Hip-hop dance is in the spotlight thanks to the upcoming anime adaptation of Coffee’s Wandance manga. We previously got our first look at the adaptation’s main cast, and now the first full trailer is here to show off a sample of what the staff at MADHOUSE and CYCLONE GRAPHICS has brewing.

Wandance kicked off its run in Monthly Afternoon magazine in January 2019 and has been collected in 13 volumes to date. Kodansha USA publishes the series in English and sums up the story like so:
Wandance Plot
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?
