The World Is Dancing

Finished

ワールド イズ ダンシング

In 14th-century Japan, twelve-year-old Oniyasha is born into a traveling theater troupe, a life dedicated to acting and dance. Yet, he finds himself plagued by fundamental questions about his art, unable to grasp the meaning behind every precise step or what truly separates a good performance from a bad one. The purpose of dance itself feels utterly arbitrary to him.

This aimlessness persists until a fateful meeting in a dilapidated shack alters the course of his life. This encounter ignites a spark within Oniyasha, setting him on a transformative path where he begins to question, refine, and ultimately seek to revolutionize the performing arts of his era. His personal journey of discovery is set against the backdrop of a culturally rich and turbulent period in Japanese history.
