    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Story and art by Coffee. Translated by Kevin Steinbach. Kaboku has always just gone with the flow, marching in step to the drumbeat of the expectations of those around him: parents, school, plans for the future. It feels predictable, safe, and... empty. But one night, Kaboku's at school late, and he happens on a girl alone, moving wildly, turning a blank space of concrete into a canvas. This is Hikari Wanda, a member of the hip-hop dance club. Kaboku is immediately smitten, but the road to stepping out of his shell is a long one. The club is almost entirely girls, and they're all, well, way better than him. What's ahead is unknown, and that's terrifying, but it also means, for the first time in Kaboku's life a taste of freedom. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, B&W. Cover price $12.99.

    Volume 4 - 1st printing. Story and art by Coffee. Translated by Kevin Steinbach. Kaboku's growing confidence as a dancer and his deepening friendship with Iori inspire him to branch out and try breakdancing. He and Wanda head for the park where the local B-Boys practice, and they seem to make a real impression. Gaku Kabeya is the one breaker who seems above it all, and if he acts a little arrogant, maybe it's because he's really, really good at what he does. He thinks Kabo has what it takes to be a great breakdancer, but will Kabeya's history with Iori get in the way of the two of them being friends? Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, B&W. Cover price $12.99.

    Volume 5 - 1st printing. Story and art by Coffee. Translated by Kevin Steinbach. The dance competition continues, with Wanda squaring off against a young man who tries to taunt her into making a mistake. She manages to stand her ground, and the sight of Wanda dancing once again sparks something inside of Kabo that cements how he feels about dancing-and Wanda. As he faces his own insecurities in the contest, Kabo comes to a realization about how he needs to approach his dancing. Will it be enough to save him from defeat at the hands (and feet, and arms, and whirling torsos...) of more experienced dancers? And he's not the only one who has some soul-searching to do; after being pitted against a talented friend, Iori will have to dig deep and find a style that's uniquely his own if he wants to step and prove that he has what it takes to challenge Assay. Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, B&W. Cover price $12.99.

    Volume 6 - 1st printing. Story and art by Coffee. Translated by Kevin Steinbach. Kaboku Kotani is starting high school, and he plans to do what he's always done: go along with his friends, keep quiet, and not to draw too much attention to himself. After all, it's hard enough to get by with a stutter like his-why make things worse by standing out from the crowd? But then he sees another first-year, Hikari Wanda, dancing like no one is watching-or like she doesn't care who sees her. It makes Kaboku wonder: Could he reach that same freedom? To find his way to Wanda, he does something he never thought he could: He joins the dance club. After all, every routine begins with a single step, right? Softcover, 5-in. x 7-in., 176 pages, B&W. Cover price $12.99.
