Initial D, Volume 1

The Ghost of Mount Akina

Tak 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, Tak 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, it seems the local boys are doomed to lose the race. But hope arrives in the form of a mysterious Trueno Eight Six that has been seen racing through the mountain roads. The question remains: who is the driver behind this phantom car?
