    Bucchigiri and Tokyo revengers either have bad storylines, characters, and it’s idiotic. I also don’t want to watch my nemesis tbh. IMO it’s hate watching. None of that is in windbreaker, it builds on charter and setting while having good animation. Its 10/10 cause all the other fail miserably.

I mean Idk why people complain about Haruka's story just beginning. It IS just the beginning. But I do understand the issue with anime being just a marketing tool. It is sadly something I had to go through with so many anime that I loved and never got past season 1.

    I do understand your argument and also feel upset with how often we get an introduction to a good thing that never gets continued BUT I absolutely love this show. The animation, character building and writing, pacing. All of it is positively fantastic. It's rare to find fist fights this well animated since everything is swords. I will be recommending this show to others even if that just leaves more people hanging on for a sequel that never happens. I've done that before so why stop now? (Looking at you Rokka no Yusha.)

    Remember back in the 2000s when we had series like Kaleido Star, Full Moon wo Sagashite or Nana? You know the type....they had around 50 episodes and told a complete story? Those weren't shounen? Okay but we also had FMA, Samurai Champloo, Death Note, Eureka Seven and dozens of others that actually finished....then 2008 happened and everything went to shit on the scheduling side for anime. There have been some exceptions but I really do think things really started to change around 2008 for long term scheduling for long running series.

    I did click on the vid for wind breaker. I'm enjoying the anime a lot but ill edit my comment after i finish the vid 6:45 i agree with this. it's been refreshing having so many side characters stories fleshed out a bit. they've done it tastefully too. 10:00 yeah i can see what you're arguing here. it does feel like a prologue. I really hope we get more seasons cause i've been enjoying it so much. I hate when studios make a season of anime solely just to try and promote a specific thing or to direct manga sales with zero aspirations to actually flesh out the story and animate a couple seasons/finish it.

    Clickbait video but 90% of anime never get completed. As an anime fan, I've come to terms a show will probably not get more seasons. If you didn't know, anime is just a giant promotion to get more people to buy manga and merchandise. If an anime doesn't make money, it doesn't make sense to invest more money. In the end, if your favorite anime is popular enough, and people are buying manga/bluray/merch, you'll get another season.

    The Wind Breaker manga has been a favorite of mine since its first arc (I happened to find it very early on while looking for another series) because at its core, its a comfort series. I've treated it as a hidden gem for over 2 years but I guess I can't quite call it that anymore. It is exhilarating to see it get such a great anime adaptation but there's a part of me that wishes it didn't get such a big limelight due to the majority of the people (mainly young kids and teenagers cause they're only ones who have enough free time to keep up with everything new coming out each season) seeing it only for the violence and action instead of the character driven story that it is. It...stops feeling like a "comfort" series and now I can't enjoy it the same way I used to...

Is the exact problem Choji ran into,kid wanted to do nothing but "be the strongest and the freest" an overly simple worldview that doesn't really leave you satisfied. Guess Wind breaker is a little more accurate to current than expected.

    I think you're missing the point. It isn't Wind Breaker's fault. It's the fault of the anime industry deciding everything should only be 10 or 12 episodes at a time. It is rare for a story to be able to handle an entire arc well in that short an episode count. They need to commit to 24 episodes more frequently as that let's the series breathe and often get to a better pausing point than such a short run.

    11:25 These days? C'mon, I know you're old enough to remember when MOST manga other than a handful of super-titles (the Big Three, anything by Rumiko Takahashi, Sailor Moon, etc) would get at best a six-episode OAV compressed adaptation of the first story arc with a "The Adventure Continues In The Manga!" ending. Even JoJo originally suffered this fate, only to come back later because it ran long enough to get a second chance. If anything the fact that these days most manga adaptations are at least a 12 episode cour, with many going on to further seasons, is a vast improvement over how things used to be.

    I watched this to the end the first time I watched this video, and had to switch from my tv to my computer to write this. There's something fundamental about this argument that I just can't jive with. You say Windbreakers is good, but you can't recommend it due to it feeling like a prologue and the cynicism that there won't be a satisfying resolution. The thing that just doesn't sit right with me is that, it was enjoyable, but, because the meta of this show getting more seasons is so astronomical, it's not worth experiencing in the first place. I may be a romantic, but I personally believe; that if art has an impact of any kind, then it has value. To say something isn't worth the time, just because the ending is impossible to be satisfying, is kind of missing the forest through the trees in my opinion. (If I'm using that turn of phrase correctly.) Just because I will never be a rock star, doesn't mean I can't enjoy learning and playing music. The time, the enjoyment, the experience, were all worth having, as evidenced in the fact that you made this video at all. (While admittedly statistically there is little to no chance there will be a satisfying conclusion. But statistically the average person has one testicle, so even that ain't perfect.) I mean, I get the fact that it feels like a prologue is like having a promise made that effectively can never be kept, which does feel bad. I just think the good times still matter. The last point I want to address is that you said roughly, if the show will never be finished why didn't I just read the manga in the first place? But that's the thing, if this show had never aired, would you have ever even given the manga a shot in the first place, let alone known about it at all. Again maybe my outlook is naive, that said I still think there is value worth sharing to others even if it will never end properly, because of the experiences that were had along the way. And hey, now I'm purchasing this manga's English volumes from a local comic book store and am supporting the official release as well as a family owned establishment, so my time with the show is helping more than just me. Anyway, that's my two cents, and if it wasn't art related, I probably wouldn't have commented at all. I hope you find something better in the future.

