After School Etude Series

Love hits the right notes in this Boys’ Love manga about two unlikely dance partners who make the perfect pair.

When Minobe Chihiro is admitted to a private arts academy to study ballet, the last person he expects to train with is surly second-year Ichinomiya Shun. Yet by some stroke of luck, the two are paired up for their school’s mandatory pas de deux practice. While Minobe has fallen at first sight for Ichinomiya’s superior dance sense, the second year’s attitude leaves a lot to be desired. For Ichinomiya, being paired with Minobe as a dance partner is just one of the ways he’d like to be together with his new partner. It’s not just grades that have Ichinomiya dancing with Minobe—he’s head over heels, and he’s after Minobe’s heart!

THE DESIRE TO PARTNER FOREVER.

Ballet student Minobe and upperclassman Ichinomiya are officially dating. As partners in pas de deux practice, on home dates together, and even their daily school lives seem so sweet, yet things are about to take a sour turn. Out of the blue, a Russian ballet troupe has set their eyes on Ichinomiya and are doing their utmost to recruit him! Ichinomiya’s inherent talent shines for all to see, so it’s no wonder he’s been scouted, but now Minobe must face his smothered desire to be with Ichinomiya forever.
