After reading all eighteen volumes of "Peach Girl", I was excited to read the sequal, "Peach Girl: Sae's Story". During the second half of "Peach Girl", I had grown to like Sae, so I had wanted to read something from her perspective. (I had also wanted to get a break from Momo.) I was not too disappointed. I felt that it was a bit short, though. "Sae's Story" was a pretty good sequal.
Story: Like its predecessor, "Sae's Story" was more of a chain of events rather than a thick plot. It mainly follows the love life of Sae, who, despite her good grades, gets held
back a year in high school due to skipping classes. We also get to learn more about Sae's past.
Art: The art is great. There is something about Miwa Ueda's art that I really like. The characters are drawn very nicely, and the cover art is great too. (I especially like the cover for volume two!)
Character: Like the art, the characters are also great. Momo and Kiley reappear, although they are mostly background characters. We are treated to a few new characters, such as Kanji, Sae's childhood friend and first love, and two of Sae's short lived boyfriends. I really liked Kanji.
Enjoyment/Overall: As I said before, I had enjoyed this manga. It is a good sequal to "Peach Girl". However, I wish it could have been longer though, because I would have liked to see more happen between Kanji and Sae. Ah well. Overall, it was very good. read more
