As always,take any icons with credit!

It was a tough decision to choose the pairing I wanted to do for this round but KuroDachi inspired me more at the moment.
Soooo when I first saw the info on this round,I was planning on a whole set of Gao Shi De and Zhou Shu Yi from We best love. BUUUUT!Then I watched Cherry Magic! And oh my goodness,did I find a Japanese BL drama with a normal,healthy relationship, pining and falling in love?!Plus office romance?! YES I DID!What a rare gem those are in the manga world and harder to find in dramas! I even read the manga but I ended up liking the drama more...say what?!

A bit about the drama:
So the story starts with Adachi who turns 30 and gets magical powers that lets him read the thoughts of anyone he touches.LOL! Turns out that the ace of the Sales department Kurosawa Yuichi has been in love with him for years. Lots of character development,feelings and fun ensues.It's such a fluffy drama with quite a bit of angst and some more angst(which I left out of my icon set) but eventual happy ending.I'm a sucker for those!

Some  of the textwork here are what Adachi hears through his powers when he comes in contact with Kurosawa,like in the 5th and 13th icons.

If you watch this drama and like it,come die with me over it,please?!

Aw I'm glad the extension was helpful! This set is spectacular, it looks like a ton of effort must have been put into this, with all those complex compositions and animation and TEXT!

First I gotta talk about the composition magic - I especially adore the blending in 9 (love the color combination and how the blend is combined with painty textures + text!), and in 17 - the pastelly color combo is suuuper pretty and I love the text and texture work, the stars add so much to the composition.

I applaud you for using this much animation, you used them very effectively and in a fun way! I especially like the ffects you added to 2, so fun, but they're all great and really feel like ~scenes. 19 especially looks like a really fun scene and is a gorgeous icon too with those bright pastel colors!

4 is adorable and I also love the soft coloring and text use in 6. 7 is completely gorgeous, looove the coloring and text use, and the texture use /lighting in 15 is great as well!
I freaking adore 18 - it has such a magical vibe with the starriness and the purples! Lovely soft contrast too.

Thnaks so much for entering, I'm glad you enjoye this round! :> And I'm sorry for commenting this late, it's been a super busy week.

OOHH!!Please don't feel bad about being 'late'. :) I know we're all busy.
AAHHHH!!I'm over the moon to hear you liking the composition and the animation in this set!Keeping animation within the limit while also having it smooth,not too fast took time to pull off and I definitely had fun with it!
