Wind Breaker, the manga by Satoru Nii about high school delinquents turned heroes, is getting a live-action film. Set to hit screens in Japan this December, it’s directed by Kentaro Hagiwara, who helmed the live-action versions of Blue Period and Tokyo Ghoul. The script is by Yosuke Masaike, who penned the screenplay for Anime Supremacy!.
You can see a quick teaser for the film below.
Wind Breaker, which kicked off in 2022, has also received two seasons of anime, the latest of which just wrapped up.
Here’s how Kodansha USA describes the manga:
An adrenaline-filled manga set in a high school for delinquents who are now heroes protecting their town. A fierce, new student arrives at the school determined to fight his way to the top and become the strongest of them all. This edgy, action-packed manga is guaranteed to excite fans of Tokyo Revengers and other stories about high school delinquents.
Haruka Sakura wants nothing to do with weaklings—he’s only interested in the strongest of the strong. He’s just started at Furin High School, a school of degenerates known only for their brawling strength—strength they use to protect their town from anyone who wishes it ill. But Haruka’s not interested in being a hero or being part of any sort of team—he just wants to fight his way to the top!
Can’t believe I made it this far without a single fart joke…
