▍About Wind Breaker
Satoru Nii began serializing the manga on Kodansha’s Magazine Pocket manga website in January 2021. The manga has been published digitally in English by Kodansha USA since April 26, 2022.
Haruka Sakura is a tough young man who is only interested in the strongest fighters. He has enrolled in Fūrin High School, known for its rowdy reputation and students who use their physical strength to protect the town from any harm. However, Haruka has no interest in being a hero or a team player. Instead, he wants to prove himself as the strongest by fighting his way to the top. Despite his tough demeanor, Haruka may find that there is more to Furin High School and its students than just brute strength.
