Toyota Sensei has done something really lovely with this series. It has all the best BL tropes that fujoshi are here for (we are all Fujisaki-san and we know it), with the tall dashing manly Seme-type character and the awkward cute innocent Uke-type character. And there's magic and mind-reading and that is all, just MWAH, so fun. But then the author allows reality to bloom in this setting: the perfect-seeming Tall Guy is an insecure effeminate softy. The virginal black haired short guy is practical and confident.
The realities of coming out with your queer relationship to family and friends and work-- it's handled gently here, with minimum resistance or disgust from the people around them, but it's still handled. That's pretty uncommon in the genre, where much Japanese BL kind of ignores the realities of the LGBT community in Japan. It's rare to even have characters identify as gay or bi. (Notable exceptions: "What did You Eat Yesterday" and "Nekoyashiki kun desires to be recognized" and "His") and far more common for bland colorblind-type messages (why does it matter who i fall in love with, love is love).
In this volume, we see Kurosawa and Adachi struggling to find housing that will allow same-sex couples or a venue for a wedding ceremony that is LGBT inclusive. Once they reach out to friends and connect with other queer people with good advice, they are able to make progress.
And then they have a WEDDING!!!!
OH my poor swooning heart. What a treat.
Anyway, Cherry Magic is in every way flawless and perfect and the only problem with it is that each volume is not 800 pages long. I'd read about them doing literally nothing and it would be like a deep tissue massage for my soul.
In the immortal words of Fujisaki-san: Kuro-Ada Kuro-Ada KISS KISS KISS!!!
