Redline (2009) - Yellow Line Race [edited, 1080p, 24fps, 5.1] 

4K VERSION HERE ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oL10Gt2uags.html Nah seriously, go see it instead of this one. It's the exact same but better.

Every single frame of this film was DRAWN BY HAND. EVERY. SINGLE. FRAME.

Honestly the thing I like about this movie is that when these vehicles reach a certain speed it looks like they're about to fall apart or just explode. That's how hard they're pushing these things. And the sheer amount of G Force the drivers are feeling.

I love how tiny the Trans-AM is compared to its competitors. It's like Anakin's pod-racer going up against rivals with engines bigger than its entire frame.

This is one of the best opening scenes to just about any movie ever.

“You’re just a voice pal. You don’t know a thing about racing!” -What you say to the haters out there

Still love how the classic captain is a "Fuck You" to aerodynamics and just has power for to bash its way through the air

Shortly after my dad died, I watched this movie every single day for 2 weeks. I can no longer watch it without crying, but that is not going to stop me from watching it. Redline is a safe and sacred place for me, I want to learn Japanese so I can meet the director and thank him in his native language

You know what’s neat? The driver introductions at the start. It instantly establishes a whole bunch of world building for this scene and the rest of movie. In the first pack, there’s an ex-champion, regulars of past Redlines and the arch nemesis of someone who’s in the current Redline. Establishes that this race are all top class racers and our protagonists Sonoshee and JP are a class of their own, being able to outrace all of them. Then the second pack. The racer whose from the planet hosting the current Redline sets up the Princess’ magical powers later on and then “Planet Dorothy’s very own” racer which is just a neat way of saying that this planet’s natives are the dog people

I just love that extra little tidbit that JP doesn't end up 2nd, the other cars are so insanely quick and so closeby that in the short timeframe of him losing control, Sonoshee winning and him going over the finishing line, the rest of the field goes through and he's like 5th or 6th... It really sells you on the idea that these cars are no joke and that they are _insanely_ fast.

The thing about this movie is its sheer sense of speed, and that's encapsulated by the way that in every single racing frame, the entire screen is moving. Look at it again, I swear, there is not a single stagnant moment. It builds and maintains momentum like no other film I've ever seen.

i love how the creators of this movie nailed the sense of speed. Your edit only makes the race more enjoyable while leaving little of the intrigue behind. well done!

This edit makes for a great teaser/extended trailer because of the omitted Frisbee scenes. It is mostly spoiler free. It also makes it essentially rated PG and I can share it in my classroom to animation students. Bravo! It must have been fun to edit.

one of the few times eng dub actually makes an anime better

This movie is basically Hotwheels & Speed Racer meets Fast and the Furious. It’s awesome.

Based off having 50 kilometers left in the race with about 7 minuets left in the video they are racing at about 428.6kmph (266.3mph)

You can just see and feel how much passion was put into this movie.

Love the original with the extra scenes in the context of the movie. But when I just want to relive the pure adrenaline of this scene, your edit is PERFECT!

Man after years of watching this movie, it still holds up really good today in its own way IMO. Sad it's still not known from more people.

JP's car is going so fast, the headlights were being pushed in.

This feels like an anime version of the feeling you get at the drag races seated at the point where the engines peak. Did that when I was a kid with my dad and I get the same kind of rush. You don't really care who wins, you just enjoy the sheer raw power of machines whose noise alone can shake your bones.

Race Dandy, he's a Dandy guy in a Race. He combs the galaxy like his pompadour on the hunt for First Place. Racetrack after racetrack, he searches, discovering bizarre new Racers both friendly and not. These are the spectacular adventures of Race Dandy and his brave Race crew, out for a Race!

7:31 when your trying to make it over the finish line before the blue shell gets you

I'd like to take a minute to point out that JP had a 14-15 second gap from the leading pack before he used his nitro cap, catching them in the span of about 3-5 seconds (if we cut out the commentator's remarks about his rocket ride). My guess is that these cars, without nitro, push about 200-220 (since towards the end we see JP's speedometer reading 225 before he pops his second nitro cap). For JP to suddenly close that 14-15 second gap in 3-5 seconds, his car jumped from 215-220MPH to a solid *245-250MPH, maybe beyond that.* Towards the end of the race, JP and Sonoshee are both doing ~220MPH until they pop their nitros, and there's no other cars around them. When JP crashes, there's about 5-10 seconds until the rest of the pack catches him at the line (they were both pushing the same 245-250MPH on the run to and past the line, though JP was likely pushing 260-275 since he keeps ahead and starts to pull away from Sonoshee until he crashes). That leaves me to wonder how fast or slow their competitors were to have built that gap in such a short time. Not to mention the fact that JP crashes while still under boost at 260-275MPH. A crash that violent at that speed? Dude's lucky to have gotten away with the injuries he did. This sport is fucking insane.

