Initial D 4th Stage comments... - Archive Topic (Locked)
Yoten:
--- Quote ---I was wondering if you guys are gonna release the DVD-subbed versions as well or just the ones from TV?
--- End quote ---
This is something we haven't given any thought to yet.
--- Quote ---Anyways I just noticed an error in episode 2 when the new character (Daiki) appears at the end of the episode... He is on his cell phone talking to a former member of his racing school (Toudou Juuku) and refers to him as Tomo-san, not father as is the case in the sub... I don't mean to rag or anything... Just thought I'd point it out...

Hmm... I just checked on that and it looks like you're right. Thanks for letting us know.
--- Quote ---With the errors in the episodes are you guys thinking of releasing fixed versions much like some other groups do?
--- End quote ---
I don't think so. I sort of think that v2's are more trouble than they're worth. Mistakes happen, but there's no sense in fracturing the episode over some corrections. The fewer versions of an episode there are floating around the internet, the better, in my opinion. If we re-released our episodes using DVD raws in the future, though, that'd be a prime time for any corrections to take place.
--- Quote ---There's one last comment I have, you reveresed the names in the fansubs, to make them like "surname" then "familyname" like it is in european cultures, however asians always put family name first. It wasn't a big deal, but it did bug me more than the car terms.

That was a conscious decision on our part.
--- Quote ---BUT... in episode 2 of fourth stage, Keisuke's FD3S RX-7 goes against a R34 Skyline GT-R (you can tell by the taillights). The R34 did not come out till '99.
--- End quote ---
Actually, Keisuke says in episode 2 that while he at first THOUGHT that it was a GT-R, he was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a GT Turbo (which is an FR car.) No idea when those were made, though, so I can't help you with your timeline question.
epox_999:
Ok Skyline Gt-turbo is still a '99 model, it is like you said, FR, with the same engine, less one turbo.
Also, I think that I have identified Bunta's car from the intro. It's a WRX STI, but no normal STI to be sure.
It's a 1998.3 WRX 22B STI Coupe 2-door. Only 400 were ever made, they sold out in 48 hours.

ragnarrok:
From Initial D Arcade Stage, Bunta's car is a Impreza WRX Type R STI Version V (GC8V)

Yoten:
ragnarrok is correct about Bunta's car in the game. I'd imagine that it's the same car for the series as well... I'm sure someone who's read the manga can confirm this.
Spymon:
I enjoyed watching ep1. Just a few comments, I'm sure a lot of the technical specifics will go over the head of a lot of the people who watch these eps. It's nice if it's correct, but if things are a touch hazy it certainly won't kill my enjoyment. Everything else seemed rather nice, the main ep font could have been a little larger if I were to nitpick.
