Final episode!! πŸ”₯

It's a cliffhanger and season 2 will air next year 2025!

It was an amazing 3 months with Wind Breaker. I like the MC Sakura-san compared to other yankii shows. Animation by Studio CloverWorks are always amazing. πŸ’š

@Genkai_Haven can’t tell if you’re joking because it seems like the viewers just discovered fire after watching WB…

Out, QP, Worst (literally exact same plot as WB but executed with a more grittier premise), To not die

Less delinquent and more gang activity: Castle, Baek XX, Lookism, Boss in School

Some time ago I was looking for an anime with good hand to hand fights, and I think Cloverworks did a decent job. That said, the fights on this anime are good but I'm not interested on the characters, and I can't see how the story can develop from here. Not pretty sure if I'll watch the second season. 6/10.

Good episode, as I said before: it's quite predictable
It was obvious that another group/gang like the Shishitoren was going to appear, in this case it's called Keel and as I also said, they were going to leave it open for a 2nd season... something that many animes do.
We will see why the friend joined and stayed in that gang and what will be the new characters they will face in the next season.

PS: I have no idea about Tokyo Revengers but this anime was good, but it's not a big deal for me either

You all know its on and off anime, its looks great when fights is going on and look totally slow and boring when fights not happeninig, still I started this anime before the hype and following from ep 1, really enjoyable anime, as I haven't seen Tokyo Revengers, so I liiked it more,
For me its solid 8/10 anime

Animations= 10/10
Story= 6/10

I really like how they teased a bit of what’s to come with this last episode. It certainly left me wanting to see another episode.

I’m happy Clover Work Studio already confirmed season 2. Can’t wait to see what they end up cooking for us!

Man, Sakura is such a good boy. I'm going to miss our badass tsundere mc.

And to think I was going to pass on this show because I thought it would be another Tokyo Revengers but it ended up being one of the two big surprises of the season for me. Fun, wholesome, awesome, it was such a great series that was lucky enough to fall into the hands of CloverWorks to look as amazing as it did.

If there was one thing I wasn't that much of a fan of, it's Chouji's drama. I feel like it was a bit too much but I can live with it.

I think I read about a second cour somewhere, so it's nice to have official confirmation and with how this first part ended, you can bet I'm excited for that season 2!

Damn that Sakura-chasing-after-classmate-down-the-staircase scene was crazy.

A mostly chill episode, basically a setup for the next arc since a sequel has already been confirmed. Overall, this show was enjoyable; there's a lot to be desired when it comes to the storyline and characters' backstories & motivations (I'm also still bothered about where all the teachers and police are??? lol???), but the animation, directing, cinematography, and character designs are fantastic, plus the badass tsundere MC and unexpected wholesomeness of this show make it a fun watch. The whole "bros got your back" theme isn't anything new in delinquent shows, but I think this anime does a particularly good job of showing the development of a lone wolf MC who learns to help others and in turn, ask others for help. Anyways, looking forward to the second season!

the first battle for Sakura's class as president, but they will not carry the Furin name, and purely help friends. strong solidarity in their friendship.
A cliffhanger episode, but worth looking forward to next season.

Second season announced and that's what really matters, about the episode you start to see that Sakura is starting to change for real and especially that her classmates trust him a lot to the point of going with him to the first war that is approaching because now it's on a large scale, since against Shishitoren it was a certain group of people and not two factions altogether, for me the next arc against Kell is the best because of the entire fight itself and how it changes Sakura. It's a shame that we will have to wait until 2025 to see this first war, as the real war would only be in a possible 4th season. but I'm excited, I love the manga so much and I loved the anime and the final scene of them going and Sakura really being the leader was awesome......

I don't know why they can't just say they want to get revenge for their friends, at least fit with the gangs ethos. But, that's the thing, probably that scene culminates my feelings with the story. I actually hoping they didn't do a gang kind of settings in a graffiti filled school which totally implied they are a gang but instead a dojo or common school which probably more suited to all of these honoured students pretending to be a wannabe gangster

7/10
I cannot bring myself to rate anime that I have completed below 5. Well, it just because I have use up my precious time to watch it. so, the worse you will get from me is 5 (changes may apply)

The blushing MC anime comes to an end with a promising 2nd season. It felt like a slice of life for me, but with a lot of action. Wholesome show, not tense, not the best, just wholesome and comfy to watch.

The audacity to end this turd with the, by far, best episode of the show and on a cliffhanger to boot.

First few eps were alright 6/10.
Shishitoren tournament with flashbacks and MC losing, by score, against the vice was a 1/10.
The few episodes after Shishitoren were 5/10 and the last ep was a 6.5/10.

Pretty bad anime overall 3/10.
Shishitoren arc reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly sucked.

Clover (Hirakawa Tetsuhiro 2007)

Even Lookism is a better deliquent manga than this. But that already got an anime which ends before the deliquent stuff started.
Which is hilarious cuz Lookism is to 99% thug war mumbo jumbo.

