Wind Breaker is a manga series that is serialized in Magazine Pocket, the web version of Weekly Shonen Magazine.
It started serializing since January 2021 and there are currently 6 issues of Wind Breaker. As of March 2022, over 1.22 million copies were sold and it gathers people’s attention.
Wind Breaker was ranked 20th in the web manga section for the Tsugi ni Kuru Manga Award 2021, 3rd in the Japan's Bookstore Employees Rank 2022, and 9th in the 5th “Manga Ranking I Want You to Animate”!! It started becoming very popular rapidly since the last half of 2021!!
Over 1 million copies were sold in the first year! It is still increasing the sales and getting popular rapidly! I am excited to introduce the outline! Let’s check the story together!
What kind of story is Wind Breaker?
The story takes place in a dangerous town.
There was an old sign standing at the entrance of the town
The story starts in a town in modern time. The entrance of this town has a sign saying......
The main character is Sakura Haruka.
Why did he come to such a bad town? What is the reason?
The reason why the town is not safe was because of a high school called Furin high school that many punk kids go. The main character, Sakura Haruka, heard of it and decided to enter the high school.”
Haruka’s appearance was unique ever since he was born. He had odd eyes and his hair was half white and half black. He was always treated unfairly and people kept a distance from him due to his “different” looks.
He felt that he was not recognized properly but being a strong fighter made him recognized by others no matter what. So he thinks Furin High school is the place for him because being good at fighting is to be recognized in this school. However......
Furin high school had been renewed.
Students at Furin high school organized “Wind Breaker” to drive punk kids away from the town.
Punks in town came up to Haruka when he was still new. Surprisingly, students from Furin high school saved him.
Currently, Furin high school is no longer a school for bad kids. The students organized “Wind Breaker” to drive away punk kids came in town. They are like a windbreak which is trees for protection against the strong wind.
They fight just like Haruka does, but they are loved and needed as Wind Breaker in town. What’s the difference between them and Haruka? Someone said to him, “Because you are alone.
He wants to be like a Wind Breaker. Fighting is the only thing he thinks he is good at, but he wants to be proud of himself for something else. So he decided to join the Wind Breaker.
Wow, that is a crazy high school!! I wonder if Haruka can join the Wind Breaker or not. It has beautiful illustration, and it is easy to understand the story. I am sure you will be into this manga very quickly!
We haven’t heard any plan about its anime adaptation yet, but the Wind Breaker goods are being released almost 300 items. Please check the manga and also the goods before being made into anime!!
