Synopsis

Momo Adachi struggles with insecurities about her tanned skin daily, which is only worsened by her high school peers. Moreover, the girl who Momo treats as her best friend, Sae Kashiwagi, is the most vicious of them all—spreading hateful lies and scheming evil plans to ensure Momo does not outshine her.

Unfortunately for Momo, she is about to face a tremendously difficult battle when Sae realizes that the two most attractive guys in school have feelings for her. Can Momo keep her long-time crush, Kazuya "Touji" Toujigamori, by her side despite Sae's attempts to tear them apart?

Background

Peach Girl won the 23rd Kodansha Manga Award in the Shoujo category in 1999.

The series was published in English by Tokyopop, who split the series into two parts, with volumes one through eight printed under the title Peach Girl, and volumes nine through 18 under the title Peach Girl: Change of Heart. The first part was published from April 16, 2001, to January 14, 2003, and was later re-published in the original right-to-left format. The second part was released from March 11, 2003, to November 9, 2004. Two box sets were later released for both parts.

The manga was adapted into a Japanese live-action film that premiered on May 20, 2017.

This manga is a must read for all romance lovers! This manga has a fantastic story line and it is very compelling. You'll fall in love with the characters, and hate the others making it an amazing manga. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll want to punch Sae over and over again. The only thing I don't like about this manga is how the mouths are drawn, but that is no reason to not read this manga. So what are you waiting for go read this!

Mixed Feelings
I remember the first time I read this manga, I was about 10 years old. I thought it was brilliant and hilarious, and loved every panel of it. But after reading it now, I can see so many flaws in not only the storyline, but also the characters.

The story itself is a unique idea, but is poorly executed. Most of the chapters consist of Momo complaining about how people view her as a slut and isolate her because of her tan skin. Not only is this highly unrealistic, but brought to the utmost extreme. Let me explain what I mean.

Most people might think of her ...

I've been slowly reading more shojo manga and Peach Girl was a title I've heard about for years because of its popularity. I can see why it was popular, but holy manga gods was this a frustrating read.

First off, this manga is manipulative. The characters in it are manipulative and the author is trying to manipulate the audience as much as possible. It was so frustrating reading the first few chapters because of how obvious the characters were about creating plot and tension that I hate read the first three or so volumes.

Characters:
There is definitely a problem with characters. What this manga does really well ...
