There have been rumors that peculiar murders have been happening recently… Witnesses say that the culprit has an odd appearance, resembling that of a monkey, a dog, or a pheasant.

Tomoko Okayama was a dietwoman that lived in Atami. She was particularly close with her son, Momotarou, who thought she was cool like the fairytale figure he shared the same name with.

When a fire broke out at Momoi Department Store, more than twenty people died, including Okayama's husband and son. She believed that it was actually arson and it was covered up by the 5/5 Club. When she confronted the leader, Noboru Ishimaru, she was killed and beheaded by the other 5/5 Club members in order to keep her quiet.

As Killer Peach, she would hunt specific members of the 5/5 club whenever they worked overnight, slashing their bodies with a katana. The last member of the 5/5 club, Noboru Ishimaru, died a half a year ago in which Killer Peach had no knowledge of and continues to hunt him down (which is impossible in the Realm of the Living). According to Ooe, Killer Peach does not attack women since the ones who murdered her were all men. Unlike most of the spirits the investigation team encountered, Killer Peach senses her victims through smell. She can tell whether the person she smells is male or female, but can be disrupted if there was other source of scent masking.

Being connected to the time loop created by Demon Tsukuyomi at the 44th floor of Moon Tower in the special elevator, Killer Peach can reappear again even after defeat. If Akira chooses the right responses to Killer Peach, she will leave her katana behind for him to continue investigating in her stead. By writing her name on the memorial, she can reappear again to kill Masaru Ishimaru, thus freeing the souls of the victims of the Momoi Department Store fire. In addition, fulfilling her son's wish to see her again.

## Appearance

Killer Peach wears a business suit and heels which were torn after she was captured and beheaded by the 5/5 Club. She has four heads that consists of: a monkey, a pheasant, and a dog that reference the Momotarou folktale. The fourth head is her original head that is carried and hanged by the monkey head's mouth. She also carries a katana.
