Strategy/Usage

Like the other Ultra Souls, Momotaro has significantly different stats between Normal (spammable) and Evolved Form (high performance), both of which can be used effectively depending on the situation.

Normal Form

Momotaro, with his quick production time, low cost and with the ability to freeze angel enemies and red enemies, is very helpful in stages like Oncoming Maelstrom and Attack on R-Cyclone, but he can also be used to freeze angel enemies with low range such as Boraphim, Divine Cyclone and others. Although it's not his forte, he can also be used as a generalist damage dealer, not unlike Paris Cat.

Evolved Form

After evolving, this unit can be a good support unit to freeze red and angels from a good range. The quick attack animation and time between attacks make him a good medium-range support unit, while the low cost and recharge time can make for some good stacking and a high probability to freeze enemies. Beware of their speed, however, as they can easily enter the range of enemies that have been knocked back.

Appearance

• Normal Form: Looks like a young Japanese boy (Cat) holding two Japanese fans and swaying from side to side. He has rosy cheeks and his hair is in a high pony tail. He also has a sword tucked into his belt.
• Evolved Form: Has lots of friends including a bird, monkey, and a skinny cat like creature along side him. They all are riding on a large quad bike-like machine (called a dune buggy) with a mini-gun on the back and missile launcher under the bike.
• True Form: The Dune Buggy is now fully colored with a red and green paint scheme with flame decals, the flag pattern is changed, and the hubcaps are spiked Oni (Japanese demon/devil) masks and the peach in front of the mini-gun is opened, revealing a little cat that resembles the part of the story where Momotaro comes out of the peach.

Trivia

• This character is based on a Japanese folklore Momotarō .
• The true form of the unit has one of the peaches cut in half resembling the apparition of Momotaro as said in the lore.
• The eccentric group seen riding the dune buggy in the Evolved and True Form is a Japanese-twist reference to post-apocalyptic films such as Mad Max, Doomsday or Wastelander.
• Difference from previous version: Ver 2.8.0 to Ver 2.9.1: slower attack rate (evolved form), which is a nerf.
