This looks good but the story is a bit underwhelming and sidekick Nirei is really annoying!

Ngl, I didn't think it would look this good.

I started reading the manga a while back, but I can't really stick with action packed manga since fights without animation is pretty boring to me, so I haven't really read that far.
I'm also usually not a fan of the shounen genre, because I seldom like the main character, but in Wind Breaker, Sakura is actually likable to me. I love how he starts blushing after getting praised or thanked. He's the embodiment of hard shell soft core with a sprinkle of comedy and the skills to back-up his loud mouth (so far)

I don't expect anything overly deep from it, but for a story that's about smashing each other's faces in while being surrounded by deliquents, it looks entertaining.

Is this even a delinquent anime? I haven't seen a delinquent anime before (unless Akira counts), but these people don't feel like delinquents at all.

All I've seen and heard tells me they're just school kids who are really good at fighting and doles out vigilante justice... If anything, this kind of feels like a superhero story, just without superpowers, like Kick-Ass or something. It's hard to imagine any of them breaking any laws or bullying some weakling from class.

The show does look gorgeous, though. Really like the art style and the quality.

The episode continued to go on with amazing fight scenes good cliffhanger at the end and the awkwardness of the protagonist building up on a nice story (especially since I haven't read the manga)

So this is that one annoying weakling encyclopedia guy who won't stop babbling about shit for one second, can I get an option to mute him?

Anyway here we go with the first fight for Sakura in furin and is that Baji? The resemblance is definitely there.

Btw the ed song visual, so the one Kotoha chan knows is a sensei it seems? Please be her brother, please. I need her for Sakura.

Clover works is doing a fantastic job at adapting this show. I really thought the delinquent shows were going down the drain, but this one rose up especially after the nightmare of Bucchigiri last season. I’m really happy we got back to back episodes this week it really felt good. Again keep up the great work!

Haruka has cemented himself within the community, though there's a newbie of Furin as well: Nirei Akihiko, who is a mainstay within the community with his jokes. A close-knitted commmunity like that has Haruka all skeptical of why gangsters like him would be much endeared within the community, until a call for help brings him straight to Nirei, who gets pounded by some delinquents outside of town, further exerting his position and goal of reaching the top. A gofer from before, Nirei changed gears from Bofurin to Furin...but what doesn't is his joking nature.

Both Haruka and Nirei stepping into Furin as 1st Years alongside familiar people, but the former as an outsider, he's prepared to face for the onslaught on the journey to reach the top. And the first one to greet them is Suo Hayato, though he can also joke, he's a certified leader of the class, but trouble doesn't need to wait for Sakura to arrive: Kyotaro Sugishita is one to start challenging him.

Haruka's violent nature is shaping his reputation in Bofurin, hopefully for the better.

actually, I have mixed feelings because on the one hand it may be cool, but I wonder which way it's going because at the beginning we hear about a guy who wants to be a hooligan but goes to the school of city heroes?

Those two guys was legit Baji and Takemitchi, no one can convince me otherwise. I see some other resemblances too

This show is already proving to be excellent at serving goons for Sakura to beat up. I'm glad we have Akihiko here now to dish some exposition.

Not as much action in comparison to the opening of this series, but I guess things gotta slow down at some point.

Look at Haruka being the good samaritan that he is helping out an old lady that claims that she can’t walk despite having better acrobatic skills than the average young adult. And we get to meet some of the new freshman in Haruka’s class.

Let’s start off with Nirei Akihiko since he’s the main one of this episode outside of Haruka himself. Despite his fashion, he’s still the type of guy to lay his life on the life for the sake of helping others but unlike Haruka, he doesn’t have the strength to vanquish justice. Lucky for him, Haruka has that strength in folds and is hungry for a good fight.

Now things truly start as Haruka has entered Furin High and we’ve been introduced to some of the main students of the school. We got the eyepatch wearing Suo Hayato, the calisthenics guy Tsuguera Taiga, the pink hared dude Kiryu Tsuki, and finally the first Furin student to pick a fight with our main guy, Kyotaro Sugishita. How will all of this go down? Will Haruka suffer his first loss? And most importantly, WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE TEACHERS?!

It kinda hurt seeing Sakura drop all the food the people from the town gave him. It was all for a great cause but it still hurt lol.

I’m also loving his tsundere side, his reactions are the best.

This is a pretty good solid episode, love the way the MC stands up for his friend in a fight, which only took less than a second to wrap up and now that we’re finally seeing him going to school, people already heard about him after the first incident in town happened, so now I can’t wait to see where it goes from here.

Nice follow-up episode but I hope they can find the excuse to start fighting that's not "saving woman from getting harassed".

I wish I could enroll into an all-boy (is it?) yankee school like this. But I'm not there to be a top dog, I just want to be their dog.
Agreed with that TEME

Imma use my notebook for a bit~

1- Nirei's shirt is awesome but I'm so glad he's non the mc
2- Kotoha nee-chan's dishes look tastyyy if she was a guy I'd be down bad
3- I'd take Suou over Di Caprio any day

Some unexpected slice of life-ish moments, welcomed on my part and more nuanced than in the manga.

When he brought the "Top Secret" book out for his measurements and gathered he was 169cm tall.. I sometimes forget how small people over there look "regular sized" cuz the average height is lower. I'm almost an entire foot taller than him(198cm).

1. I love the Spanish Dub! It so Latino that just with the way they say things I was having fun with the dialects.

2. I hope I wasn’t the only one who noticed this: the kaiju no 8 Kafka form graffiti in the wall of Furin in minute 16:17

I'm really loving this anime so far! Thank you Cloverwork

Poor Sakura doesn't know how to accept a thank you since he never hears it.

I looove Suo-san! He's so cute. Leonardo DiCaprio had me dying. The blondie is funny too tbh. I'm glad he's there to explain why Sakura acts the way he does.

So we see that MC isn't the typical weak shounen character and it's this klutz. Thank goodness he wasn't the type to spout that friendship and weak rubbish like that klutz. Breath of fresh air, good to see some wholesome moments in the mix too before the story truly starts. Good episode

I have upheld my belief to how good this anime. But, it seems like the anime has only good cover in term of animation and sound. The story itself and character development are sucks

Well it's not too bad of a start for him, he made a blond friend who's cool even though he isn't that strong, and the rest of the class seems fine, looks like there's already an opponent for him though lol
