Magic Touch is a popular song by Kandimg Mi, a talented musician known for his unique blend of Caribbean and pop music. This catchy tune has been captivating audiences worldwide, with its infectious rhythm and irresistible lyrics. The song tells a story of love and romance, with Kandimg Mi expressing his desire to have a magical touch that can ignite the passion and intensity in a relationship. He yearns for the ability to bring a spark into his lover's life, to make them feel special and cherished. Magic Touch's lyrics are filled with vivid imagery, painting a picture of enchantment and desire. Kandimg Mi's melodic vocals effortlessly glide through the verses, accompanied by catchy beats and a vibrant instrumentation that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.
One other notable thing that I love is the flowery language. You don’t have just clouds in the evening, we get a description of the pink glimmer of the clouds passing in the sunset between night and day. Chocola doesn’t simply use rose petals for her magic potion, it’s nine sweet pink heart shaped rose petals. This is consistent through the series and gives it a lot of personality and it’s not something I’m used to seeing in a manga. A lot of the descriptions are related to food too which makes me crave for sweets… The initially dumbass Chocola also gets some depth when we see that her thoughts have similar ornate descriptions of the scenery.
I love how supportive they remain of each other, they always defend their friend when someone speaks ill of them, even Vanilla when she turns to the Ogres and resents Chocola. She also has great character development and grows from an impatient brat to a more mature witch, and the growth of her magic skills is very believable too.

Closing thoughts on Sugar Sugar Rune
Especially after so many repetitive magical girl stories I really appreciate how the story bothers to do different things. It starts with a “heart of the week” kind of structure where the heroines face magical and mundane issues in the human world, but towards the end we spend more and more time in the magic world and the plot turns to a fantasy adventure. Adults moving the politics in the background also makes it feel like the main girls aren’t the only thing that exists in this universe. The story flounders a bit towards the end (jumping to school drama after an epic adventure in the magical world sometimes feels jarring, my Hated Trope “Forgotten Childhood Friends” appears, the politics turns to just some random senate guys being greedy, Vanilla fixes everything during a timeskip) but on the whole the manga is still enjoyable.
In addition to the fun setting there’s also the unique mechanisms with how the magic works. The heroines compete on who will collect most crystallised emotions from the human world. This doesn’t work just by shooting a magic beam at people and instead they must manipulate their target to have the desired emotion. Which leads to good character development when the girls must learn how to be charismatic enough for tons of boys to have a crush on them. The heart crystals are also used as currency and energy source so they feel more like a part of the world and not just a random collectible that’s relevant in the one scene the characters get it.
The greatest thing is still the characters, or especially Chocola. I love how assertive and confident she is, and not in the “still reasonably cute and well-behaved for a girl” style. Truly one of the best magical girls out there, it’s very clear why she’s so popular in the story (or it takes a while in the human world). She also has great character development and grows from an impatient brat to a more mature witch, and the growth of her magic skills is very believable too. Vanilla is good too, she has the “shy girls gets confidence” plot but it’s well executed. It’s a shame though that her character arc sort of ends in the middle of the story when she turns good again and doesn’t have much to do after that.
Chocola and Vanilla’s relationship does a great job at exploring what a friendship between such different girls can be instead of just stopping at them being BFFs. Chocola is a great friend in that she is always ready to defend Vanilla, but also completely fails to see that not everyone can keep up with her and that she can be somewhat of a spotlight hog (would love to see more protagonists like this). And Vanilla is the nice amicable girl who is secretly bitter towards her more confident friend. Still their relationship doesn’t turn into angsty drama about how the whole friendship was a lie or something, and everything can be resolved with communication. I love how supportive they remain of each other, they always defend their friend when someone speaks ill of them, even Vanilla when she turns to the Ogres and resents Chocola.

The art is so beautiful as well, I love the memorable style and the backgrounds give the story a fairytale-like feel. The background characters also have very detailed designs, and even the men get fabulous outfits. Speaking of outfits, Sugar Sugar Rune has some of the best magical outfits ever and rivaled only by CLAMP in how fun and creative they are (CLAMP wins by sheer volume but I like the faces of the SSR characters way more)
