| Words can be encouraging after all. Sakura needed that for this fight as he looks like the underdog here. They took this episode's fight into its climax and emotions were running high. Even with just two episodes in, Sakura had to be the leader here for his squad. It's in blood. This episode gave season finale vibes even though the season just started. |

| Pure chills man Cloverworks delivered one of the best Wind Breaker episodes yet and an absolutely perfect end to this Nagato retrieval arc. Couldn’t have asked for more, everyone got their time to shine, the animation was insane, that OST elevated all the emotional moments and Sakura handled his first leadership role very well. Can’t wait to see where we go now. My goat Sakura really put in a shift today. Handled his fight, made sure to keep Suo in check and that no one went too far in their fights as well. Bofurin may have been initially outnumbered, but they had an actual good cause they were fighting for unlike Keel who were just led by fear. Speaking of KEEL leadership let’s all laugh at Shingo’s dumbass 😂 😂 talked all that shit about wanting the real Kaji to come out and guess what, he got em. Couldn’t handle em and is now out colder than a goddamn polar bear. What an idiot. Cloverworks absolutely cooked with that fight, one of if not the best in the series thus far. We really just met them, but I got a lil emotional with Anzai and Nagato’s making up scene. When you think about it, Bofurin went through all this just to help out one of their own and that’s so beautiful to me. It didn’t personally benefit any of them, but their homie wanted his friend back and they made it happen. Also just shows how much Sakura has opened his own heart up, he really NEEDED to see Anzai, Nagato and Tsuchiya back together again because that’s the sort of bond he’s always wanted. Phenomenal episode, wonder where we go from here, who’s our next gang of delinquents 🤔 P.S Mitsuki teasing the one Keel dude about how no girl would ever look his way is still cracking me up. Love all the points on the gender spectrum represented in this show. |

Same here Was wondering if S1 could have ended here during this arc instead 🤔 |
| Another amazing episode! With the end of this one, we’ve finally accomplished what couldn’t be done in the last season. BOFURI’s first-years got their asses kicked until the upperclassmen arrived and lent a hand, which totally changed the tide of battle—and KEEL was destroyed. Sakura’s leadership and trust in those around him have grown so much compared to how he was when it all began. |

| I just want to say that Pink hair looked cool with hair down and that suo walking animation was so badass. Since they concluded the fight I'm curious what will they focus on upcoming episodes |
| just fun fights haha. |

| The fight concluded, and we were the victors at the end. Good job, boys. Everyone fought hard. Their leader looked kinda crazy during his fight. LOL. But he got what he deserved in the end. So, it's nice. Production-wise, it was slightly better than the episode before. Hoping to see it gets better and better going forward. |

| no time to fall asleep i really enjoyed this ep E2 (8/10) |
| otakuweek (100k Followers) on insta for News /best recom etc just have a look, you won't regret it... Link below: https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh |
| Lol all the Keel got destroyed and that friend has been saved, I guess this concludes the arc now. |
 |
| I know it's just a bunch of guys punching each other but it feels so good to watch haha. And oh my god Suou just DRIPS style and aura... I think he's still my fave, such a sophisticated character! What was Nirei doing this whole episode tho? 🤔 |
 |
| Much better episode with less CGI bullshit but it's still vandalism waxing poetical about comradery and what not. Story seems to be shaping up to be about MC becoming a captain or whatever and that every other episode will be fights like this. I'll give an episode or two a shot more to actually start developing some story other than they kicked us we kick them. If that fails, am dropping it. |
| Nice ep, besides the great fight animation, I really like the way they highlighted Sakura's character development and how you can't do it alone. Lean into your friends shoulder and shoulder those burdens with them. Can't be a one man army. 10/10 |

| Perfectly adapted once again! I love it so much 🥹 |

| Looking forward to next episode. |

| The episode literally shut me up speechless due to how hyped i was throughout the whole episode from start to finish, ear-to-ear grinning every single time Ren punched Shingo's face, obliterating it completely by the time he went unconscious. Bro's 100% waking up with a broken nose, in addition to a few possible bone fractures in terms of his skull. But, serves them right, for all what they did to Atsushi, although we still don't really know much about the situation, all we got is Masaki having outstanding friends who had come to the rescue, with Atsushi being eventually saved. Hope we get a few our answers in regards to the situation between the three friends, Masaki, Mio, and Atsushi. Curious as to know three things in regards to these 3. Firstly, the background between these 3, secondly, the situation that forced Atsushi to be a KEEL's stress-relieving pet, and thirdly, what Atsushi is gonna do from now onwards. Joining Bofurin? Still be a KEEL to climax out of the masochist he is? Quite curious, so very excited for the upcoming episode. Hope we get all our questions answered! |
| There's still not much of a story but dang it, it's just so immensely satisfying to watch the "good" guys beating up the "bad" guys, with sakuga animation. P.S. At some stage they really REALLY need to look into practicing with weapons of opportunity, just to level the playing field. |

| Solid episode overall! My only gripe is that the OST consistently has vocals on the tracks, which is fine during fights with little to no dialogue (those butt rock-esque songs fit really well), but during the resolution/emotional dialogue/wind down, it seems like the audio balancing of that (reprised) track is a bit off as it matches the volume of the voice acting. Not the biggest issue obviously, but it makes it hard to listen to the characters and tune out the song’s vocals >.< Might just be an ADHD thing |
| Keel all bark no bite. |
 |
| Our kid grew up more in this "fight"! kekeke |
| Aaawesome :D The boys arrrrr back ( and they looking for trouble) Sakura becoming a leader, a thing |
   |
| Amazing episode man the fights were insane 😭🙏 |
| The head honcho of KEEL, Shingo Natori vs. Kaji, this is one fierce fight. The ravaging of Bofurin vs. KEEL continues as Sakura and the 1st Years having Kaji and the rest to fill in for them and to regain their morale, it's quite the boost they've been looking for to finally put the enemy gang in their place and turn the tide around. Kaji having his moment against Shingo, being reinforced into the beast that he was and is now, it took guts for the latter to bring out the animal in himself, though Bofurin won at the end of the day. At the very least, Nagano's humanity is brought back, even if it's a warning from Sakura and Kaji themselves. A resounding fight, Wind Breaker style. |
