Wind Breaker Miscellaneous

If you look at its background, Wind Breaker itself is not that special. Like other 'generic' manga, this title emerged from the writing career process of a mangaka in general.

He is Satoru Nii, an illustrator who is 'on the rise' after his debut work succeeded in becoming the winner at a competition event for emerging Japanese comic artists. That's where he got recognition and publication opportunities.

Before Wind Breaker was finally born, he had already 'experimented' with several other works. However, this is the only title that has been able to bring it to this point.

A formula like this has actually become a 'template' for the manga industry in the land of the rising sun. The newcomer manga artist competition is used as a talent search event to attract new talents.

First published on the online platform Magazine Pocket, This title is classified as a contemporary manga. Yep, publishing no longer relies solely on print media (magazines), but prioritizes digital media.

Since its online debut in 2021, this means that this manga has been running for approximately three years and is still continuing to this day. This indicates a good reception coming from the audience manga.

Wind Breaker Plot and Setting

Wind Breaker itself tells the story of a teenage protagonist named Haruka Sakura. Having an eccentric appearance, he is an active young man who likes to act out.

Actually he is a good young man. However, because of his appearance, he was often bullied and received unpleasant treatment from the people around him.

As a result, he became a person who liked to be alone and individualistic. When he finally entered high school, there he also chose to enter Furin School.

This school is known as an 'outcast' institution: a place where delinquent children study. As a result, the academic aspect is not something that is emphasized there, but instead fighting ability.

Interested in a scheme like that, Haruka was finally interested in registering there. After being accepted without a hitch, he dreams of becoming a delinquent king and conquering the school.

But, instead of finding a school filled with trouble-seeking brats who love brawls, it turns out that Furin High School is actually revered and liked by the local community.

This is because, even though the students like to make trouble, their aim is to protect the surrounding area from the threat of bandits. Instead of encountering thugs, it turns out the school contains heroes.

It was at this school, nicknamed Bo-Furin (Wind Breaker), that he finally learned and tried to change himself: to be the best, the path of delinquency is not the answer but benevolence towards others.

From this explanation, fans of the high-school (SMA) genre like this will definitely be aware that Wind Breaker is the anti-thesis of the mainstreak pattern of student fighting comics like Crow Zero!

So can the protagonist achieve his dream of becoming number one in Bo-Furin? What obstacles and challenges will he encounter in achieving it?
