The Magnificent Grand Scene

A manga about a young girl’s journey into becoming a ballerina.

Really solid sports manga! Initially I was more curious about reading a non-hentai work by Cuvie but I ended up being pleasantly surprised at how good this series is. Our main character Kanade shares a lot of similar characteristics you find in shonen sports protagonists. She’s upbeat and friendly even to harsh rivals, she fails but always gets back up to try again, and she has her own unique talent that others acknowledge and envy. I also like that it’s a ballet manga that actually focuses on female ballet dancers unlike Dance Dance Danseur, though the artwork is not quite as dynamic in comparison.

A great sports series that focuses on female characters. We need more sports series like this one. It’s available digitally through Kindle & comiXology.
