**[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*** I Wanna Be a Witch
**[02:06] Momo**
"I Wanna Be a Witch!"
**[02:13] Mama**
The incident happened out of the blue.
**[02:16] Mama**
Yes, completely of the blue!
**[02:18] Mama**
It began with the caw of a crow.
**[02:22] Mama**
Truly, the call of a crow is frightening!
**[02:24] Mama**
And you can't see crows
very well in the dark.
**[02:28] Mama**
Something you can't see is coming!
**[02:30] Mama**
Things you can't see are very scary!
**[02:35] Momo**
Mama!
**[02:37] Momo**
What's wrong?
**[02:38] Mama**
Something hit the window!
**[02:46] Mama**
You're...
**[02:51] Mama**
Joe! Are you all right?
**[02:53] Chamo**
Nothing can hurt this guy.
**[02:55] Chamo**
He's Brenda's companion, remember?
***SIGN*** Yeah, that girl was really something else!
**[03:10] Lupi**
She certainly was intimidating.
**[03:13] Lupi**
But what's Joe doing at
our house without her?
**[03:19] Joe**
Momo! Help! Brenda's in trouble!
**[03:23] Momo**
Trouble? Sounds like trouble!
***SIGN*** Where exactly are we going in such a hurry?
**[03:38] Momo**
Um...
**[03:41] Momo**
Not sure.
**[03:43] Lupi**
You took off without knowing
where you're going?
**[03:46] Joe**
She's in Wheredaheckizzat City.
**[03:47] Joe**
You flew all that way?!
***SIGN*** This really is sounding like trouble!
**[03:53] King**
Oh, this is trouble, trouble, trouble!
**[03:55] King**
Excuse me, I'll have a double!
**[03:57] King**
Bubble, bubble!
**[03:58] Queen**
Darling, please calm down, would you?
**[04:01] King**
Oh, ow!
**[04:02] King**
I guess I'm calm now.
**[04:05] Queen**
Brenda is Momo's witch friend, I believe.
**[04:08] Queen**
She'd gone off in search of other witches!
**[04:12] King**
That's right, the girl who
could use a bit of magic!
**[04:16] Queen**
I wonder what could have happened to her...
**[04:22] Joe**
Over there! There!
**[04:32] Joe**
Brenda! I'm back!
**[04:36] Joe**
Hah, you missed me!
**[04:47] Lupi**
Spoiling my beauty!
**[04:51] Lupi**
Still, it's tasty!
**[04:53] Momo**
Brenda...
**[04:59] Joe**
Momo, help! Please, stop Brenda!
**[05:02] Momo**
No need to tell me!
**[05:04] Momo**
Brenda! Brenda! Please, calm down!
**[05:19] Momo**
Momo!
**[05:20] Momo**
What do I do? I'm done for!
**[05:27] Momo**
What?!
**[05:28] Momo**
You lost your magic stick?!
**[05:30] Brenda**
Yes. I looked away for just a second
after the show and it vanished!
***SIGN*** You're sure you didn't leave it somewhere?
**[05:38] Brenda**
Of *course* not!
***SIGN*** R-Right...
**[05:41] Chamo**
A hysterical woman is a terrible thing!
**[05:43] Brenda**
What was that?!
**[05:45] Brenda**
Calm down!
**[05:47] Brenda**
As crabby as ever.
***SIGN*** Yep...
**[05:52] Momo**
So, where's your grandma now?
**[05:55] Brenda**
There's a hot spring in a neighboring
town they say is good for back pain...
**[06:03] Brenda**
That stick was a precious item handed
down through my family for generations!
**[06:08] Brenda**
If Grandma finds out, it's
gonna throw her back out!
**[06:12] Brenda**
And...
**[06:13] Momo**
And...?
**[06:14] Brenda**
I can't do my magic show without that stick!
**[06:18] Brenda**
Think of the losses from just one off day!
**[06:21] All**
Ack!
***SIGN*** I smell an unfamiliar scent.
***SIGN*** So it *was* stolen!
**[06:30] Lupi**
There's a thief, then? How scary!
**[06:33] Joe**
Well, finding the culprit comes first!
***SIGN*** Here it is! The trail leads here!
***SIGN*** Then this is the thieves' hideout?!
***SIGN*** They're gonna pay for stealing my stick!
**[06:49] Momo**
Hey, wait!
**[06:51] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun!
**[06:55] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Doll, come alive!
**[07:03] Mary**
Why won't she move?
**[07:07] Brenda**
I found you!
**[07:08] Brenda**
That's my stick!
**[07:10] Brenda**
Give it back!
**[07:11] Mary**
No!
**[07:12] Brenda**
What was that?!
