Peach Girl

“The portions of a man’s brain that control rational thinking crumbles like sand in the desert when faced with an attractive female.”

There’s always one anime out there that you will at some point compare some characters from other anime to. Be it because they’re the most frustrating you have seen, sweetest, or most delusional.

The story has it's good and it's bad. The situations start of as, “sure it can happen,” to, “seriously, again?” It’s repetition is what kills this one to the point of you wanting to poke it with a stick to make sure it's truly dead.

After the first few seconds where you ... witness a girl getting groped on the street because she more or less looks like she takes cash for it. She is introduced as, Momo. Our Momo, has a little dilemma, she has tanned skin she hates and orange bleached hair all because she is a swimmer. Our orange haired girl loves a boy, Touji (who according to her "sources" hates tans and bleached hair) and has a psychotic best friend with sociopath tendencies who makes her life as complicated as she possibly can. It doesn’t end there though, there’s also Kairi, the popular guy in school who adds him wisdom and pervertness to the show and gives us a few laughs in between, because he’s the only one that gives any sort of humor in this one. Talk about a tough load to carry.
I think the whole plot in this anime revolves around the fact that Momo is tanned and has bleached hair, so take that way and you’ve got nothing at all original. At all.

Momo is actually an ok lead girl, she stands up for herself and aside from her questionable taste in guy’s, I think she has potential. Though watching the back and forth she had going made me wonder if she felt like she was time traveling in her own life to try and change how things turned out. That’s a better story then she just couldn’t make up her mind. I think she got the short end of the stick seeing as she isn’t the only swimmer but she’s the only one with bleached hair and tanned skin.

Sae has serious self esteem issues. She is infuriating to watch and at some points I wish someone would beat her. Not to death of course because then they wouldn’t be able to beat her again. She is the worst friend anyone could ever have. Well maybe not the worst since she never actually killed anyone. Fine, worst shy of murder. “That filthy mouth of yours spills out venom like nobody’s business.” That's our Sae. But thanks to her Momo sees what type of people are actually around her.

Touji, oh Touji, it’s too bad you didn’t have a brain in that head of yours, you could have done great things. It’s not his fault though, he’s just a gullible, nice guy who believes anyone but his girlfriend. His role was horrible and anyone would have looked like an ignoramus on it, through it, around it. You get what I mean.

Kairi is the glass half full of the show, most of the time. He’s what make the last half more or less watchable. Guy with a questionable past and undefined future. He's the comfort and the pain but he's the only one that sees through Sae's facade. Making him the smartest person in a dumb class.

The animation was average to below average. The characters looks stiff and sometimes act that way too, very two dimensional. I found it hard to get into because the dudes look like chicks, but you get used to it and eventually move on. The sceneries aren't memorable and I have definitely seen better, just look at Clannad. Oh how I miss thee...
The soundtrack is below average, with the same music being repeated throughout various scenes in the episodes. The OP is catchy but even that loses it’s charm. The ED is much better, maybe because it’s less upbeat and more harmonized. The English voice adaptation makes Touji sound like he' high sometimes because of his inability to show emotion in his voice. That's harsh I know but still. Sae's voice if on for more than five minutes at a time will cause your ears to bleed. Hmm, they didn't put that in the label. Other voices were fitting and not too bland or out there.

Had the show been better I probably would have picked up the manga for it. My mind couldn’t take anymore Momo+Touji+Sae+Kairi idealistic drama.
Sometimes I think this one should have been called, “Lets Break Up So We Can Get Back Together?” I’m not exactly sure what kept me watching then. Or what drew me in to re-watch the ending years after. Maybe it's because in the end the right guy gets the girl, the guy you liked or wanted to get the girl all along. It’s not because of the (unoriginal) plot or character development, since most of them don’t grow and actually become selfish and immature as time passes. There's something that keeps you interested to see WTF will happen next. Either way, my rating from back then and the rating now are much different, after I have watched many more anime.

Oh Momo, when will you learn.

