ZOMBIE LAND SAGA director Munehisa Sakai has danced into the director’s chair for Dance Dance Danseur, with Pretty Cure Splash Star screenwriter Yoshimi Narita penning the series composition and Kimi ni Todoke – From Me To You assistant character designer Hitomi Hasegawa designing the characters. The animation will be produced at MAPPA. Crunchyroll has already confirmed that it’ll be streaming the series, describing it as such:

 

Danseur noble–a ballet dancer qualified to dance the role of the prince. Second-year junior high school student Murao Junpei was fascinated by ballet as a boy, but gave up on dancing after his father’s death, as he had to become a man. However, one day, a beautiful transfer student named Godai Miyako appears before him. Miyako takes notice in Junpei’s love of ballet and invites him to dance with her. Along with Miyako’s cousin Mori Ruou, he begins his career as a full-fledged ballet dancer, with the aim of becoming the world’s best dancer–the Danseur noble! Only those who have sacrificed everything are permitted to stand in the beautiful and harsh world of classical ballet. What will be the fate of a total beginner like Junpei?! Popular manga artist Asakura George’s first TV anime adaptation is the story of the passionate adolescence of a group of ballet dancers by MAPPA (production) and Sakai Munehisa (director)!!
