Of course. It's a male-female dancing.

They want some of the YoI success, but don't realize YoI is successful because of the fujoshit pandering not the shitty ice skate dancing.

>>151553499

The fujoshit pandering wasn't everything. Professional skaters were watching it for the ice skating w/c caused a lot of buzz. Not to mention that YoI alienated those who didn't like the BL vibes. Ballroom e Youkoso on the other hand will appeal to both genders.

Still waiting for a Kono Oto Tomare anime.

>>151560842
It will probably get one soon enough, done by Bones, ideally.

I just hope this means some group picks the manga back up

>>151552718
I.G. great.

Anyway, everytime a thread of this manga pops I need to re-read some chapters, the wait is killing me. updates when?

>>151562727
>updates when?
Very soon, the new chapter will be released in a few days. Then, the wait until translations.

>>151552804
>>151552744
and its everything. They do various Latin dances, but the main character/couple isn't at that level, standard which is waltz, quick step etc.

>>151553901
He hasn't danced alone much at all, only in a small period at the very start and then around chapter 20 when he is trying to get a partner. He has danced with 3 different girls so far.

>>151562547
Manga was on hiatus, the d/a/ncefag has probably been here all along waiting for it to go off hiatus which it is in a week.

I think anime threads will be total shit though, manga threads didn't have much waifu shit flinging and constant art posting but the anime threads sure as fuck will

>>151562900
It won't be very faithful to the manga but it'll probably still look fine

>>151562900
All of those had great character designs, your point?

>>151562958
ufotable color schemes look dark most though. Why would you want that.

>>151562958
This meme needs to die.

>>151563049
Because I want this shading. Plus they are good at animating movement.

>>151563082
I wasn't memeing.

>>151562984
He made characters in Haikyuu too skinny opposed to the manga. Barely any muscles in players.

>>151563121
Good. Free! muscles were ridiculous. At least high school volleyball players looked like high school volleyball players.

>>151563121
I think he vastly improved the designs for Haikyuu.

>>151563177
The only positive thing about that.

Lmao it's AnH all over again, you niggas be mad.

>>151553499
this makes me mad. I never bothered to watch YoI, but I read the manga because of the dancing.

The anime won't touch on the yuri ship until late into the season, if at all.

>>151553882
the ridiculous detail on their bodies/movement threw me off, which isn't a bad thing.

One of the series I most wanted to see adapted to anime is getting an anime and by one of the studios I was hoping would do it. What a fucking sweet christmas gift.

All that needs to happen is, outta fucking nowhere, a (good) studio needs to announce they're doing Lucifer & The Biscuit adaptation and I can forgive 2016 for all the bad shit it has wrought.

>>151567626
At this point, the only way one of his manga gets adapted is when he puts out a new series and Spirit Circle gets adapted as some sort of cross-promotion. Its probably his best manga.

or an anniversary thing in like 4-5 years.

>>151565833
The artstyle of the AnH manga was shit in the first place

>>151568141
confirmed for never reading Ballroom.

Ballroom e Youkoso is het as fuck.

>>151568141
there is emphasis on both male and female bodies.

Maybe I should keep a tally and see how many times it takes for the non-manga reading anime watchers to make "LOL THEY SURE SWEAT A LOT" type remarks before I snap

>>151552718
>production IG

I wonder if they're going to use CG for the dancing sequences. It's the only way I can see them doing the manga justice without killing their animators from overworking.

>>151552718
Thank god. I would have been very upset if it went to some trash studio. Let's hope Itazu is as good at directing as he is at animating.

>>151560842
The Drama CDs with actual stage performances were pretty nice desu senpai. Go check them out.

I hope the dancing looks good, with IG and this director previously working as an animator it seems like it has potential.

To me YoI was a huge letdown because the skating programs looked horrible. And I'm not a fujoshit so the homo didn't distract me from the QUALITY.

