CHERRY AND VIRGIN
“A nervous romance animation.”
Erotic manga artist Ryo knows a lot about drawing sex, but when it comes to real life, he hasn't had much luck. Ami, a talented commercial illustrator who draws "boys' love" manga on the side, is in much the same predicament. The two cynical, 30-ish virgins have all but given up on romance, until they connect through a dating app and share a tentatively promising first date.
