The animation "Initial D" is different from the general Japanese animation works. It is a very realistic animation with a strong sense of the times. The comic series 1995 started, and the animation 1998 started. The plot took place in Japan in the 1990s. The charm of "Initial D" is that it is very realistic, and there is little greasy chicken soup.

The story tells the ordinary life of ordinary people in ordinary counties. My parents run small businesses, tofu shops and gas stations. They have nothing to do except catch up with the Chamber of Commerce in izakaya every day. Young people live an ordinary life, change cars blindly and run around in the mountains. Senior boys and freshmen brag about which girl they have picked up, and they fight if they don't agree. The author described the life of young people in Japanese towns 20 years ago, but it filled me with infinite yearning.

The aid of Xiashu Maomu is also a realistic description of the phenomenon that Japanese middle school girls did this at that time. To tell the truth, I still don't know why Xia Shu did it, for the money? I don't think Xia Shu's family situation is not described in the animation, it may just be for fun. If it's just for fun, then I look down on her. Although she is the hostess, she doesn't care about her figure, but only satisfies her own selfish desires, so that she will regret it in the future.

I like this cartoon very much, but I don't like the role of Xia Shu.
