I've read this a few times now and I love it every time. The first time I read it I felt like the two Shinyas had overly aggressive attitudes with one another but now I recognize the affectionate teasing.
Much of the manga is about the Shinyas learning and teaching each other dances but there are enough other characters and scenes to avoid the dancing becoming monotonous.
There are quite a few thought bubbles and little asides. The first time I read this it was hard to follow each of those narrative tracks at the same time but now I find it an endearing part of this manga series. They lend so much more depth to the characters. It's also interesting to see how much more the Shinyas pick up on each others' unspoken thoughts over the course of the series.

A fun bl with distinct characters and an interesting setting in the world of professional ballroom dance.
Tsuzuki Shinya. The name of two successful ballroom dancers - one specializing in Standard, the other in Latin dances. The Standard one aims to be World Champion, and as such needs to conquer Latin dance as well, so he asks the other one to help him. He accepts despite himself - he doesn't have any great aspirations, really, but as they practice together at some point he starts to get serious too. And the two Shinyas dance very well together..
It's the first volume, and (almost) nothing physical happens between them - apart from the dancing, of course. To be honest, the main attraction of this is the dancing but it's so hot the four stars are easily deserved. I'm a bit on the fence regarding the characters, but they do have chemistry and I had fun reading it. And the dance scenes *are* gorgeous.
(It placed 3rd on the "Kono BL Ga Yabai 2014" list, but in no way is this better than "Saezuru Tori" or "Udagawachou" or - well, a few others on the list. It was good though.)

I'm so glad I picked this up! The art is amazing, the story is realistic and flows so well. The attraction develops so naturally ant a comfy slow pace without all the gross problematic trips from most BL series. Can't wait for vol 2!
