In my opinion this is a very much underratted anime, most people probably went into this thinking it was gonna be like initial d then realized it wasnt so they gave it a bad rating. The story was very interesting to me esspecially since it held fairly true to the real world (seeing as one of the midnight members was a doctor and did own a high tuned porsche despite it actually being dark red rather than black). since the story is made up of short stories and you have no way of knowing it was a little confusing when the second arc started (not including the intro arc) when suddenly a character that looks like the main character but older appears on the screen and you have no idea whats going on thinking you skipped an episode. Another problem i have is the lack of character design, the characters look fairly bland and not just unoriginal but what you would expect of side characters in any other show. other than that this was a great anime, the animation was defanantly the best ive seen of cars and the attention to detail is amazing, the characters focused on in each arc are all fairly intersting, some much more than others (im looking at you second gtr guy... i dont think anyone was really a fan of you). the main characters could have used some more to them but i wasnt to worried about them, to me the story was mainly about the people racing the main characters not the main characters themselves. the music in this was absolutly amazing, very orginal in many places and always fit perfectly, one of my favorite animes to this day
