Here I am again going to see a movie without any expectation. I did not see the anime or read the manga, but I probably shoud see it.

Overall I liked the movie, it's super cliché really .... but super funny. I loved the characters, especially Kairi, the energy was fantastic, I think it was my favorite.
Sae was really strange, in my view, the way she reacted to things and her schemes, in the most creepy sense.I like Mizuki too, her character was diferente I guess and dramatic and super fun.

About the end I was surpirse but I like it.
Overall it's a funny and fun story.

I was waiting for this movie for a while! Though I haven’t seen the anime or read the manga it was a really intresting watch! The characters were so energetic and all the actors and actresses played their roles well.

This movie definitely played with my emotions and made me happy one minute and sad the next. Though that is one of the characteristics of a good movie.

Though I think the whole Sae thing was a little off it added an interesting plot.

The background music wasn’t all that noticeable but it was incredible when it did stand out.

I would definitely watch this movie again and recommend it to others!

It is probably your cliche teens movie but I love the plots and casts. It is indeed a movie debut for Inoo Kei but I think he did a decent job potraying his character. And Yamamoto actually fits Momo's character so well for me.

The BGM and music probably does not affected me that much because I am into the story more than the music, but the background of the show is so colorful, and I would not mind to watch this show over and over again.

A movie you should watch if you want to take a brief break from study or work. It suits your weekend to-watch-list too ! ;)

First of all, I'm a sucker for cliche movies...BUT only if  its well-executed and well-written which thank God, this movie has provided. Damn my shoujo heart is so satisfied. The whole drama of who the hell will she end up with worked for me. Of course, I'm rooting for Kairi (though I have a crush on Toji). He was there when she was at her lowest and for the first time, we see a second male lead who pushes the "lead characters" to get together. Ugh that was so refreshing. He also had the most character depth and growth. You see, not everyone is good at acads and I love how he's a person who works hard on his own way. Momo on the other hand was the typical shoujo character who's in looooove~ She's a character who's really forgiving (and somehow naive) but also would stand up for herself (DAMN I LOVE THE FESTIVAL SCENE WHERE SHE WALKS OUT ON THE TWO GUYS). Toji was the character you'd want to swoon over. He was the perfect, clean cut, gentle but will save you kind-of-guy. BUT, I hate how he handled Sae's bait. I knew it was noble idiocy from the beginning. He didn't have much of screen time, hence for me he's just a cardboard, one-sided character. Sae was the manipulative bitch (probably a psychopath) who's happy whenever our the main character suffers. I'm glad we get to see a glimpse of her character when she falls for Ryo because he says he accepts her. She was annoying all throughout the movie but I guess I love what she did at the end. At least, we get to profit on her manipulative skills. The acting was so-so. Its a bit cringy at some parts but tolerable. 

You see, everything about this movie is cliche. The betrayal of your closest friend, the noble idiocy of the boyfriend, the other male lead rescuing the lead girl, lead girl also wants to do noble idiocy...the list goes on. But you know what I really liked about this movie? The message that when you truly love someone, you'll want to make them happy even if that means letting them go.

P.S I haven't seen the manga or the anime.  So this is just the movie review per se (no comparison whatsoever)

As soon as I saw that this movie was coming out, I was really jumping from excitement. Seeing my favorite childhood anime turn into a live-action movie is a huge deal for me. And of course I had many expectation for the movie because the trailer looked so nice. But right from the very start when I sat down to watch this, all of my childhood dreams were shattered by the harsh reality. In my opinion, the biggest problem was not the plot ( the whole story was majorly changed from the original one in the anime or manga), but the actors and some of the scenes. It really felt like I was watching a cheap low-bugdet film, where they used inexperienced actors, despite the beautiful landscapes and backgrounds in the movie. However, some scenes felt really nostalgic and I was awed by the warming musical score. Overall, this movie adaptation did not exceed or nearly come close to my expectations. Nevertheless, I'd watch this movie again every once in a while. So if you're a fan of the original Peach Girl series, watch this and let me know if it was close to what you expected and if you enjoyed it.

