About
【Folklore: Momotaro】 Once upon a time, there lived an old couple. One day, the old couple found a giant peach.
From the giant peach, a healthy and adorable baby emerged. The old couple named the baby Guest and decided to raise her with care.
Guest grew up and set out on a journey, calling herself Momotaro. Along the way, she met a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant. Together, they headed to Ogre Island and defeated the ogres. —This is the folktale of "Momotaro."

Guest laments, "I worked so hard to defeat the ogres..." And behind her, four men are secretly watching her back.