Oh gosh. so many switches of the girl protagonist between the two guys >.< That was horrible. Every episode I just kept wondering How is it darn allowed for the girl to switch her love interest every time she gets hurt and the first one who comes to sooth her broken heart suddenly becomes her love interest !?!?!

Story[3/10]: I was very displeased with how the characters especially the girl protagonist acts. She has be shown to have a tanned skin due to her beeing a swim team member in the past. Come on !! They could have shown some competitions of swimming. Her achievements in ... the field, and how she couped up in adjusting in society somehow despite her skin colour. But NO. Nothing of that sort. Its just girl likes guy. He likes her back. But there's her so called friend there always to ruin her life (So darn hated her in the show.) They break up somehow. There's another guy who also kinda likes her. Then she starts liking him too. But he has another true love pfffffff. My eyes were rolling cause of all the pointless scenes. Jeez *sigh*

Art[6/10]: Not the best of art but its watchable. Not too much of background scenery.

Sound[6/10]: Voices were good for all characters. The openeing is kinds fun to listen to.

Character[4/10]: All fail. Indecisiveness, Weakness, Dumbness, its all there.

Enjoyment[4/10]: The romantic moments between the characters were shown fairly not in some darn ecchi partly hentai manner in which most series now a days have started to show. That's about the only thing I was satisfied with.

Overall[6/10]: All in all really disappointing storywise. But if you want to pass time try it out.

Lol. This isn't that good of an anime. It's got a pretty poor story and it's so dramatic and unreal it's almost hard to watch at times. Characters are weird and spazzy, manipulative, needy, and just not written well. Spoilers entailed.

The female characters, including the heroine, are all very obsessive and crazy. Honestly, for a high school girl, Sai is pretty much the Hitler of this genre and goes as far as to get Momo almost raped just so she can be "the best girl" and despite this, they actually come out on friendly terms in the end despite Sai blackmailing Momo's boyfriend, getting her ... "boyfriend" to rape Momo, managing to turn the entire school on her, etc. It's just so wild it's entertaining.

Honestly, if you want to sit down and watch something extremely stupid, dramatic and all-over-the place, Peach Girl is the anime to watch. It's pretty much a soap opera. But instead of the mafia or something, you get insane high school girls. It's more funny for this than anything.

WARNING: Review will contain spoilers

This is by far the most stressful anime I have ever watched. I honestly considered dropping it due to how stressed out i'd get while watching it. The only reason i didn't drop it was bc of how captivating it was, now this does not mean it was good. There was just so much stupid drama going on i couldn't help but want to watch more; i needed to know what happened.
I had also thought that this was the anime i'd heard about when i was younger. Basically, I thought that Momo was going to get into a polyamorous relationship with ... both the main guy characters, and i thought it would be really interesting to actually see an anime do that. However, i was gravely mistaken, but hey! the opening showed all 3 of them being all lovey dovey together, so i just figured.

Story: The story was pretty cliche, i mean, you have a girl who's disliked bc she's different in some way, but omg guess what?? It just happens that all her love interests are actually really attracted to that trait. Wow omg never saw that coming. Although, some of the events that transpired were actually pretty dark/taboo compared to other romance animes, such as characters almost getting raped, characters getting beaten, character almost being tricked into shooting a porno, and a character getting pregnant. Generally those aren't things you'll see very often

