It's complicated: A thirty-year-old virgin gets more than he bargained for when his newfound magical power reveals he's the object of his male coworker's affections!
Businessman Adachi turned thirty a virgin, and now he's a wizard who can read the mind of anyone he touches...which is how he learned that his handsome coworker Kurosawa was in love with him! Inexperienced Adachi was initially bewildered by Kurosawa's intense feelings, but after being exposed to Kurosawa's genuine affection, Adachi finds Kurosawa on his mind a lot more often than he'd care to admit these days! Will the upcoming staff business trip turn into a trip for two for Kurosawa and Adachi?!

If Cherry Magic has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Cherry Magic has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Cherry Magic has only one fan then that is me. If Cherry Magic has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Cherry Magic, then I am against the world.

Really cute and pulls at one's hearstrigs, but at the same time, I keep wondering about my newly discovered taste in books (considering the title) 😂😂😂🫡🤷🏻♀️🙈

I couldn't find my copy of volume 1 and don't remember exactly what happened at the end, but I think Kurosawa kissed Adachi's forehead and Adachi said he didn't mind, but they didn't go any further than that. Now Adachi is stressing over his interactions with Kurosawa. Kurosawa's behavior seems perfectly normal, but Adachi's telepathy (which Kurosawa still doesn't know about) tells him that Kurosawa is definitely still hoping they can become a couple. Resistance isn't going to be easy - Kurosawa's hot, romantically experienced (if only with women rather than men), great at everything, and a skillful negotiator.
And so the two of them end up on a staff trip at a hot spring resort with the rest of their coworkers, giving Kurosawa lots of opportunities to spend time with Adachi. Unfortunately, the trip only underscores for Adachi just how popular Kurosawa is. All the women at work want to spend time with him. Why is someone like that at all interested in a depressing and thoroughly forgettable guy like him? Adachi's telepathy may give him the ability to peek at other people's thoughts, but it doesn't let him truly understand their hearts.
Okay, series with the cringe-y title and annoying premise, you have won me over. I'll continue reading. This volume was super cute and sweet, even though I, like Adachi, couldn't help but wonder why Kurosawa fell for him in particular. I mean, yes, he saw Adachi's quiet little acts of kindness and was moved, but surely he'd seen other people do similar things?
One thing I loved about this volume was the way it played around with perspective. Although Adachi has the ability to read the mind of anyone he touches (or who's in the water with him, since apparently water conducts thoughts as well - try not to overthink the telepathy aspects, I guess), that doesn't really mean he understands them, and that was really apparent in this volume. Readers could tell that Kurosawa was jealous of Rokkaku and Fujisaki and fretting over what he viewed as Adachi's moments of closeness with them, but Adachi's completely missed those signs. He knew that Fujisaki preferred Kurosawa to him and figured that was obvious, and Rokkaku didn't even enter his mind as someone who might even vaguely be interested in him.The author took it a step further later by including a couple chapters from Kurosawa's perspective. It was both hilarious and bittersweet.
The second half of the volume introduced another jealousy storyline, after Adachi spotted Kurosawa with a pretty woman. Thankfully that was resolved in this volume, although the resolution was contrived enough to make me wonder what Kurosawa said to her and whether there was some deliberate matchmaking going on.
My favorite moments in this volume: Kurosawa neatly shooing Rokkaku away; Adachi finally realizing some of what Kurosawa had been going through during the staff trip; Kurosawa getting super excited about his glimpse of Adachi's belly (and Adachi vowing to work on his abs more, even so); and pretty much anytime Adachi and Kurosawa got a chance to talk a bit in private.
So yeah, I'm cautiously keeping this on my To Buy list, at least for a little while. Which doesn't really help me with my goal to free up shelf space, but oh well. The series is funny, sweet, and although Kurosawa could end up becoming overbearing, for now he's trying really hard not to come on too strong. Volume 1 did have some moments that made me uncomfortable, but Volume 2 was better in that regard, so I guess I'll find out how Volume 3 works for me.
The "Parental Advisory - Explicit Content" stamp on the cover still makes no sense to me. There is absolutely no explicit content in this or the first volume. While it's true that Square Enix Manga may just be playing it safe and preemptively marking the series this way in preparation for a future more explicit volumes, the longer this series goes on without any explicit content, the more annoyed this stamp is going to make me. After a certain point, it starts to look like the publisher has just decided that two guys being interested in each other is automatically explicit content, and that's not okay.
Extras:
A page of full-color artwork at the beginning (set up to look like Kurosawa thinking of a paper doll version of Adachi, with a few outfit changes); a short bonus chapter featuring Tsuge, Adachi's romance novelist friend who also developed telepathy at age 30 due to his virginity, and his delivery guy crush; a couple pages of translation notes; and a fairly lengthy preview of the next volume, featuring an amusing moment in which Kurosawa mentally punches his own self out after he finds himself attracted to a sick and feverish Adachi.
I'm not really interested in Tsuge and his crush - I'd rather have more Adachi and Kurosawa. I suspect that the series will switch over and focus more on Tsuge at some point, though, when the author runs out of steam on the primary romance between Adachi and Kurosawa.

