ever be a 5th stage? :(

[twitchykun]

I don't know if I want to taste the Lucky Man.

[rads1072]

i'd be really happy if i could get a women that didn't have her up her ass

[sweetnaughtylove]

There will come a time when Takumi will be saying.." Look Dad No Hands".. when he is driving too.. but he will never be like his dad tho.. Driving with no hands and his eyes closed while lighting a cancer stick...

[RuinHD]

it's funny how Bunta is like the most skilled driver around, yet he drives WITH HIS EYES CLOSED! gotta love the tofu shop clan lol. =]

[LIGHTakaKIRA]

Joshima did leave Takumi in his dust for a bit until he threw up... that deserves respect. I don't think Takumi had anything else in his arsenal to surprise him. Joshima vs Bunta would be cool but Bunta would win without much trouble.

[M1TECHNOLOGIES]

i wonder if i would be able to pull off that move that tak does when following behind another driver in my blue 86, make me disapeer for a few then bam! here i am. lol. thatd be so cool!!! espically if it were to be in real life and going that fast in and out of the dithces to pull something like that off would be incrediable!!! tak, your one insane sob!

[kirayoyo]

Wow takumis almost unleased the full potential of the AE86 lol

you can tell he didnt compared to buntu Lol

when buntu tested it out the person next to him was puking

[GameReplayers]

"Perhaps he was born with a special something bestowed upon him..."

Bunta's sperm. Gotta say that's pretty special myself.

[carmodifire]

The driver they got the 'one handed steering' was from Ayrton Senna, who used to drive streetcars with one hand somethimes. He is considered the greatest F1 racecar driver of all time. He was the REAL Bunta. You should see: 'top gear ayrton senna' its a good documentary.

[ryechaz]

@carmodifire

Colin McRae of WRC fame also was well known for his one handed steering technique. Either of them were good choices to get the "god arm" character from.

[carmodifire]

@ryechaz Yes I forgot about colin mcrae. he was a legend too

[ktowntj]

they should be stoked that they were both able to drive home before the motors blew or they snapped axles or something...

[thelrg86]

who would dislike thiis?

[MCJustinG]

@thelrg86 people who drive muscle :3

[FearCarlos]

@MCJustinG I drive muscle n I like it O.o it wasn't the car I wanted to end up with,but hell I like a lot of cars.

[tranceotaku]

Sad to see this show end, but I'm sure I'll be watching it all over again one day.

[RandomLOLROFLMAO]

@tranceotaku I just finished re-watching 1st, 2nd and 4th Stage along with the 3rd Stage movie for the third time... >.<! 5th Stage is apparently coming out in March but I have my doubts about that... =3=

[easternpiro]

BOTTOM LINE: It dosent matter if you dont like cars or drifting/motorsports. If you can HONESTLY say you DONT ENJOY this show after watching at least 5 episodes, or at LEAST become addicted/curious as to what happens next... HAVE YOUR HEAD EXAMINED.

/RANT

[xjohnnyxriverra]

DAM i can not wait for stage 5 to come.....its aggravate me so much that they havent started with stage five anime.....i have watch first to fourth stage repeatedly for some time and getting bored at it.... not happy at it... :(

[someguyZERO]

Where does Takumi park his car if his Dad's Impreza now takes up the lone parking spot there?

[someguyZERO]

It seems like Takumi seems to be all right after the God Arm Battle,

BUT HE STILL HAS HIS 4WD COMPLEX. How come they don't mention that anymore, even in the manga?

He still can't find a way to beat the Impreza with his AE86.

[jeffman3]

Wow, look at his face at 12:03

[teakey]

Last one boys

[flyboyII]

Japan; where all old men are either karate masters or ex- street racers.

[C3KGtnUp]

I just finished the whole series and I'm ready for the Fifth Stage! Now if only they could release all the seasons on Blu-Ray :)

[liudxdx]

i love how bunta say "is SHE fixed" tat makes me think the 86 is his wife lmao.

[ZoinkyFilms]

what an animation.

[hoorano]

Couldn't Takumi use the counter balance drift, raising the front tire above the water ditch?

[liudxdx]

@hoorano think he was using the second one and the second one is harder and better!

[c0deone]

@hoorano He could have, but you have to remember his tires were failing, so he wouldn't've gotten any advantage, he needed to use the ditch to turn harder.

