He's never looked at me in the eye and complimented me before. It's not fair. I'm handier than him, and I'm not a playboy, and I'm nice. I'm the only one he should be looking at. - 30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni Nareru Rashii - Episode 5

Don't you think that Cherry Magic anime rushed its ending? I haven't finished reading the manga and I've only watched the live action, but at least in the anime we got to see Adachi and Kurosawa getting married, both wearing rings and living together 🎊(unlike Haruki and Akihiko from Given. Yes I had to bring them up)

It doesn't matter if I can't say it eloquently. I just have to tell him. Your eyelashes are really long, Kurosawa. I'd thought you were handsome since I started working here, but I'm amazed that I find you even more handsome now. It's cool that you don't let on how much research you do or how hard you work for your job. I've never heard you speak poorly of anyone, either. Also, even though you're normally calm, your thoughts are so excited. I thought you were a perfect person, but surprisingly, your expressions show on your face, and you have a narrow-minded and jealous streak. And sometimes, when you're trying hard to act cool, you end up looking lame instead. I think it's cute. - 30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni Nareru Rashii - Episode 11

Cherry Magic / 30-sai made Doutei dato Mahoutsukai ni nareru rashii Episode 1
Overall Score so far: 8/10
Mainly because Kiyoshi Adachi knows he is in a BL, and is very aware of what might happen to him, and the short hand title is fucking hilarious. Cherry Magic. Cherri Maho. Man I love Japanese.
Also GOOD CROWS ABOVE THIS ANIME IS GENRE-SAVVY. It knows exactly what it's doing, and feels like it's going to deliver what it promises. A wholesome lovey dovey little story.
The whole 1st episode almost feels self contained in a way that will definitely let you know if this show is for you or not. Capybara pointed out that this seems to be a common recent trend with anime for their first episodes. We saw it in Dr. Elise, Frieren, and Dungeon Meshi kind of felt that way too.
My first impression that might not make sense to some people is that this is a toned down Doppo and Hifumi from Matenrou/Hypnosis Mic.
Also, WE'VE GOT TWO POWERHOUSE VOICE ACTORS HERE!!
Adachi is being voiced by the lovely deadpan of Kobayashi, Chiaki - His other roles I know being Langa from SK∞, Gabimaru!! (my beloved) from Jigokuraku/Hell's Paradise, and Mash!! from MASHLE, also this season! I haven't seen Vinland Saga yet, but other might know him as Askeladd! Kobayashi-san has a very particular voice that doesn't fluctuate much, but he knows when to show emotion that gives a good impact. Quote from Capybara - "They picked this guy for his dead pan, but can he emote? Oh, he's Langa from sk8, oh yeah, he can emote."
Kurosawa is voiced by Suzuki, Ryouta a super memorable voice! - Ryusui from Dr. Stone, Yuu ishikami from Kaguya Sama, BISCO!!! FROM SABIKU BISCO!!! That is some RANGE right there! Loud and Prideful, Quiet and Dark, and then a Screamy Boy. This is a younger VA who has had some great starting roles, and has already become a memorable and impactful voice, making this a very good match up!
Anyways, nerding out about voice actors aside, Episode 1 spoilers below!
At first it seems like we're going to get the standard tropes that come with the BL(Boys Love)/Yaoi Genre...
Adachi is ON HIS GUARD and KNOWS THE TROPES.
But the show immediately spins those very same tropes on their head! It's great!! It's been so long since I watched a BL, and despite knowing that the genre in manga form has mostly moved away from a lot of the dub-con tropes (unless you're looking for it of course), it's lovely to see something that actually feels like a proper and semi-realistic romance.
Kurosawa seems like a super sweet dude who's ALSO aware this is a BL, but also that gay guys don't just exist everywhere and that the chance of his crush returning his affection is low.
But. There is no way Adachi is straight. He's absolutely either bi, and/or gay + somewhere on the ace-spec (demi?) depending on how things play out from here.
I bet Adachi stumbled into reading a BL manga (or two or three or) at some point in his younger years, and it had more of an impact on his psyche than he remembers, lmao.
His fascination with knowing Kurosawa has a crush on him is adorable, and he's absolute confusion at stumbling across the other man's fantasies is hilarious.
The tension between them is beautiful when Adachi is pretending to sleep, and we all KNOW Kurosawa is thinking of his sleeping face and then playing it off as just grabbing his phone. I repeat, there is NO WAY Adachi is straight, lmao.
In response to this rhetorical question, No and Yes. If Adachi was the woman, saying yes would imply that she was aware she was being asked to have sex and giving consent (at least by Japanese standards I ASSUME? I've never been in this situation). And if Kurosawa was the woman, that is one very forward and direct lady who is absolutely Down To Fuck (Again, by Japanese standards afaik).
God, then they go out for yakiniku/Korean bbq the next day, and he finds himself enjoying the other man's company and wishing they could be friends, only to brush up again him and remember this man is in love with him. Adachi, you precious child, this is why you're so lovable. The immediate regret for taking the other man's feelings so lightly and not knowing what to do as he runs away is heart wrenching and OF COURSE THE EPISODE ENDS THERE.
It's a running theme that Adachi is worried about other's opinions and doesn't know how to rely on other, which tends to be a negative, but in this case, he's so conscientious of hurting Kurosawa by taking his feelings lightly. Even though he ends up hurting him anyways, I see this as a favorable take on the typical people-pleaser type character.
I'm not really looking to the implied trope of "Best Friend who also has a crush and claims to know him best" in the next episode, but since everything else has been subverted, I'm hoping that will get subverted too? Especially knowing that Best Friend-kun is in the secondary pairing from the PVs.
I WANT TO BINGE THIS. THIS IS GOING TO BE SO DAMN CUTE.
The HypMic Reference:
Adachi is a Toned Down Doppo, who is an over worked businessman at a black company who might as well be Canadian for how often he says sorry, but goes into Berserker mode and absolutely destroys his opponents when pushed too far or his partners are hurt, and is Hifumi's emotion support human.
Kurosawa is a super Toned Down Hifumi, who is the #1 host at a club in Shinjuku and has a split personality of the perfect princely boyfriend, and a charai/flashy and "it'll be fine lol" personality, who is basically a housewife for Doppo and is also Doppo's emotional support human.
There aren't THAT many connection points between the two, but still, I like the comparison, aha.
Anyways, My Hopes For This Anime, having NOT read the manga and not wanting spoilers, are that these two get together by half way through the season and then we get the "newly dating" stages of their relationship, and various mishaps that only serve to strengthen their relationship. They seem like a very good couple and it would be a waste for them to not get together.
If they don't get together until episode 12, I will be so blue balled that I will have to drop it if only to get the circulation in my brain back.
Hype for more!
ep2 ep3 ep4 ep5 ep6 <- these will eventually become links

