''The official Twitter account for the Welcome to the Ballroom manga posted a note from creator Tomo Takeuchi about the anime adaptation on Monday. The note reveals that the plot of the anime's story will pass the manga before the end of the Metropolitan Tournament.''

''Takeuchi's full note reads:

Thank you very much to everyone on the cast and staff for creating a wonderful anime.
For the end game of Metropolitan Tournament, the original work and the anime were going to advance the story at the same pace, but the original work is falling behind so the anime will go ahead of it. The original work isn't finished, but I will convey my plans for it to advance.

Furthermore, as I continue to work on the original, I will set my sights on developments that happen at the Metropolitan Tournament and after. I think I will release parts that differ from the anime, though they will start from the same plan, but I will be happy if people enjoy either the anime or the manga.''

That was expected, considering how the current tournament in the manga is far from over, plus the mangaka's illnesses prevent her from releasing the chapters consistently. I'm sure the anime will end up being similar to the manga, even if they're passing the manga's content. Probably some scenes will differ or something.

Heck yeah. I was afraid that the ending of the anime may be different from that of the manga when new chapters are released. I hope her illness is getting better. Ballroom e youkoso has such a mesmerizing story and I can't wait to see more.

Good to know, explains why the dances in the last 2 episodes felt kind of weak. I mean, they were not bad but had no impact too like some previous dances had.
