Wind Breaker follows Haruka Sakura, a loner who transfers into Furin High School from outside town because he wants to fight his way to the top of a school famous for its delinquents. He finds that Furin's fighters call themselves Bofurin and use their strength to protect the town and its shopkeepers rather than to rule it. The cast is organised like a school: Sakura's first-year class 1-1, the second- and third-year leaders, and the Four Kings who each command one squad of classes under the overall head, Hajime Umemiya. Outside the school stand rival gangs such as Shishitoren in Season 1 and KEEL in Season 2. This page covers 15 characters, from Sakura's classmates to the first rival leaders, described as they are first introduced.
Haruka Sakura is the protagonist, a first-year in class 1-1 at Furin High with hair split black and white down the middle and eyes of two different colours. Treated as an outsider all his life, he believes fighting is the only way to prove his worth and comes to Furin to reach the top. He is prickly, honest and turns red whenever someone thanks or praises him. He becomes the class leader of 1-1. Japanese voice: Yuma Uchida; Brazilian dub: Rodrigo Rossi.
Akihiko Nirei is the first Furin student Sakura meets and his self-appointed follower, a blond first-year who decides on the spot that Sakura is cool. He is not much of a fighter, but he keeps a notebook in his chest pocket full of information on strong people, which makes him the class's information gatherer. His open, cheerful nature makes him the mood-maker of 1-1, and he serves as vice-leader. Japanese voice: Shōya Chiba.
Hayato Suo is a first-year in class 1-1 and the other vice-leader alongside Nirei. He wears an eyepatch, a tassel earring and Chinese-style clothes, and he is always polite, smiling and considerate. He rarely shows what he really thinks, and he fights with a calm, flowing martial-arts style that redirects an opponent's force. He is curious about Sakura from their first meeting. Japanese voice: Nobunaga Shimazaki.
Kyotaro Sugishita is a tall, long-haired first-year in class 1-1 who fights like an attack dog and was recognised as part of Bofurin even before high school. He is completely devoted to Umemiya, who once helped him, and almost everything he does follows Umemiya's wishes. Because Sakura announces he wants to take the top spot, the two clash from day one. Japanese voice: Kōki Uchiyama.
Hajime Umemiya is a third-year and the head of Bofurin, the leader Sakura came to Furin to beat. He looks like an easygoing, slightly careless older guy who grows vegetables on the school roof, yet he has a presence that makes everyone trust him. He treats the people of the town as family, and he is very protective of Kotoha, who grew up with him. Japanese voice: Yuichi Nakamura.
Toma Hiragi is a third-year and one of Bofurin's Four Kings, the captain of the squad that includes Sakura's class 1-1. He has a strong sense of responsibility and keeps stomach medicine on hand, partly because supporting the carefree Umemiya gives him constant stress. He is a seasoned fighter whom many younger students have chosen to follow. Japanese voice: Ryōta Suzuki; Brazilian dub: Heitor Assali.
Mitsuki Kiryu is a first-year in class 1-1 with a row of X-shaped hairclips and several piercings. He speaks softly, loves video games and is kind to the people around him, often adding a friendly -chan to his friends' names. In a fight he relies mainly on palm strikes, and he turns sharp when someone will not take no for an answer. Japanese voice: Toshiyuki Toyonaga.
Taiga Tsugeura is a first-year in class 1-1 with an afro tied back by a headband. A fitness enthusiast who always carries protein powder, he lives by his own idea of what is cool and is honest and cheerful to a fault. His friends like him, but his constant high energy also wears them out. Japanese voice: Kengo Kawanishi.
Tasuku Tsubakino is a third-year and another of Bofurin's Four Kings, captain of a different squad. Very fashionable, he wears a choker, loves cute and sparkly things and likes to be called Tsubaki-chan. He is warm-hearted and especially close to Umemiya, who never thought his love of cute things was strange. Japanese voice: Ryōta Ōsaka.
Ren Kaji is a second-year and the class leader of 2-1 in Hiragi's squad. He always wears headphones playing loud music and has a lollipop in his mouth. Expressionless and quiet, he is hard to read, but he cares a great deal about the bonds with his two vice-leaders and the rest of his class. He is one of the key Furin fighters of Season 2. Japanese voice: Nobuhiko Okamoto.
Kotoha Tachibana runs a café in the town that Furin students treat like a second home. She is only 16, like Sakura, but acts like a calm older sister to the Bofurin members and feeds both students and townspeople every day. She is the first local Sakura meets, and she often sees through his tough act. She grew up with Umemiya. Japanese voice: Ikumi Hasegawa; Brazilian dub: Luísa Viotti.
Choji Tomiyama is the number one of Shishitoren, the gang that clashes with Bofurin in Season 1. He reached the top of his group in search of freedom and now believes only strength makes a person free, so he pushes out anyone he thinks is weak. In the one-on-one matches between the two groups he faces Umemiya. Japanese voice: Kikunosuke Toya.
Jo Togame is Shishitoren's number two and Choji's closest companion. He cares deeply about Choji and takes on harsh jobs inside the gang himself so the members will not turn against him. In the one-on-one matches against Bofurin he is matched against Sakura, and their fight is one of the central moments of Season 1. Japanese voice: Yūichirō Umehara.
Kota Sako is one of Shishitoren's top five fighters. As a child he learned to fight from Hiragi and wanted to help him reach the top, so he has a personal grudge to settle when the two groups meet. In the one-on-one matches he faces Hiragi directly. Japanese voice: Chiaki Kobayashi.
Shingo Natori is the leader of KEEL, the group at the centre of Season 2's first arc. He carries a mark shaped like a ship's keel and enjoys controlling people through fear and violence. During the clash between KEEL and Bofurin he ends up facing Ren Kaji, whom he sees as someone much like himself. Japanese voice: Junya Enoki; Brazilian dub: Leo Santhos.
