Beat & Motion summary

You are reading Beat & Motion, a manga that covering comedy, drama, music, shounen, slice of life. Beat & Motion (ビート＆モーション, Beat & Motion ) is a coming-of-age drama manga by Naoki Fujita that explores creativity, dreams, and the courage to try again. The story follows Tatsuhiko, who dreamed of becoming an animator as a kid, but after being relentlessly teased by classmates he abandoned art. Later, music briefly captures his heart when he joins a band, but when that ends, his cynicism deepens and he convinces himself that dreams are useless. One night, though, a chance confrontation with a drunk woman, angry at his dismissal of other people’s dreams, reignites Tatsuhiko’s passion. He begins uploading short animations online, and is eventually offered the chance to create a music video for Nico, an artist he’s admired for years—who turns out to be the same woman who scolded him before. As they collaborate, both Tatsuhiko and Nico help each other grow, facing obstacles like self-doubt, creative control, and conflicting pasts. Beat & Motion is ultimately a stirring tale of rekindled hopes, artistic partnership, and the messy, beautiful work of becoming who you want to be.
