[edit] Series overview

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The story follows Momoko Hanasaki, a junior high school girl who is in trouble between the Angel World and the Demon World. It all starts when Aphrodite tells Momoko that she is the legendary Love Angel Wedding Peach, and that she will take place of her mother, Sakura, in finding and protecting the Saint Something Four, after a devil named Pluie tries to steal Momoko's mother's ring. Now she must protect the sanctity of love from Reine Devila and her minions. Her friends, the other Love Angels, are Yuri Tanima (Angel Lily), Hinagiku Tamano (Angel Daisy), and Scarlet O'Hara (Angel Salvia). She also has Jama-P, who originally was a minion of Raindevila. Momoko is in love with Yosuke who is, unknowingly, a half-demon warrior of a tribe in the Devil World named Viento; Yosuke's father, coincidentally, is the one who sent Celestia (Sakura) and himself to Earth in the first place. Yuri is in love with Captain Yanagiba of the football team, otherwise known as the angel Limone. The Love Angels must protect the world with love, or live in a world filled with nothing but hate.

[edit] Game based on the show

A Super Famicom game was released only in Japan in 1995. In the game, the player plays as one of the three main girls (either Momoko, Yuri or Hinagiku) to compete with each other in a series of mini games. The ultimate goal is to win the competition with the other two girls so that the player can ask the guy that all three girls are in love with Yanagiba to the school dance. The game has a three player option as well, where two other people can play the other two girls that you did not pick. The fan translation of the game changes some of the character's names to Western names; for example, Yanagiba's name is changed to Tim.[1]