[WARNING: the rating and review I give have the possibility to be subjective due to my preference for the genres, scenes or casts]

Well, what can I say about this movie? I laughed and cried in the middle of the night. This is a cute movie, but I hate Nagano Mei's role (>.<) It takes an effort to switch my mind to understand her role, because before I watched Hirunaka hahaha.

Ok, back to the movie. Hmm ... basically, the plot is similar with Hirunaka no Ryuusei, but with apple and apple comparison, which the heroine must choose between students, not teacher and student. The conflict is more pronounced, where the role of antagonist is really bad until the end.

I'm sad for those who left behind, but when I saw the after-credit, I'm glad that everyone is okay (^_^)

Watched mainly for Mackenyu, which means I didn't know what to expect from everyone else. Which is good, because the movie as a whole required that you suspend your sense of logic while watching it - the main character vacillated between two guys, her "best friend" constantly made her life hell, and just my entire thought while watching was "why???"

Nagano Mei was the only decent actress in this, and despite her character's actions and motivations I like how she made Sae seem less like a caricature. Inoo Kei and Yamamoto Mizuki were ok, but this is the only project I've seen them in.

Basically - I would not watch this again, the one time I've watched it is good enough. Maybe I need to read the manga to understand it better.

This was a rather nice and refreshing movie to watch. The cast was great and the storyline was good. In my opinion, since it was a movie so like 1h:56, even though the time seems long, but the story was very rush. For example, the interaction between the main girl and the second lead was very short, like its shown that they spent a lot of time together, but it felt as if they only spend 10 minutes together. The main guy looks quite young, his personality was also demonstrated as very childish, so compare the main girl she shown as to be much more mature, so therefore I didn't quite felt the chemistry between them at all. I was happy they made it into live action, but for me to rewatch a movie that is rather rush, no backstory and a non-passionate relationship between the lead, it is quite hard.

Another manga movie, but with an unexpected ending. Actually, the movie was too manga like, with some ridiculous scenes, like the one where the girl 'jumped' out of the window and the surgery recovering guy brought her back into the room using only one hand... But, it was cute enough, with a light mood towards the love story and the whole sparkly theme. The girl was good enough, though the crying scenes weren't her it game... The boys were good as well, especially the 'second' lead, who was cute and funny, but a little too boyish. Overall, an okay movie, its best feature being the ending.

I watching this in order to get my heart doki-doki but what I get is pain.

Broadly, this film tells the story of Momo Adachi's love story which is full of conflict, pain and betrayal. That's what I want it to focus in, I don't know if this film is a manga adaptation or not, if so, it is too much, because it seems that there are actually a lot of conflicts but trying to be included in a film whose duration is not much. Sacrificing the development of the story & character here that looks not optimal, tends to be superficial, so it can't produce any attachment and emotion to me.

It should be make into series with improvements in some parts of the story.

Didn't read the manga, watched the movie and thought it was boring and jumbled

The premise really did intrigue me. Because she's darker skinned they think she's a bitch? My train of thought was...well that is an interesting summary, let's check it out. Also I saw Mackenyu in a different drama so I was intrigued to see that he was in this movie.

Now I did not read the manga so I don't have any knowledge of what would happen. It a was weird jumble of events and I found myself really confused at the rate at which things were going and why they would happen. Mackenyu's character really had me for a loop because I did not expect his character to act the way he did.

The story felt really rushed and no development was well thought out. All the romance stuff was in a montage and I'm supposed to believe these two characters are now dating and in love? Okay, but they really suited being friends more.

I found myself losing interest towards the end and just felt meh about the movie overall once finished.

Overall, I think the best way to fully enjoy this movie is if you’ve read the manga or watched the anime. I feel that you’d get the best experience that way, since it does follow fairly closely to its original counterparts.

That being said, the movie does give off a sense of nostalgia. It was a fun watch, even though it was a little cliche/cringy at times.

Now I only wonder if they plan to make a live action of the sequel since the actors ages would be more appropriate for a TYL setting.
