Comment from Daiki Yamashita, who plays Junpei Murao
─ How did you feel when you were chosen to play the role of Junpei Murao?
I was very happy because I thought the portrayal of his heart was very wonderful and I was hoping to play the role.

To those who are looking forward to the TV anime
Since it is based on ballet, you can't miss the dance scenes, and I think everyone is paying particular attention to them.
I have not been able to see the finished product at this point, but I have the feeling that a great deal of effort was put into it from the postrecording stage.
Professional dancers created the motion-capture movements, which were then incorporated into the animation, and then the dancers danced to the music.
I'm really looking forward to it, so please look forward to it!