I really love this already. I like the character so much and the story is pretty cute. Now I have to wait for the third volume to be released.

Interestingly, this volume wasn't really adapted into the TV show (except for the confrontation scene with the mean guys, but that happens in very different circumstances), and I wonder if it's because they weren't allowed to show half-naked guys! XD
I was slightly surprised that Kurosawa is not sure whether he's also physically attracted to Adachi! This makes me think he might be on the asexual spectrum too?
Also Kurosawa's sister plotting so he could take care of a sick Adachi - loved it! :D
Rep: aro-ace (?) mlm main characters, mlm side characters

This story was so cute and this volume just made me fall in love with it even more.
All the almost kisses are adorably frustrating. And Kurosawa being so considerate of Adachi despite his own wants makes this so different from a lot of BLs where guys just take what they want.
And now they are living together temporarily. Volume three is gonna be good.

I feel like with every new volume, it keeps getting better. This romance is the cutest and I had such a good time reading these first 4 volumes lmao.
Also!! It's so nice to get Kurosawa POV chapters too? To see inside his head and how he feels about Adichi <3 I'm!!!! The CUTEST I TELL YOU THE CUTEST

This is particularly fun now that the whole "virgin" angle has largely been swept aside in favor of the humor. I'm really not sure why it had an explicit warning label, though...I've read books marked "T" that were racier than this.

This series is just so cute and sweet and I had a really fun time comparing what has changed in the books to the show. I already know the basic outline of what is going to happen because I’ve watched the entire show but it’s still enjoyable for me to read because of the slight differences that can be found and because of how healthy and cute the main characters are together.
While watching the show and obviously while reading the book I knew from a mile away that the beautiful woman that Adachi was jealous of was just Kurosawa’s sister. It was fun to watch her ship their romance.
Looking forward to the next book, which I have already ordered from the library!
Favorite quote:
I wish my eyes came with a “camera” function.
I agree with Adachi that it’s wild Kurosawa can think such dirty things and keep a straight (pun intended) face.

Adachi is so Emo and Kurosawa is so smitten. I am still obsessed and this obsession is never going to end. 😍

This volume shows that although Adachi can read the minds of everyone he touches, he is far from understanding others. I like the idea that even if you can read minds, the best way to understand someone is always going to be to actually communicate with them.
I don't care too much for the secondary couple, tbh. I don't see the appeal, so I'm crossing my fingers that they'll continue to be barely mentioned in other volumes, is that mean? oops.

This is just really cute, but the angst might actually kill me. If I have to wait 5 more books for them to even kiss, I may actually die. It’s a slow and painful death, but someone has to do it.

