Name: Mino Akagawa (赤川 美濃)
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Driving Experience: Exceeding 6 years
Voice Acting Suggestion: Fierce, hyperactive, cheerful yet very loud, sometimes mature and can be scary when angry.
BGM of choice: ONE OK ROCK - NO SCARED

Car Model: Lamborghini Gallardo (Red)
Licence Tag: Osaka 34-01

Licence: Raging Crimson Minotaur

Description: A very work-dedicated supercar-tester on a well-known professional driving school, Mino will drive on any powerful car or even dangerous rides to keep challenging herself to tame beastly machines to suit her own aggressive driving nature.

Due to her tall figure and rather masculine body build, she was mostly feared by many males whom tried to hit on her. She however was surprisingly friendly in nature if one were to lucky enough to get to her good side. Though unfortunately, she still remained a bad choice of a love partner by many males' point of view due to her aggressive and fierce personality as both a driver and a person overall.

She is also currently in a somewhat of a triangle-love relationship between Kujira and Chizuru, due to Kujira's attraction and acknowledgement to her driving and her charm as a strong female, which ignites the love feelings inside her. Chizuru is always considered as some sort of an obstacle in between her and Kujira, hence both always end up facing each other as love rivals on many occassions, and often led Kujira to the crossfire when they argued, much to Kujira's dismay.

But all in all, Chizuru and Mino has respect towards each other as rivals as they both own a supercar and were very dedicated in giving their all just to chase the one man that they both love together. Chizuru even modified her Gallardo out of respect for once, despite it being a minor install of a spoiler on her own car.

Driving Style: Similar to Chizuru, she is extremely aggressive and can be really rough on some edges of her driving. Her acceleration and cornering skills are so frightening that her opponents normally gave up and refuse to compete against someone who drive so dangerously all the time.

She drove her Gallardo just like her arms and legs, so her knowledge on her own machine is on par with Chizuru with her XJ220.

Special Thing worth a mention: One direct punch hit from her can literally shatter at least 5 to 6 tooth from a boxer's cheek or knock them in coma at worst case scenario, so she too is considered quite a boxer, just like Chizuru overall.

... and to think of Katerina sparring with Mino... Katerina would judo the shit out of her but Mino's a toughie. It's like David vs. Goliath.

Considering the fact that Mino is literally taller than even Kujira (181cm...Mino being 184cm)...I wouldn't be surprised.

Anyway...I look forward your new character, imma_N00B

This calls for my update for today. :3

Name: Akihito Yasuhara
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Driving Experience: 7-8 years
Voice Acting Suggestion: something normal for an adult of his age
BGM of choice: TBA

Car Model: Nissan Skyline GT-R V-spec [BCNR33] / Toyota Aristo V300 Vertex Edition [JZS161] (personal usage)
Licence Tag: 16-77 [R33] / 65-46 [JZS161] (Fukuoka)

Nickname: The Wind Tourer

Description: Professional GT racer and occasional Wangan cruiser. He is a good friend of Ekaterina Ivanova. He has met her on several occasions, especially on European track days. He decided to take a break in Japan, where coincidentally, he meets Katerina again. He owns a Toyota Aristo V300 Vertex Edition for personal use.

Back in his professional racing career, he drives a race-modified Skyline R33 for a works team, and garnered enough victories to make a name for himself and his team. His race R33 has 550 HP and weighs 1115 kg. Akihito drives a different R33 for the Wangan, but both the race and the road cars have something in common: they are built to dominate the roads. Apart from the colors, of course.

He is also pretty good at drifting. His fans regarded him as "Keiichi Tsuchiya Jr.", though he isn't really active in the drifting scene. The thing that everybody remembers is when he nearly did a reverse drift entry on the touge. It takes serious balls to pull of such moves, and that's why he has a good reputation on drift while being known for grip racing.

What inspired Akihito to cruise the Wangan is Daiki Akiyama. Daiki's Z has passed by Akihito's Aristo four times, and he's also seen Daiki setting records in closed circuits too. Akihito's Wangan R33 was Wangan ready with the addition of a stage 3 turbo, and when he switches the turbo to a stock one, the R33 fares well on closed circuits. He has also seen glimpses of Seiji's Evo too. He has yet to meet one of the two champions and prove his worth as a Wangan racer, though he's starting to get along with Seiji.

And speaking of Wangan appearances, he pisses himself with laughter everytime a bosozoku-style car pass by. Nobody would even notice what's going on behind the Aristo's tinted windows anyway.

