1) CHERRY MAGIC (episode 2) IS SO GOOD, I HAVE TO COVER MY MOUTH AND KEEP MY MEEPS FROM BEING TOO LOUD

2) GOD, TAYNEW! New is SMASHING THIS.

3) The wonderful @so-much-yet-to-learn and I had a discussion a couple months ago about the stylistic and rumored decisions to not have Kurosawa and Adachi (Machida Keita and Akaso Eiji) kiss in the Japanese Cherry Magic adaptation. The rumors (only seen online and not at all confirmed with primary sources) were that Machida's and Adachi's agencies were not supportive of the two having an on-screen smooch. We also considered the public vs. private taboos of public displays of affection in Japanese society and art, which differ from those in other Asian countries (like Thailand).

It's not known if the two actors felt differently about not kissing. At least Machida's agency, Gekidan Exile/Exile Tribe, has provided quite the number of actors in other Japanese BLs who have acted out many more deeds on screen, from Candy Color Paradox to Tokyo in April Is..., and more.

But I think part of the campy gloriousness of the Japanese Cherry Magic adaptation was, in fact, the lack of kissing, and the sensual acting around the indication of that kissing, from Kurosawa's eagerness and his constant struggle to control his emotions, to Adachi's discomfort-to-acceptance-and-happiness journey. There was tremendous communication in their body and verbal language that got them to their happy ending in the series, and to not have the actual kiss was, for me, dramatically satisfying for how that decision was supported through the excellent acting and the painstaking details of the show.

So, for so many of us, as we learned that TayNew would take up this mantle in Thailand last year, we were like -- alright, NOW we are going to get the kisses, right?

And at least for now, we haven't, which makes me wonder a bit. We saw Kurosawa's lips touch Adachi's forehead in Japan,

and Karan's lips were hidden by Achi's fluffy bangs in Thailand.

Does New need some texturizing, or was this on purpose? (I'm CACKLING, poor Tay, look at that hair in his FACE, omg.)

If this was a stylistic nod to Japan? Then... well done, because at least I noticed it, and kinda loved it. We know (WE KNOWWWW, heh heh, thank you, Kiss Me Again and Dark Blue Kiss) what TayNew are capable of, and I just loved this little moment of subtlety here in Cherry Magic, because we don't actually know what we're going to get later this series.

Because I am a fucking simp for all things Cherry Magic, I also noted the slight changes in how Karan approached Achi on the rooftop later that night, as compared to Kurodachi. Honestly, I am SO ENJOYING these different approaches, and only note these simply by way of how I'm loving Machida's acting versus that of Tay.

Kurosawa on the rooftop was a ball of NERVES, man.

Whereas it almost seemed like Tay's Karan was silently joyful, with smiles playing at the edges of his lips, to be so close to Achi and having this conversation about the dinner game.

These are NOT the greatest screenshots, but if I could gif, I would try to capture how the corner's of Tay's mouth in that last screenshot just uplifted slightly. This wasn't a moment of shock and nerves; this was a moment of OMG OMG OMG EEEEEE THIS IS MY TIMEEEEE.

(EDITING TO ADD: I’m such a dunce! I should have known the gif makers were already on this — and the gorgeous deity @liyazaki captured Tay’s mouf perfectly. That giddiness in the last gif!)

And in their acting? I love BOTH APPROACHES so much. Because both approaches are well within the emotional range of the moment that we're experiencing with them.

We're departing from the Japanese dorama next week in content, and I cannot wait to see where we go. GMMTV gave us some holiday gifts in Last Twilight and Cherry Magic airing on Fridays and Saturdays, no?

1) STILL SO GOOD! CHERRY MAGIC (episode 4) IS STILL SO GOOD!

2) Hot damn, more New in short-sleeved button-ups? Humina.

3) Okay, I didn’t realize this about my love for Cherry Magic Japan and What Did You Eat Yesterday?, but I haven’t reflected much on the impact of high-level comedic internal monologues on BLs, and how they offer such hilarious breaks to the sometimes-usual pace of romance development. I am LOVING what the CMT cast is doing with the monologues; I’m especially enjoying Junior Panachai as Jinta — he doesn’t carry quite, like, the age impact as the original Tsuge, but he’s got all of Tsuge’s manic messiness, which I’m obsessed with. I was CACKLING during this episode.

4) Dude, Tay. Tay is like, taking the influence of Kurosawa and adding a dash of powdered adrenaline. Spicy! Less campy than Machida Keita’s Kurosawa, but again, these monologues help to add back the comedic bit that might go awash in the expected GMMTV sensual simmering.

5) And I like that New’s Achi isn’t holding back either from his sensual wonderings. He’s letting his eyes and body language communicate Achi’s ponderings — Achi isn’t as physically hyper and reactive as Adachi in terms of the SURPRISE of it all, but New is really letting Achi consider every aspect of what’s happening with his feelings. I like that we get to know a touch earlier than in CMJ about where we think Achi’s heart is heading.

6) I craaaaacked up at the CLEAR OBVIOUSNESS of Pai’s sao wai status, while Fujisaki’s fujoshi status in her Japanese office was a touch more subtle. THE WALLPAPER, girl, lmao. (Even Toyota Yuu, the mangaka of the original Cherry Magic manga, commented on how cute Pai was, 🤣🤣😭😭)

7) Songkran was really lovely to see, in all of its peaceful and hectic ways — I like that the show continues to emphasize a very distinct Thai vibe to this adaptation, including seeing Achi’s house up close.

I missed seeing Karan in a dreamy silk robe with the big sister reveal, but alas, ya can’t ask for everything!
