"Welcome To The Ballroom" Anime Featured In New English-Subtitled Promo

Pony Canyon has posted an English-subtitled version of the brand-new promo for their big, summer anime, Welcome to the Ballroom, which will run Saturday-into-Sunday on MBS starting July 8, 2017 26:08. This offers a first chance to hear Unison Square Garden's theme, "10% roll, 10% romance." 

 

A professional dancer named Sengoku rescues Tatara, an introverted third-year middle school student who is being harassed by delinquents. Tatara ends up at Sengoku’s dance studio where he meets Shizuku Hanaoka, a schoolmate he secretly idolizes. This is the defining moment when Tatara enters the world of dance. Sengoku is a free-spirited, dynamic international dancer who recognizes Tatara’s potential and begins to coach him. Through dance, Tatara meets another schoolmate, a dance prodigy named Kiyoharu. With these new friendships, Tatara develops a passionate desire to improve as a dancer and be accepted by his peers and rivals, which nurtures his own native talent. And through interaction with Tatara, other dance members are encouraged to take steps to overcome their own challenges and issues.
