Behind the wheel of his modified Eight-Six, he’s one with the road – and his life shifts into high gear when the underground street racing world takes notice. Local legend Keisuke, a member of the infamous RedSuns racing team, wants to take Takumi on. He’s not alone; drivers from across the region are lining up for a shot at the new guy. One challenger after the next, Takumi schools the competition with his amazing drifting technique and downhill expertise. But it’s not enough to rack up the victories – Takumi’s out to prove he’s the best. Review: A long time favorite. - One of my all time favorite anime series. I never tire of watching this. No matter how many times I watch it, I still find myself glued to the screen as if the outcome of each race may have changed since the last time I watched it. Is it perfect? Certainly not, but the flaws are easy to overlook when the story is this good. If you like cars and street racing, this is a must see. The story is pretty much timeless. The English dub is very good. Many times it is far better to read the subtitles in foreign films and anime, but they did a superb job capturing the context rather than just a direct word for word translation from Japanese to English. The anime is light years better than the live action movie version. I strongly prefer the relationship between Takumi and Bunta in this over the live action. Stop thinking about it and order the dvd already. You won't regret it! Review: Great dubbing, awesome quality - My original season 1 set (From Walmart I think) is getting old. So I decided to get seasons 1-4 together. The quality is nice on season 1. I'll review the other seasons when I get the chance to watch those. The dubbing is good, though different from my last set. What I like it the original sound effects and soundtrack is present. The last set had rap music, missing sound effects(86's high speed warning bell indicator), and the characters were given nicknames, ie Tak, Iggy, Cole, Natalie, etc. I like hearing Nakazato's toccata theme song when he pulls up behind his opponent, the original soundtrack is just made to make the races exciting. My original season 2-4 are subtitled only so it'll be nice to get through all the seasons with dubbing. Thanks desertcart for having these box sets! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Brina Palencia, Colleen Clinkenbeard, Eric Vale, Joel McDonald | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 620 Reviews | | Format | Animated, Box set, Color, Multiple Formats, NTSC | | Genre | Anime & Manga | | Language | English, Japanese | | Number Of Discs | 4 | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Anime & Manga - **Format:** Animated, Box set, Color, Multiple Formats, NTSC - **Contributor:** Brina Palencia, Colleen Clinkenbeard, Eric Vale, Joel McDonald - **Language:** English, Japanese - **Number Of Discs:** 4 ## Images ![Initial D - First Stage S.A.V.E. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81x35d5GulL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A long time favorite. *by J***H on February 3, 2017* One of my all time favorite anime series.

Thanks Amazon for having these box sets! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great and different anime *by K***T on January 11, 2013* I love this anime and it is well worth the price I paid. I've never seen any other anime like it as it focuses almost completely on drift racing and makes it fun and interesting. At the decent price point I'd highly recommend giving it a try or if you can stream it online I would definitely encourage you to give it a try. I will say that normally I don't go for anime anything like this, I usually go for more like GitS or Darker than Black but I love this so even if you don't think you'll care for it I'd at least recommend giving it a try if you can stream it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/3541717-initial-d-first-stage-s-a-v-e](https://www.desertcart.be/products/3541717-initial-d-first-stage-s-a-v-e) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
