I'm around thirty and finally in love.

"Around 30 dakedo, Hatsukoi desu." or "I'm Around 30, but This Is My First Love" offered mildly intriguing content and premise for a romance manga. Keeping in mind that the overarching theme is comedy, the more lighthearted elements, although overblown and frequent, at that, strictly commits the manga to exploring innocent love. The only missing element that could have been improved upon was adding any semblance of conflict; often times the manga is repetitive in scope and the reader becomes easily dragged along by mundanities it settles into. Moreover, this idea can also be applied to some of the characters at times. The manga doesenough to keep readers entertained but really never takes initiative to explore anything outside of its comfort zone. Albeit, the characters and their intentions are pure and expressed with the logic, common courtesy, and emotional honesty people in actual relationships often come to realize. Recommendations for this manga are better suited for hardcore SoL readers or anyone willing to find solid enjoyment from a slowly paced development that rewards readers for their patience. Overall, the manga played its expectations safe and its family-friendly material safer. 7/10

After roaming, swimming, diving to all these sea of manga, I finally found this gem. The gem that somehow can see what's the future it's like for me if I don't do this thing soon. Story : 7/10 The premise of the story is about 2 inexperienced adult who get set up by an angel (their friend) for a date and hits off after all the wholesome awkwardness in their first meet. Pretty decent and cute for a romance story and recommended for anyone who like something light and sweet. Art : 8/10 Pretty cute, I like it. They didn't draw it like the typicalromance manga and I'm glad no one here has oversized organs (If you know what I mean). Character : 7/10 I want to report this because I'm in this manga and I don't like it. Jokes aside, assuming this manga also has SoL in their genre then this one is pretty normal for the character. There are no big difference between each characters, so pretty much so-so Overall : Recommended for anyone who like something light and sweet and definitely for someone who like romance. Edit : Since I've just finish this manga, after all that wholesome relatable cutely story... The ending is a bit anti-climatic.. This manga can be better if the author wrote the ending a bit better. There's no closure or whatsoever even we know how the story gonna end..
