Speculative Overview of Wind Breaker Season 2
Currently, no official synopsis for Wind Breaker season 2 has been provided. However, based on the key visual, we can speculate which story arcs might be featured in the sequel, starting with the continuation of the KEEL Arc.
Given Tsubakino’s significant presence in the newly released PV, it is likely that season 2 will delve into the Sakura / Tsubakino Arc, which promises character development as Tsubakino introduces Sakura and his friends to the town.
Furthermore, characters from the Roppo-Ichiza / Gravel Arc are also present in the key visual, suggesting this storyline will be explored as well. In this arc, Tsubakino and Sakura’s crew will embark on a mission to save old friends from the threats posed by a shadowy organization.
