Fairy Princess
**[00:06] Sign**
Minky Momo
**[01:36] Narrator**
Long, long ago...
**[01:38] Narrator**
In a "long, long ago" recent enough that
it could very well seem like tomorrow...
**[01:43] Narrator**
In a universe over there, in an Earth
over there, in a city over there,
**[01:47] Narrator**
there lived a girl.
**[01:50] Narrator**
She looked like a completely normal
girl of the kind you'd find anywhere.
**[01:54] Narrator**
The one difference was...
**[01:56] Narrator**
The girl could use magic to
transform into a grown-up!
**[02:00] Narrator**
They called her Minky Momo.
***SIGN*** Cinderella Panic
**[02:07] Momo**
"Cinderella Panic."
**[02:23] Papa**
You look beautiful, dear.
**[02:25] Mama**
And you're a true dandy, dear.
**[02:28] Mama**
Dear...
**[02:29] Mama**
Dear...
**[02:33] Chamo**
Oh, they're at it again.
***SIGN*** They never cool off, do they?
***SIGN*** But they somehow seem even more intense than usual!
***SIGN*** Yeah.
***SIGN*** Papa, Mama, what's up?
***SIGN*** What are you all dolled up for?
**[02:48] Papa**
We've been invited to a welcome party for
the prince of the nation of Wherezit!
**[02:52] Papa**
The prince of the nation of Wherezit?
**[02:55] Papa**
You didn't know? The prince of the nation
of Wherezit is in town right now!
**[03:00] Momo**
I had no idea.
**[03:01] Momo**
But now that I know, I
can't just stand around!
**[03:04] Momo**
I gotta get dressed up too!
**[03:06] Papa**
Ah, Momo.
**[03:07] Papa**
This is a serious grown-up party.
**[03:11] Papa**
We'll be staying out quite late.
**[03:13] Papa**
So...
**[03:15] Papa**
So...?
**[03:16] Papa**
Bye, Momo!
**[03:18] Papa**
Watch the house, would you?
**[03:20] Trio**
Have a good time!
**[03:23] Momo**
Shucks. Stuck at home, huh?
**[03:26] Momo**
"And then Cinderella danced
with the prince..."
**[03:32] Momo**
A picture book's not the same!
**[03:34] Momo**
What do you think the party's like?
**[03:39] Chamo**
Beautiful music...
**[03:42] Lupi**
Extravagant dresses...
***SIGN*** And more food than you could ever eat...
**[03:50] Momo**
You think there's cake, too?
**[03:52] Lupi**
Oh, of course!
**[03:54] Lupi**
And it's so sweet and delicious, it
would make your cheeks melt away!
**[03:57] Momo**
My cheeks *do* need a diet!
**[03:59] Chamo**
Momo, in that case...
**[04:01] Momo**
Yeah! It's time to get moving!
**[04:09] King**
Lucky, lucky!
**[04:11] King**
I wanna go too, la-dee-da.
**[04:13] Queen**
Yes... the new year's
party at Otohime's Palace.
**[04:17] Queen**
That was the last party we went to.
**[04:19] King**
The sea bream and the flounder
danced in celebration...
**[04:21] King**
I danced with them!
**[04:23] Queen**
Momo is working hard right now.
**[04:26] Queen**
I'm sure that someday, Marinarsa
will rise up from the sea floor,
**[04:30] Queen**
and we'll be able to hold
parties every day again.
**[04:33] Queen**
Right, darling?
**[04:34] King**
Dan-dan-dan! La-dee-da!
Dan-dan-dan! La-dee-da!
**[04:39] Momo**
I'm coming in!
**[04:44] Momo**
Wow!
**[04:45] Momo**
This is the real deal.
**[04:46] Man**
Hold it!
**[04:48] Man**
And just who are you?
**[04:50] Momo**
Oh, don't worry about that.
**[04:52] Momo**
I'm just dropping in at the party.
**[04:53] Man**
No, no! This isn't an amusement park.
**[04:56] Man**
Go on. Go home, child!
**[05:01] Momo**
Sheesh...
**[05:03] Chamo**
What's the deal? We can't
party if they don't let us in!
