Review of Wangan Midnight

TLDR Review - one point is removed for each negative aspect. Story (-1) : even though street racing genre is self-explainatory, the same formula of tune/fix and race again becomes boring when it occurs for the 3rd time (and more to come) Side characters (-1) : every 5 or so episodes, 2-3 supporting characters get replaced with new ones, with almost nothing but personal background being different. Races (-1) : police is nowhere to be seen, other traffic drivers act like props, neither road nor weather conditions don't change. Races end within seconds with one driver letting go of the throttle when facing personal contradiction for a moment- or if something breaks. Winning the race seems neither rewarding nor interesting.

Plot holes (-1) : Devil Z (the cover cars) "curse" on the main protagonist (with which the whole story is based upon) is negated by supporting characters, descriptions of crashes don't make sense when the show is trying to be realistic and relationship between main protagonist and his love interest (actually its the other way around) remain unresolved.

Ending (-1) : show ends with no conclusion after the final race, with it being nearly identical with other ones on the show.
