this blog is no longer active because im more stable since i've cured myself of the mental illness called university and i have a dog and a boyfriend now 👍

[strayknight]

sometimes i think i can probably pass as masc and maybe even as a straight guy but any time i engage in conversation with a kind stranger i have a demeanor not unlike a princely rich girl archetype in a 2000s manga and frequently extend my hand in an elegant manner which has caused a number of drunken individuals on nights out to kiss my hand as if i were a beautiful ojousama and not a greasy mechanic

[strayknight]

every time i talk in work i feel this image manifest in my mind like a specter that torments me

A heated podcasting moment from the 25th anniversary episode where we talked about Initial D manga covers.

the honda cervix…

[pitbolshevik]

it dawned on me earlier when i was explaining dodge vipers to a friend who doesn't know cars how fucking insane they were

[pitbolshevik]

this fucking thing is notorious for being incredibly dangerous to drive. like, it straight up wants to kill you. there are several reasons for this:

-massive engine combined with a very lightweight body. absolutely insane amount of torque.

-no airbags

-no ABS, no traction control, no electronic driver aids whatsoever

-stiff suspension, lots of power and wide tires meant that it was incredibly twitchy and would oversteer badly if you didnt manage it perfectly

-the tires werent really equipped to handle all of that power so they'd often lose grip or just literally fucking melt

-it does not like bumps. if the pavement isnt perfect and youre going fast, it will spin out

-its exhaust pipe is positioned so that it's extremely easy to get burned by it when exiting the vehicle

Initial D Art Book

I've been excited to do this one for a while.

The Initial D Art Book was released by Kodansha in 2001, and features a lot of the art made by Shuichi Shigeno for the series up to the time of release (which would have been around the time of the Northern Saitama Alliance races).

The books 233 pages are split between pages of artwork, block coloured manga pages, art featured on cover pages of the manga chapters, and photos of the courses. Also included is a several page interview with Shigeno himself, and a look at merchandise that had been released up to that point.

It's a very interesting book, and I'm glad to have been able to scan it in full. A previous scan does appear to have existed, but it was likely made in the early 2000s and thus the quality isn't the best. The only surviving remnants of that scan are a handful of cropped pieces that have been archived, as well as a deck of cards that somebody made using the art.

I've uploaded the entire book onto the Internet Archive, which can be read here. I hope you enjoy it.

im not active much lol but like i keep getting so many notes and shit and like, love that for all of u that there's a constant influx of new ppl for this p much finished work (mfg don't interact) and like, i used 2 be crazy into yuri on ice and like, after the movie got cancelled ppl had a meltdown that like the fandom is dead and it was all for nothing and like, sorry girlies that viktor is no ryosuke takahashi having a dead fandom sounds like a skill issue

[bitchkeisuke]

also keisuke is one in a million shigeno slayed with this one

[sui-hokuto-deactivated20250306]

rkgk initial D keisuke takahashi.I like the combination of Keisuke Takahashi and a Chihuahua. He doesn’t have a dog in the official story, but I think a small dog would suit him well! 😂
