Wind Breaker episode 3 recap

Wind Breaker episode 3 began with Sakura and Sugishita continuing their fight until a voice came over the loudspeaker. Everyone in class but Sakura stood silent and still as they listened to the voice, which was revealed to be Furin's number one, Hajime Umemiya. Sakura wondered how someone who sounded so cheery could be Furin's number one but was interrupted by someone coming to their class and ordering them into the courtyard.

Here, Toma Hiragi reappeared, likely better known as the Furin student who saved Sakura and Kotoha Tachibana in the street fight they got involved in. After reaffirming to Sakura that he needs to stay quiet about Kotoha's involvement, it was revealed that the school was going on patrol and splitting into groups of four or five. Sakura's group was himself, Nirei, Suo, and Sugishita, with Toma being the leader of Sakura and Sugishita's group at Hajime's request.

The group then did their patrols, eventually finding a local middle school student fleeing from Shishitoren territory, the Shishitoren being a rival group. Sakura and Sugishita immediately began fighting, prompting the introduction of Jo Togame, the Shishitoren's number two. Jo left shortly after but promised to fight Sakura someday. The episode ended with Toma taking Sakura and co to Hajime to report the incident, officially introducing Furin's number one.

Following the introduction of the Shishitoren, Wind Breaker, episode 4 should introduce fans to Hajime's serious side once he hears about the latest incident from Toma and co. This should also establish why Toma was so hesitant about letting Hajime hear that Kotoha was involved in a street fight the other day.

After this, episode 4 should see Hajime advise that the Bofurin need to prepare for a turf war, given the involvement of the Shishitoren's second-in-command. The rest of the episode will likely show the preparations the Bofurin and the Shishitoren are making for the inevitable coming battle.