Aside from how kick-ass awesome this movie was (and still is!) can we all take a moment to appreciate how utterly adorable Sonoshee was? Talk about a great girl!

This edit is so good, it manages to perfectly cut out that weird subplot of the mafia and his mechanic and made it just look like the power was too much for the car to naturally handle. Fantastic job

Nothing has ever captured the feeling of all-out speed better.

The animation is crazy for it's time. Tbh uts better than most nowadays too

That moment where the intense and energetic music cuts to complete silence as the checkered flag is unfurled gives me goosebumps every time

Nice traeng. Very clean edit. The audio is clipped cleaner here as well. The decision to remove the mob boss scene was interesting, and actually works out quite well. I also agree with the fps, increasing it would have messed with your quality. I would have to pick this one, over the old edit. Good work, thanks traeng!

Him pulling the trigger and maxing out his machine might be the sickest scene I have seen in any anime, ever.

before I saw this movie, all I knew about it was this shot at 2:18 in an animation reel. Just from that four seconds, I knew I needed to see it and to go in blind. Sublime film.

watched this movie for the first time earlier this year, i was totally hooked from the yellow line race and i keep coming back to watch it.

that's soooo impressive! although i never had any interest in car racing before, this clip still make me heart racing and hang on the edge of my seat!

6:28 the bmw driver on his way to go 400 miles per hour to overtake me

I always wondered how this scene would play out without the mob boss part. I quite like it.

I can come to appreciate the fact that you don’t see why his rear driver side wheel came off. So it is presumed to be strain on suspension components, perhaps. However, when you go watch the movie, you could easily make the argument that nobody could beat him in yellowline up until that incident. Reasons, reasons... Very exciting!

7:20 you can feel the headlights being squeezed deeper into a hull

i love this movie so much, its the type of movie you can just play at any time and you dont get sick of it

3:45-3:49 J.P. is just having some fun out there, turning and giving Sonoshee the "what's up" nod before he gets serious again.

Very well done, removing the mafia was a good choice in my opinion as it kind of took the feeling away from the race when I watched the movie

Man this is gorgeous. Thanks for editing just the race. The audio transitions so smoothly!

I haven’t seen the movie in a long time, and I totally forgot about the mobster scenes, so I thought this was all one long race scene. That’s how good your editing is, bro.

the sub is terrific and a perfect showcase of all action and little to no useless exposition, show dont tell, also a masterclass in delivering sense of speed in animation

5:29 I love that scene.. It just portrays that sense of scale of these monsters that an average muscle car had to compete against. They have an almost alien feel to it.

Man I love this edit its absolutely amazing. This is my favorite version of this race. I often would skip the story anyways to watch this scene in this fashion. Thank you for this edit

Love the edit, this is honestly the perfect trailer for the movie. Show this to anyone and their gonna be instantly hooked.

The insanity of the sound editing and the MUSIC!!! Oh my god the SOUNTRACK for this is timed SO perfectly. Oscar Committee was snoozing on this one.

You might be cool, but you'll never be as cool as flirting with your rival while drifting during a turbo boost.

Honestly there is not a single other movie that lets you feel the sense of speed as much as Redline.

Waka Waka: *starts playing from a speaker near me* This video with perfectly timed cuts and scenes fitting each part of the song: "Allow me to introduce myself."

Goosebumps everytime! Excellent edit!

This is basically Wacky Races but anime and in the future.

I come back here a lot

With this editing the race looks more natural and Jp's car broke because the chassis couldn't resist such G force rather than the bomb sabotage bullshit Congratulation traeng, you improved this anime.

2:14 those dials alone took probably a week to make. Let they sink in

You're a legend for editing it. I had nothing to do today and thought maybe just watch thing movie

As awesome as this is, you still can't beat the final race!

First time watching this and I love the little girl with her dad sm 😭

The sound design on this is phenomenal!

Redline is the best and always will be the best! The faces on the missiles being fired from the vehicles are EPIC the visuals are super clean the color variations are superior plus the art form is so goddamn excellent I always turn my loudspeakers up with sub to where it shakes the ground!!

I love how your nitro is either going to blow you up or make you go so fast you swallow your balls.

