First Stage:
Takumi Fujiwara is the son of the owner of a local tofu shop. At night, Fujiwara gets in his souped up AE86 Sprinter Trueno and races on the seldom-used Japanese mountain roads. One night, the Akagi Red Suns team, a racing club, challenges the Akina Speed Stars to a race on the mountain where Fujiwara lives. Keisuke, one of the leaders of the Red Suns, races his legendary Mazda — only to be beaten by the mysterious Fujiwara.
Second Stage:
The hero meets new formidable foes. Though they were vanquished in previous races, they have come back in great form. They combat in unfamiliar terrain, the hero has to apply the prowess he learned from his father to overcome his opponents.
Third Stage:
Finally, after long fans await, The Initial D series hits the wide screen on January 13th 2001 in Japan. Watch for the improved animation and CG as the car racing spree (or you might say Toyota-love-fest) hits the road.
Without too much spoiler, this movie tied up the loose ends from the second stage: the disastrous battle with Emperor racing team, the love-relationship between Takumi and his girlfriend and pretty much the future of all of the main characters.
