    Long, long ago...
[01:39] Narrator
    In a "long, long ago" recent enough that
    it could very well seem like tomorrow...
[01:44] Narrator
    A girl came from a dreamland
    far beneath the ocean.
[01:49] Narrator
    Her goal was supposed to be
    to restore the lost dreams
[01:54] Narrator
    to the people of the surface...
[01:57] Narrator
    But would it work out?
[02:00] Narrator
    Oh, right! And her name was Minky Momo!

[02:28] VP
    We have it, Mr. Principal.
[02:33] Principal
    These are our school's failures
    and problem children, eh?
[02:40] Principal
    I don't know what their problems are, but
    their presence is definitely a problem.
[02:45] Momo
    Heading out!
[02:49] Mama
    Momo! Where are you going?
[02:51] Momo
    School, of course!
[02:56] Papa
    Oh? Did Momo always go to school?
[03:00] Mama
    Well, she's the right age for it,
    so I'm sure she goes to school.
[03:04] Papa
    Well, that makes sense.
[03:07] Papa
    What? But isn't today Sunday?
[03:11] Mama
    Eh?
[03:20] Momo
    It's closed.
SIGN    They usually don't have school on Sundays, do they?
[03:24] Momo
    Aw, they can't do that!
    I actually came for once!
[03:28] Chamo
    But when it's Sunday, it's
    Sunday no matter where you are!
[03:33] Momo
    But this letter from the
    school told me to come today!
[03:38] Lupi
    I've heard of countries that take two
    days off a week, but this one's strange!
[03:49] Kid
    You're late, failure!
[03:51] Momo
    Failure? Who are you talking to?
[03:54] Kid
    You got the letter too, right?
[03:55] Kid
    Everyone coming to school
    on Sunday is a failure.
[03:59] Kid
    That includes me, of course.
[04:11] Kid
    See ya!
[04:15] Momo
    What was his problem?
[04:16] Kid
    Hey, señorita.
[04:19] Kid
    you came to school as well?
[04:21] Kid
    You'd better hurry, or you'll
    be late to failure class.
[04:25] Momo
    Failure class?
[04:38] Momo
    Is this everyone?
[04:40] Kid
    Seems like.
[04:41] Kid
    Sit anywhere you like.
[05:06] Teacher
    One, two, three, four, five.
[05:08] Teacher
    Good. Even failures can
    be punctual, it seems.
[05:12] Kid
    We didn't wanna be here, y'know.
[05:15] Teacher
    Don't you talk back to me!
[05:17] Teacher
    You don't seem to understand
    the reason why you're here.
[05:20] Teacher
    No. 1, you have the worst
    grades in your class!
[05:24] 1
    How could I get good grades
    with such a lousy teacher?
[05:28] Teacher
    What was that?!
[05:29] 2
    Oh, my God!
[05:31] 2
    Today's going to be a very
    bad day for you, my teacher.
[05:34] 2
    It's a conjunction of many bad omens!
[05:37] 2
    Be careful while walking in the dark.
[05:40] Teacher
    I'm going to be careful even during the day.
[05:42] Teacher
    I have to look after you
    troublemakers, after all.
[05:45] Teacher
    You hear me? Our prestigious school
    doesn't need failures like you!
[05:51] Momo
    Excuse me!
[05:52] Teacher
    What is it, No. 5?
[05:54] Momo
    No. 5?
[05:55] Momo
    My name isn't 5! It's Momo!
[05:59] Teacher
    Momo? Like a peach?
[06:01] Teacher
    Well, you're anything but
    a peach while you're here!
[06:04] Teacher
    "Failure No. 5" is good enough for you.
[06:07] Momo
    Why are you calling me a failure?
[06:10] Teacher
    Why do you think? Have you
    even come to school before?
[06:15] Momo
    Um... good question, actually.
SIGN    You don't even remember?
[06:19] Lupi
    She forgot.
[06:21] Chamo
    School stories aren't en vogue these days.
[06:23] Teacher
    According to this attendance list,
    you're a troublesome truant!
[06:28] Momo
    Huh?!
