Kodansha Announces Wind Breaker Starting Monthly Print Releases in July 2025
JANUARY 9, 2025
Kodansha USA Publishing announced today that WIND BREAKER by Satoru Nii—the fan-favorite high school brawler manga that also inspired the anime streaming on Crunchyroll—will see an acceleration in its print schedule to monthly releases starting July 2025.
WIND BREAKER by Satoru Nii is an action-packed high school delinquent manga series that saw its English-language debut as a digital-first release in April 2022. Already reaching fan-favorite status, its popularity only increased as it began publishing in print August 2023. Inspired by the original manga, a hit anime produced by CloverWorks began airing August 2024, and a second season slated for 2025 was immediately announced following the end of the first season in June 2024. Manga fans can currently read up to 17 volumes digitally, and up to 8 volumes in print. The print edition of WIND BREAKER volume 9 will debut February 4, 2025.
In the world of WIND BREAKER, Haruka Sakura wants nothing to do with weaklings—he's only interested in the strongest of the strong. He's from Fuurin High School, a school of near-dropout degenerates known only for their brawling strength. And in a town known for its territorial disputes, Haruka's got only one goal—become the hero his town deserves.
