Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (2020)

Awesome, i highly reccomend it.

I have nothing more to say about this drama than good things. At first i watched the first episode and i didn't really like it, then i wanted to give it another try and the second time i fell in love with this drama. Its literally awesome, the story is funny and make you laugh in more than an occasion, but touches also important aspects of the characters psicology and feelings, so even if there are 'magical aspects' it still is really realistic. It actually made me cry more than one time in the last episodes hahah. I also loved how the side couple behaved and how it wasn't just a 'side story', but it actually helped the main couple in their development. Speaking about development, another thing that i liked is the fact that there is in all the characters a lot of charachter development, evven tho somnetimes they fight and they go backwards. That make the drama realistic, and that's what i search when i want to watch something. Not extremely sad exc, but not always 'happy and smiling', because its irrealistic and it bores me, so what i wanted to say in a few words, is that i love this drama, and i highly reccommend it if you're a fan of soft but realistic romance.

holy sh*t I get it now

This didn’t seem like my type of show so I passed up on it for so long, but I’m so glad I checked it out. It is so cute and so sweet, but not in like a basic way where you throw some characters together and have it be fluffy.
A huge chunk of what makes this so fluffy and cute is the fact that you get to hear Kurosawa’s thoughts about Adachi, which encompass his delight about being around him, his daydreams of domestic bliss, and his wishes for Adachi’s comfort and happiness. He’s so considerate of Adachi and his feelings and doesn’t try to push him. Adachi is a bit of a flailing mess and we love him for it. Actually, that’s not fair. He’s a kind, considerate and competent person. He doesn’t realize how many people like and care about him, and a part of the show is about his character development and realizing how he’s touched people’s lives around him. It’s just really lovely to see. The side characters are fairly solid as well, especially their coworkers. I’m a big fan of Fujisaki in particular, and I believe she’s aromantic, which is so great to see! I’m not gonna lie, I did find Adachi’s best friend’s storyline less engaging and kind of skipped through it.
It’s a short and sweet show. Do yourself a favor and watch it.

Not your typical romantic BL but comedic value as expected of Japanese shows

First Japanese BL I watched! Interesting plot and comedy value as expected from Japan. Don't expect any kiss scenes from this movie but again not very necessary considering the plot.

The story discovers the supernatural myth of how 30 year old virgins get a special power to read other people's minds when they touch another person. And the way to lose this special power, the person has to lose his/her virginity.

Unexpected twist occurred when the main character realised a popular, good looking colleague of his actually has a crush on him. However, he is afraid of abusing the special power he received but has used his powers wisely to help many of his friends.

Second couple's story felt a bit lackluster and not much emphasis on and somewhat rushed.

One of the sweetest couples !

The plot is so amazing and the duration is perfect to watch when you just wanna relax and feel joy
No evil characters or misunderstanding, just pure fluff , the couple's chemistry is on a different level.
So please give it a try !
It's one of the best Japanese Bls in my opinion
The side characters are also well depicted , their parts are not just to be there but are given important roles and are so lovable
Adachi is adorable.
It's my first time writing a review so I'm just typing my thoughts are here so nevermind me
I had been avoiding this show for a long time thinking it's gonna be boring or lackluster
but watching it today was the best decision cuz it's far from boring , you can't just leave it after watching an episode
cuz most of the time I pause a show after it gets boring and then never seem to continue it but since it kept introducing many interesting concepts it kept me motivated .

Heart fluttering drama

-Overall review: From the moment my friend told me about this drama I knew that its plot was one of a kind. It sticks out as I haven’t heard of a drama with a plot like this one, and even if there are any other romantic dramas that consist of mind-reading, I bet this one would still manage to stand out among those.
-Pace: it felt just right, not too rushed not too slow.
-Chemistry among the leads: it was BEAUTIFUL, definitely fit together on screen
- Conflict: amazing, there were no conflicts that felt forced for the sake of adding to the plot
- Character development: It was good! I also LOVED the side characters.

TL;DR: Highly recommend if you are looking for some lighthearted, heart fluttering, funny, romantic watch.

Amazing BL

Reasons to watch this BL.
1. The characters. Adachi and Kurosawa. The story is in a way told by Adachi, a 30 year old virgin. He works as an office worker and is a colleague of Kurosawa. He lives his days like many other people: wake up, go to work, work and then go home and sleep and repeat. This way he has lived until he turns 30 and finds out that the myth that you become a wizard when you are still a virgin at 30 is true. He can read minds by touching people and finds out that his colleague Kurosawa, who is the perfect man in everything that he does, is in love with him. The storytelling is really personal on Adachi's side. You hear Adachi's thoughts with everything he does and it makes you understand what kind of person he is and provides a lot of funny situations. In the emotional scenes that creates a bit more of a suspense. Kurosawa is also a character that looks like a person that you admire but want to admire from a distance. This changes when you found out more about him through Adachi reading his thoughts.

