Chapter 595

Strife (Part 2) (葛藤 (後編), Kattō (Kōhen), "Conflict (Continued)" is the five hundred and ninety fifth chapter of Initial D.

Plot
As the three cars race through the course, Rin and Ryosuke appear to have a conversation, communication with one another through their driving. Rin questions how Ryosuke was able to forget about Kaori, how he seems completely uneffected by her death. Ryosuke responds, saying that despite the pain her death caused, they can't let it rule their lives, they must move on and cannot run away from reality. Rin retorts that Ryosuke is the one running away, and that they should both take responsibility for her death, as they made her suffer. Ryouske says that he hasn't forgotten, and that he isnt running away. He admits that she is always on his mind, and that to move on is the only way he can deal with it. He asks Rin if he thinks that she would have wanted to see them fighting eachother, and vows to open his eyes to the truth.
