Signed up to specially write a review for this deserving Series!//Long One//
Honestly how do I even begin? Yes, I have been a fan of BL/YAOI for over a year now and from Movies/Series to Manga/Novels I have watched and read every other one possible and while there were so many of them which became my favourite but this particular series right here...man it just has to be a magical one to be able to hook me up so bad on it right from the very first episode!
I am in no way trying to criticize any other BL series or the concept but honestly it was getting kind of repetitive for the same old College/Uni themed BL dramas following a smiliar plot line. You gotta give Japan the credits here for taking BL dramas on a whole new road and man what a wonderful road at that.
Even when we are only 3 episodes in, Cherry Magic has stolen my heart completely. The actors are just so good and their chemistry is evident right from their very first interaction. After just reading the synopsis I did feel that it was going to be a little cringy and cliché but I was so wrong. While the story line and some parts does have that immature (in a cute way) moments but they not being there would rather make the series loose it's essence. Also for some reason I highly believe that either the two leads share some similarities with their own personalities and their respective characters or it's just that they are two phenomenal actors. You can get a pretty good idea of what Kurosawa's personality is like right in the 15 minutes of the first episode, even when he is somewhat deemed as the 'Mr. Popular' the way his interactions are with his colleagues as well as with Adachi just let's you know he is that ideal personality every one dreams to date/be with...hats off to Machida for executing the role so flawlessly.
And then comes our Angel Adachi...gosh just three words here NEED TO PROTECT! His character is overflowing with adorableness, the poor boy was minding his own business when suddenly he is bestowed with the magic! He really is just too sweet in every episode and the way it's shown how he doesn't entirely dive in nor does he entirely retreat from the situation he is put in is so great because if they would have chosen either of the two then that would again somewhat follow the old school plot line. The dilemma is real and with the help of his magic he is trying his best to come to a decision.
Lastly, all I want to say is I have been someone who although loves to appreciate good talent wouldn't necessarily be so hooked on it to the point of gushing about it non-stop but I guess everything has it's firsts and Cheery Magic is my first time of fangirling on a series non-stop. I have never been so eagerly awaiting for the next episodes of any series but I just can't seem to wait for Kurosawa and Adachi to continue with getting to know each other and fall in love in the rest of the episodes. I can already feel my upcoming heart break when the final episode would be airedTT
Wow I wrote a damn essay! Well folks...y'all just need to go and watch and experience this amazing series for yourself!

Get ready for a Rollercoaster!
Watched it on someone's recommendation in the comment section for another series and while I am very happy to have found this masterpiece (because come'on let's be honest...this series can be the Saviour of the Thai BL dramas) I have this foreboding feeling in my heart that after the last episode airs I am going to go to bed with snot and tears.I was honestly awed after watching the very first episode and while the leads do need a little more experience in terms of portraying those little nooks and crannies of precise emotions but somehow the overall set environment, cinematography, music, storyline and most of all the genuineness of the actors absorbing you in their world makes up for it over and above. Honestly this is the first time I have seen such an amazing production with details towards each little aspect...I never thought a drama in the very first episode could give you the feeling of watching a wholesome movie.
This drama has the potential to become an escape from reality and make one truly experience the story.
I have rewatched the trailer for nearly 5 times now, to try and catch some hints and the overall feel of the series and unfortunately I feel that it will be heading towards a bittersweet ending (worst pain of all). So now all I can do is pray and hope that I am proven wrong & it's instead an happy ending.
There is another Series I am obsessed with currently & it overall follows a very bubbly, happy and adorable vibe while this series kind of almost contradicts those completely (TT) & to make it worse I can't seem to wait for neither of the two series's new episodes...ugggh how am I going to deal two drastically opposite emotions on every weekend now!?
