10 Dance #7

Volume 7 of Inouesatoh's 10 Dance arrives in a shower of golden confetti, its cover showcasing two elegant dancers — one dark-haired, one curly-blonde — locked in a breathtaking ballroom embrace that captures both the tension and the intimacy at the heart of this series. The ornate panel listing all ten disciplines (Waltz, Tango, Quickstep, Cha-Cha-Cha, Samba, Rumba, and more) is a fitting reminder of just how high the competitive stakes are for these two rivals-turned-partners. If you've been following their complicated partnership on the floor, this 2023 Kodansha USA edition is exactly the kind of beautifully rendered chapter you won't want to skip.
