» The Initial D Manga
The Intial D was first published in 1996 and currently still is published by Kodansha. Initial D is also featured in the weekly Young Magazine. The Initial D manga is what the Initial D anime is based on. If you read the manga, you may notice that a few races in the anime are out of order and some characters such as Tsugumi are excluded.

If you can't read Japanese, the manga is also translated to Chinese, English, and many other languages. Since there are many translated Initial D manga publishers, one publisher you should be aware of would be the English version made by Tokyo Pop. They release on new translated volume every month, however please be aware that they've done alot of editing to it.

So far 30 volumes of manga has been released.
