Peach Girl

Nov 30, 2010

Story: Drama, drama, drama. It's like a high school soap opera. It's really addicting and you're done with a volume before you know. It's got plenty of drama, comedy and romance. It can be pretty melodramatic at times but it does good with what it's going for. I don't have as much problem with the story as I do with the characters but I'll get to that. I did like the ending. Warning though: it's very addicting. VERY ADDICTING. Also, I did like the Peach Girl code: Love yourself for who you are. I thought it was a really nice touch.

Art: The art is ok. Sometimes the dramatic scenes don't do it for me. I think it's too much and not well done. The characters look ok but not that attractive. The clothing is weird too. There are a lot of sparkles and blushes but that's to be expected. The backgrounds are ok but not that great. It wasn't an eyesore but I definitely wouldn't want to go to out and buy the art book.

Characters: Annoying. I liked Momo at first but she killed it for me with her attitude toward certain situations (I don't want to give anything away). They all make bad decisions that don't make a lot of sense. There usually is a better way to handle a situation but they just don't think. I really don't like these characters. They do show some development but, by the point, I'm really annoyed. One of my least favorite casts and is the reason why Peach Girl is given such a low score.

Overall: If you love drama, romance and are willing to put up with hella annoying characters, Peach Girl is for you. If you love drama, romance and somehow are willing to put up with hella annoying characters, you'll probably finish Peach Girl but be ashamed that you read it. By the way, I wouldn't read the fan mail thing at the end of the volume about Sae because it's just irritating.

7/10 story