**[07:15] Momo**
Now, now.
**[07:16] Momo**
Hey, it's not nice to take
other people's things.
**[07:20] Momo**
And Brenda really needs it back!
**[07:23] Momo**
Please, give it back!
**[07:25] Mary**
No way!
**[07:26] Joe**
What a spoiled brat!
**[07:28] Momo**
Don't be like that. Please?
**[07:30] Mary**
No!
**[07:31] Momo**
Please, just—
**[07:32] Mary**
No!
***SIGN*** This is getting nowhere.
**[07:35] Chamo**
You said it.
**[07:36] Chamo**
Momo, keep trying!
**[07:38] Brenda**
Shut up!
**[07:46] Brenda**
Why do you want my stick that badly?
**[07:48] Mary**
I thought it would let me cast spells!
**[07:51] Mary**
You're a witch, right?
**[07:53] Brenda**
N-No, I'm just an illusionist...
**[07:56] Mary**
Are not! I saw you!
**[08:04] Brenda**
Th-That was really just
a show! Not real magic!
**[08:08] Mary**
It was real magic! So
please, make me a witch!
**[08:13] Mary**
If you make me a witch,
I'll give your stick back!
**[08:16] Brenda**
What do we do, Momo?
**[08:19] Dad**
I'm back, Mary!
**[08:21] Dad**
Oh? Friends of yours?
**[08:23] Mary**
Papa!
**[08:24] Mary**
Papa, she's a real witch!
**[08:27] Brenda**
Hey, there!
**[08:28] Momo**
Sorry to intrude...
**[08:33] Dad**
I'm sorry about all the trouble Mary caused.
**[08:36] Momo**
N-Not at all...
**[08:39] Dad**
Hold on just a minute.
**[08:41] Dad**
I'll make us some tea.
**[08:43] Momo**
There's really no need—
**[08:47] Lupi**
What do we do?
**[08:50] Brenda**
What in the world are we doing here?
**[08:52] Momo**
Hey, it's okay.
**[08:53] Momo**
We found the stick, and
became friends with Mary—
**[08:59] Mary**
Papa!
**[09:01] Dad**
I-I'm fine.
**[09:03] Dad**
I'm making some nice tea
for everyone right now!
**[09:07] Mary**
Papa's never even made tea before.
**[09:10] Mary**
If only Mama were here...
**[09:11] Momo**
Where's your mama?
**[09:13] Mary**
She had a fight with Papa and left.
**[09:16] Mary**
Papa wants her to come back, too...
**[09:24] Mary**
Please, Miss Witch! Make me a witch!
**[09:27] Mary**
Then I can use magic to find Mama!
**[09:30] Mary**
I dunno...
**[09:32] Momo**
Brenda, why don't we teach her?
**[09:35] Brenda**
I'll try, but she can't use
magic without the innate talent!
**[09:40] Momo**
Oh? You don't know that.
**[09:43] Momo**
Everyone has a mysterious power inside them!
**[09:45] Momo**
With enough belief, I think she'll
be able to use magic just fine!
**[09:49] Mary**
Are you a witch too?
**[09:51] Momo**
Well, not quite... but
something like it, I guess!
**[09:57] Mary**
That's great!
**[09:59] Momo**
Hey, Brenda, why not just teach her?
**[10:02] Brenda**
If you insist...
**[10:06] Brenda**
Given your special circumstances,
I'll give you classes at a discount!
**[10:11] Momo**
Sheesh, she hasn't changed a bit!

Magic crystal ball that only shows truth!
**[10:30] Brenda**
Reveal to me that which I seek!
**[10:35] All**
Hey, it's showing something!
**[10:36] All**
Awesome!
**[10:37] All**
Let me see!
**[10:39] All**
Don't hog it!
**[10:47] Brenda**
I told you to keep quiet!
**[10:49] Momo**
Very sorry.
**[10:51] Momo**
But the city shown in the crystal ball...
**[10:54] Momo**
That must be where Mary's mom is!
**[10:57] Mary**
Wow! If I become a witch,
can I do this stuff too?!
**[11:01] Brenda**
Of course! So let's teach
you the basics first.
**[11:05] Brenda**
But becoming a witch means going
through grueling training!
**[11:09] Brenda**
Yes, Teacher!
**[11:11] Momo**
She's really getting into it.
**[11:15] Brenda**
We'll start with a spell
to make flowers grow!
**[11:20] Brenda**
Pipirun! Paparun! Flowers, bloom!
**[11:31] Brenda**
Wow! Can I do that too?
**[11:33] Brenda**
Of course!
**[11:34] Brenda**
Here, take it!
**[11:38] Mary**
Thank you!
