The official website for the television anime adaptation of Yū Toyota's Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (30-sai Dōtei da to Mahō Tsukai ni Nareru Rashii) manga revealed a new visual and the show's January 10 debut on Friday. The anime will air on TV Tokyo and BS TV Tokyo.
The anime will host an advanced screening of the first two episodes in Ikebukuro on December 3.
Yoshiko Okuda (Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits-) is directing the anime at Satelight.

Tomoki Hasegawa is composing the music.
Square Enix Manga & Books licensed the manga, and it describes the story:
Adachi, a thirty-year-old virgin, has developed the power to read people's minds by touching them. After a brush with his very handsome colleague, Adachi realizes he has a raging crush on none other than Adachi himself!
The manga began serialization on pixiv's Gangan pixiv service in 2018.
