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

Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (Japanese: 30歳まで童貞だと魔法使いになれるらしい) is a 2024 Japanese boys' love (BL) anime television series, the animated adaptation of Yuu Toyota's (豊田悠) manga, produced by the studio Satelight. Directed by Yoshiko Okuda, with character designs by Takahiro Kishida, series composition by Tomoko Konparu, and music by Tomoki Hasegawa, it aired on TV Tokyo and BS TV Tokyo from January to March 2024 across 12 episodes.

The anime keeps the franchise's beloved premise: Kiyoshi Adachi, a shy office worker who reaches 30 still a virgin and gains the power to hear people's thoughts by touch, and Yuichi Kurosawa, the popular colleague secretly in love with him. The voice cast is led by Chiaki Kobayashi as Adachi and Ryota Suzuki as Kurosawa, with Makoto Furukawa as Masato Tsuge, Gen Sato as Minato Wataya, Yusuke Shirai as Yuta Rokkaku, and Ami Koshimizu as Nozomi Fujisaki.

Bringing the manga's gentle art and warm humour to animation, the series retells Adachi and Kurosawa's slow-burn office romance alongside the side stories of their co-workers. The opening theme, "Hajimete wa Zenbu-kun ga Ii," is performed by Koe ni Naranai yo, while the leads Chiaki Kobayashi and Ryota Suzuki sing the ending theme, "Magical Love," in character.

Crunchyroll streamed the anime worldwide as it aired and also produced an English dub. A special edited compilation film followed in Japanese theatres in December 2024. Faithful and feel-good, the anime offers both longtime fans and newcomers a fresh way into the Cherry Magic! franchise.