Driving Style: Balanced, with a little bias to the aggressive side. He is also a touring car veteran so he goes by the rule "rubbing is racing". As usual, he hates it when the contact is overdone.

Likes: Skylines, Sports, Jazz music, track days

Dislikes: Pretty much nothing, except for the obviously annoying stuff (like cheesy music and people who talk smack every now and then)

Special Thing worth a mention: He is fond of board games as well. Katerina spent loads of time playing chess with Akihito. Which makes him a rather decisive and rational person.

---

Ooh la la, Seiji's Evo resembles the HKS Evo. Which has 500 HP lol.

Whoa wait...new characters?!

Think I got some serious catching up to do...

And btw, Rin; that story of yours featuring Rei...are there any chance that she might be able to still get her hands on the S130 or at least...the S30Z? :3

I can only imagine her being a very strong Z driver in that timeline, since she's a starting racer on prologue, so she's bound to improve a lot overtime.

Forgot to add these.

Yasuhara's R33 race car is basically an R33 TC in orange with orange BBS RE-MG wheels. His Wangan R33 is in Pathfinder Blue Pearlascent with gold RAYS RE30's. Can't decide the color of his Aristo though, it's probably in Aristo Red or Aristo Green.

It's funny to say that Persona 4 The Animation's director has Seiji in his name.

just not yellow or we'll mistake him for Bloodhound. XD

Don't tell me the Director's surname is Tsuchiya, is it? XD

I might add the PSN top up by tuesday / wednesday when I feel like taking out my PS3 and update stuffz. I saw the biggest bug in back-up-ing your save data though - most pics of your cars in the garage just won't spawn and would stay as a blank and some will have the wrong body color even.

Weird bug. O_o

Well anyway, just did some editing on Sprinters of the Beyond.

Thanks for the advices, Kuroi.

Anyway, I do look forward on edited Day 3 script. My time is almost up here. Sorry that I couldn't update much today.

Triangle - Create Thumbnail for All cars

because creating thumbnails one-by-one is a pain.

And no, I told Bloodhound to get his Aristo flushed. If you know what I mean.

doing promotional / advertisment + Evaluation video of AKANE Z34. It looks like I might do each character car/card seperately. Anyone who has a BNR32 that can be named as KJIRA? Whoever has one will have a cut of every BNR32 purchased by a customer/Speed Legend Fan 50-50.

Evaluation video of AKANE Z34 HAS BEEN MADE. Share to your friends who're interested in buying a full tuned one from me.

Akane is a pink-haired chick I see...

Is she in a way related to Inori Yuzuhira?

If you don't know who is she, she's one of the main characters of the anime Guilty Crown. Prepare extra shorts.

She's mostly based off Ayane of DOA but... *stares at Pic*

I'm sorry what were we talking about again? XD

A chick named Inori, bro. A chick named Inori.

Umm...I think she's more to Kasumi from DOA, like Gunma mentioned. :/

Now you guys are confusing me.

Not quite.

Since the appearance of Kasumi on SL does resemble Kasumi from DOA in a sense.

She hardly bear any resemblance to Inori at all, despite having the similar hair color. Even her hairstyle is differnet.

primary references:

Kasumi Nadeshiko - DOA's Kasumi (NOT THE BASTARDIZED MOVIE, but the game where I fell in love with her from that point on)

Akane Murasaki - DOA's Ayane (again, not from the bastardized movie)

I removed some info about their DOA personas to make them my own (Both are not Ninjas and Kasumi doesn't do fortune telling)

I know, I know, I'm just playing with you guys.

Ain't Inori hawt?

I like Inori. But I love Ayase and Tsugumi MOAR. :3

never knew you watched the series XD

I just overheard some chitchat over at GTPlanet's Anime Thread and that's how I ended up randomly popping out with stuff from other animes.

I do. But honestly; The main character needs to man up a bit more and I'd enjoy it for sure.

... some say Shinji from NGE is wimpier than Shu.

on topic: YASUHARAAAAAAAAAA! Pics of his R33 coming soon.

working on next car review... hmm, which car to do up next?

RYUSN RX8? CINDERELLA RX8? KEISUKE SPEC V? HIEI 80? OR TAKUMI EVO VI?

All.



Or you can give TAKMI a treat and go for his Evo instead. I have yet to add him on PSN though, along with other GTP mates....

also if you can, contribute info on the forementioned cars as well, pros cons, special attributes, etc.