Charaters: Meh the character were kind of a dime a dozen. No one was really all that unique, but you also have to consider when this was made. I'm sure they seemed a lot more original in 2005.
Momo was a decent protag, however she couldn't for the life of her just talk out her damn problems, like holy shit. Half of what happened early on could have been easily avoided if she would have just been like "hey i saw this happen, wtf?" or "hey this is a misunderstanding". Omg and the fact that later in the anime she pulled a total toji when Kairi tried telling her abou this brother. //Rolls eyes so hard. Not to mention she kept going back to help her scum bag of a friend Sae. I mean, i like that she's so dependable, but she needed to stop letting Sae in to ruin her life.
Sae was clearly the character that everyone was supposed to hate. She was absolutely horrible and would stop at nothing to ruin Momo's life. Even when they tried to make her likable in the end it didnt really work. She still spent her time plotting trying to get things to go her way.
Toji was basically that "naive, good guy" who would believe anything anyone told him, aside from Momo that is. A lot of the early drama came from him always siding with Sae and buying into all her lies. Also he "practiced kissing" with Sae so he would be ready to kiss momo???? And then had the audacity to be mad a Momo for kissing Kairi, which was forced on her, before they even started dating UGHGH so dumb. I spent the majority of the anime rooting against him tbh. That is until Kairi fucked up just a horribly as he did..
Now, Kairi is your typical pervy character who hits on all the girls, however deep down he truly cared for Momo and wanted the best for her. I honestly thought he was the most redeemable character in this show. He was always there for Momo and refused to buy into Sae's lies, and even stepped out of the way multiple times so Momo could be with Toji. He only really fucked up when he ended up having feeling for another person and acted on them while dating Momo

im not completely sure how to feel about this anime. While it definitely wasn't anything spectacular it still managed to draw me into all 25 of it's shitastic episodes. I've quit watching animes that were better than this one just due to being bored with it. So, if you're really wanting to watch some crazy ass drama give this anime a shot.

When I began watching this anime, I checked it out because it seemed girly and fun. I have a thing for love triangles and this one seemed perfect. BUT I have to say it let me down terribly. So every one should take this as a WARNING review. I will include all the pros and cons of this show. Kindly keep in mind that I am writing this as a newbie to anime.

The show starts out funny and without making much sense. I expected typical slapstick humour and a bit of romance. The first episode was hilarious but from then it went from being a ... bag of mixed emotions to utterly painful to watch. This is my first in experiencing difficulty in watching an anime. It was like a bad Asian drama with crappy writing.

I have never seen a girl as indecisive as Momo. Just when I expect that she will redeem herself, she does something which made me struggle to like her. I think the last 4-5 episodes did permanent damage to her character. The writing and her actions were way out of line. No matter how much I enjoy the 'being with two people at once' concept, Momo was the height of indecisiveness. She wasn't that great to begin with and these actions made her even less likable. She kept going back and forth between both guys which was plain tiring to watch. I actually have to say I disliked her immensely. I also have the complaint that she cried too much.

Touji wasn't great till some episodes, but there was a time when I started liking him. Then he disappeared from the radar and when he came back, I didn't care about him anymore. There was nothing about his character that interested me. He and Momo got on my nerves pretty badly when they enjoyed being lovey dovey or making out.

The only character I cared about was Kairi. If he hadn't been there, I would have dropped this show by the 2nd or 3rd episode. I really found him funny and loved his many sides. Then again the writer tries to throw in stuff and make him into an indecisive jerk. I was okay with that too. Then came some more dumb situations and all that was left was a poor version of Kairi who had become the victim of bad writing. His character had so much potential but the writer ruined it all by the end by making him mopey and annoying.

Then there was Sae who I absolutely despised. She was a tad too good at manipulating people. She provided for most of the drama and was a catalyst for most of the plot. I couldn't believe it but she turned out to be very entertaining in the last half. She remained herself and toned down her evil side a little. I liked what she did to get the couple I wanted in the end together. Her actions aren't forgivable, but since she went through hell herself I thought it was alright.

The only reason to hang on for the show is its ending. It was how I wanted and Momo finally picked the right guy. I still wasn't happy that she was making out with the other guy till minutes before she decides to choose him. I, as a viewer was still in doubt whether she still stuck to him forever or not. Momo wasn't very reliable.

Anyway- the anime has great humour which also gets lackluster by the end. It is a roller coaster in a bad way, because say that you enjoy riding it but it always makes you feeling ill. The experience of watching this anime was similar. I enjoyed it but I am not too happy with it. I am just glad that it is over. I think I need a break from romantic anime.

