It's not really surprising. Waifufags don't like this because all the waifus are constantly dancing with other men which leads to them crying NTR as you've seen in these threads before. And fujofags stay far away from it the second they find out this isn't Yaoi on Ice 2.0.

This manga discussion is stupid anyway. It doesn't matter how much the manga sells right now, it matters how much the anime increases the sales of the manga.

>>160453767

I am not sure if I got this right. If Sengoku didn't want Kiyoharu to dance because he was injured, why did he make Tatara take his place instead of simply retiring?
>>
>>160454898
You need to get some comprehension skills.
>>
>>160454898
Maybe he wanted to teach him a lesson for witholding the fact that he was injured.
>>
>>160454865
Sweet. If you are making an anime about dancing, you shouldn't have it another way.
>>
>>160440166
Fuck off 3DPD.
>>
>>160454983
Yes, I need to, because it doesn't make sense to me. Sengoku then blames it on Tatara for lighthing a fire, but what did he expect? for them to find out and penalise them? for Kiyoharu to not be mad as fuck?

Please explain, because I genuinely don't see the logic in the actions.

You obviously don't get Sengoku's character.

dive is the another one. underrated series tbf
>>
>>160454898
I don't think Sengoku felt he could make Hyoudo stop just by telling him not to dance, getting them disqualified was a guaranteed way to make them withdraw.

Hyoudo wasn't really mad in the way you seem to think. He was angry/surprised that his dance had been copied so easily which ended up motivating him in the next heat. It's not like he was mad that Tatara danced or that he got disqualified.

Sengoku's plan was brilliant because even though it failed in its original intention, it converted Hyoudo into a dancing god and leveled up Tatara which is more than worth a six month disqualification.
>>
>>160455059
Would you expect Kiyoharu to gently back off and forfeit because his leg is injured? Sengoku sure as hell didn't and that's why he went for the trolling option to stop him from risking a bigger injury.
He didn't expect Tatara to make him to the end and be happy enough about dancing to trigger Kiyoharu.
>>
>>160455417
>>160455488
But Kiyoharu was nowhere to be seen, there was no need to send Tatara on. Just walk and say you are his coach and he retires.

You know, now that I think about it Hyoudou's leg acting up again and cutting his career short might be the reason why Tatara is with Shizuku as his endgame partner for Blackpool.
>>
>>160457458
Except the episode actually has to get somewhere. Wasting 2-3 minutes on dances like that means skipping over other, relevant stuff.

And if you wanted uninterrupted dancing, then, sorry, this is a manga adaptation and that stuff just doesn't work in that medium. There needs to be some 'interruptions' to keep things going rather than trying to show spread after spread of 'movement'.

However, if they keep with the 2 chapter an episode pace, we will eventually get dances that last 10 minutes at least. So wait and see on that part.

I like how he just asked Tatara to take care of Shizuku so she doesn't rust while he's healing. I shows how much respect he got for the two of them while alsopointing out that he thinks Shizuku's level is so much bellow his that she needs to keep practicing even when he's not.

What are your guys' thoughts on the show? I feel the music, though sometimes it feels a little out of place during some non-dance scenes, and style are really strong, I like it a lot. Some of the frames look great like seeing the frames of fired up Hyodo. However I feel the dancing falls really flat, it's a lot of stillf rames half the time, or just doesn't feel as vibrant or dynamic as the way the manga had them drawn. And I know there is a difference, but the dancing feels very average or okay. I am looking forward to seeing more due to music and the great characters/story, but I hope the dancing during Tenpei cup is a lot better.
>>
>>160469658
>but the dancing feels very average or okay
This, it's pretty disappointing but the rest is good enough to let it pass. Some of the frames were amazing, but some other were pretty bad in comparison, mainly Tatara's smile while dancing, it was much better in the manga both in art and impact. Overall they are doing a pretty good job, even though it could be better since the mistakes are small things you wouldn't expect them to fuck up.
>>
>>160470087
I looked back and while the dancing wasn't a big highlight this early on, the IMPACT of the movement made those panels. It made you feel the intensity emanating. That's where this lacks. Hopefully during Tenpei it's stronger and better.

This was something I thought I'd wait a bit on, worried about buddies saying it looked good or bad affecting, but no, I feel it.

I will say a minor thing is the way they changed the disqualification to afterwards. I feel it really makes the moment to hear that call out as Hyodo's falling

>>160469658
I agree the dancing is lackluster but I feel like it might be a budget or pacing issue, nicely animating a bunch of dances sounds great but would be time consuming and cost a lot for the studio and showing a full dance in the manga is great but it translating that to the anime and still having time to get to all the stuff that happens outside the dances might be a bit much for them

Well in actual dancesport it's important to the posture to keep the spine and neck elongated I hear, and chinese cartoons exaggerate everything anyway.

I'm really enjoying the anime and I feel like delving into the manga, but I'm worried getting too far ahead in the manga will ruin it for me.

