They probably shouldn’t have split the title into two words.

A strong premiere review -- nicely put! Especially that first paragraph -- it rang true to my hope and inevitable disappointment in both Tokyo Revengers and Bucchigiri.
A small detail that I really appreciated (if a bit over-exaggerated), is how Sakura's appearance is also strange within the show.
I'm curious if we'll end up with a fleshed out backstory for the origin of his appearance. I've only seen episode 1 so far. Looking forward to episode 2! I think I'll love the eyepatch boy.
The opening is also lots of fun.

This series made me remember how Ichigo having orange hair and how everybody thought he was a delinquent for it was a huge deal at the beginning of Bleach.
Then Kubo forgot a bout it.
Anyways, the series is exactly what I thought it would be, aspires to be nothing more and success at it, so, fine by me.

the only thing that is unlikable about this series is ok. being an anti hero deliquent, but haruka at times act like a poor man version of adonis from kingdom of ruin at worst, and a poor man version of nagi from tengo tenge!
their lonely boys that wants to lash out at the world for all the bad things that happen to their lives

In a different series, Haruka could be an insufferable protagonist. The show constantly undermining his expectations does a lot to make him more bearable.

Yeah why didn't those Espadas and Quincies judge Ichigo by his hair! That would have been very much on topic during those life and death struggles! What the heck Kubo!
Anyway, where is all the farting? The show is called Wind Breaker...maybe they are saving them up for later? Much like what happens to me when I go to a Brazilian steak restaurant.

This show is really highlighting for me the importance of production values in hand-to-hand combat focused shows. There are some types of shows that can get away with limited animation but ones with big fights really can't. I had a lot of frustrations with Tokyo Revengers but one of the biggest was how unimpressive every fight looked. I'm struggling to remember a single standout fight from that show. Meanwhile neither of the fights in this episode were the 'main events' of this arc so to speak (as Nick said no-name characters) but each had me on the edge of my seat and I immediately rewatched both. Even if everything else about this show sucked (and it doesn't) it would be worth watching for the fights alone and that's great.
