| They got all the important players of this arc together. Seems this episode wanted them to talk about the events of the arc and the mastermind behind it. This season has been a wild rollercoaster, from the good and the bad. Looking back, these boys really gone through a lot and Sakura truly has matured into a leader like he is today. Probably the safest way they concluded the season imo. |
 |
| Huh, okay, this season is thirteen episodes as well, like the first right? Because no way this is... finale? Once again, they’re just hyping up a villain by making him look as cool and edgy as possible. Like why? We already know this’ll end the same way every other villain encounter has, so just get to it so we can get it over with already, ffs... No, like seriously, "shadows"? DEADASS? They couldn’t have come up with a more edgy name than “shadow”. As if talking about this guy like he’s some kind of evil deity wasn’t already corny enough, calling him a fucking “shadow” just multiplies the cringe factor by ten. So yeah, just like season one, they're ending the season with setup for the next fight. I mean, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right Because, for whatever bizarre reason, this series brings in money... for whatever odd reason that may be. And yeah, given that the super scary big bad at the end there got a seiyuu, it basically just confirms a season three... my god. I can't even tell you if this season was better or worse than season one, like seriously. I think it was worse? Though, saying it was better wouldn't have been much of a compliment either, given the fact that season one wasn't a high bar. Streets won’t forget Spring 2025 as the season where the top 3 most popular shows went head-to-head each week to see which one could be more boring. P.S. This one was a strong contender. |

| Bofurin's emergency meeting with Umemiya and all Four Kings and their groups in tow, the former gets Kotoha's breakfast on the way with Sugishita's help, though he still has quite the spite against Sakura. But back to the main topic, while Umemiya has got the news from Kanji and Tsubaki, this is the highest level of concern that they have since Yamato Endo's arrival, which he is related to Furin High, though this is the wedge between him and the current setting of Bofurin. Essentially, Endo being one of the founders of Furin who managed to to calm the heck out of the infamous delinquent school which became Bofurin, that's the general gist of it as the Four Kings have dealt with Endo's faction before, so much so that his name is heard thoughout Furin and outside of the 4 walls of the school, beating up different gangs and earning the ire together with his elite team, who left the unification made by Umemiya. However, that is easier said than done, because they were the bunch of rejects that Umemiya and his faction NEVER had a chance to deal with them before they dropped out of their 1st year. Sure enough, this only got worse as Endo wants a Furin based on power and strength, and this Shadow is starting to make quite the comeback to haunt them. To that, Sakura would face any danger worth his time, and the time that he spent reconciling with the new Bofurin for the last 2 seasons pivotal, Umemiya has ever been happy to have Sakura with him to face Endo when it comes to the crunch...though missing yet the unknown legend that was never beaten: the strongest delinquent the old Furin has to offer - Chika Takiishi. These two delinquents are nothing but trouble incoming, and if Season 3's going to come for the series (which it severely needs at this point), they will be Sakura and the new generation of Bofurin's biggest competition yet. |

| end of a season and more character development for everyone, we got a new main villain for the next season. have nothing else to say abt this season icl |
 |
| Can’t believe the season is over already man we NEED that season 3 announcement badly. This didn’t feel like a season finale at all! You give us Endo backstory and set up Chika, who tumblr and twitter have been hyping for weeks and then you end on me like that π I know Cloverworks busy next season, but don’t make us wait too long please. Learning about what Furin was like before Ume unified it was really interesting. Again tho, what are these kids learning? Where’s the teachers π battle royale to the death week after week had to be insane. I kinda wanna see a prequel manga based on that. Endo himself seems like the anti-sakura . He reminds me of the quote “ some men just wanna watch the world burn” a guy who prioritizes nothing but strength and chaos just for the fun of it, vs someone who believes strength should be welded to protect others. It’s kinda cheesy but I’m a sucker for these philosophical dichotomies. I love that Ume can’t help, but be moved by Sakura’s determination to protect what’s dear to Bofurin and entrusts the Endo fight to him. Just a testament to how far our boy’s come, so proud of him. They’re really heavily foreshadowing him becoming leader one day and I’m here for it. Ahh, Chika’s here! Cmon you can’t show that crazy ass pile of bodies and then cut to black like that π very much a set up episode more than a traditional finale, but it also was a nice way to build hype for what’s to come and give this story a real direction to go in. Can’t wait for more windbreaker I’ll miss these boys. |

