Junpei Murao's passion for ballet started at a young age during his sister's recital, when a male dancer sparked his interest with a compelling performance. However, Junpei fears nothing more than his peers discovering his secret love for ballet and viewing him as effeminate. Consequently, he joins the soccer club, practices Jeet Kune Do, and aims to follow his father's path as a stunt coordinator: all considered very "manly" pursuits. When his classmate Miyako Godai sees him showing off an impressive kick that blends ballet and Jeet Kune Do techniques to his friends, she immediately recruits him for her mother's ballet studio. He initially resists; although he has given up on formally pursuing ballet, nothing else matches the euphoria it brings. After suppressing his desire for so long, it is difficult for Junpei to overcome his hesitation and break free from the constraints of masculinity. He must be willing to make certain sacrifices and fully commit to ballet, all while risking the loss of some friends.
