Among fans, speculation and excitement about potential romantic pairings or ships are always a hot topic in anime. Satoru Nii’s action and delinquent manga series is no exception, as fans have Wind Breaker ships they want to get together the most.

Wind Breaker's rich character interactions and dynamic relationships leave plenty of room for fans to make assumptions and fantasize about potential romantic ships. 

From Umemiya x Toma to Sakura x Nirei, fans hope to see their favorite Wind Breaker ships sail into the sunset.

  1. Haruka Sakura x Kotoha Tachibana

    Who wouldn't notice the chemistry between Haruka and Kotoha? Kotoha appears more mature than her age, but she still looks nice with Haruka by her side.

    Besides, they have been through a lot throughout the series, beginning with episode 1, which shows Haruka defending Kotoha from a group of thugs who want to hit on her.

    While Kotoha acts as Sakura's older sister, there are moments in the series that encourage fans to hope for an intimate connection between the two.

  2. Choji Tomiyama x Hajime Umemiya

    The recent episode of Wind Breaker has fans rooting for Choji and Umemiya to get together.

    The way Umemiya tried to calm Choji down and knock some sense into him like a therapist made fans happy about their dynamic.

    What’s more, their height difference makes them look better than the other ships on our list.

    They are the type of pairing that is perfect to star in fan-made doujinshi or BL fan fiction.

  3. Togame Jo x Choji Tomiyama

    The vice-captain and the leader of Shishitoren look good together. Admit it, they have the potential to become a couple in the future if only Wind Breaker were a BL anime.

    They really care about each other, but not until one of them loses their direction.

    Their back story is the perfect foundation to start BL fanfiction, as Togame Jo would do everything in his power to protect Choji’s happiness, even if it meant doing things against his morals and values.

    Surely, there will be fans who will want to see through their story to the end.

  4. Haruka Sakura x Akihiko Nirei

    Haruka Sakura and Akihiko Nirei are polar opposites. They have diverse personalities, but they get along well together.

    In fact, Nirei always does his best to assist Sakura in his obligations as a first-grade captain, knowing that it is the only way he can help him.

    Nirei also has immense trust in Sakura's ability to lead their entire class honorably, just as second-year students like Ren Kaji do their best to look out for their friends.

    Sakura, on the other hand, genuinely cares about Nirei, even if he struggles to express it.

  5. Hajime Umemiya x Hiiragi Toma

    Even though Hiiragi Toma always suffers from stomach problems when he talks with Hajime Umemiya, some fans find their dynamic fascinating.

    Hiiragi knows everything about Umemiya, including his peculiar habits, and most importantly, the people he loves. He understands Umemiya, something that other characters in Wind Breaker struggle with.

    If they were in a relationship, Hiiragi would be a devoted girlfriend to Umemiya, who occasionally acts like a fun and impetuous child.

    It almost feels like Umemiya can do whatever he wants as long as Hiiragi is there to clean up after him.

    On a more serious note, Hiiragi has complete trust in Umemiya and vice versa, making their bond throughout the series stronger than any other.

  6. Haruka Sakura x Hayato Suo

    Wind Breaker pits Hayato Suo against Haruka Sakura. They have very different fighting styles, so they both want to defeat each other when to determine who is stronger.

    This dynamic is what keeps viewers squealing throughout the series. Fans can see something in Hayato Suo that admires Sakura, especially after he stated that he would never defeat the latter.

    As the plot progresses, Hayato, like Nirei, decides to assist Sakura to the best of his abilities in managing their class's affairs.

  7. Hajime Umemiya x Kotoha Tachibana

    While Hajime treats Kotoha like his little sister, some fans hope to see them in a relationship in the future.

    After all, Hajime Umemiya and Kotoha Tachibana have been through a lot since they were young. In fact, it was Kotoha who supported Umemiya when no one was there to hold his hand.

    This is the reason Hiiragi doesn’t want anyone to tell Umemiya that Kotoha was involved in an incident in the first episode of the anime.

    Hiiragi fears that Umemiya will do something reckless if he becomes aware of what has happened to his adoptive sister.

  8. Haruka Sakura x Kyotaro Sugishita

    It’ll be chaotic if the Haruka Sakura and Kyotaro Sugishita ship becomes canon in Wind Breaker due to their strong personalities and monstrous strength.

    They are both heavy hitters when it comes to fighting, which means there’ll always be tension between the two.

    It’ll be bad if they end up fighting all the time, so they need a third party to calm them down; perhaps Nirei or Suo.

    While they don’t see eye-to-eye, they are still fighting on the same side. Who knows, perhaps their dynamic could be the perfect example of the famous phrase, "The more you hate, the more you love".
