Peach Girl has it all.

"I've seen many anime shows and in my opinion It's 1 of the top romance anime's ever. Of course it's not for kids due to the vulgar language and sexual references and other stuff (that I won't say because it will ruin it for you), It has laughs, drama, comedy, a little violence. And It is not just for teen girls like someone said on the Peach Girl Vol.1 review, I'm a 19 year old guy and I love this anime, it has it's sad parts and happy moments. Must watch."

"My wife has become a great fan of anime. For our aniversary I gave her this set. She was crying through the whole series. She said that it is by far the Romance anime she has ever watched."

This thing is just so darn much fun

"I'm a 49-year-old SF writer, who prefers spec-fic anime, but I just loved this silly little soap opera. I tried it just on a whim and fell in love with it.



Momo is such a great character. She's well-meaning, desperate to be accepted, madly in love with a guy who barely knows she's there, touchingly vulnerable, and at the same time tough, given to bursts of anger, even violent when she thinks she's being attacked--very much, in short, like a real teenage girl, although I'd expect more of this over-the-top melodrama in the US than in Japan.



Sae is, admittedly, a little hard to believe--is anyone THAT single-mindedly evil at such a young age? But she just does it so well, such a perfect portrait of a sociopath in action.



And I love how Kairi, who starts out as a sex-crazed opportunist, decides to help Momo and Toji just out of pure altruism, and is happy when they finally reconcile despite having wanted Momo himself. Don't tell me teens are never altruistic. They may never be CONSISTENTLY altruistic, but I believed Kairi could act the way he did in real life.



The school ostracism of Momo due to Sae's lies and staged confrontations is harrowing, but by episode six we have a happy ending, and from there on it's just more soap opera. But those first six episodes are enough to redeem the series for me. They should make a full-length movie out of them and release it theatrically. I'm serious. Just snip the intermediate intros and credits and the summaries and previews, and the length would be perfect. Are ya listening out there, Bandai?Parole"
