3.86 AVERAGE


A bit too much fan service and quite a lot of disrespect towards the women.

Well that was fun! I love dance and seeing it portrayed here was so enjoyable. It's impressive to see how a static image on a page can still feel like movement. Storyline wise, the newbie to dance who wants to learn and become pro is fun. The ultra competitiveness at such a young age is always a bit rough. It does feel like they are older than they are. Really enjoyed it. Will absolutely be reading the next volume

The art is often stunning in this one, which is enough of a reason to continue. I think the tone is one I'll have to get used to, switching between serious and slapstick, but I am interested enough to continue for now.

 This was a pretty enjoyable manga overall! I liked the art style a lot - it’s very much so a more old-school style with exaggerated facial expressions that are just so unhinged that it’s actually perfect, but there was also this really cool contrast between sharper lines and more scribble-adjacent parts (this is a compliment, I swear!) specifically when the characters are dancing. I just think that the content of the manga would maybe translate better in the anime (which I will be watching).

tbqh I'm reading this to see Hyodo Kiyoharu again, yes please, and more of his somewhat fraught childhood-friends-to-dance-partners (to life partners) relationship with Shizuku. I also want to see more of Shizuku, angry Shizuku, are-you-underestimating-me Shizuku, fiery quiet determination Shizuku--yes I want to see more Hanaoka Shizuku.

tl;dr Hyodo Hanaoka power couple on and off the dance floor, thank you for my life
