I love how they have the biggest/tallest people doing some of the most acrobatic dance moves. Honestly a few of them you can see they had to stretch the animation for them doing it on a few.
I think it's pretty telling that even in the group section, Balan looks the least strange with this animation. The lanky and smooth shapes really help ease the MMD wonkiness
They actually contracted the person who did the soundtrack for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, if I'm not mistaken. Anyone familiar with that game knows the composer got talent.

Fun Trivia- There are three songs and four dance stages. Each combo is used once for each character- there’s no repeats in that sense.
