Tsuchiya, Masaharu
Awkward with girls
and has
sweating hands.
Watari, Eri
Little shy but still
wishes to improve
herself and be more
outgoing.
Side notes: This is third dance themed manga that I've been reading and liking to bits. The others are easy to count: Ballroom e Youkoso and Tetsugaku Letra. And best of all they are all different! On this manga you can count two other couples that could stand beside Tsuchiya and Watari (1st year). That's 'cause the club is quite small and there is only four others to dance with. The third year couple, Ayatsuji Rio Doigaki Masumi (All arounders); and the second year couple:  Tsubaki Akiko and Yamaki Shou (Latin Dance).
Art is good although not always "pretty." I who don't know almost anything about Ballroom dancing it's been enjoyment with every chapter so I do recommend to read it if you like a good action and characters.
