The production committee for the new Fairy Princess Minky Momo original video anime announced that the project has been delayed from its planned opening date. The committee apologized to fans and to everyone involved in production.
A new opening date will be announced on the anime's official website and social media once it is decided. Advance tickets already purchased for screenings will remain valid after the new opening date.
The delay marks another turn for a franchise with a long history. The original Minky Momo television anime aired from 1982 to 1983, followed by a second television series from 1991 to 1992 and several OVAs.
The franchise's previous new OVA, Minky Momo in The Station of Your Memories, was released in 1994 — 32 years ago. In 2015, William Winckler Productions released the 1982-1983 anime as English-dubbed features on Amazon Instant Video, and Crunchyroll began streaming the original television anime in January 2024.
