Wind Breaker season 1 recap

Wind Breaker season 1 introduced fans to protagonist Haruka Sakura, a first-year student at Furin High School. He first met local business owner Kotoha Tachibana before attending his first days of school at Furin High. Here, he met several classmates who’d become his close friends, such as Kyotaro Sugishita, Akihiko Nirei, Hayato Suo, Mitsuki Kiryu, and Taiga Tsugeura. He also met Furin leaders Ren Kaji, Hajime Umemiya, Toma Hiragi, and others.

After making these initial introductions, Sakura found himself at odds with the Shishitoren, especially leaders Jo Togame and Choji Tomiyama. This led to Sakura, Umemiya, Suo, Sugishita, and Hiragi getting involved in a tournament style fight with the pair and other members of Shishitoren. Furin ended up sweeping all members of Shishitoren in the fight, with Sakura’s fight against Togame and Umemiya’s against Choji being especially brutal.

In the process, Choji and Jo’s tragic backstories were revealed. Thankfully, Sakura and Umemiya proved instrumental in healing this emotional damage, with the two groups becoming allies in the aftermath. Sakura then met all of the top Furin members, known as the Four Kings. The season then ended with Sakura discovering a classmate planned to take on a rival gang KEEL by himself for the sake of a friend, and Sakura and others deciding to help out too.

What to expect from Wind Breaker season 2 episode 1 (speculative)

Wind Breaker season 2 episode 1 is titled Anger. The premiere will continue from where it left off as Anzai reports his troubles to the first-years at Furin High. According to Anzai, his childhood friend might be in trouble with a new gang named KEEL.

So, Sakura and his friends march toward the gang's hideout, hoping to save Anzai's friend. As they reach the hideout, the KEEL members greet them, and a fight is declared between these two groups. Natori Shingo, KEEL's leader, attacks Sakura while everyone else tries their best to defend themselves from this new challenge.
