The new Fairy Princess Minky Momo OVA, Mahou no Princess Minky Momo Akogare no Yume e Magokoro no Duo, is delayed from its November 13, 2026 theatrical opening in Japan due to production issues. No replacement date has been announced.
The new Fairy Princess Minky Momo OVA was set to open in Japanese theaters on November 13, 2026, but the production committee announced on Wednesday that it is delayed due to production issues. No new date has been posted. Advance tickets remain valid for the eventual opening, and the committee says the new date will appear on the anime's official website and social media.
The OVA, titled Mahou no Princess Minky Momo Akogare no Yume e Magokoro no Duo, is directed by Ayumu Watanabe at Ashi Production. Deko Akao wrote the script, and Hiroshi Watanabe and Mari Tominaga handled character designs. Kurumi Haruki stars as Minky Momo, with Fukushi Ochiai, Natsumi Fujiwara, and Rie Kugimiya in supporting roles. Later casting added Tomohito Takatsuka as Rubato and Yoko Hikasa as Peter, then Show Hayami as the King of Diginarsa, Kikuko Inoue as the Queen, Kazuyuki Okitsu as Momo's father, and Mie Sonozaki as her mother.
The story is set in Diginarsa, the land of dreams and hopes, which is sustained by dream energy. As humans lose their dreams and hopes, that energy decreases and threatens the land. The king sends Chamocha, Dettabook, and Pipirupi to seek help from Minky Momo. On her 12th birthday, a girl named Momo receives a smartphone and awakens as Minky Momo after meeting the companions. She resolves to save Diginarsa, but a mysterious app becomes popular, and the dreams children share on it are frivolous, driven by a desire for recognition or views.
The OVA is the franchise's first new animated release since 1994's Minky Momo in The Station of Your Memories, a 32-year gap. The original 1982 series was directed by Kunihiko Yuyama.