**[05:08] Momo**
But if children can't go in, I
just have to become a grown-up!
**[05:13] Momo**
Parariru Parariru Doririnpa!
**[05:16] Momo**
Tiaran Tianan Maririnpa!
**[05:19] Momo**
Since it's a party, become
Cinderella with a Minky touch!
**[05:50] Momo**
How do I look?
**[05:51] Lupi**
Lovely! You look perfect from any angle!
***SIGN*** A total 180 from your usual look.
**[05:57] Chamo**
Yeah, yeah!
**[05:58] Momo**
Why, you...
**[05:59] Momo**
Now, let's go, everyone!
**[06:02] Both**
Okay...
**[06:04] Momo**
Pardon me.
**[06:05] Man**
Hold it right there.
**[06:07] Man**
And what do you want?
**[06:10] Momo**
Can't you tell from my outfit?
**[06:13] Momo**
I'm clearly going to the party.
**[06:15] Man**
That's very true.
**[06:17] Man**
But I fear I must ask to see your invitation.
**[06:20] Momo**
Huh? Invitation.
**[06:22] Man**
Yes. Your invitation.
**[06:24] Man**
We cannot allow anyone to
enter without an invitation.
**[06:31] Lupi**
So I suppose we can't go in the front way.
**[06:34] Momo**
It's okie-dokie.
**[06:35] Momo**
There's got to be a back entrance!
**[06:38] Momo**
There, a back entrance!
**[06:41] Momo**
See?
**[06:50] Leon**
Help me! Help!
**[06:53] Lupi**
Oh, no! It must be a kidnapping!
**[06:56] Momo**
Okay...
**[06:59] Momo**
Chant abridged!
**[07:01] Momo**
Keep my appearance the same,
but become a fighting champion!
**[07:05] Momo**
Stop that right now!
**[07:14] Momo**
What are grown men doing,
ganging up on a child?
**[07:18] Man**
Obviously, we're getting
him to attend the party.
**[07:21] Momo**
The party?
**[07:23] Leon**
No way!
**[07:23] Man**
C'mon, don't be so headstrong.
**[07:26] Man**
Just come along!
**[07:28] Lupi**
What's going on?
**[07:31] Lupi**
Momo!
**[07:34] Momo**
What are you doing?
**[07:36] Man**
Your Highness!
**[07:37] Man**
Are you all right?
**[07:39] Man**
Were you hurt, Your Highness?
**[07:40] Momo**
Highness?
**[07:42] Butler**
Yes.
**[07:44] Butler**
This boy is Leonheim, Prince of Wherezit.
**[07:50] Leon**
Hey, I've changed my mind.
**[07:52] Leon**
I'm going to the party.
**[07:54] Butler**
Are you really?
**[07:56] Leon**
Yes. But on one condition...
**[07:59] Butler**
What condition would that be?
**[08:03] Leon**
I like this girl! Make her my new governess!
**[08:16] Butler**
Needless to say, Prince Leon is the
prince of the nation of Wherezit.
**[08:20] Butler**
Still, just because he likes someone doesn't
mean we can make them his governess.
**[08:26] Momo**
Understandable.
**[08:27] Butler**
Having served the Wherezit
Royal Family for fifty years,
**[08:29] Butler**
I, Wilhelm Roserius, will
judge your suitability!
**[08:33] Momo**
R-Right...
**[08:35] Butler**
And let me warn you, my standards for a
governess are even higher than for a wife.
**[08:39] Butler**
Far, far higher!
**[08:42] Butler**
You must excel in childcare skills,
academic history, and breeding.
**[08:45] Momo**
Okay, I get it.
**[08:47] Butler**
Then let me start by asking your name.
**[08:51] Momo**
My name is Minky Mo—
**[08:55] Momo**
I fear I cannot give my name
to someone I've only just met.
**[08:59] Butler**
You pass.
**[09:02] Butler**
Someone who would give their
name trivially to a stranger is
**[09:06] Butler**
unfit to be the prince's governess!
**[09:08] Butler**
You pass.
**[09:10] Momo**
Um... but... I don't really
wanna be a governess...
**[09:16] Butler**
You pass!
**[09:17] Butler**
Such grace and reserved demeanor...
