Of all the sports manga, I feel like ballet is one of the most interesting, because it can have such extreme narratives of failure, due to how ruthless the field competition is. You have to sacrifice your entire childhood, build up barely any transferable skills, the margin of success to 'make it' is unbelievably slim and often it can end up just due to not having the genetics for it (both physically and mentally). I think this chapter really highlights that well. Really cool, thanks for the TL.
