10 Dance #3

Volume 3 of Inouesatoh's *10 Dance* radiates the electric tension at the heart of this series, with two strikingly contrasted dancers — a curly-haired, bare-chested figure in a red sash and a dark-haired partner in a glittering black shirt — caught mid-movement, eyes locked on each other. The cover's tracery of dance arrows and a listing of styles (Tango, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Rumba, Paso Doble, and more) beautifully frames the world these two competitors share. If you've been following their complicated partnership, this 2019 Kodansha USA release keeps the rhythm going in style.