**[09:20] Butler**
You're an ideal governess!
**[09:22] Butler**
You pass! You pass!
**[09:29] Leon**
Congratulations! You did it!
**[09:31] Momo**
You're not listening! I told you,
I don't wanna be a governess!
**[09:38] Butler**
Please, at least try. You're our 100th one!
**[09:42] Momo**
Your 100th what?
**[09:43] Butler**
Governess for Prince Leon!
**[09:46] Momo**
What happened to the other 99?
**[09:48] Butler**
They all ran away!
**[09:50] Momo**
Why?
**[09:50] Butler**
Frogs and snakes leap from your bag!
**[09:54] Butler**
You open the door and a bucket
of water falls on you!
**[09:57] Butler**
You sit in a chair and a bomb goes off!
**[10:01] Leon**
They're not bombs! They're firecrackers!
**[10:04] Butler**
If you put fifty together,
they're bomb enough for me!
**[10:08] Momo**
This is ridiculous!
**[10:09] Momo**
I can't handle this!
**[10:10] Butler**
There's more to it than that!
**[10:12] Butler**
Enough already!
**[10:14] Butler**
There's an assassin trying
to kill the prince.
**[10:16] Butler**
I believe they've infiltrated the party!
**[10:19] Momo**
An assassin?
**[10:20] Butler**
Yes. So a strong governess like you would
be a huge help! Two birds with one stone!
**[10:26] Momo**
That's even more absurd!
**[10:28] Leon**
Butler!
**[10:29] Leon**
If that woman becomes my governess,
I'll do anything you tell me!
**[10:32] Butler**
Don't let her escape! After her!
**[10:36] Momo**
Why should I be governess to some child?!
**[10:38] Butler**
Ma'am! Please wait, ma'am!
**[10:42] Momo**
Oh, no!
**[10:43] Butler**
Ma'am!
**[10:55] Man**
There!
**[10:59] Momo**
Hello!
**[11:00] Man**
Oh, it's just a kid.
**[11:03] Man**
Hey, child.
**[11:04] Man**
Did you see a young woman come this way?
**[11:07] Momo**
Yes, I did!
**[11:09] Momo**
A curvy, elegant, cute, beautiful lady,
like the kind of woman I might be someday?
**[11:16] Leon**
Excuse me. An ugly duckling like you
could never grow into a beauty like her!
**[11:22] Momo**
What was that?!
**[11:24] Butler**
Now, now.
**[11:25] Butler**
Where did the lady go, then?
**[11:27] Momo**
Um... that way, I guess?
**[11:29] Butler**
Okay. After her, everyone!
***SIGN*** Good grief.
**[11:42] Chamo**
I wonder where the party is.
**[11:44] Momo**
The place is so big, I
can't tell my way around.
**[11:56] Momo**
Stubborn jerks.
**[11:59] Rein**
Playing hide and seek?
**[12:01] Momo**
Oh, er... well...
**[12:03] Momo**
We came for the party and got lost.
**[12:05] Rein**
Really?
**[12:06] Rein**
Come with me. I'll show you around.
**[12:08] Momo**
S-Sure!
**[12:10] Sign**
Fairy Princess
**[12:10] Sign**
Minky Momo
**[12:15] Sign**
Fairy Princess
**[12:15] Sign**
Minky Momo
**[12:16] Sign**
Fairy Princess
**[12:16] Sign**
Minky Momo
**[12:23] Momo**
Yes! So this is the party!
**[12:29] Rein**
I'd love to show you around,
but I have things to get to.
**[12:33] Rein**
I'm afraid this is goodbye. See you!
**[12:40] Lupi**
Momo! Look at that!
**[12:46] Momo**
I'm so hungry!
**[12:47] Chamo**
So am I!
***SIGN*** Me, too!
**[12:50] Momo**
Look at it all! I don't even
know what to eat first!
**[12:54] Papa**
This way, dear.
**[12:57] Papa**
Look, dear! Doesn't it all look delicious?
**[13:00] Mama**
It really does!
**[13:01] Mama**
What would Momo say if she saw it?
**[13:03] Papa**
Probably "I don't know what to eat first!"
