Favorite dancing scenes in anime

[pianocello]

What are your favorite dancing scenes in anime?
To get the ball rolling, here are some of my favorites:
(1) Trouble Chocolate 2nd ED - I liked the energy of it.
(2) Joshikousei ED - I love the character designs and how different the characters were moving.
(3) Simoun - Aeru and Neviril. Romance
While there was nothing spectacular about the dancing, the scene was very poignant because these were two characters who were very much in love with each other and had already confessed to each other.

- Utena and Anthy dancing to 'Toki ni, Ai wa' in the Utena movie
- The Boys Over Flowers OP
- Yuuichi and Mai dancing in episode 12 of Kanon 2K6

There's been some fabulous dancing in certain episodes of Ayakashi Ayashi.

First Maze ending theme. Junk Boy.
When they were showing at a local anime club once people starting dancing long with it! :)

"Dance Like You Want To Win!" :D

- Utena and Anthy dancing to 'Toki ni, Ai wa' in the Utena movie

Yes! That is the very first thing that came to mind before I even finished reading the title of this thread.



"Dance Like You Want To Win!"

...or perhaps the practice dancing they did before their mission in that episode. :D


Haruka & Michiru in Sailor Moon S - but it's been so long since I've last watched that that I can't think of any specific scene for them. I'm sure they did in at least the episode with the couples competition.

And maybe not a dance per se, but there's that cute little thing that the fairies do in the OP of Sugar when they move quickly from side to side.

The OP of Sakura Wars TV is good too.

The roses dancing scene in RG: Utena the Movie. Pretty awesome and surreal.

[Splitter]

Right after Kanon 2006 12 too... which BTW, easily wins. My god, they just did for dancing what they did for singing in Haruhi 12.

Yeah, that was amazing.

And then following it up with an entirely different form of "dance".

[AbeChinchilla]

Utena and Anthy in the Utena movie.

[2old2care]

ZOE: Dolores dreaming of being Cinderella at the ball, dancing with her Prince Charming, Sir Uncle.

Interstella 5555: Everyone groovin' to the righteous sounds of the CrescenDolls. :)

[saeba_ryo]

Gotta be the epiosode in Sailormoon where Rei, Minako, and Usagi were klutzes during the dancing lessons while Ami and Makoto had no trouble at all.

[KShinjo]

A few that came to my mind...

1. the 1st OP to Kodocha (19-ji no News)

2. the OP of Hare+Guu

3. the ED of [b]D4 Princess[b]

[Rando]

Tokimeki Tonight: Everyone dancing ala hadaka manto in the last episode. SUPER LOVE LOTION~ :D

[LimePie]

Utena Movie - 'Toki Ni, Ai Wa' scene.
Kanon 2006 - Episode 12 Mai's dance with Yuuichi Princess Tutu - Episode 13Tutu expresses her feelings to Mytho without words.

[Krate]

Kodocha OP2 ("Ultra Relax")Yakitate!! Japan ED2 ("To All Tha Dreamers") Sgt. Frog ED1 ("Afro Sergeant")

[Njr Scrawl]

Last introduction to Maison Ikkoku. The residents to "Hidamari" by Kouzou Murashita (eps 77-96). Goofy but funny.

[StanS]

OK, I like the perky little line dance at the beginning of Little Snow Fairy Sugar.

I do not care if that counts or not^^

Neither did I. :neko:

I rather liked Yuri's brief, fun, and totally gratuitous moves in the Dirty Pair Movie (Project Eden). Seems like she had a change of perspective since DPTV where it was Kei who usually liked a dance!

[Spirit Of The Stage]

Definitely Ken's dance at the 2nd Yakitate Japan ending and Weda/Guu's disco fever in Hare + Guu, and pretty much ANY ballet scene in Princess Tutu...a few others;

Haruka/Wataru dancing in Sister Princess - really captured the mood of a wish come true and very sweetly done.

Sailor Moon Super S - Makoto is left alone and then Ami comes and offers her hand - this is probably the scene I finally got the Ami/Mako shoujo-ai fans with this sweet yet energetic dance scene.

Eri and Yakumo - School Rumble 2nd Term - The prince and the witch...enough said. *nosebleeds*

The opening to Tenjho Tenge - Go Bob!

Chrno Chrusade - Rosette's and Chrno first clumsy but then getting into it dance during the festival.

And of course...

Cardcaptor Sakura - 2nd Movie. Li and Sakura - one of the sweetest scenes ever.

[vtr9kvictor]

Haruhi Suzumiya Ending. Best. Dance. Ever.
Sakura and Li from the second CCS movie was good too.

[Chloe]

I'm rather fond of that little routine that Excel and Hyatt go through during the OP for Excel Saga myself. :)

[something]

In terms of ACTUAL DANCING I didn't really have any until just now: Kanon (2006) episode 12 = unadulterated win.

[itsuka]

Princess Tutu episode 13 is my favourite. That dance meant so much, and was so center to the plot and the heart of the series that I will never forget it.
