Happily Ever After

For those of you new the the series, yes, the manga and anime known as "Wedding Peach" (WP) looks a lot like "Sailor Moon" (SM). Why? Well, not only is it a typical magical girl shoujo (such as "Magical Girl Pretty Sammy" and "Tokyo Mew Mew"), but the producers of Sailor Moon have actually worked on the series. I also find WP different in that it has a more focused storyline (saving love versus saving the whole universe), fewer magical warriors, and one singular body of evil. So, if you enjoy SM or like series but want something more digestable, I highly recommend WP. As for the sixth volume, I admit, it was rushed. Nao Yazawa, the creator, admits it to being rushed. And frankly, I like her honesty. I do not see many manga writers that own-up to such things; at most, I see them tip-toe around the subject. (Of course, this could just be my experience; if you've read of others that have acted similarly, be thankful.) That being said, the storyline is wrapped up well with a mix of drama, action, and a fitting happily ever after.

Very Cute

I love Wedding Peach, and when I found out it was being published into the English language, I was pshyced! I've been into Wedding Peach for about three years, and I never thought it would make it to the USA, but it has. Anyways, this manga was pretty good. It is obvious that it wasn't translated from the original Japanese version, but from the German version because there seems to be german words in the backround scenes that are supposed to be sound effects...kind of strange. Other than that, its worth buying. I definately recomend!

Not For The Casual

Wedding Peach takes a definite shoujo-magical girl fan. The series is the epitomy of shoujo-magical girl so if you aren't a fan, you will not like Wedding Peach. It's a story about a typical girl with two best friends who fight to keep love in the human world. Though the best part about the whole series is the relationships between the characters; which is the actual backbone of the story. Take away the frills and magic wands, you still have a remarkable story about teenage love.A dedicated Wedding Peach fan will find volume one interesting. A first time fan will probably really get into the story around volume three. But remember, you cannot enter a story several chapters ahead.

Wedding Peach is just the greatest

I have seriously waited patiently for years for any Wedding Peach manga/anime to come out in English. It was seriously the happiest day when I read that the manga was coming out. Wedding Peach is one of my favorite animes (others include Cardcaptor Sakura, Fushigi Yuugi, Escaflowne, and Ceres) and I recommend this manga to any one who like shojo. It's just the best!
