Bakusou Kyoudai Let's & Go!! (爆走兄弟レッツ&ゴー!!, Bakusō Kyōdai Rettsu Endo Gō!!) is a manga by Tetsuhiro Koshita that appeared in CoroCoro Comic centered around Mini 4WD racing. It was later adapted into an anime series, and was also made into several games.[1] The series also released various merchandise, including CDs, trading cards, and stickers.

Manga

  • The manga series ran serially in CoroCoro Comic starting in the June 1994 issue through the October 1999 issue.

Characters

Main characters

Retsu is one of the two title characters. He is a fifth-grade student who is 11 years old, and Gou's older brother. Although he is able to control his patience better than his brother, he still lets out his annoyance with someone once in a while. Retsu sports a green hat as his trademark. His primary color is red, which is the color of his hair, eyes, gloves, shirt, and Mini 4WD cars: Sonic Saber, Vanguard Sonic, Hurricane Sonic, and Buster Sonic. In WGP, he is the captain of the TRF Victorys [sic] team.
Gou is the second of the two title characters. He is Retsu's younger brother by one year, and he is in the fourth grade. Gou is rash, impulsive, careless, impatient, and brash. He is usually seen wearing goggles, but they are on his forehead most of the time as opposed to covering his eyes. His primary color is blue, which is the color of his hair, eyes, gloves, and boots, as well as his cars: Magnum Saber, Victory Magnum, Cyclone Magnum, and Beat Magnum.

Supporting characters

  • Jiroumaru Takaba (鷹羽 二郎丸 Takaba Jirōmaru) - Ikue Ohtani
Jiroumaru is Ryou Takaba's younger brother. He likes Ryou a lot, and follows him around everywhere. In his speech, he always mispronounces "desu" (です, meaning "is" or several other forms of "to be") as "dasu" (だす), and calls Ryou "anchan" (あんちゃん), a cross between "aniki" (兄貴) and "oniichan" (お兄ちゃん), both ways of referring to one's older brother in Japanese. His cars, which he named "Jiroumaru Special", "Jiroumaru Special Special", "Jiroumaru Special Special Special", "Jiroumaru Special Special Special Special", and "Jiroumaru Special Special Special Special Special" are constantly damaged in races. Most of these cars resemble Ryou's first car, Tridagger X.
Jun has been a friend of the Seiba brothers since they were infants. She is an ace pitcher in baseball, and plays for a team named "Jun Chanzu" (ジュンちゃんず). At first, she is a novice at Mini 4WD racing, but improves in her skill through the influence of the Seiba brothers and others. Jun's name, combined with those of Retsu and Gou, is a reference to 1970's Japanese comic Yoshiji Watanabe, who went by the stage name Jun Retsugou (レツゴー じゅん Retsugō Jun). Her cars are named Wild Home Run, Home Run Manta Ray, and Super Home Run Manta Ray.
Tamotsu is Jun's father and the manager of the Sagami Model Shop that the Seiba brothers frequent.
He is the father of the Seiba brothers. Kaizou quickly developed an interest for Mini 4WD and likes to race together with his sons.
The mother of the Seiba brothers, she has a bighearted and courageous personality. At first, she dislikes Mini 4WD racing, mostly due to her annoyance with Retsu and Gou constantly fighting about them, but she eventually grows used to it.