| So Endo wasn't the top dog of his group. Was surprised about the Sakura vs Endo matchup but now it makes sense. This Chika guy's the more powerful one and who Umemiya never won against. Voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya and looks like Rengoku for some reason. Decent second season/cour overall. First half felt better than the later half for me personally even though I was really hyped for Tsubaki's arc but it was a letdown, introduced some nice characters though. Looking forward to s3 whenever that is. |
 |
| My GOAT Hiroshi voicing strongest character in the series, can't ask for more. |
| Chika and Endo are together, then the 2 stronger boys could destroy the Furin!!!! kekeke |
| They gave us some background behind the formation of Bofurin and about the old furin. Chiika and Endo are Aura farming so hard πβ€οΈπ₯ Someone that even Umemiya didn't get to beat.. that's interesting and Chiika's voice actor goes so hard β€οΈπ₯β€οΈπ₯ Sakura only cared about getting into fights but look at him raising his voice about protecting his loved ones at all cost infront of Umemiya like that...so proud of my boi π₯Ήβ€οΈβ€οΈβ¨ Hope we get season 3 real quick. |

I thought this season was a bit better than the first one, still keeping the solid animation. The fight against the Keels was well choreographed and kicked off Sakura’s development, which kept progressing during the Roppo Ichiza arc too. Besides Sakura, the Furin duo that really stood out were Kaji and Tsubakino. The final episodes introduced Yamato Endo, followed by the other beast who showed up at the end, Chika Takiishi. It adapted up to chapter 90, and I’d give it an 8.5. Really hoping for a season 3, 'cause things are about to get wild. Sakura vs. Endo and the best fight: Umemiya vs. Takiishi. also...think about it  |
| Okay this is basically just a transition towards the next season that will obviously come... and Endou isn't the sole menace as this Chika guy is apparently even stronger, why not I guess. |
 |
| As a big Kamiyan fan, Takiishi being voiced by him got me all excited. Can't wait for a season 3! Does anyone know where to start the manga from this point? |

| what a downgrade compared to season 1 |
| γγ«γ½γ³ |
| At least this season finale was more conclusive than the previous season's that ended mid-arc lol. We got more backstory info about Furin, Endo, and the additional mysterious enigma that is Chika. Seeing him in action eventually will be exciting if he's even stronger than Endo. While this is an action-oriented series that I think most of us are invested in for the fights, I did enjoy the parts of the season that were more character development-focused. When there's a large roster of characters it's always nice to find more of them to actually care about. Hopefully we won't have to wait super long for a 3rd season. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| To sum up, I got a feeling that on the beginning we got a cool fight, that there were few episodes where nothing happened, and the last part was fight that did not concern main characters. I have very mixed feelings about this season. Let's see what s03 brings us in the future. |

| @Mari_Max LMAOOO ok so I wasn't the only one who thought of THAT exact thing. Well... a bit like someone mashed Rengoku and Akashi together. lol On an unrelated note: where the HELL do deva and primo even come from??? From what I can tell, those words are NOT being used, so where does English get them? And why? Whoever thought of those for that specific sub needs to reconsider. |
| A bit of an exposition dump to set things up for next season. As far as episodes go it was a bit of a let down and I think that sums up the season. It just didn't feel as strong as the first season. Hopefully the third season (I assume we are getting a third season) will make up for that. |
| Good season finale. Had a blast this season hopefully we get a S3 and seeing the reception is gotten its likely to happen but god knows when. |

| @yellowheartren haha weird. primo is portuguese means cousin π€ and deva is from budism to me π |
| I need the third season immediately! |
 |
| episode preparing us for the next season, I hope it arrives soon, it's too good, this season was very good too, until next time guys <3 |
| hello, just a brazilian boy who likes anime |
| This storytelling for this episode was boring and tiring, most of the episode was wasted by Nirei's bullshit emotion and talking. I would have preferred it to have a serious tone from the start. Anyway, that's the end of another great season. Hoping to get a 3rd season. Btw, I got chills when the first season's ending started to play. I like that song, and it matched well with Sakura's story. |
| Meh, an okay episode. Mainly an introduction to the new antagonists and a setup to the next arc. Takiishi Chika has beautiful hair, I'll give him that. Appreciate getting an explanation on the formation of Bofurin, but the complete absence of teachers and police still make zero sense to me. Overall, a 5-5.5/10 season. A little worse than the first season. The non-fighting, wholesome episodes (ep. 4-7) and the relationships among the characters hard-carried this season for me. The other episodes were whatever. Even though the animation of the fights continued to be amazing, I couldn't care less about what was happening during the fights. The antagonists were dull, and the fighting choreographies weren't nearly as interesting as what was shown in the first season. Still looking forward to the third season, but hopefully the new hyped-up antagonists will be more interesting and won't just be the crazy, chaotic-loving archetype. |
