It's a pretty fair treatment of the traditional children's story of
the boy born from a giant peach who gathered his minions, the bird,
the monkey, and the cat (? rabbit?), journeyed to Devil Island and
vanquished the evildoers who were harassing the population.

Pretty typical Japanese creative send-up of the story, including the
lyrics set to the classics.
