Ichiba Tsūshō (1737-1812) was a famous writer of kibyōshi in his times but he has not been studied enthusiastically until now. There are many kibyōshi relating to the folk tale of Momotarō. This paper focuses on the later developments of kibyōshi about Momotarō, discussing four works by two writers, Tsūshō and Hōseidō Kisanji (1735- 1813). Kisanji's Momotarō gojitu banashi and Momotarō nido no kake have many references to kabuki drama and to the pleasure quarters of Yoshiwara, respectively. This means that Kisanji's works retell Momotarō's story in the up-to-date style of that time. On the other hand, Tsūshō's Momotarō genpuku sugata and Genkin saru ga mochi describe the worlds of demons (oni) and characteristics of the animals that appear in Momotarō's tale respectively. Moreover, these stories made use of common sayings and popular believes about demons, monkeys and dogs, revealing the author's sensibility of observation. Tsūshō was good at observation of characters and that therefore, studying Tsūshō's works would bring a greater understanding of the genre of kibyōshi.
