I was looking for a new anime to enjoy. This is a really good show to watch. A decent plot and some awesome fight scenes. I'm halfway through the season and it's been good to watch and enjoy. The characters are interesting and it's not the typical story with the normal story line. It is a fascinating fighting anime. If you enjoy a good action sequence and character development you'll enjoy this one. Did I mention this anime isn't about mystical creatures, alien invasions, just some students wanting a better community for better living and a better school and will to fight to get it all at all cost.
Wind. Breaker is a show about a kid that loves fighting and implements key characteristics from othe manga and shows like Tokyo revengers this is a short show but enjoyable in every way the animation is flashy and the story is exciting it is a joy to watch and is an underrated show with a growing story and I am excited to see the character growth of Sakura . The main and the side characters all have exciting backstory's I don't want to spoil the show but this is a must watch that can be enjoyed by the whole family even your grandma or fish will enjoy the animation and story In short just watch it now.
Say what you will about the characters or story. Though there been a couple parts that have got me in my feels.
The thing I want to rave about though is the fights. They are so well done that the only words I can thing to describe them is "beautifully Choreographed" I know they are drawn, but that's how good they are.
It's martial arts fighting styles, a Kung fu anime! I love it and have to give props to the animators. Animating the body moving like that and making it look so amazing takes so much talent! Can't wait to see more.
If you liked the fights in samurai Champloo I think you'll love this. And the "I didn't know the human body was so warm" I almost cried. Someone hug that kid for God sakes!

Whether you will like a show or not can only be found out by watching it. I think this anime is doing a great job so far!
As of now the thing that impressed me a lot is the choreography of all the fights we've seen so far. The graphics are great! The cast is really cool in my opinion and it's not that the side characters are just bland ones to fill up the cast. They all have they're own good personality and most importantly fighting style!
At first I thought it was not going to be much of a story and just simply throwing hands, but now with 8 episodes released this has changed. I won't get into it because of spoilers but throughout the episodes the character development has gotten very good already.
I can't wait to see more of this and i'll for sure pick up the manga afterwards!

The setting is truly ridiculous. Each school district is a gang turf. You've got students that attend these schools, but there are no teachers to be found or classes being held. It's basically one giant hangout for gangsters. You got these massive street brawls involving dozens of people, but cops are non-existent. In fact, the townspeople rely on the gangs themselves for protection. Gratefully so. The members of these gangs are also incredible fighters. I'm talking pro level MMA, veteran kickboxing, highly-trained combatants. Throw in over-the-top drama along with some superficially deep philosophy on having "conversations with your fists", or what it takes to get to the top and you've got a pretty good idea on what this show is all about.
And yet despite all that, it's entertaining. If you can accept the absurdity for what it is and don't think too hard about it there's a decent show here. The animation alone is worth your time. It's utterly superb. A lot of animators take shortcuts when it comes to action scenes because it's easier to draw. As long as the audience gets the basic gist, that's good enough. Well, not in this series. They really went the extra mile for these fights. More than that, each major character has a unique fighting style, and they go through the trouble of showing that in great detail. Besides being visually stunning, it gives these people an extra layer of substance that elevates what would otherwise be something closer to generic or two-dimensional. I mean, they're still pretty generic, but since combat is a major feature of the show fighting style becomes a part of their personality. It definitely helps.
There's nothing novel about this series. They use familiar tropes you'll recognize immediately. The story is also nothing to write home about. However, they put these elements together so well that you won't really mind. This is a fun, easily digestible show. It doesn't need to be any more than that.
