The first season of the anime TV adaptation of Windbreaker is speeding toward the finish line, with only four episodes left to close out the 13-episode run of weekly Friday broadcasts. As one of the most anticipated premieres of the spring anime lineup, the high school-based series based on Satoru Nee’s manga series is delivering some of the most satisfying episodes centered around an action-packed rivalry that may not be apparent to anyone at first glance.
With each bout and showdown, all nine episodes so far have opened a different book of character-centric narratives and nuances. However, every satisfying ride must end somewhere. Before that happens, the Wind Breaker anime plans to put on a spectacular performance. As the impeccable fight scenes combine with seamless animation, each flying punch in Wind Breaker tells a story that continues to scale new heights every episode.
Crunchyroll describes the series as follows: “Welcome to Furin High School, an institution infamous for its population who resolve every conflict with a show of strength. Some of the students have even formed a group, the Bofurin, that protects the town. Haruka Sakura, a first-year student from out of town, is only interested in one thing: fighting her way to the top.”

Wind Breaker Episode 9 Brief Description
After watching the latest episode, one fan described the 9th entry on X/Twitter as “cinema”. They were particularly impressed by the “emotional aspect of this series”, reflecting the general feeling of emotional attachment many people have with the show over the past nine episodes.
Episode 9 kicked off with a massive fight between Umemiya and Choji while the others watched silently, holding their breath and waiting for the outcome of the epic bout.
As their face-off continued, Umemiya’s comments about Choji’s weightless fists and ineffective strikes forced him to have an emotional breakdown. Delving deeper into a reflective mood, he eventually got the better of his opponent, with Umemiya’s constructive criticism playing a key role in his rise.
Umemiya soon takes over, but not before she bumps heads with him and brings up a crazy memory of the past when they first met each other in the Furin vs. Shishitoren battle.
In the end, the Shishitoren and Bofurin conflict is resolved. Therefore, episode 10 will likely focus on the students’ perspective as the next chapter zooms in on the culture at Furin High, with more character-focused stories coming to the forefront.