@ST63LTH

If i was filthy rich, i'd hire some top quality studio, after getting the ok from the authors of course, to adapt both manga. All 10 seasons each. 12 eps per 40 chapters or so.
Tho, been a while since i read OUT. No clue how many chapters it got now. I just wanna see those in anime form.

Attack on Titan Before the Fall is another anime i'd love to see the light of day.

Alr, it's finished. And: Season 2 announced for 2025, there we gooo!

This Season was good, like the animations, fights etc.

For me as a reader, they've done justice to the manga with this adaption.

And KEEL-Arc already teasered. This will become interesting next year-

I really enjoyed it. Not perfect but still pretty solid and really fun. It's fun to root for these characters. The emotional stakes are cheesy but again, it's fun to root for them and get swept up in the "drama". The VAs were also great choices and did a great job.

IMO too many people constantly complained about "no action" episodes and lack of logic in the behavior of the characters. Yeah, it's a silly shounen anime with some slice of life moments. Now that these people have a good idea of how the methodology of the show works after 13 ENTIRE, WHOLE episodes, I hope they won't be back for Season 2. It's annoying to read the same thing over and over and over again. These aren't real criticisms. They're just yapping about how this anime isn't THEIR thing, and those kinds of comments are always reductive when they snowball.

Speaking of actual criticisms in the anime production though, I do think the pacing was a bit janky for some of the talking moments. I think it could have been a bit snappier. I'm also wondering if they used AI art for some of the school graffiti. I don't see how they could devote real artists to do all of that, but I'm still kinda disappointed if they used AI art.

STILL LIKED IT THOUGH!

@BlueSnow93 Sure, you can laugh at anyone who calls it a masterpiece; I wouldn't call it one personally.

But on the flipside, a 3/10 overall and a 1/10 for the tournament eps? That's just as much of an unserious exaggeration.

Why did you keep watching when you found multiple eps in a row, and clearly the main premise of the season, to be 1/10? Was the last ep of the show REALLY worth it for you to watch 12 full episodes beforehand?

What a terrible way to end a season. Teasing next season is one thing but beginning one story and stopping before it gets going. Should have been 12 episodes.

It had decent first episode and 1-2 good episode in the middle rest was very boring and meh.
@WaterMage_658 Exactly my thoughts. Already beginning the story in the finale and expecting us to care about it enough to carry any hype to season 2 is wild.

It really didn't feel like a finale to a season at all. I actually had to double check if there would be more than 13 episodes because it felt so...casual, that I thought there would be a 14th episode.
It was a fun watch, but it wasn't the best. What's more, in some episodes, it felt like the writers of the show behaved like the viewers were dumb. It was absolutely unnecessary to explain Anzai's backstory (word by word btw) three times in the span of 10 minutes.

Episodes 1-2 seemed promising, but the anime really lost momentum going forward. The show fas fun, but I was hoping it would be better than this.

Ayo. I thought this episode gonna be more about other team especially with the introduction of other Four King. But its just a glimpse and more for the introduction of the next arc where Sakura lead the whole first class against its crisis, saving their mate.

Pretty cool final, for the delinquent anime standard, ngl. Its more than i expect to be just a flat end. Gonna end this one above my shitshitoren arc impression, since really looking forward for the next part qith those cool cut at the end. So yeah, strong at start, boring with the shitshitoren part, and this shall return what Wind Breaker miss at the middle.

The Four Kings ended up being a lame hierarchical thing after all but it was also a blink and you miss it moment so it just seemed like a waste of time for all the hype. Decent recovery with the rest of the episode, not sure it was quite up to being a season ending cliffhanger but since season 2 next year is guaranteed I can't be too bothered. I'm looking forward to Bofurin duking it out with some crazy bastards in KEEL. I'm expecting something a lot different from a tidy tournament.

Overall I really liked the show. It of course had top notch animation with the fights, some of the best martial arts combat I've seen animated even if not all fights were created equal (Furin leader vs Lion leader was kind of awkward especially with the size differences.) I would've preferred a more straight up gang instead of this less believable, almost silly youth wing of a neighborhood watch protecting old ladies and rescuing lost kitties.

Oh well, I still enjoyed what we got, the camaraderie with Bofurin is solid with a lot of decent characters and Sakura is a great anchor for it all. I've enjoyed seeing him pushed out of his comfort zone while doing his awkward best to accept the friendship, faith, and responsibility he's being given and step up. He's already grown a lot from just his "beat up everyone and be the top" mentality from early on. As awesome as the action is some of the best moments have been less epic ones like Sakura's totally uncool, shy "leave it to me."

Looking forward to the next season.

They're good friends who will help you even if you don't ask for their help. That's a good sign of a team that wants to help. Can't wait to see these KEEL guys and what's the deal with them. Sakura is taking the frontline this time around which makes me excited for him and happy at the same time.
