MADHOUSE is pairing up with Cyclone Graphics to produce and animate the anime. Michiya Kato is directing the project. Popular choreographer RIEHATA who has worked with BTS, ATEEZ and other groups, is the dance producer. The anime is based on Coffee’s manga, which has been published by Kodansha. Their website describes the story as:
Kaboku Kotani is starting high school, and he plans to do what he’s always done: go along with his friends, keep quiet, and not to draw too much attention to himself. After all, it’s hard enough to get by with a stutter like his—why make things worse by standing out from the crowd? But then he sees another first-year, Hikari Wanda, dancing like no one is watching—or like she doesn’t care who sees her. It makes Kaboku wonder: Could he reach that same freedom? To find his way to Wanda, he does something he never thought he could: He joins the dance club. After all, every routine begins with a single step, right?
Join Kaboku and Wanda as they freestyle their way to life and love!
