AniWorthTribe Cool Crew
Introduction
Haneru Tobitatsu is a hyperactive middle schooler with a passion for dancing. Inspired by his idol Jey El, the hottest star in the world of dancing, Haneru practices outside Memorial Hall every day after school. Unbeknownst to him, his "secret" practice sessions are being watched by Kanon Otosaki—her true identity being the famous online dancer, Rhythm—who also frequents the same location for practice. When Haneru finds out about this, he shows an immediate interest in teaming up with her.
Slowly realizing the joy of performing with others, the duo makes their way into the world of street dancing, where they meet Kumonosuke, Mizuki, and Yuzuru, ultimately forming the dance group "Tribe Cool Crew." As they face off against tough competition, they strive to one day realize their dream of sharing the stage with Jey El.

Tribe Cool Crew is a one-of-a-kind anime. Dance anime are a rarity to begin with, let alone one as well-researched and well-executed as TriCool. TriCool is a kids' anime seemingly aimed at older elementary-school age children, and contains a variety of episodic plots in a larger dancing tournament-based storyline. And despite a rough start, Tribe Cool Crew is a legitimately *good* show. It's host to an eccentric and engaging cast of characters, interesting and fun dances, and an absolutely stellar soundtrack. The show goes between comedic and serious, and slowly makes its way towards the finish line of the end of the main tournament hosted by international dancing sensation Jay El.
There are many aspects which distinguish Tribe Cool Crew as a standout production. The dancing, the music,…

Ah, yes. Tribe Cool Crew. That kid's show about dancing. Good times... Wait, what? "It looked stupidly cheesy and probably terrible so I didn't even give it a try?"
Well, in a way, you may be correct in your judgment, but I wouldn't write it off as such so quickly. Most things have their merits. And in this review of mine here, I'll try to give my own assessment of its clear, definitely existent strengths and its lower points.
In general, the plot is exactly as you'd expect it: it's about a group of people who set out to be good enough dancers to share stage with their idol aka Michael Jackson of Dancing one day; a typical plot for the young audience this is targeting. Said plot moves itself forward with the inclusion of a top secret dancing tournament to pick out the best dancers of a g…

Don't be misled by the art style, thinking that the show is more directed towards a younger audience. The show starts off seeming like a kids show about street dancing, but as you get further and further into each episode you start to see the show itself steering into a slightly more mature tone. Granted, the show itself does not reach levels of maturity that are too violent or sexual for children, but rather it makes it more enjoyable for viewers who are older in age.
The dancing segments are extremely unique. As in, I myself have certainly never seen a show animate dancing quite like Sunrise or BN studios does in this show. The scenes involving dance appear quite slow at first, but as the story progresses we see each dancer character learn new techniques and trains more; choreographing…

We should all feel some level of appreciation for Crunchyroll at this point. When I started really watching anime, the popular things were licensed, most of the late-night otaku shows were fansubbed (if not a little late sometimes), and more pertinently, if you were into kids shows, you could count on the big, long-running franchises - your Pretty Cures and Jewelpets - to be subtitled eventually, depending on the demand for such things. Nowadays though, while not everything will get picked up, Crunchyroll does seem to try their best to pick up as many things as possible to serve every possible audience they can every single week. Tribe Cool Crew is one of those weird little kids cartoons that probably would have never seen any exposure in the English-speaking (and Spanish-speaking, and Por…