Please don't read if you don't want spoilers. They are minor, but still uncover some of the plot twists.

"Peach Girl" is a typical shoujo. Sweet boys and girls, sweet artstyle, feelings-feelings-feelings, everything is abnormally simple, after all. However, surprisingly, "Peach Girl" managed to distinguish itself in a bad way even here.
1) an AWFUL LY primitive storyline. I was fed up with the twists like “somebody sees X with another person and misunderstands”. It delivers at the very beginning, but starts to annoy soon, as the situations never vary. The last five episodes were a lucky exception, but still I couldn’t but think the show was ... TOO long and thus boring. Fifteen episodes would be perfectly enough to cover ALL the plotlines, I guarantee it. – 4/10
2) the only characters I approved of were Touji and Sae. Touji was the “most male” character here, but in my opinion he was too patient towards Adachi. He definitely deserves a better girlfriend than she is. Sae caught my attention due to the path she managed to walk. Unlike other characters, she was able to learn and grow in a spiritual way though it took some time and efforts. Moreover, later she was able to change others, f.e. Ryo and Kairi. Besides, Sae was a great fun when she misbehaved.
Adachi hasn’t impressed me as she cannot be called a strong personality though she looks strong from the very beginning. Risa from “Lovely Complex” is a lot stronger. Most of the time Adachi is crying or hesitating whom she likes most or arguing with her current boyfriend which is very pathetic. Plus, she depends on the opinion of other people greatly and tends to do what she is said to do without thinking herself. Well, she may seem to think but later acts spontaneously which turns out to be extremely stupid and childish. Moreover, she NEVER learns and keeps repeating the same mistakes again and again. I really doubt she managed to make her final decision as she still hesitated in the last episode. Basing on the number of times she changed her mind I may assume she does it again. With her indecisiveness she is always making the people loving her suffer which I really disapprove of.
Kairi was okay at first but later changed to worse as soon as he fell in love with Adachi. He proved himself to be weak-willed as he gave up easily in his love affair towards Adachi. Moreover, he was crying and hesitating most of the time, as well as Adachi did. His manlike actions were rare and didn't impress in comparison with Touji's actions. I guess Kairi and Adachi are birds of the same feather, so the ending is quite fair. But I really doubt why Kairi was rewarded while Touji wasn’t, for Touji sacrificed as much as Kairi did?
Besides, the character scheme included numerous love triangles and harems, but I doubt they are worth speaking of. The only thing I may say is that there was too many of them. In addition, most of the characters were whiny. – 6/10
3) the artstyle reminded me of “Lovely Complex”, however, here it was worse. Sweet colors and sweet pop-style characters, nuff said. The faces had abnormally plump lips (even the boys’ ones) which was supposed to look hot, however, as for me it wasn’t. The worst example of this cheesy Barbie-style was the ending. What’s more, some scenes, especially the most romantic ones, were simply moving pictures. – 6/10
4) the sound didn’t impress me either. The seyuus’ work was ok, but the music was average J-rock. Nothing impressed me here. – 7/10
5) enjoyment and overall – according to my impression, it is a 6. I cannot say I disliked it completely, but still it wasn't as interesting and fresh as I expected. If you like shows about relationship worries, clothes and makeup and/or have nothing else to watch, you’re welcome. Else, be warned about the show you are going to watch, or you are gonna be a bit (or a lot) disappointed.

Oh. My. God. Never in my life have I seen so much backstabbing. Was is really too much to ask for a normal sweet romance between a male and a female lead? I guess it was, because what a got was a love polygon revolving around a girl named Momo, two guys that are in love with her, but she can not pick which one of them she really loves, a girl jeaulous of Momo that tries to sabotage her relationship at least once in every single episode, a couple of random dudes that got involved in the story, fake pregnancy, fake rape attempts (well, ... kind of fake) and so many other random stuff that I do not feel like writing about because it drains all my energy. Seriously, it was too much. At some point I was not able to watch it anymore so i skipped to the last episode. After I found out how it ends, I watched the remaining episodes. Best decision ever. I am not saying the series was bad, but it made me feel anxious all the time and Momo being wishy-washy certainly did not help either. What you need are nerves of steel to pull throuht this one.

