So is Initial D finally ending after 16 years?

Not certain 100%, but it seems so seeing this info..

I hope Avex will find a new way to advertise Eurobeat into another project.

Even before Initial D, Eurobeat was still known, so I am hoping they can find a way to make it popular without having to rely anymore on Initial D.

I am hoping there will be a new "project" to promote Eurobeat.
Maybe a new means to show off Eurobeat to bring new comers?

The manga volume for the manga has been released on November 6, 2013 and the last chapter back... in July I believe (July 29, 2013).

Fifth stage ended on a cliff-hanger, making people think that there would be a 15th episode. That was not the case. Later after the FIfth Stage, it was announced there would be a "Final Stage" and a movie (that there are finally 3 of them). Final Stage will cover the final battle between Takumi and Shinji and the ending to the saga.

Afterward, there'll be an Initial D movie trilogy. This trilogy will retell the story from First Stage up to the end again. The first movie will air in cinemas in Japan from August 23 and will be titled "Legend 1 -Awekening-".

What does that mean for Eurobeat?

Well, there'll be this compilations and probably songs for the trilogy too.

All AVEX has to do is fund another manga animation project to showcase its Eurobeat songs onto. Manga is popular all over the world and they have the money. Something along the lines of Zombies or some apocalyptic storyline would be great. Plus the labels get a whole bunch of new ideas for theme songs.That's what I would do, but I don't belong to AVEX staff,so they proboly think screw me and my ideas.

Perhaps they mean songs that haven't been released as extended anywhere else....

The ones of interest would be "Sunlight" and "Kiss" if indeed they are extended versions? That would be something.

If there was a longer version fro Kiss, SCP would have released it with EuroKudos Vol.4. I know, it's a shame because Kiss is fucking amazing.

I'd really like to hear Listen to Me Baby

I was gonna say, unless AVEX has the rights to the extended? Either way why get a hard on over something we are probobly notgonna get

There is NO longer version than the 3:56 one. Get over it, doc. If there was a longer version, they released it (Bigga Boom comes to mind)

Avex has the right to explain the song itself in the territory that has been discussed between Avex and SCP, it's not about the lenght (radio edit/extended).

I have no information about the different versions of Kiss. But Lebon seems to know and says there's no longer version available. So there's ur information

My information is "common sense". They would have released it on Eurokudos Vol.4 is there was a longer version of Kiss. So, common sense says that there's no longer version. Disappointing? Yes.

That was my point. Anyway, it's no longer just about "Kiss", but about all songs in general.

Would a label: if they should choose to do so, be able to extend a track or remix it if AVEX has the rights to it? I'm thinking out of the box for a second and take for instance a song that was originally released at a certain legnth; suddenly became super popular again. It could be for whatever reason you want. Could the label remix it on thier own, or would AVEX be an issue?

The company still owns the right to their songs, just not the distribution. And yes, SCP could pretty much come back to it and make it longer if they wanted. Will it happen? Possible but very unlikely.
