New Initial D the Movie: Legend 3 - Dream

Yes, the drawings are cleaner, and they skipped some annoying parts in the story of the first anime, but they skipped too much : The characters fellings are not developped. Lot of character backgrounds have been skipped. You don't see any relationship between Takumi and his father. The technical parts about the engines, the cars improvements, the driving techniques have been reduced to the minimum. You don't see how they improve the cars. You don't feel the same excitement during races. Is it animation ? The lack of details of what makes a difference between the pilots ? They really seems they have skipped the best parts of each race. Music and sound treatment isn't as good as the original. I was disapointed. I would really recomand to watch the original animation if you have never watched it. Even if the drawing style seems a bit odd and old.
