Chapter 066

K.T. Takahashi Has No Blind Spots (高橋啓介に死角なし!!, Takahashi Keisuke ni Shikaku Nashi!!, "Keisuke Takahashi has no blind spots!!") is the sixty-sixth chapter of Initial D.

Plot
Kenta and Keisuke practice on Akagi. Kenta asks Keisuke why him and Ryosuke haven't challenged the Eight-Six to a rematch yet. He asks Keisuke to let him face the Eight-Six on Akagi, but Keisuke reminds him that they only race opponents on their own home course. Kenta can't understand how they can be fine with their reputations as they are, but Keisuke tells him he's more focused on the upcoming battle with the NightKids.

At the gas station, Iketani tells Takumi about the challenge from Kenta. The SpeedStars are still shocked he'd ask him to race on Akagi, and imagine that he knows he couldn't win on Akina. Takumi says that he doesn't know if he'd be able to win against one of the RedSuns on Akagi. The conversation turns to the battle between the RedSuns and the NightKids on Myogi.

Bunta loads the car with tofu for deliveries. Takumi tells him about his race on Usui, and mentions that the pass didn't feel very different from Akina. Bunta is pleased to hear that, and tells Takumi that Usui is a very different course from Akina, but that he managed to make it his own. He tells him that racing is all about adapting, and that he should trust his experience in any situation. Takumi heads off on his runs, and Bunta's words stay with him the whole time.

On Saturday, at Myogi, Nakazato vows that the NightKids won't lose on their own mountain.