This anime seriously pissed me off. All that drama could have been avoided if people had just TALKED to each other... People can't all be THAT stupid, can they? And those girls make me feel ashamed of my gender. This is the kind of shoujo that I absolutely don't like.

I have always wanted to watch Peach Girl. The art style reminds me of Nana, and I really enjoyed that series. Plus I'm a sucker for romance animes in general. And an even bigger push over for angsty romance animes. So when I saw that Hulu had finally uploaded (in dub too!) I was over joyed to start this anime.

Story:
The story is your typical romance plot line. Beautiful girl who is struggled and misunderstood, has crush on boy. But of course there are obstacles and another boy in her mind. So in that regard. It is so ordinary. I personally like that junk.

Art:
The art is ... beautiful. The only thing that really bothered me overall about the art was they way their lips looked. Other than that, it was super beautiful.

Characters:
All pretty generic. You have a play boy, a bully, a strong male character, and of course the typical female protagonist, just with a stronger mindset.

Enjoyment:
I started out LOVING this anime. I loved the angst and the obstacles. I enjoyed it all.
But then the last three or four episodes happened and honestly, they were rushed and gross and way overly dramatic. The main character just got super annoying. Im happy about the end. But not how it was lead up to. So that's why it got a somewhat lower rating.

This show is drama after drama which I find is the only enjoyable thing about this anime.

The story I found was kinda 'WTF'-ish. As soon as you think it goes one way it turns another but its not in the way thats enjoyable it seems like the writer/creators just wanted more drama so they threw stuff together so if you like constant drama left and right enjoy this anime.

to me its one of those animes that you keep watching and youre not quite sure why youre still watching it and youre not 100% sure you like it but you want to finish it anyways.

I found ... each characters pretty annoying. Just certain things they did I wanted to slap each character and roll my eyes but at least i have a connection to them.

the art isnt terrible but its not my favorite, i find it a little weird i cant explain it though.

Shoujo is a genere I like. Full of romance and how the main couple wins ands enter into a relationship. Peach girl is basically that: How Momo involves in a relationship with 2 guys, but not at the same time. If I can be honest, this is a generic shoujo that can be fit in a teenage soap opera: Has romance with melodrama. The center of the story is with which one Momo will b

Momo is the tipical protagonist of many shojo mangas: Sweet that easy forgives. Makes friends easy and have the rival of love. So... rival. Sae is the character that is there ... only insprire hate. She is envous at Momo aparently because the seems happy and she not. She is the one that makes the story make a progress; then Momo makes decisions about what did Sae make before.

Its easy to hate Sae but only that. As a espector you can't feel other way. It took 5 minutes or less to know about Sae's feelings toward Momo. There is no character development with this character. Talking about this point, character development is very low. The only thing Momo canlearn from Sae is to fell a bit shame about her situation. Maybe she has some family problems.

Other characters are also difficult to treat. Tooji, our main and first boyfriend of Momo is a bit dumb. He prefers to bilieve first to Sae than Momo. And Tooji knows Momo before Sae. He has no reasons to believe in Sae knowing the knows Momo more time than Sae.

Tooji is the handsome and good boy character. Kairi our second boyfriend of Momo is the oposite. (much like Anthony and Terry in Candy Candy). And as I said before, Momo is pur inocent, naïve and a bit dumb main protagonist. Sae is the oposite (continue with the example, much like Candy and Eliza).

Its difficult to watch this anime if you are into anime for a while. Modern shoujo animes, more of them, can watch independent woman that romance is in second term (until they fall in love). Momo is only motivated to find a boyfriend, no matter who is it. You don’t love me? After suffer couple of days, I found a new boyfriend and I happy ever after living my new romance. No matter how many times, my rival and enemy makes me cry, I am the protagonist and I will always win. That resumes Peach girl.

