Peach Girl: Toji vs Kairi- Who Do You Like More?


So, at first this love triangle seemed pretty predictable to me. Momo would have her turn with Toji, figure out that he was different from what her junior high self perceived him to be, and she would go to Kairi. However, that's not how it happened. Like I explained in my last post, Toji and Momo broke up because Toji was trying to protect Momo's reputation. Here's the sequence of events following this twist:
  1. Momo and Kairi started dating
  2. The two fell in love and Momo forgot about Toji
  3. Sae fell in love with Kairi's evil older brother (the boy version of Sae)
  4. Momo found out that Kairi's number one love was the school nurse, Misao.
  5. The two break up, but get back together. Momo expresses her love to him, saying she'd wait as long as possible until he makes up his mind.
  6. Sae starts dating Kairi's brother, almost gets raped by porn people, and repents.
  7. Toji gets rejected by Misao and leaves Momo to "walk," promising to meet her at the station by noon if he chooses to stay with her. If he's late by five minutes, she'll give up.
  8. Toji becomes Momo's co-worker thanks to Sae, and she learns the truth about why they broke up.
  9. Toji learns that Momo is his one true love, but as always, shit happens and he ends up late.
  10. Momo goes off to the beach and Toji followers her for emotional support.
  11. Those two get back together and a hurt, exhausted Kairi who followed Momo all the out to where ever the hell she was in the middle of a typhoon realizes how selfish and stupid he has been.
So, now that we've been caught up...Who do you think Momo will choose? 

You know, I used to be an Okayasu (Kairi) fan, but I really don't know anymore. Toji went through so much pain and suffering for Momo's sake. I can't imagine what he must have been feeling. It's hard being the one broken up with, but it's even harder being the breakerup-er and still being in love with the person. Hurting someone you love is more hurtful than being hurt.
The two make a good memory in a place with so many bad ones...Kairi
But, Kairi really is a sweet guy. And he was there for Momo in her toughest times, and I think that Momo actually loves Kairi more than Toji. However, he's such...and idiot! He kept telling Momo to wait, and wait. He even kissed Misao! I mean dude, is she really so special that you'd ignore a girl who'd put up with not being your number one love? Gah!
Their first kiss <3
I'm so confused!! Fact wise, Kairi has always been there for Momo and they seem to have a more emotional bond than Momo and Toji...but Toji hurt himself to protect Momo, and I find that incredibly caring and heroic. I wanna know what happens so bad!!! I guess I'll just have to wait and see :)