    I mean, I would not be quite so pessimistic about Wind Breaker's chances of getting a second season at the very least. It is very popular main stream shonen series, with good manga sales, and very well received anime, so I would say it has much better chance of getting multiple seasons than your average series.

    I wish more anime would get complete stories as well. however, by the time season 2 of most shows comes out, I've forgotten so much of season 1 that I barely know what's going on and I miss out on a lot of the enjoyment I had for a season 1. I don't have time to rewatch anime very often anymore, so I usually just slug through a season 2 without really knowing what's going on unless it recaps me well enough. This is one of the reasons why I don't bother to keep up with shows seasonally. I mean I watch seasonal anime, but I'm usually working on 2-3 seasons behind most of the time. One of the benefits to this approach is that I can easily wait for a season 2 to come out before watching season 1 and then go through 2 seasons at the same time. Though I'm still totally screwed if a season 3 comes out lol

Just 10-15 years ago, such things were quite the norm, even for shows that were an objective event, if not of a year, then at least of a season. As you rightly said, “read the manga if you want to know what happened next.” But we've already been so spoiled by full or soon-to-be full adaptations that we've become completely spoiled by this and now perceive the "advertising for manga" type of adaptation as something arrogant and obviously wrong, lmao.

    Wind Breaker is basically FREE with martial arts instead of swimming. They even have one of the characters' "sister" as a token female character, lmao. But seriously, this show is like a video game to me. Charismatic characters, very cool and well-animated fights, and... the most simple plot of the level of your favorite * insert name * fighting game from the golden era of PS2 or PS3.

    I've not seen the show. When you say FREE with martial arts, are you saying it's a fanservice-y shonen? Because I always like a good "clearly a shonen but these boys are drawn for the ladies" type show (SK8 to Infinity my beloved).

    That it was already confirmed to have 24-26 episodes (2 cour) split into 2 seasons (2x12-13 episodes). Iirc, it was 13+12 so Season 1 (or Part 1, depending on how they’re going to name it) is going to have 13 episodes and in a few months (3-6 months usually) Season 2 (or Part 2) is going to come out with 12 episodes

    I don't see the excitement I get from watching a great anime as a waste of time at all, even if it "doesn't have an ending" or is "just a prologue". I watch it because it's a fun way to spend time and if I decide to read the manga later then cool! I love manga too so it's also not a waste of time. WHY not read it in the first place then? General audiences just have a tougher time sitting down to read a manga vs sitting down to stare at the shiny box, I guess? I think the point is read more manga! Because manga is great! And if it gets an anime adaptation, then you can enjoy both! And put a voice to the character and support the creator(s) of the manga.

    I’ve enjoyed windbreaker for what it is, it’s not really trying to break any boundaries but it is very good at what it is. Some of the characters do seem to have some slightly cliche/annoying traits but i don’t particularly mind because the premise to begin with is so absurd I think it works. Two other shows I’ve really gotten into is yatagarasu and oblivion battery. Yatagarasu for the story and mystery, and oblivion battery for its themes, although again some of it is characters are very anime. I gave mysterious disappearances a shot and at the beginning it seemed like it might actually be decent but as I thought it would it inevitably evolved into nothing but ecchi bait and the mysteries stopped being mysterious.

    I checked this show when it had only 4 episodes and wanted to check out this show a lot of people were reacting to with headings saying it was great. I was curious and watched episode 1 and was hooked. Not just the fighting animation is awesome, but the characters are interesting. Sakura may be a typical tsundere tough guy, but he’s so endearing with his natural good nature underneath that ‘I don’t like anyone’ image. I mean he got flustered when someone thanked him, gave an old man his wallet that left behind, gave a old lady a piggyback ride cuz her back hurt, he says rude things but does nice things. He’s another guy that’s been ostracized by society so his answer is to be the best fighter against others. I’m a sucker for tough guys with heart of gold, and he hooked me. Doesn’t hurt I love his look.

    The tragic thing is unless your a big name the anime is just marketing for the manga thats how we get things like the promise neverland situation because there is so much manga being made that needs to be adapted we have the opposite problem of 20 years ago when anime would just run strait and run out of manga now the manga ends with alot of anime left and they dont care to adapt it unless its super popular. Now for windbreaker I think its season will end well based on ep 10 the conversation between sakura and the leader aswell as listening to the leaders of the gangs talk he has a decent idea of what he needs to get to the top and the last few episodes will likely be him getting to the starting line ya it is kinda a prologue end but like vinland saga season 1 a satisfying end to a prologue