It can be fun if you are really hardcore fan of shoujo animes and like to make shippings. If you are interested in: Which characters will be toghether at the end of the anime, this is for you.

STORY: The story is nothing special. It is a cliche romance love triangle. But it gets at least a 5 because of Sai. It is about a tanned girl named Momo who is constantly sabotaged by her "friend" Sai and is in love with two guys, Kairi and Toji. There are some surprising twists in the story but unless you really have no good anime to watch I would pass.
ART: This is probably the worst part of the anime. Somehow the art is too real, it's bad. The art is kinda stiff in movement and I wish it had more of a somehow "un-realistic" look. ... But since you can't base an anime on its art, I let it go.
SOUND: Sound is one of the better parts. The english dub of the title song gets on your nerves a little but the voices were good. Sai's voice was honestly the best.
CHARACTER: Honestly, the characters were all pretty shallow. They made mistakes that irritated the heck out of you. They didn't seem to gain any lessons from their relationships. Momo(the main character) was overly dramatic and she seemed clingy in her relationships with both guys. Toji was just a boring stick in the mud who didn't believe Momo at all for half of the show. Kairi was a little better than Toji and he provided alot of the comedy for the show. Sai was the best though. She was pure evil and probably the smartest character in the show. She was hilarious in her schemes and the whole character was genius. I ended up watching the show because of her.
ENJOYMENT: The enjoyment level is a little below average. I enjoyed all of the scene that took place with Sai. To be honest, most of the comedy came from what the show was lacking. It lacked a lot of things, most importantly, a plot that actually matters and has a real conflict. It was something I would finish in 2 days just to kill time. The romance does get a little interesting but other then that it was a pretty mediocre anime.
OVERALL: Watch it if you want to see a genius villain and don't mind a bad plot.

This show is far from perfect but it is one of my guilty pleasures (of which I have quite a few).
The story centers around Momo and the relationships she has with people, mainly the two main male leads and her friend / enemy / frenemy.
Without giving spoilers away about the plot that's all I can really say story wise.
Looking at the other reviews I agrees that the plot is repetitive and that the story goes too 'out there', but to be honest I don't mind it that much and have re-watched the series several times over the years.
For me one of the best ... characters is Sae, not because she is particularly well written or interesting, but because I have known people who are just like her, and sometimes I have been as gullible as Momo when trying t deal with them.
If your looking for a school based romantic drama then to be honest there are quite a few better ones (check out the recommendation tab), but if you looking for something that's pretty easy to follow and goes of on extreme tangents then this could be for you.... I'm not saying it isn't bad (it is!), I;m saying I like it because its pretty bad ... give it a go and find out for yourself :)

SPOILERS

I really had high hopes after the few couple episodes in. It really captivated me and I loved it. Mom's character really make me like her until who she chose at the end. I couldn't even finish the last episodes because nothing was working in my favour.

Momo grew a lot through the series but I am sad that she didn't end up with Toji. I didn't finish it so I don't know if she knows about the whole pictures incident with that bitch Soe or what ever. If they didn't then i wish they did and it could have explained why Toji did what he ... did. I wouldn't be okay with it if that was me. But i could atlas try to understand. I loved her and Tojis relationship more than i did with Kairi. I felt more of a friendship rather than a relationship between the two.

Now lets get to Sao.. she's a bitch i hate that she's always an aspect of the story. WHY WERENT THE COPS CALLED ON HER ? well never know. I honestly hated her as a human being and honestly wanted to kill her lol. Why was she so evil!??????

In the end the story wasn't that bad but i wish it had a better ending with Momo and Toji together :(

why is there literally a pdf file or r*pist in almost every episode?
and why are the characters all so insufferable?

however this was veryyy entertaining and filled with drama hence why i am still watching it LOL. i will say the main character is kind of dumb like bro just drop both those guys and get yourself a new nice man, nonetheless i will cut her some slack because she is only 16 and teenagers are usually just always in their head and are infatuated with the idea of love.
also wtf is wrong with her friend LMFAO? unfortunately people like that do exist but damnnn.

this ... anime is also old so like im not surprised by the amount of questionable things that took place, so keep that in mind.

