Donut’s favorites include both series so focused on realism that they recorded real sounds for the cars as well as futuristic, dystopian fantasies.
And of course, it’s not all about underground street racing—there’s anime about Formula One, rallying, and karting on the list.
Any F1 anime that thinks to include a six-wheeled car (which is a real thing that happened!) has to be pretty sweet.
We get it: you’ve seen every stage of Initial D 42 times and can quote it ad nauseum with the best of ‘em, but there’s far more racing anime than just one series.
