A special video for the insert song “Step by Step feat. Sagiri Sól, Kenya Fujita” from the live-action film One Dance (ワンダンス), based on the manga by Café (珈琲), has been released online.

A Song That Closes the Film

Composed by multi-creator mabanua, “Step by Step” plays over the film’s final scene and has also inspired a Dance Challenge campaign that captures the spirit of the story. It stands as one of the most emotionally significant tracks in the production.

What the Special Video Shows

The clip opens on a brooding close-up of protagonist Kabo, accompanied by the narration: “The suffocating days — that moment, that beat, changed me.” The footage then cuts to a breathless sequence of Kabo and heroine Wanda sprinting up to a rooftop. As an upbeat tempo kicks in, the video intercuts scenes of the two dancing — joy and inner conflict colliding — as they pour every ounce of feeling they have for dance into their movement.

Story and Cast

One Dance follows Kabo (Kotani Hanaki), a young man whose stutter makes it nearly impossible to express himself. When he meets Wanda (Wanda Mitsuri), a dancer his own age, and discovers dance as a form of expression, his world begins to change.
