The Ending..??

Overall, I'm impressed. The ending was satisfying. It's just the story didn't go on as long as I thought it would. I thought that (MAJOR spoiler)
I hope there's a sequel.

Spoiler (mouse over to view)
it would end with Capeta at least participating in the F1 races but it just ends after he gets scouted to participate in the European F3 after winning the Macau Grand Prix. I guess the ultimate goal for Capeta was just to win against Minamoto Naomi.
I hope there's a sequel.

If I'm trapped on an island and this series isn't with me, then be damned because I'll be swimming.
@Crazy_Horse9876: I appreciate the work that you and the rest of Deadbeat put into this series and the results look phenomenal.

Well, actually, it was decided to skip those volumes because they were adapted in the anime, which means they were already covered. Watch the anime and pick up where it left off. Those volumes will come eventually, I think, but these later ones take priority. The later volumes are part of a joint project and I typeset the series for Deadbeat. We may try to scan all the previous volumes, though.

I loved the Anime , but was so disappointed when I realized no one was scanlating it. well apperantly there are people dooing it But not constantly I don't know why .. I would gladly even help out on working with the team that decides to scanlate it .. if I knew how to read Japanese I'd do it myself .. actually I'll be honest I'd prob just laugh at all you guys for not knowing japanese , and go about reading it..
