ARC received from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This new adventure manga from the creator of Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid draws on the famous tale of the peach boy, Momotaro, creating a world where Momotaro (now Mikoto) crossed the sea to satisfy his thirst for ogre blood. He meets a princess, Saltherine, who wishes to see the world, and when she sets off to travel she learns that not all monsters are evil... and not all humans are what they seem— including herself!

This was a nice start to what I hope will be an action-packed, violently fun series. I wasn't the biggest fan of the art style and the pacing, in the beginning, seemed rush, but I did like a few of the tropes enough to finish! I love a good supportive dad and a nice but violent stranger, and I'm looking forward to Sally exploring the world and herself.