[rushyboo]

they should make these car manga in amine too like KING,SS,One & Only,Countach,Shakotan Boogie,Over Rev,Full Spec,Jigoro Jigorou.,Nishikaze's GT Roman series just saying

[SideWaysiscool]

@rushyboo over rev was made into OVA

[NAKAMURA10101010]

LHD ??? WTFF ?? 6:30

[unit03]

@NAKAMURA10101010 -_-" open your eyes man... bunta aint the one who's driving... even bunta with his eyes closed can see that.

[BJissinYOU]

... cant wait for the Fifth stage... Its gonna be sexy :D

[sicknickmondo16]

@BJissinYOU hell yeah Fifth stage

[RyanJPDManriquez]

dam now i have to wait for the fith stage to come out T.T

[J0nnyChan]

stupid advertisements

[vutgeta]

wtf 18 ppl likes this srry u dont like this U LOVE THIS!!!!! love the the whole show now bring n the 5th stage baby cant wait even tho i been waiting fer like 3 or 2 years now ..

[LILxBOZ]

@vutgeta well you are in luck my friend.. it should be coming out MARCH 4TH 2011 :D well thats what i hear anyway..

[vutgeta]

@LILxBOZ word thats wats up man thx fer the 411

[funakiexpress]

feeling so fly like a 86, like a 86, like a 86

[TheGarcia350]

my god this one race took TOOOO long....not even the best battle between ryosuke and takumi in first stage was this long. the talking made this boring.

[ToLookFoRiT]

@TheGarcia350 true but this is to conclude the series and show that takumi still has way too much to learn. I guess they tried hard to get that point across with too much explanation but it is a perfect segue into 5th stage :D

[TheGarcia350]

@ToLookFoRiT i guess your right, but it was too much yappy lol. btw is there any rumors of fifth stage or if there is one coming soon?

[ToLookFoRiT]

@TheGarcia350 def will be a 5th stage since the manga is still going. There just isnt enough chapters for a new series to come out yet. Honestly dont think it will come out for a couple of years =/

[TheGarcia350]

@ToLookFoRiT yea...i think i'll wait for Berserk instead :P

[mohammdBaQeR]

STAGE 5 STAGE 5 STAGE 5 STAGE 5 STAGE 5

[utubef4n4tic]

they should contintue the series, it kick ass no anime now can compare to this racing one.

[paisis123]

in a world were if Ur Japanese Ur GOD at drifting but suck at everyday driving?

[subeefan]

@paisis123 no, ur getting Japanese confused with Chinese. Please don't make that mistake again.

[bertanderny]

So the 4th stage proved that Takumi is very very lucky, as he could of lost on a couple of occasions.

[someguyZERO]

@bertanderny His luck continues in 5th stage(afterwards in the manga)

[Gh0stwhipz]

takumi is starting to look like that guy from batman beyond lol

[ProjectDVOlk8787]

89665

[JeusDante]

i swear its endings like this that give me the chills and keep watching!!

i even got some goosebumps in my armpits!!

[linkdarkshadow]

According to the manga, the arc that its on is soon to be over when they battle the last team of the region(with the NSX guy, though Keisuke will probably race him). I'm guessing that it will be 1 or 2 more volumes.

After they are done with that, making a Fifth Stage anime would make a lot of sense. So maybe next year we'll see another season... hopefully.

Anyways, thanks Funi for the upload. I look forward to purchasing the DVDs when I get the chance.

[hoorano]

@linkdarkshadow Where can I get the new manga?

[linkdarkshadow]

@hoorano As far as purchasing the manga, I'm not sure... I'm too broke sadly. Thus far I've only read the manga thanks to online fan translations. Try MangaFox.

[KosaiAvonej]

Supposively a 5th stage is in planned future production for the series, the only problem is the current manga run is too long to make into a single stage so we'll see a good portion of it an then wait again for a sixth stage.

[hoorano]

I would love to see Bunta against Joshima God Arm.

[Drifter9020]

@hoorano didnt god arm asked about his dad?

[hoorano]

@Drifter9020 Before the race, Takumi explained that the AE86 was the only car that his dad used in delivering tofu when asked why he choose to a car like that. He then explained how he gotten to love this car. Joshima said that he Takumi's dad would be a good friends

[ToLookFoRiT]

@hoorano bunta would win easily.

