This is an over-the-top romance manga. The gimmick of this romcom is that the female lead has sanpaku eyes. I would change the genres and themes slightly; I would remove "Subtext Romance" and "Comedy" and add "Romance" and possibly "Iyashikei." This is the second work of mangaka Sorato Shunsuke. It's a quick and easy read.
The characters are the main focus of this story. In particular, the female lead (Mizuno Amane) and her first intimate relationship take center stage. The male lead's (Katou Mitsuhide) perspective is sometimes shown. Side characters are occasionally added to the chapters, but not always. The characters are one-dimensional and consistently cutesy.
...
Character archetypes aren't used in this manga; all characters, from what's known about them, don't follow a trend.
The plot is entirely focused on the romance between Mizuno and Katou. There are no side plots. Mizuno and Katou get equal screen time, although more inner thoughts from Mizuno are shown. There's no reliance on cliches. The formula this manga uses to progress the story is nothing new, but it feels natural and works well. For the most part, the characters are realistic, though real people as cutesy as these characters could be unsettling to some readers.
There is a lack of background and setting throughout the whole manga. This approach makes sense as the characters are the focus. Don't read this if you want world-building. This manga is for people who want to see characters, not live in another world. The depth of the characters is hidden, and you don't learn much about them throughout the manga. It's mostly just pure interactions between Mizuno and Katou.
Overall, this manga is for people who love cutesy stuff. There's fluff in every chapter. There's blushing in every chapter. It's a carefree read.
