Oooo, this arc is shaping up to be quite different from the priors! One thing with Dance Dance is that it tends to stick to one main plot line / arc with either a secondary plot that tends to be pretty minor or a half-half split (usually more half-half when it's Junpei and Natsuki). The...

With how she looked at Kyo studying, I am fully ready for the author to 'reward' the main character studying hard with some relationship progress. Wouldn't be Japan without trying to 'teach' the readers that studying => good things in life happening to you heh

The author was making a pretty clear point, I think, that mom reading her diary and scolding her traumatized her into getting into this 'taboo' stuff and it just kept spiraling downwards. Don't think anyone, the author included, disagree that it's all very fucked up. That's the point.

Not necessarily, girls can kind of sniff this stuff out when a guy isn't fully committed anymore. Could also be that the whole novelty of being the gf of a ballet dancer has wore off :) Regarding the chapter, I honestly grew to really like Oikawa sensei at this point. She's stern and...

Something a lot of sports manga don't capture very well is that in many of these fields you have competitions and auditions happening constantly with stuff starting to heavily overlap. Without having much time to catch a breather after you last competition, you're already working on the next...

Machine translation doesn't have the heart/emotion that a human one does. However, quite a lot of translations are so poor with such weak prose that they're hardly a step up from MTL so it's kind of funny. So I'm personally in favor of human TL, but only if it's actually done right with passion...

Pages 1-3 are so friggin beautiful, always really happy to see the author pulling out the acrylic, so signature to this manga's style. What I find really funny is that I was fully prepared not to get pulled into the 'will he won't he' as I was opening the chapter. Firmly ready to not care about...

What a treat of a chapter! This is definitely the true Junpei; everything oozes his raw emotions and passion for his art. Though I'm surprised this really 'passed' the way it did, since he effectively went super rogue here and the performance seems far off from classical ballet. Granted the...

So are you saying that in Japan, pedophilia and rape are morally acceptable? :)

What the heck is that final page, holy moly, I'm blown away. Now will the author deliver an absolutely ludicrous art chapter or will they troll and the next ch is straight to the aftermath hahaha. The disconnect between his mind and his body is captured really well here, he has utterly given...

Idk about the rest, but I immediately felt a ton of franticaness, chaos and desperation in this chapter. With the teacher having fully bought into Junpei's fool's errand, it's like all restraints had lifted. I can't really tell if he really does see the glow in Junpei there or if he lost touch...

Now they'll spend all their free time in his room and the maids & butlers will missunderstand in the best way possible.

A lesser manga would have ended things right there - Ruo leaves, Junpei is left in complete mental defibrillation and either completely fails his performance while giving it as a complete husk of a man OR over-corrects to insanity and just starts dancing like a complete monkey - a complete...

The way this chapter is structured so differently from the rest of the manga really threw me for a loop here. It's almost like some montage of short scenes in an 80s film. Narratively, it's all connected, the continuity is there, but the way the scenes jump is very curious. I guess the...

I really don't understand this manga. It's being published yet the way it's written moment-to-moment makes absolutely no sense. It's like a fever dream. Dialogues feel cut short, don't flow at all and are just insanely awkward. It's so difficult to even read it. It's like a pre-edited script the...

Sudden sleepover? So we end the manga on yet another trope. Well, it's on brand for the author, I guess.

Same view as the others - Miyako doesn't have romantic feelings for him. It's a very messed up dynamic based on some sort of pity and over-reliance. I don't actually understand why the kiss was added. Maybe, as Warhawk said, it was initiated by Ruo and the mangaka just didn't properly highlight...

This manga is so conflicting, since it's so ecchi in a pretty trashy way, while at the same time being so wholesome. Kind of the epitome of japanese teen/young-adult fiction - it can be very neat, but my god does it sometimes come with very questionable additional baggage that makes it very...

O man, I was so worried when no new chapter translation came out for weeks. Thought you guys had to drop it :( Hope you can find a translator and thank you for this entry! In regards to the chapter, while I really liked the idea of page 16, with Junpei getting slashed by Ruo's words, the panel...

Every reader who completely misread the story and thought Hinaki was actually in the running and wasn't just a close friend going crazy is too funny. I actually quite liked the chapter, the confession was very cute and everyone progressed in the way that makes sense for this story: Hinaki...
