Goddamn

Goddamn has a similar atmosphere to Nasu despite being set on a different continent and being about car, as opposed to bicycle racing, although they are more than a decade apart. In comparison to Nasu it isn't quite as 'existential' as the latter half of the cycling story turned out to be, but as usual all have differing focus. 

Goddamn doesn't have as much commentary as Nasu's first episode which may be perceived as monotonous. 

The environments here may be of more interest than either the comedy or sport, as in the limited time Goddamn doesn't quite establish a consistency that others in the same genre (e.g. Slam Dunk adapted at around the same time) develop over tens of episodes. 

These series are both focused on car racing, while Initial D is more focused on Street/Drift racing, Goddamn is focused on Rally racing. Both series are pretty intense and definitly a great watch if you like intense car races!
