Manga Background
Satoru Nii launched the Wind Breaker manga in Kodansha's Magazine Pocket app in January 2021. The series has been licensed by Kodansha USA Publishing, which has been releasing it digitally in English since spring 2022. Starting in July, new print volumes will be released monthly.
Manga Synopsis
An adrenaline-filled manga set in a high school for delinquents who are now heroes protecting their town. A fierce, new student arrives at the school determined to fight his way to the top and become the strongest of them all. This edgy, action-packed manga is guaranteed to excite fans of Tokyo Revengers and other stories about high school delinquents.
Haruka Sakura wants nothing to do with weaklings—he's only interested in the strongest of the strong. He's just started at Furin High School, a school of degenerates known only for their brawling strength—strength they use to protect their town from anyone who wishes it ill. But Haruka's not interested in being a hero or being part of any sort of team—he just wants to fight his way to the top!
Upcoming Adaptations
The Wind Breaker manga has also inspired a stage play adaptation that ran from January 1-3 in Osaka and from January 10-19 in Tokyo. Additionally, a new game titled Wind Breaker: Heroic Tales of Delinquents is set to release on March 12 for smartphones and PC.
