Movie Reviews of Initial D - Battle 14 - Extra Stage
Movie Review: Worth a look.
Summary: 3 Stars
I was a little cynical about "Initial D: Extra Stage" at first, suspecting that this was an attempt by the makers of Initial D to get more girls to watch it. But when I took a look, I was pleasantly surprised.
"Extra Stage" is most certainly the most girl-orientated of the series, following the side story of Mako and Saiyuki (know as Maya and Simone in the English dub), a road racing duo who call themselves "Impact Blue", after their bright blue Nissan Sileighty. The movie (actually, it's a collection of short stories) focuses on their relationships with the other racers, their future ambitions and their battle against the sexist attitudes of their opponents. A word of warning, though; this isn't one to pick if you're into road racing duels because there's only one battle on the entire DVD, and doesn't last all that long. That was a little bit of a let down, so too was the inclusion of the "fan service" bath scene (which showed Maya wearing very little), presumably put in there to keep the boys in the audience amused.
"Initial D: Extra Stage" is certainly worth a look if you're a fan, but the lack of racing in comparison to the rest of the series might leave some watchers yawning.
Summary of Initial D - Battle 14 - Extra Stage
As usual Mako and Sayuki are racing on Mt. Usui. But Mako can't concentrate on her driving because of the break up with Iketani. They both learn from Shingo that a team made of Lancer Evolutions called Emperor is targeting Usui now, to conquer the Gunma area. Will Mako and Sayuki be able to defeat the Evolution team?Animation DVD Video
