The anime is based on Coffee’s Wandance street dance manga.

Kodansha USA Publishing releases the manga in English under the same name, and it published the manga’s 13th volume in August 2025. Kodansha USA describes the manga’s story below:
“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?”