Why is Cherry Magic so beloved by many?
This is gonna be a very long post because since this drama came out I couldn’t get it out of my head. It’s my comfort show, to which I always return. And I can confidently say I am not the only one. Even though the premise of this drama may seem weird or even off-putting, giving it a shot was one of my best decisions.
One of the first things I, like many other people, loved was the overall theme. As already mentioned, the synopsis of a 30-year-old man gaining mind-reading powers because of him being a virgin and then the whole plot logically should be centered around that, is at least slightly weird. But the show’s theme is more like how these powers are actually being used and not just how they came to be. Communication and understanding others and their feelings play a huge role in this drama. It is shown repeatedly, that most of the time things are not as they seem. And I honestly love, how Adachi realizes this pretty early on. One of the early examples is the rooftop scene in episode 3. He notices how Kurosawa feels and tries to empathize with him and explain the situation from his perspective.
Adachi explains his situation, and when it still looks like Kurosawa didn’t understand what was he trying to say, he tries to explain it again and differently.
From then onwards it s a common thing in this series. Adachi offers to Fujisaki he’ll talk to her mother, Tsuge learns through new experiences how to communicate his feelings for Minato and there are many more examples.
Another strong aspect of this show is the characters. Starting with the protagonist, it wasn’t difficult to relate to Adachi. Going day by day through life, being anxious, and having problems with setting up boundaries and communicating your feelings and needs. I also loved how Akaso Eiji portrayed Adachi’s mannerisms. The way he usually rubs his hands, when he’s nervous, or his panicked ironic smile in ridiculous situations, when he has no idea, how he actually got himself in those in the first place. Adachi is also a character, which is easy to root for. He’s a good person. Every time he makes the wrong assumption about someone, he feels bad, and tries to do better. (We see many times, when Adachi goes to Kurosawa’s place, or the aftermath of the competition)
He always thinks of others, tries to overcome his anxiety, and has a strong moral backbone. He’s actively choosing to battle his flaws.
I loved how the theme of nothing being like it seems was repeatedly used when it came to Kurosawa. He seemed like the perfect salesman, the perfect man, or at least that was Adachi’s assumption. He has his own issues and is his own person. Kurosawa gets jealous, frustrated (not visibly to others) because both himself and the others in the series, and it is shown he too is a complicated individual with strong moral compass.
I love how we go from “He’s blinding!” to the fact, that sometimes what we see is not necessarily the truth. What we, as the audience, see is a carefully crafted mask full of confidence, but that’s not really, who Kurosawa is. (It’s part of him, sure, but that’s only one of his many sides.) That’s why I loved the movie and the scenes in and after Adachi’s accident. It brought up a new aspect of the character and just as with Adachi, he’s a character, which is very likable.
The side characters are great as well. Fujisaki is supportive, yet does not come as overbearing. It was also refreshing to see aro/ace representation.
I loved how Rokkaku’s enthusiasm, and how on the other side we (through Adachi) see that he’s a surprisingly sensitive and caring person. The way he defended his friend, Minato? On one hand, I felt bad for Tsuge, on the other I was really glad Rokkaku spoke up.
I enjoyed watching Tsuge stumble, overcome his ‘running away from any complications’ attitude, and start to develop a healthy connection with Minato.
What made the most of the characters are definitely the actors. (For this part I’ll be only talking about the male leads because otherwise, this post will be way too long.) Those performances were amazing, and nothing felt out of place. Who stood out to me most was Akaso Eiji. As already mentioned his expressions and mannerism is just on point, and even after reading the manga I had problems imagining Adachi with a different face than Akaso Eiji’s. (Maybe that will change with the upcoming thai adaptation though.)
Keita Machida’s performance? Amazing. The way mood changed every single time when this man did ONE micro-expression. For example, the difference between various Kurosawa’s smiles was huge. Some of them were reserved for the people he was frustrated at, then a similar expression was used for business, and of course there were smiles only reserved for the people close to him. Looking back at the manga, I, personally, saw the panels come to life.
All in all, there are definitely more reasons, why this series (and the movie with the extras) brings such comfort to its fans. Is Cherry Magic perfect? Definitely no. Is this some cinematographic miracle? Not even close. But the themes are relatable, the characters are likable and overall it is enjoyable to watch.
