Japan is small enough so that you can actully go to these places and relive the experiance. This is rality cartoons. Any one know who crayon shin chan is. Been to his house once.
I guess if i was making a manga located in my home town or area it would be pretty acurate as well

Haruna is located in the gunma prefecture, its east of toyko. All the places and stuff in initial D are real but im sure Mr. Fujiwara has plenty of unwanted vistors. I'm assuming that Haruna or Akagi or Irohazka are not as popular anymore because of the amount of people that are flooding these mountains. And Im also sure that they're not the best mountains in Japan. The usui area looks the funnest anywayz.

BTW, Haruna is the only mountain that's name was changed.

dude, just go up to Haruna then wait there around 4AM and you'll see a panda trueno with a "Fujiwara tofu shop" decal. Also look for a bluish grey GC-8 STi. b careful cuz they are quick!

Umm,you didn't have to tell us you were going,just go.Btw,have fun finding the Tofu shop,no really,have fun.

I take it your young,why don't you goto Shinjuku in Tokyo? Lots of young girls there(just becareful),unless tofu's your thing.Plus what are you going to do with a rental car? Do whatever you want,no ones stopping you,I just think you could make a little more out of your trip.
Or you can go to Roppongi and get yourself a nice case of venerial disease.

If they can't speak english,and you can't even speak english yourself,how the hell will they understand you? This is getting retarded,you deserve to be laughed out of Japan,or at least piss off some Yak's.

Tryiian, what contry do you live in? if its japan, you probably have a keyboard in hiragana and katakana, correct? if thats the case, it could just be that the translating machine is doing a crappy a$$job, so it looks all jacked to us....

touge is fun, and touge is quite the adrenaline rush, as is drifting. but we must all remeber that both of those are very dangerous, and because of the elements that nature provides, touge is extremely dangerous, as was demonstrated here tonight. one of my buds crashed, and now his car is totaled. all im saying is be careful, no matter what continent you are on.......

Here is how to get akina from tokyo (Real life way)

Ok you will not see any drifitng until the snow melts, we got half way up in a chaser and started sliding backwards. We turned around because there was four guys in the car, it was an automatic, and the TPS was acting up. They also put up city titties on the center stripe. I was there wed. the 24th.
Ok 3HOURS.
Yamanote line from tokyo to Shinjuku
Shinjuku to Haijima
Haikyo line to Saikyou
transfer at akabane station change line to Takasaki line which is bound for
MAEBASHI EKI! IF YOU GET LOST YOU WILL GO TO THE MAN AT THE TICKET GATE AND SAY "MAH-EH-BOSCH-IE ECKY" HE WILL TELL YOU WHAT PLATFORM TO STAND ON. THEN FROM THERE YOU NEED A CAR OR A CAB OR ASK FOR A BAH-SU (BUS). GO TO THE MAN AT THE TICKET GATE AND SAY "AKINA YAMA" AND HE WILL HELP. OH YEAH GOOD LUCK, MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT PLATFORM OR YOU WILL BE WAITING FOR THE WRONG EXPRESS TRAIN.
WAIT A MINUTE NOT GOOD LUCK, THIS IS JAPAN, SHALL I SAY DO YOUR BEST! GAMBATEKUDASAE!