[06:29] Momo
    I'm not a truant!
[06:31] Momo
    I just didn't come to school
    because it didn't seem like fun!
[06:34] Teacher
    That's what a truant is!
[06:37] Teacher
    But you can't skip out on
    today's special failure class!
[06:40] Teacher
    If you Failures No. 1 through 5 can't pass
    this test, you'll be expelled immediately!
[06:46] Teacher
    That's the rule in this school.
[06:49] 1
    You can't do that!
[06:51] 3
    P-Please, my mother will be so angry!
[06:54] Teacher
    If you can't do it, you'll
    be expelled on the spot.
[07:02] Teacher
    You have one hour.
[07:04] Teacher
    Give it your best, I suppose.
[07:09] 1
    Tch.
[07:11] Lupi
    What do we do, Momo?
[07:13] Chamo
    Yeah. Can you do it?
[07:15] Momo
    Well, I'm pretty sure I can't.
[07:18] Momo
    But after I finally came to
    school, I'm gonna be expelled?
[07:21] Momo
    Can they really do that?
[07:27] Momo
    Hey, you. Are you okay with this?
[07:32] Momo
    Can you see something out there?
[07:35] 1
    Talking to her's pointless.
[07:37] 1
    She can't talk to people.
[07:40] 1
    She just looks outside all the time.
[07:42] 4
    Yeah. That's right.
[07:45] 4
    No one can see it except me.
[07:49] 4
    Someday, a prince on a white horse will
    come to the window to ride off with me.
[07:56] Chamo
    She's hopeless.
SIGN    She's just looking out the window, holed up in her own world.
[08:01] Lupi
    What do we do, Momo?
[08:03] Lupi
    The whole class is gonna
    get expelled at this rate!
[08:05] Momo
    If we can't do it alone,
    let's do it together!
[08:08] Chamo
    But that's cheating!
[08:10] Momo
    What's the big deal?
[08:12] Momo
    "True achievement is what
    you can cheat!" You know?
[08:18] Momo
    Hey, everyone. You don't wanna
    get kicked out of school, right?
[08:21] 3
    My mom's gonna be so mad if I get expelled!
[08:24] 1
    I'll quit if I want, but I
    don't wanna get kicked out.
[08:26] 2
    Great!
[08:28] 2
    What a lucky sign! It's
    the goddess of fortune!
[08:31] Momo
    Then let's all band together
    in a common cause!
[08:34] Momo
    All humanity are brothers!
[08:39] King
    It's all good, it's all good!
[08:41] King
    When you don't know something,
    you should ask someone who knows!
[08:46] Queen
    Yes, that's our Momo.
[08:47] Queen
    She knows the secrets of cheating!
[08:49] Queen
    One man's deficiency is another man's lesson.
[08:52] Queen
    If you're wrong, ask someone else
    to teach you the right answer!
[08:57] Queen
    Wait... is this actually a good lesson?
[09:00] King
    Are you an old hand at this, dear?
[09:03] Queen
    It's not about hands.
[09:05] Queen
    You use your eyes to cheat.
[09:06] King
    Yeah, yeah, you use your eyes to peek!
[09:10] King
    Back in the Marinarsa mermaid hot springs...
[09:12] Queen
    What were you peeking at in
    the mermaid hot springs?!
[09:17] King
    Oh, can't cheat my way out of this...
[09:21] Queen
    Cheaters never prosper!
[09:23] Queen
    Dear... that was cheap.
[09:26] Momo
    Come join us.
[09:29] 1
    Hey.
[09:31] 1
    Hey! She's calling for you.
[09:33] 1
    Look at me!
[09:36] 1
    You get it? You gotta do this stuff!
[09:39] 1
    You don't like being called
    a failure either, right?
[09:44] 1
    Fine, do what you want.
[09:47] 1
    Sheesh.
[09:49] 1
    What's so funny?
[09:50] Momo
    Nothing.
[09:53] 1
    So what's this crap? True or false?
[09:55] 1
    How should I know?
[09:56] 2
    Number one, true. Number two,
    false. Number three, false.
[10:01] Momo
    You know the answers?
