Synopsis of Wandance

Kaboku always went with the flow, marching to the rhythm of the expectations of those around him: parents, school, plans for the future. It seems predictable, safe, and… empty. But one night, Kaboku is late for school, and he encounters a girl alone, moving wildly, transforming a blank concrete space into a canvas. This is Hikari Wanda, a member of the hip-hop dance club. Kaboku is immediately smitten, but the road to breaking out of his shell is long. The club is almost entirely female, and they are all, well, much better than him. What lies ahead is unknown, and that's terrifying, but it also means, for the first time in Kaboku's life… a taste of freedom.