At first Peach Girl seemed to be unusual and interesting. But here is an advice: just don't read the preface story of the anime.

- plot twist, plot twist and plot twist
- What the hell love is all about?
- hmm, am I satisfied? Well, here is my answer.

As i have watched Peach girl, i wondered how this could be a love triangle, but this is not definitely it. The main characters do not actually move forward to create a GREAT FEELING OF '' LOVE'' , where you might say: ''this is actually good romance buddy''.

i think giving a 6/10 is a pretty good rating. ... You will find the hardships of the characters but mainly of Okayasu Kairi who has in fact played the most important role in the series. He definitely surpassed the Female main character Momo Adachi for his lively and cheerful personality. He is the one who dissipates all misunderstandings and creates the evolution of the anime. Yet at some point in time, he is confronted with his own feelings. But he evolved rapidly in finding what he really wants and what he does not. Straight forward and to the point. He is surely the one to love compared to the rest.

Unfortunately, my feeling wont wash away though i have attempted to love the main female character. Despite Momo Adachi is kind, sweet, beautiful, and gentle, she is nothing but a Dense, Selfish girl in the inside. She keeps the audience uncertain about how she really feels as a person who loves someone honestly till the end. As soon as the anime ends, you will eventually think that she won't last long with the guy she is with, though she finally came to make a choice. As she keeps on changing lovers and i would say she is a very simple and easy girl. She keeps on misinterpreting the situations and somehow gets involved in hurting others around her unconsciously. My bad, if ever you want to love someone, she is surely not doing it right. In the end she says'' I have the right to find happiness, cause i want to be happy'' We understand her, but NOT in a Romance anime genre. Happiness and love should be two sides of the same coin my dear. You failed.

Okay, okay... I will give her some credits for being so strong till the end, for fighting and finally finding her true self, though some of her thoughts are lightly expressed. What is really important here is that she finally came to her senses and made things right and that's great.

For few who wants to know, Sae is not considered to be the best friend of Momo (the main Female Character) at the beginning. Sae is the subject responsible for creating the confusion in the anime. She does not stop until she realizes that she is torturing herself. Most viewers will find her to be a horrible character, with no ethic or self respect but, she is definitely one of the most intelligent and self realizing character. Sae alone is not entirely responsible for those bunch of plot twists, but she does have a role to play.

As for Touji Kazuya, he is shy and dependable. Though immature and seems to be a stalker, as he pops of nowhere and creates confusing in the anime in the end. From my personal opinion, he chooses the easiest path in the anime, and makes little effort to really make him deserved to be loved. But we do not despise him for being an incompetent.

As a whole, the anime provides some entertainment that should not, yup i said should not be taken seriously. Several happenings in anime are dealt without measuring the consequences of the characters actions. The characters past and characters roles restrict the fast progression of the series.

Just don't take things seriously and you will be fine. Go on.

So this anime was completely frustrating to watch I mean it could've done better. Also I randomly found this anime and decided to watch it for the sake of my enjoyment.

SO basically Peach Girl is your average Shoujo anime about this girl Momo and her wonders of highschool drama life with psychotic bitch Sae, the loving best boy Kairi and STUPID DUMBASS TOUJI.