[10:02] 2
    My fortunes never miss!
[10:04] Momo
    Yikes!
[10:06] Lupi
    They're right half the time.
[10:07] Chamo
    They're wrong half the time.
SIGN    You can't rely on a 50-50 shot.
[10:12] Momo
    Well, in that case,
[10:13] Momo
    let's save a drowning man with magic!
SIGN    Magic? You're sure it's okay to go that far?
[10:19] Momo
    Well, I'm not using the test to
    improve my own score this time!
[10:25] Momo
    I'm doing it to keep everyone
    from getting expelled!
[10:28] Chamo
    That's a kind of logic, I guess.
[10:30] Momo
    That means it's still logic!
[10:34] Momo
    Mr. True and Mr. False, tell me
    where you'd most like to live!
[10:47] Momo
    It worked!
[10:49] Momo
    These are the right answers, guys!
[10:52] 2
    The true and false is one thing,
[10:53] 2
    but what about the rest of the problems?
[10:55] 2
    That's one thing I can't
    use fortune-telling for.
[10:58] 4
    Use this.
[11:02] 4
    I don't like to talk to
    people, but I can do math.
[11:05] 4
    N-Numbers never lie.
[11:17] Teacher
    Well? Did you finish?
[11:19] Teacher
    I'm sure you didn't.
[11:21] All
    We're done!
[11:22] Teacher
    Yes, as I thought.
[11:23] Teacher
    You're completely—
[11:25] Teacher
    What?!
[11:28] Teacher
    Let me see that!
[11:31] Teacher
    It can't be!
[11:32] Teacher
    Wait just a minute!
[11:36] Teacher
    Ouch!
[11:38] All
    We did it!

[12:09] Principal
    What in the world?
[12:11] Principal
    There's no way they could've
    passed that test...
[12:15] Computer
    Inexplicable. Inexplicable.
[12:17] Computer
    Results cannot be explained.
[12:18] VP
    What do we do, Mr. Principal?
[12:20] VP
    We don't have an excuse to
    expel the failures, now!
[12:23] Computer
    Failures are undesirable.
    Failures are undesirable.
[12:27] Principal
    That's right.
[12:29] Principal
    They are still failures, regardless!
[12:32] Principal
    Most of the wealthy and influential people
    in this country graduated from our school.
[12:37] Principal
    Those dubbed by our computer as incapable
    of becoming wealthy or influential
[12:41] Principal
    cannot remain in our school!
[12:44] Principal
    If our school's reputation
    drops because of them,
[12:46] Principal
    we'll stop drawing the children
    of the wealthy and influential here!
[12:50] Principal
    Which means...
[12:52] VP
    We won't get any money!
[12:54] VP
    I don't wanna be poor!
[12:55] Principal
    I want money! I don't want failures!
[13:00] Computer
    Watch the failures until they make a mistake.
[13:04] Principal
    Make a mistake?
[13:06] Computer
    Leave them to their own devices today.
[13:08] Computer
    Given their personalities, if you
    leave them to their own devices,
[13:12] Computer
    they'll eventually cause
    problems due to boredom.
[13:14] Computer
    Once they cause a problem,
    expel them immediately.
[13:17] Principal
    Oh! That's our computer!
[13:31] 3
    The teacher's been gone a while.
[13:33] 1
    I'm way happier without a teacher.
[13:36] Momo
    You don't like teachers?
[13:39] 1
    Yeah, they're like a parrot that only
    knows how to say one word: "study, study."
[13:43] 1
    And they ignore all the
    failures and problem children.
[13:46] Momo
    It's sad for a student to hate
    school because of the teacher.
[13:50] Momo
    You spend most of your day at school, right?
[13:53] Momo
    I know. If it's not fun, let's make it fun!
[13:57] 1
    H-Hey!
[13:58] Momo
    I know a fun teacher!
[14:00] Momo
    I'll call her here!
[14:01] Computer
    A problem. A problem is occurring.
[14:04] Computer
    If they cause a problem, expel them.
SIGN    Momo, what are you doing?
[14:10] Momo
    This!
