wangan midnight (湾岸ミッドナイト)

recently have been searching for this old set of comic, wangan midnight. it is like initial d, a comic on racing. initial d focus on racing in touge, which is mountain road, whereas wangan midnight is abr racing on the wangan highway. quite like the way it started, tho is quite lame but i do feel is quite interesting. it uses a car much older than the ae86 which takumi drives in initial d. the car is being known as the devil z, which is a nissan build, fairlady z, and the car was being found by the main character in the junk yard. the car was known as a devil as it chooses its driver and had caused the previous 3 drivers' death.

was interested to find the comic as was quite attracted by the maximum tune arcade game. think the game was pretty well done as i really enjoyed watching how people played either against computer or against human players. however i really dunno the storyline as the comic is only availabe in japanese and currently i cant even find any extra information on the story. went to kino on tuesday with tze wei and found the whole set of comic, was really happy cos is the first time i saw the physical comics. however is too expensive as is selling for 505yen but is 10-12 sg dollars per book which is double the price. was quite discourage as i was really interested in finding out more abt the story. hope there will be chinese version as i dun really understand japanese and i hope to understand the full story of it.

if anyone has info on wangan midnight, pls tell me abt it.