>>151568076
Thank God

Its all about male/girl couples but just like Boku no Hero, the main trio of males will probably get more art together than the couples.

>>151576398
>the main trio of males will probably get more art together than the couples.
Just look at the promotional images of the manga up till now, it was either character solo or a given pair.

There's no fujo pandering unless you squint hard enough (i.e: delude yourself) when the characters take a trip and the boys go the open bath and one of them starts dancing while checking himself out on the mirror.

>>151577057
There's no fujo pandering, that's true, but that is not gonna stop the fujos.

>>151577057
>implying the fujos need pandering
They take what they get and run with it, every time. That hot springs scene? Fucking will drown out every other thing.

More exposure.

>>151577282
Depends on the pacing, adapating everything so far (which means an original end) seems plausible.

Dunno why some are saying they might not even reach Chinatsu's introcution.

The series is just 8 volumes so far and the mangaka really takes her time crafting long panels with characters exposing their thoughts

>>151552718
more homo-themed sports series getting greenlite? It's like the fujos are taking over or something

>>151577282
If its 12/13 episodes, it probably won't reach Chinatsu who is MC's actual official first partner.

If its 24 episodes, its going to have an original end or spoilers because the manga has no good stopping point for where MC and Chinatsu are.

>>151578231
>more homo-themed sports series getting greenlite?
It's more hetero than your faggot ass will ever be, Ballroom just reeks of sexual tension between boys and girls.

I love this manga, because while the MC starts out pretty generic he actually starts changing a bit. Right now in the current part of the manga he's FUCKING PISSED.

If these two end up together it will be one of if not the greatest love-hate romances in manga/anime history.

>>151578553
>If these two end up together
I'm hopeful for that if romance starts creeping in since their tension is pretty arousing, but it isn't happening, or if it did happen then Chinatsu either stopped dancing when she grew up or for some odd reason Tatara and Chinatsu are not dance partners in the future to come, something that I've never seen in the world of professional dacing, granted I don't know much about but couples who can dance not being partners would be pretty damn weird.

The manga starts with the basic X years into the future many sports series have, with the protagonist already a big shot in the world stage, and the woman Tatara is dacing with doesn't like Chinatsu or any other girl introduced so far actually.

WHO IS THIS SLUT. GET YOUR HANDS OFF TATARA HE BELONGS TO CHINATSU.

I'm glad the series doesn't have the protagonist be some hidden talent that no one has ever discovered.

He just practices the stuff he learns from his dedicated mentor, with only good muscle memory going for him.

Tatara being normal is what gets the other talented dancers wanting to polish him into a fine diamond.

People just keep saying a new chapter is popping up in a few weeks.

but nobody is talking about the author, is she okay again or is this one of those times where a manga comes back from hiatus just go back it right after one or two chapters?

>>151578966
>>151578776
Its definitely a grown up Shizuku. Chinatsu might break something be out forever, but it would be a interesting take if he was with Chinatsu romantically but Shizuku as a dance partner.

>>151579604
>Its definitely a grown up Shizuku
Her design doesn't look so elaborate to me, as in it belongs to a grown main character.

Shizuku is the girl Tatara wants to show he is improving, by showing her already being set to be Tatara's partner in the future would break much of the series development, the readers would know from day one Tatara goes to the world stage and gets the girl that got him into dancing as his partner.

>>151584714
I don't care for fujo all that much but I respect the dollar amounts they can pump into anime they like. Money cannot be ignored.

>>151579057
he's the type of guy that was just groping for something to throw himself into fully, once he found it he was able to thrive.
He also has tons of shit that works against him too.

Excellent? I always like it when a series I like gets more exposure, but I always feel the animation won't match how "WHOOSH" I feel all the dance movements are and I'll end up disappointed.

You almost say that as if lolis were popular in anime, or sell well. Well, no they don't, and it's been ages there was a lolicon show.
Still you're right about the girls being too old, since otaku wants school age girls, mostly high school.
