The Boys’ Love manga inspired a live-action TV drama that ran on TV Tokyo from October 9, 2020 to December 24, 2020. It also inspired a drama CD adaptation in 2019 and a Chinese radio drama in 2022.
A live-action film that serves as a sequel to the TV drama was screened in Japanese theaters on April 8, 2022. Toyota donated a portion of the adaptation rights fee for the film to Marriage for All Japan — an organization advocating for same-sex marriage rights in Japan.
Crunchyroll is currently streaming Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!, describing the synopsis as:

How will Adachi respond to overhearing these affectionate thoughts?
