Why isn't there more racing anime? Initial D seems to be the only good one, Wangan a shit

It's not like it isn't popular, Initial D is culturally very popular in Japan.
>>

>Why isn't there more racing anime?
Because to most animators, the cars are moving too fast to be caught on film.
>>
>>142689052
Because CGI are expensive as shit and not all Racing manga are popular like Initial D.
>>
Because there is no point in competing against Takumi.

Cars aren't as popular with young people today because now they're obsessed with social networking and being narcissistic estrogenites.

Initial D was popular in the 90s and remained popular because it was stacking on top of what it had already built years and years ago. Had 1st Stage been produced in the 2010s it would have likely flopped.
