Synopsis

Junpei Murao used to not like ballet, but after seeing a man perform it, he suddenly finds himself fascinated by the art.

Characters

Junpei Murao (村尾 潤平, Murao Junpei)
Voiced by: Daiki Yamashita[1]
A 14 year old boy who took a liking to ballet since he was younger. He cut his aspirations short after his father, a stunt performer, passed away. Due to being the only male of his he took his uncle's advise to become more "masculine" to be a pillar of support to his family and quit ballet, instead practicing Jeet Kune Do under his tutelage. Upon his encounter with Miyako, Junpei's passion for ballet is reignited and begins to rediscover himself and his meaning of masculinity after seeing Luou dance. Although a talented dancer, Junpei struggles in learning ballet due to lacking the fundamentals of the art as he lacked continuous training and tends to prioritize his own emotions over proper technique. However, he is noted by many to have prodigious characteristics and an ideal body for ballet. Through multitude tribulations, he comes to grasp the essence of ballet while humbling himself in the process, growing more mature as a person and dancer.
Ruō Mori (森 流鶯, Mori Ruō)
Voiced by: Koki Uchiyama[2]
A shy 14-year-old boy, he is Miyako's cousin. The son of an american idol, he was abandoned by his mother following a scandal that exposed him as the son of her mother with another man who was not her husband. Raised by her strict, ballet obsessed grandmother, Luou grew under a physically and emotionally abusive environment with little to no contact with the outside world, learning only ballet. As a result, Luou has weak social skills, but his dancing prowess is unparalleled. Despite his tremendous skill, Luou's social reclusion weakens his ability to learn and express himself properly. Luou is in love with Miyako and sees Junpei as a nuisance, but it is through their adventures, that he is able to break out of his shell and grow more as a person.
Miyako Godai (五代 都, Godai Miyako)
Voiced by: Kaede Hondo[2]
Luou's cousin. A 14 year old girl and the daughter of Chizuru. Miyako has learned ballet from her mother since an early age. Although skilled, Miyako's personality is deemed unsuitable by her mother to perform in large roles. Miyako discovers Junpei's ability and realizes he has skill for ballet which causes him to reignite his passion for the dance. A kind and polite girl, Miyako has conflicted feelings about Junpei and Luou, both of whom she cares for. She worries for Luou in particular, being aware of his circumstances.
Misaki Yasuda (安田 海咲, Yasuda Misaki)
Voiced by: Kōhei Amasaki[3]
Yamato Takura (田倉 大和, Takura Yamato)
Voiced by: Koutaro Nishiyama[3]
Natsuki Oikawa (生川 夏姫, Oikawa Natsuki)
Voiced by: Misato Fukuen[3]
A sixth-grade girl, and the daughter of Ayako. Natuski is a very talented dancer whose skill is leagues above her peers, but is generally too serious and her expressions are inadequate. Proud and perfectionist, Natsuki puts tremendous effort in ballet, striving to be the best. The two have many in common in terms of how they view ballet and have been able to dance in perfect sync. Natsuki in fact feels attracted to Junpei as a dancer, as his expessive dancing matches her own views. There are hints of mutual romantic feelings between the two.