[14:12] Momo
    Parariru Parariru Doririnpa!
[14:14] Momo
    Tiaran Tianan Maririnpa!
[14:16] Momo
    Become a schoolteacher with a Minky touch!
[14:27] Lupi
    Schoolteachers are so cool!
[14:31] Momo
    Thanks, student!
[14:32] Momo
    Now, let's start the lesson.
[14:34] Momo
    We'll have some fun!
[14:36] Momo
    Hi, everyone! Good morning!
[14:39] Momo
    Hey, where's your energy?
[14:41] 1
    Who're you?
[14:42] Momo
    I'm your new teacher.
[14:44] Momo
    I'm taking over your classes all day.
[14:46] Momo
    Nice to meet you.
[14:48] Momo
    Now, let's start class!
[14:50] Momo
    Everyone, let's meet in the yard!
[14:52] Momo
    It's sports time!
[14:54] 1
    Yeah!
[14:55] Computer
    A problem. A problem is occurring.
[14:57] Computer
    If they cause a problem, expel them.
[15:04] Momo
    Here.
[15:06] 1
    Tennis?
[15:07] Momo
    Yeah. Now you can all play, right?
[15:10] Momo
    Here.
[15:12] 2
    B-But I never carry anything
    heavier than cards...
[15:17] 1
    Nah, this stuff's easy.
[15:19] 1
    I'll teach you.
[15:21] 1
    C'mon!
[15:25] 1
    Here I come!
[15:25] 2
    Okay!
[15:29] 1
    What're you doing?
[15:31] 1
    Watch closer! Like this!
[15:32] 2
    Like this?
[15:34] 1
    No, like this!
[15:36] Momo
    Now, let's play, too.
[15:38] 3
    Okay.
[15:46] Momo
    Do you want to join us?
[15:48] Momo
    You'll have more fun in a group, I'm sure.
[15:54] Momo
    Right?
[15:59] 4
    Sure.
[16:04] VP
    Did we have a teacher
    like that at this school?
[16:06] Principal
    Who cares? Let's just watch
    until they cause a problem!
[16:14] Momo
    Okay, let's run a fun experiment!
[16:17] Momo
    Mix these two, and...
[16:20] Momo
    See?
[16:21] 1
    Hey, that's cool!
[16:23] Momo
    Go on! You try it!
[16:28] 3
    If you mix these two chemicals,
    you can make white crystals.
[16:34] 3
    That one's dangerous!
    We should put that away.
[16:37] 1
    Wow, you know your stuff.
[16:39] 1
    Did they get the wrong idea
    about you or something?
[16:42] 1
    Why do they call you a failure?
[16:45] 3
    It makes sense. I always freeze up on tests.
[16:49] 3
    When I see a test paper, I start obsessing
    over how I have to get a good grade,
[16:54] 3
    and I start to feel sick...
[16:57] 3
    I'm pretty hopeless, aren't I?
[17:00] Principal
    There's no problem here!
[17:03] VP
    Then let's cause a problem for them!
[17:17] 1
    Look out!
[17:18] Momo
    Stay calm, everyone!
[17:19] Computer
    It is done! It is done!
[17:21] Computer
    The failures caused a problem! Expel them!
[17:33] Momo
    Thank goodness.
[17:34] Momo
    But what started the fire?
[17:37] Chamo
    Momo, look!
[17:40] Principal
    Y-You went too far!
[17:42] VP
    You're the one who did it!
[17:44] Momo
    Was it you two?
[17:45] Momo
    How could you do this?
[17:47] Principal
    N-Not good!
[17:48] Momo
    Wait!
[17:50] Momo
    Hey, wait!
[17:54] VP
    Wh-What do we do?
[17:56] Momo
    I found you.
[17:57] Momo
    Care to explain what you were up to?
[17:59] Principal
    It was this brilliant computer's
    analysis that declared you failures!
[18:04] Computer
    Yes. By any analysis, those
    children are failures.
[18:08] VP
    That's right! That's right!
[18:10] VP
    We don't want failures like
    you in our great school!
[18:13] Momo
    It's wrong to determine a student's
    worth based on their grades.
