Synopsis

Continues the story of Initial D Third Stage

After a crushing defeat by Team Emperor leader Kyoichi Sudou, Takumi Fujiwara's AE86 suffers engine trouble, making the skilled street racer doubt his own abilities. Now a recent high school graduate, Takumi receives an invitation from Ryousuke Takahashi, captain of the Akagi RedSuns, to join a professional street racing team. While this could be a perfect opportunity to improve his driving, Takumi hesitates. Can the aspiring racer rise to the professional level? With support from Ryousuke and the RedSuns, Takumi may overcome his doubts and misconceptions about street racing—but his first priority is settling the score with Kyoichi Sudou.

In this installment

In the fourth season of Initial D, Takumi Fujiwara joins forces with Ryousuke and Keisuke Takahashi to form "Project D." The group has two main purposes: Ryousuke wants to perfect his "High-Speed Street Racing Theory," while Keisuke and Takumi aim to sharpen their driving skills by taking on tough rivals on dangerous mountain roads. Project D plans to compete against street racing teams from multiple prefectures, striving to set the best times on both uphill and downhill runs. To pull in the strongest challengers, Ryousuke creates a website to announce Project D's upcoming races and share the team's results. This fourth entry in the Initial D series follows the members of Project D through their trials and victories as they work to become the top street racing crew beyond Gunma Prefecture.