**[11:40] Brenda**
I made it for you. It should work just fine!
**[11:43] Mary**
Okay!
**[11:45] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Flowers, bloom!
**[11:54] Mary**
*Okay...*
**[11:55] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Flowers, bloom!
**[12:00] Momo**
My heart is pounding!
**[12:02] Brenda**
I think Mary might just become a real witch!
**[12:06] Brenda**
After all, back in the day,
anyone could use magic!
**[12:10] Momo**
Yeah, back when there were
dreamlands all over the world,
**[12:10] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Flowers, bloom!
**[12:13] Momo**
mysterious things were the norm!
**[12:16] Momo**
I don't think that power's
all gone yet. I believe it!
**[12:21] Brenda**
Right. We've got a witch
right here, after all!
***SIGN*** But Momo, she's never gonna find her mother at this rate...
**[12:30] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Flowers, bloom!
**[12:41] Mary**
Teacher! It's not working!
**[12:43] Momo**
Oh, dear. You can't say no
to a sad or angry child.
**[12:47] Momo**
In that case...
**[12:49] Momo**
Momo!
**[12:50] Momo**
I'm gonna try *my* magic!
**[12:55] Joe**
C'mon, don't cry!
**[13:01] Joe**
Hey, the sad child is smiling again!
**[13:05] Brenda**
Momo?
**[13:09] Momo**
Parariru Parariru Doririnpa!
**[13:12] Momo**
Tiaran Tianan Maririnpa!
**[13:15] Momo**
Become a policewoman with a Minky touch!
**[13:45] Momo**
How do I look?
**[13:46] Chamo**
Awesome!
**[13:47] Momo**
It's the police's job to find missing people.
**[13:49] Momo**
Let's go, animal friends!
**[13:54] Momo**
Have you seen this woman?
**[13:57] Woman**
I'm afraid not.
**[13:59] Man**
No clue.
**[14:00] Man**
Never seen her.
**[14:14] Lupi**
It's no use. Not a single clue!
***SIGN*** It's not that easy to find someone!
**[14:19] Momo**
I'll never give up.
**[14:21] Momo**
Mary's working her hardest, after all!
**[14:27] Man**
No one's watching. I can just take it!
**[14:31] Man**
Hey! P-Police?
**[14:33] Momo**
Hey, have you seen this—
**[14:36] Man**
I'm sorry. I swear I didn't mean it.
**[14:38] Man**
From now on, I'll always report
lost property to the police!
***SIGN*** Looks like he got the wrong idea.
**[14:48] Police**
Thanks for your hard work.
**[14:52] Momo**
Oh, right.
**[14:52] Momo**
Excuse me, I have a question.
**[14:55] Momo**
Have you seen this woman?
**[14:56] Police**
Oh, that woman?
**[14:58] Police**
I think she just moved
into that apartment there.
**[15:04] Momo**
She's here!
**[15:05] Chamo**
We should've just asked at the station first!
**[15:08] Momo**
Guess so.
**[15:14] Momo**
That's odd. They're out?
**[15:16] Woman**
Oh, she went out just a minute ago.
**[15:19] Woman**
Oh? Where'd she go?
**[15:21] Woman**
She said she was going home to the
country, so maybe the station?
**[15:25] Momo**
Oh, no!
**[15:30] Momo**
Cookbook, Chamo, you go to the station!
**[15:32] Momo**
Lupipi, you tell Brenda about this!
**[15:34] Lupi**
What will you do?!
**[15:35] Momo**
I'm gonna fetch Mary's father!
**[15:38] Trio**
Right!
**[15:43] Momo**
I'm borrowing this! It's an emergency!
**[15:46] Woman**
Y-Yes, of course...
**[15:53] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun!
***SIGN*** She doesn't give up, does she?
**[15:56] Brenda**
Why not take a break!
**[15:57] Mary**
No! I've gotta become a witch like you, fast!
**[16:01] Brenda**
To find your mother?
**[16:03] Brenda**
Momo's already looking for her.
**[16:05] Mary**
No, I've wanted to be a witch since forever!
**[16:08] Mary**
Everyone says witches aren't
real, but I believe they are!
**[16:13] Mary**
Mary...
**[16:14] Lupi**
Emergency!
**[16:17] Brenda**
Lupipi!
**[16:18] Lupi**
Mary's mother is...
**[16:22] Joe**
Hey, hey, Brenda...
**[16:24] Joe**
You're not gonna ride your
broom there, are you?
**[16:26] Joe**
You can only fly for three minutes!
**[16:28] Brenda**
It's the only way I'll make it!
**[16:30] Brenda**
With enough belief, I can do it...
**[16:31] Brenda**
I'm sure of it!