Oh, how could I have forgotten about Rokkaku and Fujisaki? They are absolutely bizarre supporting characters in the show and it's good to see they're eased into the plot here, although Rokkaku's spectacularly bad timing and lack of awareness is still proudly on display. Poor Kurosawa; that dude is not competition, just a kiddo.
This was a fun volume to see in terms of how different the show became--for one thing, there's a company trip involving a nude spa that is here that most certainly wasn't presented like that in the adaptation for obvious reasons. But the beats are still there. I loved the scene of Adachi coming to Fujisaki's rescue and then Kurosawa coming to his, and I felt like the introduction of the sister was less shoehorned here. All in all, I liked this even better than volume one and look forward to volume three--but if you weren't caught up in the first volume, I don't think this is going to get any better for you.

While I enjoyed the first volume more, this one was still so good! I loved seeing these characters again, and watch them interact. Adachi has some baggage he’s carrying due to his lack of a romantic history. And it was sweet to see that scene where he mentions it to Kurosawa. Kurosawa has the perfect response!
It was also nice to see Adachi as he comes to terms with his feelings. He notices that he’s thinking about Kurosawa a lot, and decides to investigate that. I love that he didn’t really steal away from it, he really thought about it. They just seem so perfect for each other, I can’t wait to see what the next volume holds.

One of my friends introduced me to Cherry Magic. She was watching the drama adaptation... and she might have gotten addicted lol. Even in class she was bragging how good the story was. And so I did intensive research and realized there is a manga. I don’t rad Japanese manga because they are black and white and I can’t read from right to left. The only exception is was Maid Sama. Anyways my conscience won’t let me watch the movie before reading , so here I am already having read 2 volumes . Very funny and but not much drama. And I totally like this type ><

Company excursions can be a social minefield and Adachi and Kurosawa definitely have to navigate past some female employees who are very determined in their advances towards Kurosawa. It is very sweet that he never wavers in his interest and a little sad that these ladies are unable to read the room.
When Adachi caughts a cold and stays home from work, Kurosawa shows his nurturing side and they are both manoeuvred into living together by his pushy, older sister. She is annoying but her plans do allow for possibilities moving forward ...

May 31, 2025I have a really bad headache and I don't know what to write as a review. But if you wanna know how I feel, I own a copy of this volume and got it signed by the voice actor who plays Adachi in the anime's English dub (he was at a con in my area). He noticed I was holding a Kurosawa plushie. Being nervous and so extremely awkward, I whipped out the plushies of Adachi and Kurosawa in their (spoiler) wedding outfits that I bought at the con and showed him the magnets that allows the plushies to hold hands. His response "aw, you're cute" in the gayest voice you've ever heard. It was cool.
All that's to say, I love this series

Okay, I'm officially obsessed with this series. I know this is only volume 2, but sometimes I just know when I'm going to devour a series and this volume is it for me.
Still not the biggest fan of the artwork, but I love these two characters and the hilarious thoughts and commentary. I also love this idea of a character who isn't popular being romanced by another character that everyone else wants. I love this and need more!!
Happy reading!

5 sao. Truyện hay, dễ thương, quắn quéo các kiểu đồ.
Chương ở chỗ onsen tắm suối nước nóng là không có trên phim, chắ c cũng tại anh Keita gầy quá, với cả là cho vô thì chắc cũng phải dán nhãn 18+ chứ không vừa :>. Qua tập này mới thấy Kurosawa nghị lực như thế nào, chứ tâm tình anh này đen tối vãi luôn.

while this is cute it is a step backwards from book 1 in the terms of the relationship. We were up to kissing and now there's none of that, which really ticks me off that the publisher puts a parent advisory sticker on it just because there's LGBT. So that's fucked up. It is cute but I find myself debating about getting vol 3.

¡Me encanta!
Leer el manga me hace descubrir momentos que en las series.
1. La versión Japonesa (obvio)
2. La versión Tailandés (en emisión 😍)
Son omitida o modificadas pero yo diría que la escencia está presente y eso es lo realmente importante.

Every time I read a Kurosawa chapter I'm close to tears, because I get how it feels to love someone who only sees you as a friend, and it's tough.