Can anyone advise me on this? Has anyone ever been really excited about an anime and started reading the manga? Did this ruin the anime for you or not?
>>
>>160485308
I did with Made in Abyss, and with several others. It depends. If you aren't a suoer dedicated watcher to a show, you might end up just not watching. I fell behind on BnH anime and did this. But I think it enhances due to being able to see how the anime takes some things and how it brings to live what you love. And you get to look forward to each episode knowing what it brings but wondering how they'll do it. Like said earlier, the only big problem you'll see is that the intensity or feel of the dance in the anime, imo, feels just meh or alright, it's nothing amazing and doesn't hold the intensity or fluidity/motion of the manga. But I highly recommend it. The manga is so good

It's perfection and everything I could've asked for from an adaptation. If you guys are disappointed because the dancing scenes weren't no-stop movement, you need to set your expectations lower, this is a regular TV production and not something like Gurren Lagann where the animation constantly outdoes itself.
>>
>>160487666
Hell, even with stuff like Haikyu, people don't complain about the animation not being non-stop movement, but suddenly everyone wants this to be the anime with the most resources from 2017 because it's about dancing or what?
>>
>>160487758
It's because everybody was telling how this was the next Yuri on Ice, creating expectations for these long, uninterrupted dance scenes.

Which is strange because those were just repeat time wasting filler in a story that didn't have the need to actually get anywhere.
>>
>>160487919
Something does not add up, YoI recycled the shit out of the same dance scenes and had fucked up and deformed characters in the second half because the production was falling apart.

It was like that in the beginning, which is also why you have the fanservice shots in the first few chapters and never afterwards (apart from the hot springs chapter but that's different)

>ANN: What was your first personal reaction to the Welcome to the Ballroom manga? Did you read it first as a casual reader, or did you read it first as research for the project? What was your impression?

>Itazu:
I didn't actually know about this title. Ms. Matsushita, the producer from Production I.G, contacted me about it and that was the first time I'd heard of it. I felt like it was a really hot title.
>Chiba:
For me, it was also when Ms. Matsushita proposed the project, that was the first time I heard about the title, so I started reading it then. At first, I was worried about if we could really do that, but that was also like a trigger to realizing I had to try it for this project.
>Kinoshita:
I'm also in charge of Attack on Titan, Welcome to the Ballroom, and Yuki Yuna Is a Hero. I've been a really big fan of this comic for many years. I was looking for the right production company, so I went to many places, I talked to a computer graphics company and also an animation production company, saying it's about competitive dance. It's a really tough subject to express through hand-drawn animation or CG, so I could not find partners for a long time, but one guy working for Kodansha told me about an animation producer named Ms. Matsushita. She's also producing Haikyu!!, and she's so into that title and Welcome to the Ballroom, so that's why we're here.
>>
>>160495982
>>That actually leads into my next question. This situation is similar in some ways to Yuri!!! on Ice, which was famously turned down a lot by a lot of different studios because of the super-complicated figure skating involved. I guess the ballroom dancing was the chief problem you had to solve before being able to produce the show for television?

>Itazu:
Of course, the dancing scenes are hand-drawn, so we had to find a person who can act as the head and manage all that. We found action animators who specialize in dancing scenes and just assigned two people to arrange all the stuff around that process.

>>This is the director's first TV anime, though you debuted as the director on Pigtails. Do you see yourself staying as a director or do you want to return to animation and character design work as well?

>Itazu:
Basically, you cannot continue to work if you don't get the offer to work as a director. If I'm satisfied with my work, I will for sure continue doing it.

Speaking of that debut, if things had gone differently, you would've been working on Satoshi Kon's final film, The Dreaming Machine. American fans in particular are obsessed with Satoshi Kon and that film. Do you have any anecdotes from your time working on that film? What was that like for you?

>Itazu:
Everything I'm able to do now, working on animation or even my opinion on movies and films, comes from what Mr. Kon taught me. So, still when I work nowadays, I often remember what Mr. Kon told me and taught me.
>>
>>160496020
>This team that you've assembled is very impressive, you're working with Shingo Takenaka as the main animator. You all have experience in television anime, but it also seems like this team would be exceptional at producing a feature. Do you feel restricted by working with this team on a television show?
>Itazu:
The team consists of mainly two parts, those who knew Matsushita and those I know from other works. Many of Matsushita's contacts draw the backgrounds and are excellent painters, so I care that this talent isn't given short shrift, that those precious pictures are featured. The people that I know personally, they capture scenes of realism. So if I want to express the feelings of characters or I want to capture dramatic moments, I rely on them. But it's not like they are stopping me or putting the brakes on what I want because it's television.

>Speaking of the limitations of television anime, if you don't mind sharing: how far ahead are you on production for this show?
>Itazu:
We've mostly finished the scenario and we're done with half the layout.

>For Takahiro Chiba, you worked as chief animation director on Haikyu!!, which is the same role you have on this production. The designs you're working with this time seem a lot more complex to supervise and crazy detailed than they were on Haikyu!! Did you notice a big difference, and was this show harder for you in that regard?
>Chiba:
Actually the character designs are the same in complexity, but the original work is totally different. In Haikyu!!, you don't have the sensual part to animate, that touch of eroticism. That's the kind of challenge we want to face.
>>
>>160496065
>>Haikyu!!'s animation designs were also done by Takahiro Kishida. After working with his designs so much, do you feel like they're influencing your art?
>Chiba:
I myself believe I have been influenced by them, but I actually don't know how much it reaches you all. I believe I have my own style to draw, but it is heavily influenced. Actually, the beauty of Kishida's drawing are the several characteristic aspects he always has. His designs are simple, but sensitive and emotional, and I try to capture that too in my drawings. But I think you have to decide if this is successful.

