I cannot take this manga seriously. Some of the dancing shots, man. If you see it, you’ll know what I mean lol. Things look slightly off, but I think it was an effective and commendable way for the mangaka to show movement. This is one of those mangas where an anime is almost necessary to really get the ideas across.

Despite that, the characters are charming. Kaboku’s a tall, shy dude who doesn’t want to stand out due to past insecurities, but somehow dance and a cute girl keep drawing him out of his shell. Hikari is quirky and uses dance as a way to express herself. I like that Hikari’s not pushy and notices Kaboku and encourages him. Kaboku is also a decent guy. These two are wholesome.