Tell me which one you prefer, the old one, or this edit? I personally find this edit better, a bit more colorful. Also it has 5.1 audio, not sure the older one did. I couldn't upload trueHD version, so I went for AAC instead. Blacks should be darker, and I did not compress the video when I uploaded it. So, any loss that happened here were youtube made, and I can't do anything about this. (I've heard I could upload this in 60fps or in 1440p, but I don't want to. Keeping the original 23.976024 fps was important to me)

6:32 damn sweet JP over here burning a engine down.

"Mechanical Failure" Yeah, that sure is one way to put it.

Props to the cameraman

This is better edit, despite the old edit being classic, this new one trims all the fat, and absolutely nails the pacing. This edit is perfect for the youtube medium, as although the mob scene is very important for the movie, its not that important for this 9 minute short. However, as a possible compromise, why not just have a quick cut of the detonator being pressed? It can show that the car was rigged, while maintains the pace and adding intrigue

Whenever people tell me they've never seen Redline, I use your edit of Yellow line as a trailer. Get's em hyped and excited.

Ordinarily I'm a sub purist, but since there's also a good upload of the sub, bouncing back and forth between that and this, without the bias of nostalgia since I missed this one when it was new... I think the dub actually sounds better. The character vocal performances in English are more enthusiastic and over the top, which for an anime like this feels much more fitting.

Awesome edit!!

I love how the commentator sounds like the one in Wacky Races xD Especially the start when introducing the racers.

Nice edit, I would revisit whenever I wanna rewatch this scene.

Thank you for keeping the original FPS

Keep in mind leaving a comment helps with RU-vid's algorithm. That way even more people will get to discover Redline! Thanks! Guys. I found a 4k version made by a dude using waifu2x algorithm. That operation required 2TB of storage and over a week of processing. I will not give his link openly because he wants it to stay. -BUT I could make the same cuts as in this video, giving it in 4k. I am now asking everyone: Should I: 1)Post it in japanese 2)Post it in english 3)Both also, should I: 1)Make some more modifications, if there's something to improve 2)Make the exact same video, just that it'll be in 4k (and looks color corrected a bit, no black borders too)

2:21 This is exactly what it feels like when you hit the turbo button on need for speed Hot pursuit remastered

I've never been to a race but I've been to tractor and truck pulls. This reminds me of just how incredibly powerful those machines were. Some fell apart from the extreme power taken to pull such heavy weight. The rattling, the exhaust, the cool exteriors and rigs. Man I love the power of machines. This scene is amazing to me

When ever I see a red line on any sports car I think of this movie.

I have my thanks to katsuya yamada for doing the scene like damn the track ain't going nowhere unless he's there

One of the best racing movies of all time!

This will forever be one of my whole time favourite anime intros

Thank you for your service to humanity

It was perfect, perfect!! One of the most unique anime I've ever watched. Highly recommend it!!

One thing I really like is how Sonoshee's vehicle acts when it's on the water. The way it bounces just really sells how it's hover on jets, and I loved watching her spin out on the water. That thing would have no friction and would be difficult to turn, so of course it would spin like crazy once you got it started. It also makes it drifting around the corner make sense too, she can't take the turn like normal, otherwise she'd just shoot right off the course!

Ah! The music when he uses the boost at 6:25 gives me chills! Jet fuel can truly melt steel beams

Great edit

Watching this daily, need to refresh my personality

Greatest animated race I've ever watched, especially the part when Sweet JP first unleashed his nitro, come to think of it, the whole damn movie is a constant adrenaline rush with very little breaks in-between, from start to finish 😅 (pun intended )

AHHH I saw this movie several years ago and by chance I came across this video and DAAAMN what a rush this animation is... ty for this beautiful 1080p upload ❤️ Also I read your description and I was wondering if you could share that ultra-secret upload with me?? 🙏🙏

Sweet JP: Speed of light? This little nitro pill will make me go 10 times that

Why am I just now discovering this wonderful anime it's basically f-zero hopped up on steroids

The animation is FLAWLESS! Screw it that it flopped in Japan. I loved it!

You kept it 24 fps. I love you, my friend.

Imagine if these guys made an F-ZERO X movie

I've set the older video as unlisted. (RU-vid algorithm got it up to 424k views total.) as this one is better done.

4:37 sounded like a Subaru EJ or a B series Honda. Love it.

I like the detail that they’re as fast as the rockets they shoot until the rockets launch at their max speed.

I'm not a big fan of these kinds of films but holy SHIT the animators did an INCREDIBLE job!

This is the video that got me into this movie. Arigatou Gozaimasu 🙏😊

I like how she has a clutch for some reason on what's supposed to be a hover jet

FYI the music in the ost in this scene is incredible warthunder jet music