**[13:07] Momo**
He got me.
**[13:08] Mama**
These look good, too!
**[13:10] Papa**
Delicious! And this one...
**[13:13] Mama**
Oh, this is great!
**[13:15] Momo**
I can't take it anymore.
**[13:17] Momo**
Okay...
**[13:22] Papa**
Eh?
**[13:23] Papa**
We did leave Momo at home, didn't we?
**[13:26] Mama**
Of course we did!
**[13:28] Mama**
Oh, this is wonderful!
**[13:32] Papa**
Yeah, of course she's not here.
**[13:34] Momo**
And-a-one! And-a-two!
**[13:40] Mama**
Look, cake! They all look delicious!
**[13:43] Momo**
Cake?!
**[13:47] Mama**
Help yourself. You can go first.
**[13:49] Momo**
Really? That's such a sweet offer...
**[13:52] Momo**
So I'll have some sweet cake.
**[13:53] Man**
We found the governess!
**[13:56] Momo**
Oh, no!
**[13:58] Momo**
Ma'am!
**[14:00] Momo**
Darn it, I wanted cake!
**[14:03] Momo**
Ma'am!
**[14:08] Trio**
Momo!
**[14:09] Lupi**
Are you okay?
**[14:10] Momo**
This is less like a party
and more like a track meet.
**[14:14] Cook**
Should we take a break somewhere?
**[14:17] Chamo**
But where?
**[14:19] Lupi**
I see just the place!
**[14:20] Lupi**
Let's have a relaxing time on the water!
**[14:31] Momo**
Cookbook! Are you okay?
**[14:35] Cook**
I think so...
**[14:38] Momo**
We should be okie-dokie here, right?
**[14:41] Lupi**
I think we might not be!
**[14:43] Momo**
What?
**[15:02] Momo**
Is there some kind of event here?
**[15:04] Mama**
The prince invited us to
a tea party on his yacht.
**[15:08] Momo**
The prince?
**[15:09] Momo**
That's not good...
**[15:10] Butler**
Ma'am!
**[15:13] Butler**
Ma'am!
**[15:14] Momo**
Not good!
**[15:15] Momo**
Gotta run!
**[15:17] Butler**
Ma'am!
**[15:19] Butler**
Ma'am!
**[15:21] Momo**
Hello!
**[15:23] Leon**
Not you again!
**[15:24] Leon**
Hey, have you seen that lady?
**[15:25] Momo**
Non, non! No one's been here.
**[15:28] Butler**
That can't be true. I saw her!
**[15:31] Butler**
She's on this ship for sure!
**[15:33] Butler**
Search, everyone!
**[15:35] Man**
Let's see...
**[15:40] Mama**
What's that all about?
**[15:42] Papa**
No idea.
**[15:44] Man**
She's not here either, Highness.
**[15:47] Man**
Maybe over there?
**[15:48] Cap**
Your Highness? Is the
prince on board already?
**[15:52] Cap**
I suppose I'll take us out.
**[15:54] Cap**
Setting out! Activate engines!
**[15:58] Momo**
Sheesh, they're so persistent.
***SIGN*** But now your parents and the prince are all on the boat.
**[16:05] Chamo**
Which means...
**[16:06] Lupi**
Nothing left to worry about!
**[16:09] Momo**
I get to enjoy the party!
**[16:12] Man**
Hey, we set the bombs.
**[16:13] Man**
Yeah. In one hour, when the tea
party's in full swing, boom!
**[16:18] Momo**
Boom?!
**[16:20] Men**
Who's there?
**[16:24] Men**
Get back here!
**[16:30] Men**
You heard us, didn't you?
**[16:32] Momo**
Nope, nope! I didn't hear anything!
**[16:34] Man**
Then why did you say "boom"?
***SIGN*** Momo. That's the guy who stepped on me!
**[16:42] Momo**
The guy from the boat!
**[16:43] Man**
Now that you know, I can't let you live.
**[16:48] Man**
Who's there?!
**[16:51] Man**
Curse you!
**[16:58] Momo**
Wow!
**[16:59] Rein**
Are you all right?
**[17:01] Momo**
Yes...
