Kill Me Baby Ending Song's Dance Taught Step-by-Step (Updated)

On Monday, Japanese bloggers posted an image of the "Kill Me Dance" diagram that depicts the dance moves from the ending animation of the Baby, Please Kill Me! four-panel comedy manga's anime adaptation.

The chart demonstrates the 16 steps that the characters Sonya and Yasuna perform for the ending theme song "Futari no Kimochi no Honto no Himitsu" (The True Secret of the Pair's Feelings). The "Special Supplement 6" diagram crecently bundled with a separate publication. In December, the television series' official website began streaming a promotional video, different from the anime's closing sequence, that features the ending theme song.

The manga follows Sonya, an assassin girl who goes to school between missions, and her fearless yet not-so-smart friend Yasuna. Joining them is Agiri, a ninja in Sonya's organization. The manga series launched in Manga Time Kirara Carat in 2008 after the magazine ran a one-shot early version of the story. The fourth compiled book volume will ship in Japan on January 27.

Update: People noted that the animators may have modeled one scene from the opening animation sequence on the Takano-dai neighborhood in Kodaira City in Western Tokyo:
