Back when I first joined MAL, which I believe was sometime in the Devonian Period, I frequently reviewed ultra edgy schlock, bad hentai, and other fodder to create short, comedic reviews. However, I was entirely focused on the male experience. There’s actually an untapped goldmine of schlock shoujo that I completely missed! Today, I will rectify this mistake by taking a look at Peach Girl.
I want to start off by saying at least one nice thing about Peach Girl. The music is pretty good and that extends to both the OP and ED. Honestly, nothing to complain about in this department. The mangaka also has a unique art style that lends itself to some striking character designs. She really loves fashion and dressing up her characters in wild outfits. This makes sense, since she was a friend and w…

I want to give a fair warning if she had not ended up choosing the guy I wanted her to I would have give a 0 if I could, but all worked out in the end.
STORY:
The story was awful, and it had a twisted concept at that. A girl in love with a guy, and a "friend" who does everything in her power to make the main characters life miserable, and along with this another boy who is also in love with the main character makes the story all the more complicated. I hated the story! She had a "friend" as I mentioned literally make the class mentally and physically abuse her, and yet the main character can still forgive her "friend" over and over even though her "friend" pulls the same kind of crap every time. The only reason I even give a 2 is because she ended up with the character I like the most.

Peach Girl is one of those shows you will love and also hate at the very same time; and you will enjoy every minute of it.
The story is about Momo Adachi, a girl who's entire life changes when her best friend pries in her love life and causes a lot of confusion and misunderstandings. Momo's best friend Sae is a conniving and manipulative girl who will do anything to make herself feel better than others-- including hurting Momo, lying about her and manipulating everyone into believing her. In an attempt to keep Sae from ruining things with her crush, Momo lies and tells her she likes someone else. Momo is then caught in a love triangle when both her real crush and the boy she lied about liking actually like her back.
The story was enjoyable enough despite sometimes being super over-the-t…

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-…

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 figur…

I'm here hoping to lift at least some bad impressions about this anime. Contradictory to most of the reviews here, I think this anime is worth watching.
It was hilarious, annoying, sad, touching and extremely emotional. It had many themes that would make you question life, love, friendship and happiness.
Yeah, you can say that Momo is a bitch. But she had her reasons. The whole story is like a matter of misunderstandings and awfully bad timings. But it shows what happens in real life. It wouldn't give you false hopes nor ideal situations where everyone can have their happy ever afters.

This Review is about "BITTERNESS" I'm Just being honest to myself and what I really felt while watching the series.
Yesterday I've just finished watching Peach girl and it gives me a creeps through out all the end.
I was annoyed, disappointed and frustrated about the outcome of the story especially the ending because how evil can a person be.

This is one of those animes that most of you mega anime fans can finish in about a day if you have the time. I never have that much time so it took me a bit but this is an overall great anime. The characters can be loved or hated it just depends on where you stand. I stood thinking both guys were great and Momo was an amazing person. She deserved either of them and they both worked hard to get their girl. The ending was something you probably wont see coming and the last few episodes are very suspensful. The show is laughing funny sometimes and shocked or crying serious at times. You will more than likely hate Sae. Unless you have issuse with the fact that Momo is an angel that gets in the devils way. If you have a heart for soory ones though then you may just change your mind.

If you have a high tolerance for frustration and annoyance, then you can maybe handle this anime. If not, I wouldn't suggest this one.
Story: 4/10
There was nothing special about this show except the fact that the female lead, Momo, is tanned which actually didn’t influence or affect the main story. Additionally, she has a so-called “friend-enemy” or “frenemy” who is exerting so much effort to ruining Momo’s romantic and social life for a petty reason. For a rom-com, drama (which, BTW I really do enjoy), the story was quite shallow and dull. All you’ll see in 25 episodes is Momo repeatedly and indecisively shifting from one love interest to another in her love-triangle.
Art: 6/10
The art wasn’t bad nor spectacular. The only art feature that distracted me throughout the series was the lip…

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 he…

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 ru…

I like drama as much as the next person, but I would never suggest watching this.
Drama isn't bad b/c there's always a reason behind people's behavior, and I watched the entire anime trying to figure out what was going on. I never did.
All I got was one girl (Momo) is obsessed one guy, loses him, get's stuck on another guy, runs back to the first guy when she gets a chance, then changes her mind and goes back to the second guys.
Besides establishing that the characters were cliche' (the over-sacrificing good boy, the loud boy who never does anything right, the mean girl, and the confused main character bubble head) there was absolutely no character development.
If your watching this because you like a-good-love-triangle-that's-really-more-of-a-love-scribble, or b/c you like dramatic r…

“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…

Well, this anime started out nicely, and as it progresses the story became rather dramatic.
Ironically, towards the end, Momo was rather annoying and selfish in my opinion, despite her being the most pitiful character to start with.
In my opinion, there's a moral to this anime, and that is you gotta be patient! Momo in my opinion was the cause for the commotion towards the end, this is because she was way too indecisive about her feelings. She was hurt by Touji and so decided to give Kairi a chance. It was all cute and sweet when ti started, but things changed after Momo found out about Misao, and from then on i thought she was rather pushy and selfish in the fact that she likes to judge before knowing!
Momo becamse extremely selfish and unbearable for me to keep watching, just becaus…

I did not like this anime. Characters play 'The Love' as a game. Love can not be changed in 1-2 actions. It cannot be changed by saying two words. I hate from this anime because main girl changes her love from other to other. I not agree with that.
Lovely Complex better than this. Try to watch LC instead of this.
One human can really only fall in love one time and one person.

the only thing that got me starting this show was Funimation channel. it seemed really interesting at first, although the story line is cliche. but i decided to give it a try. already from the first episode, i could tell that Momo was going to be a pain to watch. she was so obsessive with toji from the get go. but it wasn't until later on that you could really see her obsessiveness. she threatens to jump out windows, get's angry when she sees her boyfriend talking to someone else other than her, and she waits 5 minutes for her boyfriend. any later than that, she assumes the relationships over. pretty obvious she's desperate for a boyfriend....she just get's plain annoying. her decisions were plain, and her love life over exaaggerated.
everything about this story is unrealistic. i had hea…

My notes & Opinion on this anime
[This portion is meant for people who don't want to read the whole review.]
If you're into high school comedy romance, Peach Girl should be on your "plan to watch" list. But this anime is one of those love it or hate it anime. You either REALLY love the drama that goes on, the characters, and the conflicts. Or you seriously hate how unrealistic, annoying, and overly dramatic it can be.
This anime was EXTREMELY hard for me to score because there are times when I thought this…

How to describe Peach Girl....
In a word; forgettable.
The story is completely over-the-top melodrama, filled with plot-twists that even soap-writers would find unrealistic. girl(momo) has history with guy A(touji), girl's friend(sae) is out to sabotage her life at every bend, girl meets guy B(kairi), guy B chases girl...who is in love with guy A...while girl's "friend" continues to try and sabotage her life. Cliche angsty love-triangle ensues, rinse and repeat.
There is literally nothing in this story that you either haven't seen done (better) before, beyond the wacky twists that are hardly believable in the realm of reality.
The art style, while somewhat unique, comes off at times as tacky and borderline visual novel-esque.
The soundtrack was limited and overused
The characters…

I thought Peach Girl was an okay anime. I'm not a big fan. However, when I read about it, I thought it was pretty interesting.
Story: 7/10. The story, as you can figure out, is probably very typical and you can probably guess each of the characters' moves. Let's put it this way; if it were chess, the character would be losing. Badly. Although, all in all, the drama and suspense of it kept me going, even though I knew how it was going to end.
Art: 8/10. Not the best, not the worst. I was a little bugged by the way the characters were drawn, but everybody has their own preferences. :) It wasn't bad enough so that I couldn't watch it, so it was bearable.
Sound: 9/10. Not much to say; the opening and the ending were nice, but some of the characters voices had bugged me. But it's okay.

Peach Girl is a high school love triangle (square?) story that probably wouldn't surprise most people. It's enjoyable enough if you like the genre anyway, so I'd suggest it to people who like this sort of thing but I wouldn't say you'd have to rush out to get your hands on it.
I kept on being reminded of Bokura Ga Ita as I watched this. They're similar type stories in a way; especially in the main conflict of the heroine and the two men in her life (and also some plot points, frankly). I think the overall quality of Bokura Ga Ita was better than Peach Girl, but I thought that the heroine in Peach Girl, Momo-chan, was a lot more likeable than Nana (she *reallly* annoyed me in the second half of BGI).