**[17:01] Man**
Your Highness! What's going on?
**[17:04] Rein**
These are the men trying to kill me.
**[17:07] Momo**
"Your Highness"? Who's Prince Leon, then?
**[17:10] Rein**
Oh, you know Leon?
**[17:12] Rein**
I'm Leon's brother, Reinhardt.
**[17:14] Momo**
His brother?
**[17:16] Momo**
That's right... the boat!
The boat is in danger!
**[17:27] Man**
No one got off the boat except that one girl.
**[17:30] Butler**
Strange. I couldn't find her anywhere.
**[17:39] Momo**
What are you going to do?
**[17:41] Rein**
I have to remove the bomb's timer somehow.
**[17:44] Momo**
I'll go with you!
**[17:45] Rein**
You?!
**[17:46] Momo**
N-No, not me...
**[17:48] Momo**
A bomb disposal expert I
know who was at the party.
**[17:52] Momo**
I'll go call her!
**[17:56] Momo**
And-a-one! And-a-two!
**[18:00] Momo**
Sorry for the wait.
**[18:01] Momo**
I heard the whole story!
**[18:03] Momo**
Leave this to me.
**[18:04] Momo**
I'm a bomb disposal professional.
**[18:07] Momo**
I can disarm any bomb, lickety-split!
**[18:11] Rein**
Thanks.
**[18:16] Momo**
May I ask you a question?
**[18:17] Rein**
Sure.
**[18:18] Momo**
Why are they trying to kill you?
**[18:20] Rein**
Someone thinks that if they get rid of me,
**[18:23] Rein**
Wherezit will be theirs for the taking.
**[18:25] Momo**
It must be hard being a prince.
**[18:29] King**
I used to be a prince myself.
**[18:32] King**
I understand your pain so well!
**[18:35] Queen**
I don't understand your pain, but
I understand Momo's very well!
**[18:39] King**
Dee-da?!
**[18:40] Queen**
Look, they're on the ship!
**[18:47] Momo**
This is where they'd set the bomb.
**[18:51] Momo**
There it is!
**[18:52] Momo**
Under there.
**[18:54] Rein**
Can you get it?
**[18:55] Momo**
It's not easy to reach...
**[19:01] Papa**
Isn't it wonderful?
**[19:02] Mama**
Yes, it's like a honeymoon.
**[19:09] Momo**
Got it!
**[19:12] Momo**
There's only 25 seconds left!
**[19:14] Momo**
We won't make it!
**[19:22] Momo**
Clear the way, all!
**[19:46] Leon**
I did it!
**[19:48] Momo**
You little brat!
**[19:50] Leon**
Hey! What are you doing?!
**[19:51] Momo**
Do you understand how much
you've put me through?
**[19:57] Leon**
I'm sorry! I was bad!
I'll be good from now on!
**[20:04] Momo**
Glad to hear it.
**[20:07] Leon**
I'm not gonna turn good just like that!
**[20:26] Queen**
Thank goodness everyone's safe.
**[20:28] King**
But I want to dance, too...
**[20:30] King**
Your hand, milady.
**[20:32] Queen**
My!
**[20:33] King**
Hup!
**[20:45] Leon**
No fair, Big Brother!
**[20:46] Leon**
I saw her first!
**[20:51] Lupi**
Oh! Her parents are heading home!
**[20:55] Rein**
You haven't told me your name.
**[20:57] Momo**
Oh, well, it's...
**[21:03] Momo**
Oh, it's Cinderella!
**[21:04] Momo**
So long!
**[21:06] Rein**
Cinderella?
**[21:07] Rein**
Wait!
**[21:20] Lupi**
Momo, hurry!
**[21:30] Rein**
Cinderella...
**[21:33] Rein**
I won't let you remain a fairy tale.
**[21:42] Mama**
Coming!
**[21:43] Butler**
We're looking for the woman
who fits this slipper.
**[21:47] Papa**
Is it some kind of contest?
**[21:50] Papa**
Dear, try it on!
**[21:51] Mama**
Okay!
**[21:56] Butler**
You pass!
**[21:59] Butler**
You're Prince Reinhardt's ideal bride!
**[22:04] Papa**
