Momotarō (桃太郎) is heroic, courageous and friendly. He wields a small sword (just the right size for him!) and can summon various animals to aid him in battle. A dog can appear with him when he's on the ground, a monkey can appear with him while he is dangling from a platform, and a pheasant can appear with him when he's in the air. The monkey throws persimmons.

They name him Momotaro and raise him, and he later goes out on his first adventure: fighting hostile oni (variously described in the English‐language stories as demons, devils, spirits or monsters) on their island with (in most versions) the help of talking animals—a dog, a monkey and a pheasant—that he encounters on the way. The leader of the oni is sometimes named as Akandoji.

The leader of the oni is sometimes named as Akandoji. Some public domain works portray him as undertaking his first adventure as a young man while others portray him as still being a child. Some describe him as having great strength, even super strength, with one story (the 1874) describing him as also being of giant size for his age. Public domain stories in English have translated his name as Peach‐Boy, Little Peachling, Son of a Peach and Peach Darling.
