Anime and Wind Users
Wind is comprised of air particles moving around in all directions and is symbolic of freedom in and of itself. Sometimes, this phenomenon can make or break a day depending on the temperature. For instance, if it is windy on a cooler day, it will suddenly feel colder, or visa versa on very hot days. Air is a wind that we breathe and what it has in it is important for health matters.
In Anime, there are moments where moving air as wind composes of different attacks and uses from the casters. Yuno (Black Clover) is an orphan who grew up in the Little Church in Hage Village and was later accepted into the Golden Dawn Magjc Knight Squad. He is a character who at a young age had a talent for wind magic which would yield a Four Leaf Grimoire (the more leaves the better and four is very high) for him. Also, Yuno's greatest potential for magic is his spirit magic. Spirit magic for him is Sylph, the wind spirit, who gives him access to powerful wind spells like Sylph's Breathe (a blast of very concentrated wind in streams).
Fuu Hououji (Magic Knights Rayearth) is a magic knight with constant smiles, politeness, and high levels of intelligence. Archery is an innate skill set with wind abilities that Fuu uses to redirect the arrows ensuring very accurate shots. There are many ways that she uses wind for many situations like winds of healing, immobilizing opponents, protective formations for defense, and sharp wind blade attacks.
Jin (Yu-Yu Hakusho) first appeared in the Dark Tournament Saga in Yu-Yu Hakusho and is always cheerful and full of excitement. Aerokinesis or wind control is what he brings on and off the battlefield. Jin uses aerial type combat at times that is meant for hit and run tactics but only go as fast the wind allows him to do so. Makai, one of the strongest S class demons, was stunned when Jin used his Tornado Explosion. Tornado Explosion is a move that comes in a tornado fist with electricity embedded in the tornado.
Aquila Yuna (Saint Seiya Omega) is the Saint Bronze of the Aquila constellation and can be irritable when provoked. She can attack combatants with hurricanes and tornadoes but typically battles is physical especially kicks from Yuna. Wind can be altered in the forms by ears being sensitive to noise (better hearing) and wind enhancements on melee techniques performed by this Saint. In the Saint status, Yuna is able to access light speed through seventh sense form and other Saint related abilities like atomic manipulation.
Kazuma Yagami (Stigma of the Wind) is an exiled member from the Kannagi family for not learning Enjutsu (fire-wielding). He forms a contract that says “Eyes as blue as the azure sky. That is the symbol of the Contractor, entrusted by the Spirit King of the Wind with the powers of his domain. I bear this mark, the Stigma of the Wind.” to grant him Fū-jutsu. As being a Wind Technique Practitioner, Kazuma can strengthen wind abilities, can redirect any battle attempts, can hide one's image (invisibility), can track somebody's physical or spiritual presence, and can activate his contract ability in controlling wind spirits and near invisibility. Extreme anger can cause him to be sidetracked and reduce the power input from the Spirit God of the Wind in crimson eyes and black wind as potential signs.
Wind can weather rocks, move waves across the oceans, do damage to infrastructure, make the artic even colder, influence stronger fires, and other forces on Earth. Wind is very influential as an element for it produces power like water and fire and makes other elements intense both in life and in Anime situations.
Hurricane Irene had damaging winds, dangerous storm surges (water as flooding), vibrations as tremors in Virginia (earth as plate tectonics like activity), warm temperatures for storm growth (fire as heat), hitting New York (ice as cold temperatures killing the storm), and conditions to cause thunderstorms possibly (lighting as thunderstorms). In closing, wind can go so fast that it could counter water which means a wind user could match a water user's attacks.
