Bar a few episodes that actually further the story and bring the girls closer to their final goal, the standard formula is maintained.
They eventually attack with a monster-of-the-week henchman, the girls transform and go into battle, win in the end, and all is well with the world. A standard episode has the girls fussing a bit over some event of everyday life (usually involving the favors of their love interests) while the villains plot a nasty and often slightly daft scheme. The series works to a formula, and the viewer knows it. But if they're able to forgive this lack of plot originality, fans of magical girl series and cute, fluffy anime in general might very well enjoy this series a lot.įor Wedding Peach doesn't really need an innovative plot. The angel Limone's penchant for arriving at the very last minute to help our heroines out is an obvious nod to Tuxedo Kamen, and the at first difficult co-operation with the more mature Salvia reminds one of Sailors Neptune and Uranus quite distinctly. The way Momoko and Yousuke constantly argue is very similiar to how Usagi and Mamoru didn't get along at all in the early days of Sailor Moon. Of course, since both series fall into the same magical girls genre, there are bound to be similiarities, (in the same way that every SF movie has spaceships and lasers) but a trained eye can tell when Wedding Peach is deliberately copying it's main rival. One major criticism Wedding Peach often receives is that it very blatantly borrows plot elements from Sailor Moon.
That, in a nutshell is the plot set-up for what seems like a very typical magical girls anime series.
One day, they are given magical powers to transform into the fabled Love Angels Peach, Lily and Daisy (a fourth angel named Salvia later joins them) in order to fight against demons plotting to overrun the world and stamp out love and gentleness altogether. Momoko, Yuri and Hinagiku are three young girls slightly obsessed with the idea of a happy marriage.
