About the movie: Cherry and Virgin

Cherry and Virgin

Ryo, a creator of adult erotic manga, and Emi, a creator of homoerotic romance manga for young women, are scared to death of the opposite sex and of sex in general. They meet on a dating app and embark on an awkward, nervous romance, grappling with their own anxieties, depression, and limitations, as well as each other’s, both as people and as artists. Will they finally lose their virginity?! An acclaimed, original, and brilliant anime, crafted through a rich and dynamic mix of manga styles—a smart, sexy romantic comedy and a meta-cinematic love letter to anime.
