Wedding Peach Review

I previously reviewed Tokyo Mew Mew and Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne and mentioned in both that I would watch and review Wedding Peach. Well now I finished it so I am going to review it! Ai Tenshi Densetsu Wedding Peach or simply Wedding Peach started as a 6-volume 1994 manga written by Sukehiro Tomita. Then another 1-volume 1995 manga, Wedding Peach Ai Tenshi Tanjou hen came out. Then it became a 51-episode 1995 anime series by OLM Inc. Additionally, there is a 4 episode OVA, Wedding Peach DX and another 1-volume 2004 manga, Wedding Peach Young Love. Wedding Peach is a magical girl romance anime. While it does sound and look a lot like Sailor Moon and Tokyo Mew Mew, let me point out that the manga writer Sukehiro Tomita also wrote Sailor Moon as well and let's be honest there's not such thing as an original idea nowadays. Besides I'd rather have a good cliche than a bad original idea, the whole reason why cliches become common. Now I'm pretty embarrassed about doing a review on this girly magical girl anime as I am a grown man but I've done plenty of other reviews I'm embarrassed about and will probably doing more in the future. With that being said I really did like Wedding Peach and would recommend it to anyone who likes magical girl anime.

Summary
There are three known worlds-the human world, the angel, world, and the devil world. The evil queen Raindevilla yearns to destroy the angel world with the help or her many devil minions. The goddess Aphrodite sends an angel to the human world, Limone, to summon three love angels in the form of three school girls, Momoko Hanasaki, Yuri Tanima, and Hinagiku Tamano, who together become angel Lilly, Angel Daisy, and the Wedding Peach. The three girls must fight to overcome the evils of the devils, as well as their own lives and restore peace to the angel world by gathering all pieces of the Sacred Four Somethings (or Saint Something Four) and defeat the evil queen once and for all.

My Thoughts
While I'm embarrassed to say it, I did really like Wedding Peach, but it's not the first anime I'm embarrassed to like and won't be the last. The characters in Wedding Peach are lovable in their own way and pretty well thought out. Momoko is your typical cute magical girl but has qualities that make her unique. The story is what sets Wedding Peach apart from other similar magical girl anime such as Sailor Moon. Romance is the best part of the story which is what I really enjoyed in this anime. Momoko takes some time to figure out who she is really in love with and the love-story happens to be a star-crossed lovers romance, like Romeo & Juliet. Wedding Peach is an enjoyable magical girl anime, being cute, funny, and romantic all in one.

My Conclusion
I would give Wedding Peach 4.5/5 stars or a 9/10 score. I enjoyed Wedding Peach and I would recommend it for anyone who like magical or romance anime. I will be watching and reviewing similar magical girl romance anime, Cardcaptor Sakura, Mermaid Melody, and Nanatsuiro Drops in the future.
