MAPPA again animating multiple shows together.

I am losing hope for all shows.

I think the adaptation is good enough

Why is it "Dance Dance Danseur " and not "Danse Danse Danseur" when romanized, that feels so half hassed like that

I'm very looking forward to this one.
I hope MAPPA doesn't mess up.

i dont remember any other proper dance anime other than welcome to ballroom. so I am pretty excited. these kind of show are rare

mappa's REALLY going for it and looks like they're not stopping anytime soon lmao. hope the show is nice, and whoevers working on it are happy and satisfied

looks interesting tho !! a ballet anime which is already not common, but with a male mc to top it off ! its still next year so im probably gonna read the manga first but i do hope they do the adaptaion well, especially the dance choreography. always hype to see a dance/performance focused anime since the "dances" they usually do a lot of shows shows are.. Erm yeah

As long as they get the dance stuff right, I think it'll be or should be good, I mean it is MAPPA after all.
Also F in the chat for the MAPPA staff who got another anime on their plate to work on.

@samashi20 you might find this interesting.

Ayo MAPPA, can you chill?

This'll be interesting for sure. It's a drama too. I'm looking forward to the choreographies. I wonder if they'll be able to 2D animate this.

Given their workload at this point, I'm not optimistic that Ice Adolescence will ever be finished.

I'm excited for this series, although I agree with you that Ice Adolescence may never be completed.

Could it be possible that MAPPA are waiting to release Ice Adolescence as part of a 10 year Yuri on Ice anniversary kinda thing. After all, it has been five years since the series debuted.

But back to dance dance danseur, I wonder who will be in charge of the dance choreography.

MAPPA going all Yuri on Ice about this one...in the same exact genre.

I was worried this one might not get a decent animation. So I'm delightfully surprised to find out MAPPA's doing it. Looking forward to it. Hope they nail the variations cuz ballet is beautiful

Sep 8, 2021 7:12 AM by jenkk

I ain't surprised that it's MAPPA, given that they'll take anything nowadays. This could be another Ballroom e Youkoso, or another Yuri on Ice. It entirely depends.

They're making anything into an anime now lol...I'll check this out though, maybe it'll hook me like Welcome to the Ballroom did

"Junpei is happily snoozing away during his sister's ballet recital when a male ballet dancer steps onto the stage. Moved by the strength and skills the dancer displays, the boy discovers his love for this art."

Because that's exactly how it always happens, lmao.

I just did a research about this manga and it seems to be a seinen and it is written by an experienced shoujo mangaka. Also this is similar to blue period in terms of synopsis but I still haven't read the manga.

I put this in my plan to watch list when it was previously announced and now it's MAPPA again...at this point whenever a new anime will be announced I'm gonna be like “I'm guessing it'll be MAPPA”

anyway, it looks like the zombie land saga team will be doing this I hope some Yuri on Ice staff works on it too cuz they can work on the dance scene nicely.

I think the joke that MAPPA loves anything that are or looks gay will soon cease to be a joke entirely.

Well prepare for a lot of people shaking their heads off because they see MAPPA (insert doh sound) in the studio credit. At this point, I have been numb by this, so I might as well just get on with it.

Now aside from my MAPPA opinion, i don't know about this anime, but maybe I'll be interested. I mean the studio is making bank on the sports genre. And more often than not, the quality that they put out are decent to actual great shxt. And it's a ballet anime, so expect some nice animation (even if it's 3D).

So yeah another sports anime from yours truly, MAPPA. And just like me, just get on with it.

thought that said Dance Dance Dinosaur; hmm not really into these types of shows but maybe once the PV drops I’ll see if it’s worth trying
