Relive Takumi Fujiwara's journey from tofu delivery boy to street-racing legend in an all-new, large-sized, 2-in-1 print edition of the series that made Japanese street racing into a worldwide phenomenon. Contains a new translation of Initial D Vol. 15-16. Takumi Fujiwara spends a lot of time behind the wheel. His tofu delivery job sends him racing down the treacherous roads of Mount Akina, and without even realizing it, Takumi has mastered racing techniques that take most drivers a lifetime to learn. Of course, none of his friends realize this. They're all too busy watching the Akina Speed Stars, the local street racing team. When the legendary Red Suns show up to challenge the Speed Stars, the rival team obsesses over a phantom car, the Trueno Eight-Six, seen racing through the mountain roads. Who is the driver, and will they take on the dangerous challenge? This edition is still running in the '90s but features a refreshed translation and lettering for the 2020s, as well as a special large size. Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 448 pages, B&W. Cover price $22.99.

Includes Limited Edition Trading Card - Volume 8 - 1st printing. Story and art by Shuichi Shigeno. Even with his buddy Iggy in the backseat, the battle in the rain goes to Tak. As a defeated Nakamura watches Tak pass him by, a mysterious Evolution 6 appears out of nowhere and leaves him behind as well. It seems the Evo belongs to a couple of guys from Team Emperor, Seiji and Kyoichi, who've been itching to get a crack at Gunma's fastest. They get their shot on Mt. Akina when Tak agrees to give Seiji the race he's been asking for. Meanwhile, Bunta's got a hot new engine to put in the 86, but before he'll do it Tak's got one final lesson in racing to learn... how to lose. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.99.