**[16:39] Joe**
Stay calm, Brenda!
**[16:51] Mary**
We're flying! You're awesome, Teacher!
**[16:54] Brenda**
Here we go! Hold on tight!
**[16:56] Brenda**
Right!
**[17:04] Mom**
I suppose this is goodbye to this city.
**[17:07] Mom**
I'm sorry, Mary.
**[17:08] Mom**
Your mother's going off on her own.
**[17:11] Chamo**
We found her!
***SIGN*** Oh, no! We've got to stop her!
**[17:15] Mom**
I didn't even leave the neighborhood,
but he didn't look for me.
**[17:19] Mom**
He doesn't love me anymore.
**[17:22] Mom**
I'm going to move into the country
and live the lonely life of a hermit!
**[17:30] Mom**
Oh? My bag...
**[17:33] Chamo**
Come and get it!
**[17:35] Momo**
Open up! Open up! Open up now!
**[17:37] Dad**
Right, right... coming!
**[17:46] Dad**
Did I do something wrong?
**[17:48] Momo**
I'll explain later!
**[17:50] Mom**
Come back here, you!
**[17:52] Chamo**
No way!
**[17:57] Chamo**
A train's coming!
**[18:00] Mom**
Got it!
***SIGN*** Darn it!
**[18:06] Joe**
See? You're out of time!
**[18:08] Joe**
You're over the weight limit, too!
**[18:11] Brenda**
Hang in there, darn it!
**[18:12] Mary**
Teacher!
**[18:13] Brenda**
Believe in me! I'll make sure
you see your mother again!
**[18:20] Mom**
No more mischief, now.
***SIGN*** The worst possible situation! Total despair!
**[18:32] Momo**
C'mon, get in!
**[18:33] Both**
Momo!
**[18:48] Brenda**
That's it!
**[18:49] Mary**
Mama!
**[18:50] Brenda**
Let's go!
**[18:54] Mary**
Mama!
**[18:57] Mary**
Mama!
**[19:00] Mary**
Mama!
**[19:03] Momo**
Mary!
**[19:05] Dad**
Hey!
**[19:07] Joe**
Brenda! What are you doing?
**[19:09] Brenda**
This!
**[19:10] Brenda**
Pipirun! Paparun!
**[19:29] Mary**
Teacher!
**[19:30] Brenda**
Yeah... it's too heavy!
**[19:32] Chamo**
We've gotta stop the train, Momo!
**[19:34] Momo**
Okay!
***SIGN*** What now, Momo?
**[19:48] Momo**
If I aim for that part...
***SIGN*** What a reckless thing to do!
**[20:05] Brenda**
Now!
**[20:07] Brenda**
Pipirun! Paparun!
**[20:27] Mary**
Mama!
**[20:28] Mom**
Mary!
**[20:28] Mary**
Mama!
**[20:44] Chamo**
Isn't that nice?
**[20:45] Momo**
Yeah!
**[20:51] Momo**
Oh, dear!
**[20:52] Momo**
We caused a lot of trouble!
**[20:54] Brenda**
All right, ladies and gentlemen!
**[20:56] Brenda**
We're currently holding a magic
show in Wheredaheckizzat City.
**[21:01] Brenda**
That was just a sample of my tricks!
**[21:03] Brenda**
Awesome, right?
**[21:05] Brenda**
Make sure you come to watch us, now!
**[21:07] Crowd**
Wow! Amazing!
**[21:15] Brenda**
She's something else!
***SIGN*** An enterprising spirit like no other!
**[21:21] King**
It's all good, it's all good!
**[21:22] King**
A happy ending!
**[21:23] Queen**
Do you think Marinarsa will
ever return to the surface
**[21:27] Queen**
so we can live with Momo once more?
**[21:30] King**
I bet so! Like Momo says, all
who believe will be saved!
**[21:39] Brenda**
Thank you, Momo.
**[21:40] Momo**
Contact me if anything else comes up.
**[21:42] Brenda**
Sure!
**[21:43] Brenda**
It's a shame, though.
**[21:44] Brenda**
After all my instructing, Mary
never made it to witchhood.
***SIGN*** Well, it's probably not possible for a normal human.
**[21:53] Momo**
I dunno about that.
**[21:55] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun!
**[21:58] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Bloom, flowers!
**[22:02] Mary**
Pipirun! Paparun! Bloom, flowers!
**[22:08] Mary**
I'm gonna become a great
witch like them someday!
**[22:12] Mom**
Mary! Snack time!
**[22:14] Mary**
Coming!
**[22:27] Momo**
* I think the mysterious power of*
* dreams is out there everywhere!*
**[22:31] Momo**
*Even where you are!*
