This is both "Dual Audio" and "English Subbed Only". There is both good and bad to say about both the torrent and the series. Regardless of its' shortcomings this is an epic series in many ways and unless you abohor street racing anime you should enjoy this. I found it addictive and watched everything except for the "Battle Stage" movies (as I found them redundant and without new content). The anime series was produced by no less than 5 different studios and 5 different directors, all based on the manga series written and illustrated by Shuichi Shigeno. This is not a recipe for consistency. I would like to blame the encoder but from what I can gather, for some obscure reason many seasons were never released widescreen when they went to DVD. This is a fantastic reduction of size from what was the encoders source (over 5 times smaller without loss of quality) so I give the devil his due there. How good is this series, really? It spawned not only a live action feature film but numerous arcade and console games. The way the series is presented one would never have the slightest indication of just how highly illegal touge or mountain pass street racing is in Japan. There are just too many seasons to remark on so I will not bother but I will say I rather enjoyed this, the music was great and I think most will find this more interesting than it sounds.

Plot Summary: High school student Takumi Fujiwara works as a gas station attendant during the day and a delivery boy for his father's tofu shop during late nights. Little does he know that his precise driving skills and his father's modified Toyota Sprinter AE86 Trueno make him the best amateur road racer on Mt. Akina's highway. Because of this, racing groups from all over the Gunma prefecture issue challenges to Takumi to see if he really has what it takes to be a road legend.

There is just no way I am going to take the time to list all the music for this whole series. Sry bros', just call me lazy.
