@@ollirock_221 Keisuke never gave up his record to the financial and machine-powered MFG drivers, until ideal professionals like Kanata and Mikhail appeared.
Did he really lose his prime? I seem to remember his student riding shotgun while he drove and stating he was ridiculously fast, so he’s probably still in good driving shape, maybe even faster, but I don’t really know for sure, as we haven’t seen him in a proper race.
Pretty sure mate he still in his prime, i mean the unbeatable demo course records in the 5-round courses proves it so. Beckenbauer just happens to beat one of em Also he casually giving his mentee(sena) goosebumps while driving the supra on akagi while being tired
I mean, most cars last long with proper maintenance, even more so for the Takahashi brothers because they're hella rich at this point in time and probably have a lot of resources to maintain a rotary. And even if they manage to blow an engine, crate engines exist.
@@lirneim8013 On top of that doesn’t Keisuke own a tuning company now? As he and Kenta said something about a factory and parts, so it’s likely that with all those resources maintaining his car would be kids play, hell, he might even be able to further improve it.
Sadly, only Phantom of Demo Run title is relavant now. The White Comet was long gone and the Ghost of Akina had leave the mountain to go pro for 30 years (MF Ghost is set in 2035) and retired due to injury. With street racing faded away as a culture. It would a miracle if someone still remember them.
Soon, a couple generations after mine, (I’m born in 2005) will never know what an RX7 is. Much less a rotary engine. Our fuel burning heroes are slowly becoming legends of the past. Much like the Initial D characters in MF Ghost. This is a real, ongoing scenario.
@@asmerX100 I think MF Ghost ignores the events of the scenes depicted in the credits of Final Stage. They even reused the license plates from the Legend films.
MFG courses are both uphill and downhill, hence Keisuke is the only one who can do both in the Project D days so he's the perfect driver for the demo run.
Bunta, Joshiya *(God Arm)* and Kozo *(Godfoot)* are still terrifying drivers despite the old age. Keisuke will be no different. In fact, he's the new God Foot now. and in real life examples of old monsters, we have the likes of Robert Kubica, Fernando Alonso, and Kimi Räikkönen
The FD3S is great, it made me excited to hear the sound it had from First Stage to Final Stage, since in the Initial D Legends trilogy it had a completely different sound, for a moment, I thought that the FD3S would have the sound it had in Legends.

In the manga we never saw it getting scrapped though, maybe it’s just still sitting in the junkyard. Keep in mind, when a character or object dies or is destroyed off screen (or in the manga’s case off panels) that’s because the creators are leaving the door open for a possible return, and knowing how much MF Ghost relies on nostalgia I wouldn’t be surprised if the AE86 shows up again at some point, I could be wrong though.

Strange. I seem to remember Keisuke's RX-7 having different tail lights. In the vid it had stock tail lights. The suspension also seemed higher than back in Initial D.
What you're thinking of is the OEM tail lights from Zenki FD RX-7s, which would lit up the entire housing. Keisuke's car is a 1991 Efini RX-7 Type R (first year of production of the FD, so it's a "Zenki"), so it would have had that from factory. However, when it was modified for the last time in the battle with Hojo Go, the car got the famous "circle" taillights which were introduced in the 1996-1998 "Chuki" FD RX-7s and would carry on for the 1998-2002 "Kouki" FD RX-7s later on. The higher suspension could be an animation thing though, or maybe just something Keisuke did so the car is better to live with in regular driving. Remember that this is his personal car and he most likely daily drives it here or there.
They should have used the RX7 sound from the Legend trilogy, even though I’m fine with the original sound from the main series I consider the other sounds to be vastly superior.
Both cars are technically the same car, but the MF Ghost universe is a continuity of the original Initial D anime and not the Legend movies, hence why the voice actors returned to play their original characters from Initial D. The reason why the FD has the legends license plate is because this was animated by the same studio that made the Legend movies, and they probably are reusing assets whenever possible.
Just imagine if they stumbled a footage of the AE86 running in MFG, I mean they didn't do it, but they manage to bring Keisuke here. No problem being Takumi for a cameo like good old Takumi despite of him being injured he manage to heal up and run the MFG course pulling off Bunta level shit in his suspension updated, engine swapped(probably a black top 20V 4AGE) Or better yet Takumi showing up running the course with Kanata's GT86 with Kanata with it, and probably scaring the shit out of Kanata

We need more of this, more and takumi + his dad tbh… heck give me sequel to Inital d with both takumi in rally racing and keisuke in the pro racing circuit
I don't care what happened in the manga. All that I know is in the anime Takumi decided to keep the 86 instead of scrapping it. So it should be no problem to bring the 86 back too when Takumi finally makes his appearance.

He did not race for 20 years by that point and had a very busy schedule as a doctor. While Ryousuke stays in the career as a pro racer and even after his retire, he still doing demo run for MFG courses with nigh-unbeatable time record.
@@Heylanda-fb9xb You got the name mixed up lol. Ryosuke is the one that became a doctor
@@Ultra_64 Well. I didn't follow this series closely for 6 years now since the Final Stage finish airing.

ロータリーハンデ、無いのか…?
Couldn't imagine if takumi run this arena. that will be something to watch
We need more of this, more and takumi + his dad tbh…
heck give me sequel to Inital d with both takumi in rally racing and keisuke in the pro racing circuit
I don't care what happened in the manga. All that I know is in the anime Takumi decided to keep the 86 instead of scrapping it. So it should be no problem to bring the 86 back too when Takumi finally makes his appearance.
I love how they reused the 13b sounds from Initial D to here in MFG
Can't believe he calls himself a Japanese when he couldn't even recognize the Mazda badge alone 😩😩
MAZDA RX7(^o^)
If some one ask me do i Will by ev in the future the answer is nope i will never ever buy ev bike/car bacause for me its booring and i can't feel the emosion passion or exiting feeling in that kind vehicle i will stick with gasoline car/bike until i die 👆
Wasn't his car tuned a lot more (aero etc) at the end of final episode of initial D?
That's definitely keisuke
As soon as I saw that yellow FD i know it was Keisuke xD
