Avex Pictures have released the first trailer for Shin Gekijō-ban Initial D Legend 2 -Tōsō- (New Initial D the Movie Legend 2: Racer), the second film in the new Initial D film trilogy. The trailer features the song "Resurrection" by Back-On.
I’m a fan of the original Initial D manga and anime. It’s what kept me a fan of cars and racing. I even saw the live-action adaptation that starred Jay Chow, which was very underrated. I haven’t watched the first film of the new film trilogy but I’ll definitely will before the release of this second film.
Check out the trailer below. Initial D Legend 2: Racer opens on May 23rd.
The film trilogy retells the beginning of the story from Shuuichi Shigeno's original car-racing manga. 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 Gunma Prefecture issue challenges to Takumi to see if he really has what it takes to be a road legend.
