Wind. Breaker is a show about a kid that loves fighting and implements key characteristics from othe manga and shows like Tokyo revengers this is a short show but enjoyable in every way the animation is flashy and the story is exciting it is a joy to watch and is an underrated show with a growing story and I am excited to see the character growth of Sakura . The main and the side characters all have exciting backstory's I don't want to spoil the show but this is a must watch that can be enjoyed by the whole family even your grandma or fish will enjoy the animation and story In short just watch it now.
Whether you will like a show or not can only be found out by watching it. I think this anime is doing a great job so far!
As of now the thing that impressed me a lot is the choreography of all the fights we've seen so far. The graphics are great! The cast is really cool in my opinion and it's not that the side characters are just bland ones to fill up the cast. They all have they're own good personality and most importantly fighting style!
At first I thought it was not going to be much of a story and just simply throwing hands, but now with 8 episodes released this has changed. I won't get into it because of spoilers but throughout the episodes the character development has gotten very good already.
I can't wait to see more of this and i'll for sure pick up the manga afterwards!

The thing about this show is that you just need to accept that its a cringy delinquent anime that is written for (imo) late middle schoolers / early highschoolers. The dialouge, some character designs, and some character arcs can be cringy, tacky, and somewhat overdone. There is no reality in the world building -- there are no teachers, police, or parents mentioned at all. It doesn't make sense why these kids are able to do what they do-- HOWEVER!!
If you just turn off your brain for a second and accept that you are about to watch a delinquent anime that is unafraid to rely on tropes, this show is unironically really good.
This show has the best hand-to-hand combat I've ever seen animated. The opening fight scene is worth looking up and watching on its own, even if you don't watch the show..
The friendships between the characters don't feel forced and actually feel quite healthy and strong, which I really enjoy. The MC's character flaws are handled quite well and are not super dragged out. The character design, although occasionally somewhat tacky and predictable, is generally solid. There are some surprisingly solid lessons about leadership that are delivered quickly and effectively.
Accept this show for what it is and the characters will grow on you. Sakura made me cringe a bit at the beginning, now I'm relentlessly endeared how he's really just an insecure kid figuring his stuff out.
Also, there is a gay character that presents as a woman that is handled quite well!!!!
Overall, once you accept its faults, Wind Breaker is well animated and has some great characters. I would reccomend it for a fun watch.

Say what you will about the characters or story. Though there been a couple parts that have got me in my feels.
The thing I want to rave about though is the fights. They are so well done that the only words I can thing to describe them is "beautifully Choreographed" I know they are drawn, but that's how good they are.
It's martial arts fighting styles, a Kung fu anime! I love it and have to give props to the animators. Animating the body moving like that and making it look so amazing takes so much talent! Can't wait to see more.
If you liked the fights in samurai Champloo I think you'll love this. And the "I didn't know the human body was so warm" I almost cried. Someone hug that kid for God sakes!

Good for a start. It has good graphics. And the story is not bad in its genre. The characterization of the main character is convincing. But I hope the characterization of the other characters is also convincing. The pace of the story seems slow. The story is not very deep but it can be entertaining. The variety of characters is not bad, but the logic of the story is not convincing in my opinion. The story is a bit like Tokyo Revengers. The reason for the characters to fight is not enough at all. And even the main character's reason for fighting is cliche. The main character's goals are not interesting but tolerable. Overall, this anime can be watched for fun.