[TheCezara]

@hoorano Bunta will be the winner :)

[kimchislayer]

@TheCezara god of hand is incredible dude. i think hes on par with bunta. either way, OLD MEN RACERS FRW

[kimchislayer]

@kimchislayer FTW*

[orenmcgrath]

@hoorano if takumi beat him im sure it would be a walk in the park for bunta

just saying

[ichirootaniguchi]

@hoorano according to the story they did race... and my guess would be bunta won lol joshima would have had a different car back then though since it was way before the AP1 was even made

[hoorano]

@ichirootaniguchi I wonder which manga featured Bunta vs Joshima?

[ichirootaniguchi]

@hoorano none. i've been reading it since i was 6 and yeah none have it but the basic "Story" states that bunta and jou-san do know each other it would have been set in either the 70's or 80's though

[zionbnr32]

@hoorano sry but Bunta is God in Initial D

[xninjazx6r]

@hoorano i wouldnt, heck i dont wanna see bunta racing anyone, he would beat anyone without any effort

[MasterKavalash]

mika? YES!! at least it aint that slut Natalie :D

[08evercrest]

4th stage was great, so many good battles although i thought the race against the EK9 and the miata were better than the very last one. Hope 5th stage will be out in no time

[Z4Drift]

why do they all talk such nonsense. All serious likes it life and death

[mynock05]

@Z4Drift if youve ever done serious touge street racing you know it is a matter of life and death sometimes at the speeds you race at on roads with uneven surfaces, no guarrails sometimes, and the possability of oncoming traffic or deer or other animals

[Z4Drift]

@mynock05 Sounds more like an act of stupidity then anything else.

[mynock05]

@Z4Drift well youre obviously a pussy so better to not have u clogging up the touge routes

[Z4Drift]

@mynock05 LMAO! me a pussy? LMAO sounds like you never actually driven anything other then a tricycle. ;-)

[mynock05]

@Z4Drift lets race some time then, put ur money where ur mouth is internet tough guy

[Z4Drift]

@mynock05 look at my videos fool! Anytime u want! ;-)

[TheGarcia350]

@mynock05 lmao that depends where the "idiot chooses his grave" ;)

[4thKyuubi]

@mynock05 There is also a possibility that you will see a woman getting fucked hard in the ass in the sidestreet

[mynock05]

@4thKyuubi exactly

[BYCURE213]

@mynock05 a risk very well worth it when you look back when youre old and tell your kids and grand kids about it.

[day4nyt]

@mynock05 yup been there done that :D

[taevion0]

shouldn't their cars break down by now lol, driving this hard 8times in a row

[joniwhytestar]

@taevion0 takumi's it did broke the suspension.

[omgstoptakingnames]

ehh i was tired of seeing these guys win the same way all the time, the episodes were pretty predictable. i liked the episodes where they were doing other things.

[djquackquack]

@omgstoptakingnames

I agree. This was my least favourite stage so far...

[willkpres]

@djquackquack i miss iggy being stupid

[Svendar]

Excellent, thanks for the upload :)

[utuber2040]

I need stage 5

[FrosChannel]

Thanks for the upload FUNimation! Hopefully we see more in the future!

[CarbonKaos00]

You guys do know there is a Battle Stage 2 then Extra Stage 2 after this right?

[AnnoyingTiger888]

I want so bad for there to be more, like a new stage or a special or something. I wanna hope for that so bad, because this is my favorite anime of all time, and it really hit me hard. I really hope, somewhere down the road, they decide to make a new stage. I'm really hoping for it, and I'll keep hoping for it.

This anime will forever be in my heart.

[Rockoguy]

@AnnoyingTiger888 they already have manga for fifth stage they only have one volume in english and a shitload of the japanese ones r coming out so much happens ryosuke gets a shitload of upgrades to his car n kai from 3rd stage comes back in an mr-s and takumi gets a new gf named mika :) i have the english volume n i read sum of the jap ones online

[KaleunMaender77]

@AnnoyingTiger888 ahhhhh...bless...hehehehhehe sorry

[GenjiSama91]

At the end of this episode was Tak driving with one hand?

[ROCK25LP]

@GenjiSama91 YEAH I THINK SO..... IT SUKS INITIAL D ENDED..... I WANTED TO WATCH MORE.....

[ojaygragert]

@ROCK25LP Initial D isn't over. They are still releasing mange for it. The last came out mid to end of may. Seems that they come out about every one or two issues every month or so. So I doubt that it has ended. I am about to start the Manga myself. Happy Reading.