>>Competitive dancing is a sport of constant movement, and we talked a little bit about the difficulty of animating this. Can you tell us about the solutions you used for animating complicated dancing sequences in a TV anime?
>Chiba:
As the director said, we have those great action animators who mainly manage this work. I just care for Mr. Kishida's will to create the image. For the dancing part, we used the choreography of professional dancers, just copy and draw the reference footage.

>>The manga is a little bit more like an action manga. The dancing is illustrated a lot more violently, not like a shoujo manga where there's sparkles and stuff. Did that illustrative style inform your decision to hire action animators?
>Itazu:
We care about the image of this boy. Normally, he's a nothing kind of guy, but when he starts dancing he's like the hot guy. We wanted to express the change between a useless boy and being that attractive dancer, to stress this difference and tease it out. Those scenes where there's a lot of movement have to be really clear, and the scenes where there's not much movement have to be very calm so that you have this stark difference.
>>
>>160496102
>>For Mr. Kinoshita, you started as a production assistant at Production I.G and after joining Pony Canyon, you've been in charge of a lot of IG projects. Is that a coincidence or is that intentional?
>Kinoshita:
Intentional, intentional. Production I.G and Pony Canyon had never worked together before I came along. Basically, my boss and a Production I.G president had a meeting at my wedding party. So I used my wedding party.

>>Really? Congratulations.
Kinoshita:
>Yes, it's a start.

>The biggest title you've ever produced is obviously Attack on Titan, which is a Kodansha manga just like this one, but they're published in different magazines. Do you think this has the potential to be anywhere as big as Attack on Titan was?
Kinoshita:
>Oh yeah, of course.

So Tatara is stuck with Chinatsu forever, unless he can find a better partner in the future.

according to the first chapter, no he is not

Nah, at this point, can Tatara even win against Shizuku? She's going abroad too, it's too late for him.

and not everything will go that way anon, as far as the plot is considered she's part of the cast

>They cut out Hyoudou getting fired up after the accidental meeting in the bathroom, and subsequently how he potentially fell down the stairs. The anime seems to imply either he fell down while walking up or Iwakuma pushed him, where in the manga it seems more like Hyoudou fell because meeting Tatara made him more tense and he walked too fast.

I hope so. At the pace we are going we will definitely reach Chinatsu in the second cour. Which means the training camp, which means the onsen scene, which means Hyoudou's naked cucaracha .

How would Shizuku not notice his damn leg after a decade of dancing with him?
She's quite shit as a partner...
>>
>>160450066
She looks so pretty animated, but her seiyuu is fucking up by not giving her an accent.
>>
Tatara is so fucking pathetic. Guy comes in and takes Shizuku right in front of his face all while laughing in his face and all Tatara can do is look like he's about to cry. I fucking hate MC's like this. And Shizuku herself is becoming such a shit. And yes I'm reading the manga and I know that at least Tatara gets some development, but that isn't until much later.
>>
>>160507667
>And yes I'm reading the manga
Then continue reading, because Tatara will beat that guy with his sister.
>>
What a fucking slut. They should just rename this to NTR e Youkoso. Chinatsu can't come any sooner.
>>
>>160507667
What did you expect him to do? He's not on her level, there's no way he can pair with her. This isn't your dumb romance show, the MC is going to become a better dancer and his main rival is actually Shizuku. Maybe you should finish reading the manga.
>>
NOW I'VE LOST IT
>>
>>160507861
I'm completely caught up and this isn't about romance. Tatara has only just started acting like he has a pair of balls. Doesn't excuse the fact that he's even more pathetic than the MC of Hero Academia with his constant crying. And his crush on Shizuku makes it even worse. The author should have had him get over her by now. That whore does nothing but drag the series down.

It's a dancing show bro, calm yourself with your romance-feeling bullshit. And I don't watch Hero Academia so I don't care about that.

It's worthless to argue about it here. The fanbase of Ballroom is autistic as fuck like with most shows/manga.

Can you read you fucking retard? I literally said it has nothing to do with romance. It's the MC and his interactions with other characters, especially Shizuku that I'm complaining about.
>>
>>160508263
>autistic as fuck
What? Explain then, or are you just complaining MC is a pussy and his crush is a whore over and over again? You can say that to 80% of the shows this season.

What's wrong with her? She just want to dance, and she does care for Tatara and Hyodo too. Just because she agreed to dance with that guy make you angry? Stop projecting your insecurity, fag.

>>160507667
Dude you know how much worse it would have been it Tatara told them what Hyodo said to him? He can't claim Shizuku because she's not his partner and if he mentioned Hyodo said she should dance with him she would've immediately went with Gaju anyway. Right now Shizuku is pissed off and doesn't want to do what anyone tells her to do.