2. The lesson in this series. The mindreading is how the couple got together but in the end communication is really important in a relationship otherwise it is not going to work out. This is shown really well in this series. To put it bluntly, when Adachi is not a virgin anymore he will lose his mindreading abilities. How will the relationship survive if they don't communicate with each other? The series answers this question really well and I can see them as a couple that would be together for a long time.

3. The only little part that I was sad about was that there is no kiss scene in the series. It did make the series feel quite innocent. Kurosawa bought a pyjama set for Adachi because he thought that it would look good on him and Adachi's reactions are just really fun. The story always make it feel like: 'Oh now it is going to happen' but unfortunately it didn't. It doesn't take anything away from this series though. I would still watch it over and over and over when I need a series just to make me feel warm inside.

(Sorry if sometimes my sentences don't make sense to you. English is not my native language and my English writing is not as good as my reading and understanding of the language. )

GIVE ME A LOVE LIFE LIKE THIS!

This drama made me go back to watching japanese drama. I won't stop recommending this to others who are in need to feel loved and validated.

This is more than just a bl romance drama. They tackled issues that are not commonly being shown in dramas. I also think that this drama has one of the best cast line-up. Thanks to this drama for I discovered these actors that I now adore.

The directing and set are well made!! I've seen theories before related with how they were able to utilize the use of colors and symbolisms to make deeper meanings and relay certain messages. I also love how each episode end because it will make you feel like you need to watch the next episode ASAP. Overall I can say that this is my second favorite japanese drama so far.

tão fofos que nem ligo se não deu beijinho

você começa a assistir achando que vai ser só um clichê qualquer que vai se perder no meio de tantos outros bls, mas cherry magic é muito mais! todos os personagens e a história em si é desenvolvida lindamente e é impossível não se apegar. diversas vezes eu me pegava torcendo desesperadamente pelo adachi (akaso eiji), surtando e sentindo um carinho enorme por ele.
falo com convicção que é um dos únicos bls que consegue se sustentar sem uma única cena de beijo. ele te força a se contentar com mãos dadas e abraços, e o pior é que não é algo ruim... eu não mudaria nada!
vale muito a pena assistir, rende risadas muito gostosas e é um romance que te deixa bobo...

The sweetest, most wholesome, heart warming drama.

I really have no words to describe how this drama made me feel. To be honest, I come from a generation in which LGBTQ+ movies and dramas were very, VERY tragic. We either got killed, physically, verbally and mentally abused, sexually assaulted, abandoned, and a lot of other sad (and somewhat traumatizing) things that, at some point in my youth, made me feel quite scared of being myself. I was young not too long ago, you guys, and I want you to know those times were actually a lot closer than you think. Around seven or eight years ago. So, I would like you to imagine even just a little bit of the happiness this drama brought me.

It is fashion nowadays for Japanese dramas, anime and manga to have these very descriptive titles, and I find hilarious how spot on it was. I have said this before and I will keep saying it because they deserve the recognition: Japanese BL dramas have been a true delight lately. We have had way less BLs from Japan; however, these handful of stories have been able to surpass Thai BLs exponentially. They have been unique in their own way, creative and, most importantly, completely different from each other -- the last point is what Thai BLs lack the most, unfortunately. Still love them, though!

The story is very special. I don't think I have seen anything like this before. To be honest, the title pretty much says it all: a simple plot that blooms into a wholesome ending. I think the most successful thing about this series is how well established the personality of each character is. Even with those who happen to be similar, there's still specific traits that do not make them a copy of the other. Now, the story isn't as fascinating as "Fujoshi, Ukkari Gay ni Kokuru," but it still manages to captivate the audience with its heart warming scenes.

I know this drama is about homoerotic relationships, but I must mention how in love I am with the main female coworker. She is simply the COOLEST! I just love how down-to-earth and supportive she is. She deserves the best this world can offer.

Sis, I could not recommend this drama enough. If you are new to the genre and are looking for something short and sweet, this is the drama for you. If you are a BL veteran, you'll fall in love with the classic elements of boys love showcased in the story. Really, you should totally give it a try.

So cute, a must-watch

I read the synopsis of "Cherry Magic" and my jaw dropped. It's just right up my alley. If I could have 10 different shows with the same premise I would watch the hell out of all of them.
I did feel like it was slowing down in the middle, but I think I was just too hyped up by the plot and the first couple episodes and my expectations after that were too high to be met.
However, don't get me wrong, "Cherry Magic" is so good. Watch it now.
Both leads provide pretty stellar acting. An office setting for once, which is very fun and a nice change. It's really sweet and adorable, even hilarious at times. Just writing this review makes me want to do a rewatch to see Adachi's embarrassed face again. I also love the contrast between Kurosawa's reputation and how adorable he actually is.
Also, I think this must be the first show where I never skip the title sequence because the theme song is so nice.
