Peridot is a very interesting manga, besides the fact that it isn't highly publicized. It is about the mysterious, Mahiru, who believes in not putting any more effort than needed into the things she does, or getting involved with anyone or anything that doesn't personally concern herself. Her viewpoints slowly change as she recollects her past while teaming up with two other (hot) high school girls; Akira and Kaede as they encounter scandals, and fight off bands of delinquents in and out of their school. The story line is split up into many different short stories, which follow the main characters as they ... journey through their lives trying to make them a little less boring and pass the time between classes (which they don't attend ^^). The stories also introduce all of the characters within the plot, while revealing a little bit more about the mysterious Mahiru and her past as the story moves along. Mahiru and her crew go through their glory days of high school fighting off pervy old men, wanna be gangsters, delinquents, and people who just can't seem to grasp the concept that they will never win. Mahiru's group tries desperately (excluding Mahiru..) to shape their dull lives into ones filled with excitement everyday. The story is filled with many intense and high quality fighting scenes, which can be seen as early as the first chapter when the main character, Mahiru beats a group delinquents senseless after they tried to rape Akira the previous night. Anyone who loves reading Seinens about girls duking it out in martial arts and beating each other up (with some ecchi of course ^^) should most certainly give this read a shot.