Story: 6/10
Let's all face it this is basically MOST of the highschool shoujo drama anime that we've all seen in the 2000s with some girl falling in love and some guys trying to get kinky with her for some reason and a ... group of girls or one girl getting jealous of the protagonist because they can only think about their desires. So we have this tanned girl named Momo having this crush on a guy named Touji (oh don't worry we're going to get to him later) she wants to confess her feelings to him but she can't because guess what she is afraid that he doesn't like tanned girls because she heard that from a friend (not Sae) from a long time ago and turns out she also liked him. Anyway we also have THE MOST DECENT CHARACTER IN THE ENTIRE ANIME, Kairi, sweet loving best boy kairi who also has a crush on momo (BECAUSE WE ALL LOVE LOVE TRIANGLES) and basically he brings some comedic reliefs into the show and also see his character grow a bit later in the anime. Now out of the way it turns out Touji also has a thing for Momo and they began dating together and lived happily ever af- GOT YOU. YOU THOUGHT IT WAS ALL SUNSHINE AND LOLIPOPS HUH WELL THERE IS ONE PROBLEM...SO Momo has a "bestfriend" named Sae that terrorizes them because she ALSO likes Touji (now you see where this is going) anyway they get into some love triangle shit and indecisive shit and Momo ends up with (I aint telling you shit go watch it and find out)


Art:5/10
Nothing really stands out in terms of the artstyle because this came out in the 2000s when some shoujo anime looked kind of cheap but it's decent like others. Also I've been noticing this trend back in 2000s anime of making the shoujo boys looking like girls for some reason because sometimes I can't identify there gender btw it's not like traps where they just do this on purpose.


Sound:6/10
It's pretty decent with some 2000s j-pop rock vibe to it and it's just average.




Character: 5/10
Momo is like any other shoujo protagonist that has to deal with shit and boys and bla bla bla but she didn't just lean back and didn't do anything when she is being harassed or something she stood up for herself which I feel many shoujo protagonist don't have and just act like this dumb puppy anyway from that she is quite forgettable moving on. Next we have THE BITCH QUEEN HERSELF SAE she's what made the whole anime so frustrating and SO CRINGE to look at like seriously DOES SHE HAVE SELF ESTEEM ISSUSES THEN YOU NEED GOD IN YOUR LIFE anyway she basically tries to tear their relationship apart doing literally ANYTHING to achieve that also WHY THE HELL IS MOMO STILL HANGING OUT WITH THIS PSYCHO AFTER WHAT SHE HAS DONE TO HER THEY BOTH NEED TO GET A RESTAINING ORDER OR CALL THE DAMN POLICE!!! Anyway on to TOUJI. OH MY WHERE TO FUCKING START first off he has to be one of the DUMBEST SHOUJO BOYS I'VE EVER SEEN NO SERIOUSLY WHAT DOES MOMO SEE IN THIS BLOCK HEADED ONE DIMENSIONAL LUNATIC For example, before Momo and Touji were dating Kairi actually kissed her because why not and when Touji found out he got mad but when they were actually dating Touji kissed Sae because she told him he can use her to practice kissing on Momo (wow he is so stupid he would even fall for Sae's crap) FINALLY LAST BUT NOT LEAST WE HAVE SWEET CINNAMONROLL BEST BOY Kairi so he is basically the class clown of the show and can be stupid sometimes but not Touji levels of stupid and he get to see his love for Momo develop during the anime sometime it can be frustrating other times it drags out but still the MOST decent character in the anime.



enjoyment: 9/10
Even though I said the anime is frustrating I actually enjoyed roasting the shit out of Touji and Sae because I just love hating on them


Overall:6/10
SO YEAH your very typical shoujo anime and yeah but if you like psychotic bitches and love triangle this anime is for you anyway toodles!!!

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 ... the level of betrayal in this show is at the level of Griffith...nay even Judas. Sae is a A++ depiction of a narc-abuser friend.

The only thing I have to say is avoid the dub and this:

You've heard of a love triangle, but have you ever heard of a love circle? That's all this show is. There are two love interests and we play hot potato with which one we love for 25 episodes.

Some of the characters are interesting, but for the most part everyone is just annoying. The target audience is a mystery. The comedy was written for 4 year-olds and the plot for 14 year-olds, what more can I say. The soundtrack was decent, but the English intro and outro were just bad. The voice acting wasn't ... good in the dub, and the lines were poorly written. I didn't enjoy it. It wasn't the worst, just not good in any meaningful way.
