According to Anime News Network, the film trilogy of the hit racing anime series Initial D is based from the beginning of the story of Shuuichi Shigeno's original car-racing manga. The story revolves around Takumi Fujiwara, a gas station attendant during the day and a delivery boy for his father's tofu shop during late nights. Using his father's modified Toyota Sprinter AE86 Trueno and his driving skills, Fujiwara became the best amateur road racer on Mt. Akina's highway. Due to this, Fujiwara received challenges from racing groups all over the Gunma Prefecture.
