Negative Positive
Title: Vol 1 Ok, but then it goes downhill fast.
Review: I picked up vol 1 out of curiosity, since I had seen all the anime (1st, 2nd, movie, sidestory) and wanted to see how the story was different. Vol 1 is great, and I would recommend that.However, after vol 2. they americanized the names, which I think was stupid. Also, some of their technical terms for driving (understeer, oversteer, etc) in their glossary are lame. Maybe they need to find somebody who actual understands road racing to help explain some of it.Last of all, the scale for the map of Gunma prefecture is off by a large margin. It looks like they gave it a 200km (124miles) scale. This is absurd, since it makes Gunma approx maybe 1000+ km (600+ miles) tall and wide. Impossible since Japan isn't even that wide/tall there. I know.. I lived near that area. Guess it was supposed to be 20km.. that would make more sense.
