Initial D Fifth Stage Episodes 9 & 10 will air on March 8, 2013. The Shinigami race will last 2 full episodes!

Nah there has to be 14 at least because the Sidewinder races (plus the anticipation towards the Final race) cannot be done in just 2 episodes...

They've rushed it so much, it doesn't even really feel like initial d anymore.

Low budgets will do that. Especially when they're expected to make expensive CGI animation along with the episodes.

If you didn't already know, there is a parody of Initial D called Densha De D. It is Initial D but with trains... choo choo.
Here is the TAKUMI VERSUS SHINGO Battle. I laughed so freaking hard at the ending.

Takumi vs Kai is hilarious
He literally jumps his train off the tracks and it flies across the city and lands somewhere else.

I don't see Initial D ending in episode 12. Even the manga hasn't finished yet! dafuq!? To put it in actual perspective, Episode 9 is starting from chapter 581. The manga right now is at chapter 700. Thats 120 chapters left to cover. Four more episodes would mean 30 chapters per episode. If that happens, the Shinigami race (one of the longest in D history) wouldn't even last 1 full episode. If this happens then it's really a shame.

The actual untranslated manga is just about ending the 86 vs 86 race but it's not JUST the races, it's the character reappearances, the wrapping of loose ends, the overall conclusion to a series that has lasted 18 years in its entirety. They cannot do that in such a hasty manner unless they WANT to kill off Initial D after all these years and give it a less-than-acceptable ending

^^^ I agree that they just want to kill it off which im not happy with but i dont know why i get the feeling that they may make a movie like they did with third stage but thats just a feeling and i highly doubt it but it would be awesome if they did that tho IMO

You mean that fifth stage might actually end before we get to the NSX and 86 coupe race? That would be a huge letdown...

The last 2 races will happn they just can not exclude them from this stage maybe they will extend the time limit for the last two episodes instead of being 30 mins might be and hour special MAYBE its just a thought either way im happy how this season is going just sad that its so short and already close to an ending
