Fumihiro

Fumihiro (史浩 Fumihiro) serves as Project D's second in command and handler, setting up and organizing battles with other teams, as well as scouting out prospective courses. In many ways he is also a sort of Executive Assistant to Ryosuke Takahashi. He had the same role during his time with the Akagi RedSuns and, presumably, has known Ryosuke for some time.

It is not specifically known whether he has a history as a street racer or how he came into contact with Ryosuke and the RedSuns; his personal car, a Toyota SW20, is only seen once during a daytime meeting with Keisuke Takahashi but is never seen at any races. Fumihiro typically drives the Number 1 van during Project D's events. In the Fourth Stage, Keisuke nicknamed and call him "Shiko".

Trivia

 * Fumihiro is his first name. He has no confirmed surname, although he has been called by two other surnames
 * He is called Hiroshi on several occasions (specifically First Stage - Act 11, Volume 17 - Chapter 194), however this is likely a misspelling or mistranslation of his name as while 史浩 is Fumihiro, 浩 is Hiroshi.
 * A character known as Fumihiro Jouyuu appears in MF Ghost . It is implied that this is the same Fumihiro as in Initial D, which would mean his surname is Jouyuu.
