--- Quote ---Mistresses are a tax deduction in Japan I think? like a company expense because everyone is expected to have one. and the old guy that she called dad, was actually the father of the guy driving the 4wheel drive celica in 3rd stage on the snow. At least I think that is right as I'd have to go back and check it out more closely to make sure I haven't forgotten that already.

Oh man~ i hope you're joking right? the old guy she called dad was just some guy paying her to acompany him -_-" in no way did anyone say that he was related to the guy in the 3rd stage....(and i don't think it was a celica)
the guy in the 3rd stage was an old bf and the guy she was calling papa, was jus some guy paying her for her "time".
Maybe your information came out of bad dubbing/subbing??? O_o
da_jon:
The guy in 3rd stage was driving a Celica 4WD and he was the guy that Takumi punched in the face in the locker room for talking about Natsuki. I do remember someone saying he was the old mans son. I'd have to check.
DeFCoN:
i want to say da_jon is right... not sure either though.
anyways, about EP 5 & 6... OMG!!! i'm not even into animie but i've been hooked on ID since i saw my first episode! the characters and plot is amazing not to mention the driving and car talk.
I've still got my Torrents open for those of you still downloading. about 5 and 6 Gigabytes uploaded so far!!! looking on L-E's torrent list page it looks like there's like 500MB/sec worth of Project D and Live Evil flying around the net right now. haha that's amazing!!
i really think i can speak for everyone and give huge PROPS and THANKS to L-E&IDE for once again pulling off what would be impossible for many of us!!! you guys doing the subs will never know how much we all appreciate it because of the few that are negative about the wait.
p.s. setting up a paypal donation fund like BitTorrent might not be a bad idea... i'm sure quite a few of us have an extra couple of bucks to knock Initial D towards the top of the pile on your to-do list!! haha

As I recall at least in the manga the son when he is in the locker room talked about how he dated her when she wasn't seeing his dad?
anyways I'm pretty sure he is the son of the guy she called Papa.
As for the tax break I think that might have been in the 80s because you could expense the girl's apartment and otherthings. Not always that you actually sleep with her as much as she is a status symbol that you can attract younger women while being a powerful man in the world (Instead of it showing that you are a tool like it often proves here).
I did find an article on Geishas though if that would help clear up the biz of how Japan sees things like this.

Hmm is it just me but the series is still kinda doesnt feel as good as the past series? Even tho the quality of it is better its lacking the X factor in the usual Initial D series?
Anyways hope the stroyine will pick up soon. Hope Tak's Dad will get his subaru soon and kick ass! Think they need to make Tak lose more... Might actually make it more interesting. Also the races feel samey samey...
Anyways heres an question. In real life do the Japanese really take street racing that lightly as in, in the cartoon it doesnt really show that the law is trying to prevent it etc. Like fast and furious?!
