Peach Girl is written by Miwa Ueda and of all the comics she's ever written, adachi momo relates the most to her. in jr high and high school, miwa ueda-sensei was also on the swim team, with the same problem of tanning so easily. now that she's a cartoonist, she spends all her time indoors. her tan's gone, and when her old high school friends see her, they can't believe she's the same person! besides the funny jokes and amazing artwork, most people favour peach girl because of it's realism. no super powers, no long lost love, no magic, and no martial art feats. this is a real girl, with real friends, living with real situations in the realistic world: peer pressure, back stabbing friends, rumours, and sex. most people can relate to adachi's relationship with kashiwagi. i often hear about people who have their very own kashiwagi, tojigamori, or even okayasu in their lives. and it's that relation we have with momo that makes us love her so much.
