Peach Girl (Peach Girl: Super Pop Love Hurricane)

With her gorgeous, tan skin and long, bleached hair, former high school swim team member Momo Adachi seems like the kind of girl who could get any guy she wants. In reality, however, she is only in love with Kazuya "Toji" Toujigamori, a baseball player whom she fell for in junior high and who reportedly only likes pale-skinned girls. Despite her attempts to change her appearance, many of her jealous classmates have begun spreading rumors about her promiscuous and "easy to get with" personality. Momo's friend Sae Kashiwagi is always there to comfort her, but is secretly the source of the rumors about Momo as part of her own scheme to steal Toji. Further complicating things is Kairi Okayasu, a popular male student at Momo's high school who has publicly declared his love for her and is determined to date her.

Hoping to find love in a nearly impossible predicament, Momo must navigate complicated love triangles, back-stabbing friends, and her insecurities about her appearance to discover who she really is.

This series is a Spanish soap opera hit by a Japanizing beam. In highschool.

I'm the type of person who prefers their romantic story to be more linear, where I'm aware of the conclusion (roughly ofc), so I'm watching for the journey that leads to it. That being said, as much as I hate to admit it, this series intrigued me so much I ended up binge watching it. Is it worth it? Well, up until the last episode, I was ready to say yes and rate this one a strong-ish 9.

This story revolves around a love triangle, more or less constant back-and-forths of feelings between ...

Mixed Feelings

I haven't thought much about this anime much in the few years since I've seen it, but Sae is forever burned into my memory as the embodiment of narcissism and nazar. She is a full-on hater. Sometimes when I wonder if I have trust issues, I think of Sae. Momo had active ops praying for her downfall. Her naivete toward Sae's true nature led to recurring pain. This show helps me feel at peace with losing "friends" who are jealous of your success, imitate you, pretend to care so much about you, all while seeking to crush you. If this review seems overdramatic, that's because ...

I first found out about Peach girl through its manga, when it was licensed in my country in the very beginning of the 2000s. Years later, I found out there was an anime adaptation, but I postponed watching it because I wanted to reread the manga and experience it alongside the anime.

That was a MISTAKE. Comparing both of them at the same(ish) time only made the anime’s flaws WORSE.

The original manga has its problems (which I’ll discuss when I write my manga review), but the anime’s far surpasses those!

Almost nothing about the anime is worth:

– not the animation;
Which is ugly, broken, lazy, not at all ... like Miwa Ueda’s cute art style. Many animations from the early/mid 2000’s were kind of like that, but this just looks waaaay worse than what you’d usually see. The result of this animation looks like a bunch of college kids who just learned how to animate took a dive into their very first official job.

I don’t know any other anime made by Studio Comet – I think I’ve never watched anything by this studio – but I sure hope that they have improved. Otherwise, I won’t be watching any more of their stuff.

– not the music;
Boring and forgettable, neither the opening nor the ending were entertaining enough. I just skipped to the episode all the time.

– not the adaptation changes;
Yes, there ARE adaptation changes. Tons of it!!! They try to tame the story a lot, but how do you tame a story that was originally intended to be a bit risqué? Sex is a big part of this story (there are no sex scenes per say, but it's still important for the development of some characters/some relationships/the story itself), if you try to censor that because there might be kids watching, it will feel like a botched up version of the original work.

I felt that those changes were pointless and all they did was make me dislike this anime adaptation more and more.

Now, I may be sounding way too harsh so I will say two of the things that I actually liked about it:

– The VAs;
Everyone did a great job to portray these characters. Even though I read the manga in portuguese (and later in english), I could definitely match the anime’s voice actors with the voices I had given them myself. Sae sounded very sae-ish, Kairi was super kairi-ish, Momo sounded very fine and Toji was… well, Toji. I’m not a big fan of Toji lol

– The fact that this is a COMPLETE adaptation:
This caught me completely off guard, seeing as most anime adapted from a source (be it manga, light novel, visual novel, etc) have no “proper” ending or they make their own ending. In Peach Girl’s case, while the adaptation was poorly made, it was indeed a complete adaptation. With many changes, but the ending (and most of the important parts) were still the same!!

Even so, I still think watching this anime was a huge waste of time. If you want to experience Peach Girl, I strongly recommend for you to only read the manga.
