It's not easy being beautiful. The envy, the jealousy, the vicious rumors spread by your best friend. That's life for young Momo. While everyone thinks that Momo is a wild party girl, the reality is that she is shy and honest. Can Momo confess her love to her classmate Toji, or will her best friend Sae steal him away. It's a bittersweet drama of growing up and fitting in that will charm girls everywhere.

I love it X3

I watched the anime first and now I just finished the manga, it´s a great feeling finishing the whole series.

I totally loved the anime, and the manga was so nostalgic. Getting to know the whole story was amazing.

PS: I may have to agree with some other comments, between the anime and the manga, in this case, I would prefer the anime, but I´m not saying the manga is boring, terrible or something like that, because the manga is just as amazing as the anime.

There are some cases as Sugar Sugar Rune where the manga is absolutely better than the anime. And there are some cases where the anime and the manga are equally an excellent job like Marmalade Boy.

I really love the Peach Girl Code:
"Always love and accept yourself for who you are"

The art was amazing, the clothes, the places, everything was so well done.

Enjoyed it

I enjoyed this series, I've read alot of manga so I was pretty sure who she'd end up with but I had my doubts from time to time towards the end.

I didn't find Sae that annoying, some people seemed to hate her, I can't really see why, she plays the villain and she does it good. I was more annoyed at Toji for being so naive from time to time in the start.
Momo was also a bit annoying at some points but it was all really realistic tbh.
Some parts was a bit like, "why can't they just be straight with eachother" but it drove the stort on in a nice way. One of the best love triangle stories I've ever read.

P.S. I've seen this manga around for quite some time but always hesitated to pick it up because of comments and I didn't really take a liking to the cover of the book... It's really worth reading tho

Craaaaaazy

Hahaha this manga is insaaaaane. It was the first manga I ever read and thus it does hold a fond place in my heart, but really, it's actually kinda awful. But kinda awful in a good way. It's like a love triangle gone super wrong and crazy, but kinda done right as well since at some points you really don't know who the main character will end up with (although more experienced shoujo readers probably would know...) but yeah, by the end, I realized it's really kinda stupid, but somehow i still like it, perhaps since it's my first manga... The character development is pretty good in the first half, but I feel like after a certain point they start focusing on the drama too much and the plot just spins out of control. Although by the end she ends up with someone, you really doubt how long the relationship will last because of all the swinging she does within the series...

Gag me with a spoon (the big wooden kind, please!)

I never really could get into this manga. I found that Momo really didn't stand up and prove to anyone that she wasn't the way they thought she was - rather all she did was allow suspions to fester by acting out like she has something to hide while always pushing forward her lil-miss-perfect image. Strangely enough though, I found myself liking Sae. Although she is cruel and petty, after reading 'Sae's Story' it isn't like you can say she had the perfect home life. The justice that was served to her at the end of the series, in my opinion, was stupid. 'Boo-hoo, realizing that Momo was one of her only true friends'? Please! Gag me cuz Momo although she didn't outright do anything nasty, she was was just as Sae.

I really don't know what to say. I love this manga because it was one of the first mangas I read that got me into the manga world but the plot.. is so weak! LOL it's full of cliches. I couldn't stand how the mangaka kept on making their lives harder and harder. And all this revolved around love and how Momo didn't trust her S/O (significant other). What was the outcome for Toji? And how come she's all chummy chummy with Sei towards the end? Eh..I read this manga twice ( reread it again this time but i skipped the first 8 volumes) for the hell of it but I wouldn't want to read it again 🙂

Needy, annoying

by Dragonfiremule

Rating: 3.0 / 10.0

I must say, Momo is the most NEEDY, BITCHY, and indecisive main female lead I've found in shojo thus far. I mean, there are the normal, idiotic, stupid, can't make up-my-mind shojo girls, but this is just ridiculous! I mean, she is just so needy... UGGGH. Its disgusting!

The story itself just seems to be repeating itself over and over, only with different characters. Also, I dislike how Momo drops the male leads, forgets about them completely, leave them to be slaves, and then comes running back to them when she gets dumped.

Sae is idiot and plain stupid. She is no doubt the worst villian ever, on top of all that. She is as needy as momo, but even stupider and more annoying.

Drama on a Stick

Rating: 7.0 / 10.0

I swear, this manga is pure drama on a stick. It's good, but pure drama.

I'd recommend it for a quick, light read. Nothing too mind boggling, except why they keep being nice to Sae instead of kicking her to the curb.

It's very dramatic

by MASTER GUYVER

Rating: 7.5 / 10.0

I watched the anime serval times because I found it extremely funny. I went to the manga hoping for more content. It's a pretty ok story but a lot of issues could be solved with proper communication. There's always one issue after another and Momo can't catch a break.

PS. It not worth going to Peach girl Next it's just more unneeded drama just because and has a similar ending to the original and gives the original a bad reputation. So if you don't want to risk having peach girl ruined for you just stick to the original instead.

I seen the anime before the manga and even with all the drama I love this series as an adult. Yes there’s is a lot more drama then your typical high school. Yes there is a lot of things that’s makes you wonder if that was the right choice, art style is beautiful and the characters can be annoying but where they drama in all of it if thee weren’t.