[18:17] 1
    Teacher...
[18:19] Computer
    I do not make mistakes.
[18:21] Computer
    It is clear you will not
    grow into proper adults.
[18:25] 1
    Stop making stuff up!
[18:28] Computer
    I did not make it up.
[18:29] Computer
    It is an analysis.
[18:30] Computer
    One plus one is two.
[18:32] Computer
    Emotions will not change the
    results of the analysis.
[18:36] Computer
    Failure No. 1 will become a delinquent
[18:38] Computer
    and eventually a burglar.
[18:41] Computer
    Failure No. 2 will become
    a sham fortune teller.
[18:45] Computer
    Failure No. 3 will become a low-level
    office worker with no hope of advancement.
[18:50] Computer
    Failure No. 4 will be perpetually mute.
[18:54] Computer
    And Failure No. 5 will be...
[18:56] Momo
    You're wrong!
[18:57] Computer
    No, this is your future.
[19:00] 1
    You're wrong!
[19:01] 3
    That's not my dream!
[19:03] 3
    I want to be a scientist!
[19:05] Computer
    You will fail.
[19:06] 2
    I don't want a future like that, either!
[19:08] Computer
    That is your future, nevertheless.
[19:10] 4
    I... I...
[19:12] 4
    I have dreams, too!
[19:15] Computer
    A prince on a white horse will not appear
    for a girl who cannot talk to others.
[19:21] 4
    You're wrong! I'll find him!
[19:23] 4
    I will find him!
[19:24] 1
    Yeah! Our futures are ours to choose!
[19:29] Momo
    You guys...
[19:30] VP
    Y-You people... are you turning on us?
[19:33] Principal
    Y-You're expelled!
[19:34] Principal
    You're all expelled!
[19:36] 1
    I'd gladly quit a stupid school that
    decides other people's futures for them!
[19:40] All
    I don't need this school!
[19:42] Computer
    Don't need it? Impossible.
[19:44] Computer
    My data rejects the possibility of
    children who do not need school.
[19:48] Momo
    Well, they don't need it!
[19:50] Momo
    Let's destroy this stupid school!
[19:51] Principal
    What in the world?
[19:53] Principal
    You can't destroy our school!
[19:54] Principal
    Who gave you permission for that?!
[19:56] Momo
    I give permission!
[20:01] 1
    Take that!
[20:07] Computer
    Stop this! Stop this!
[20:09] Computer
    This is unbelievable!
[20:11] Computer
    You are all... useless... children...
[20:14] Computer
    Breaking... down...
[20:17] Momo
    Run, everyone!
[20:38] Principal
    This has been the worst day ever!
[20:44] Principal
    I knew it!
[20:47] King
    They did it! They did it!
    They really took charge!
[20:50] King
    They did it! They did it!
[20:51] Queen
    But is this really all right?
[20:54] King
    It's great, actually!
[20:55] King
    The children get to find their
    own futures without cheating!
[20:59] Queen
    Not peeking, you mean?
[21:02] King
    You're still on that?
[21:11] Momo
    The school's gone now, huh?
[21:13] 1
    We don't need a crummy school like that.
[21:15] 3
    It's not the school that
    determines our futures.
[21:18] 2
    I don't think it's fortunes, either.
[21:19] 4
    It's us!
[21:26] Momo
    You really don't need school?
[21:34] 1
    It's been fifty years now, has it?
[21:37] 1
    Failure No. 4 has become the

    scholar with a Nobel Prize.
[21:45] 3
    Failure No. 3 is a world
    champion tennis player.
[21:48] 2
    And Failure No. 1, who they
    said would be a burglar,
[21:52] 1
    is the president.
[21:53] 4
    You certainly stole this country away!
[21:57] 3
    I wonder what happened to that teacher.
[22:00] 2
    We were able to make our dreams
    come true without going to school.
[22:05] 1
    That day was the most fun
    I'd ever had in school.
[22:11] 1
    Speaking of, what happened to
    that girl... Failure No. 5?
[22:21] Momo
    She's right here.
[22:23] Momo
    Who needs school?
