The story follows Haruka Sakura, a headstrong high school student who transfers to Furin High, a school infamous for its delinquent students. Expecting to fight his way to the top, he discovers that Furin’s fighters, the Bofurin gang, protect their town rather than terrorize it.

What Should You Expect From Wind Breaker Season 2?
The first season’s finale delves into the challenges faced by Anzai, Sakura’s classmate. Anzai’s childhood friend, Nagato, gets entangled with dangerous members of KEEL. Determined to rescue Nagato, Anzai initially attempts to confront the gang alone but gets overpowered. After learning of Anzai’s struggles, Sakura and their classmates rally together, showcasing their unity and resolve to assist a friend in need. The first season ends on this cliffhanger as Umemiya, Bofurin’s leader, watches the first-years leave to confront KEEL.
Season 2 will continue the arc as Bofurin will enter the domain of their enemies. The season will also reveal KEELโs leader, a ruthless fighter, challenging Furinโs ideals of strength used for protection rather than violence. As shown in the trailer, the two opposing groups will engage in intense battles as the conflict forces Sakura to grow as a fighter and a leader, reinforcing his belief in defending those in need. The second season is also expected to cover the Sakura/Tsubakino Arc, where the story introduces Sakura’s new rival, who will strengthen his resolve to improve himself.
