Episode 48: A Mother's Apple
Wait, they make apple pie in this episode?
Episode 01: The White Whale Awakens!
Happy 5th anniversary to Inka-Subs! Five years ago, Touge agreed to translate one episode of Galvion because Live-Evil wouldn't do it, and now we're here. In celebration, here's the first episode of the latest project we've started!
We don't have a backlog built up on it quite yet, so it'll be a while before the next one, but we wanted to put this out to celebrate the anniversary today. If you're interested in translating on this project, let us know, Sergio thought it was lame, but what does he know.
Okay, I have been informed that Doraemon is indeed a robot cat from the future.

"Woah! Children fighting! I can sell this!"
- Anonymous studio exec, 1985
I told you it wouldn't be the last you saw of the Minkster.
I'm gonna be honest, I don't even know what Doraemon is about. Isn't the blue thing supposed to be a cat or something?

Episode 46: Dreams of Fenarinarsa
This isn't episode 26, obviously, and the reason for that is this is the end of this subbing project. With Crunchyroll putting out a second 15 episode batch, and a third 15 episode batch likely imminent, we've decided to end this project here, with the episode a lot of people have been waiting for. I cried. You're gonna cry too.
This isn't the end of the Minkster and her minions, but we're not finishing the 1982 TV show or starting the 1992 reboot. This is the first time we've ever had to drop a project mid-run, but this was really a blessing in disguise for us. As is tradition, I'd like to thank everyone who made this project happen: Touge, Sergio, perry, Muzu, imatu - thank you to Jsum for the raws and kenny lauderdale for inspiring me to start this project.

As you're all probably aware, Crunchyroll has seemingly begun to license Minky Momo. Yesterday, it was only available in some regions of the world, but today it's been made available in North America as well.
The first thing to say is that the subs on this Crunchyroll release seem to be 100% original, not rips/copies of our subtitles or anyone elses' - the comments in the sub files seem to imply they were supplied by the alleged rights holder who licensed the show to Crunchyroll, a company named "GONZO". We haven't been able to find any more information about them.
So, the second thing, and the point of this post, is to outline what we're gonna do. Historically, when a show is licensed officially in North America, we would immediately drop it and scrub the show from torrent sites. However, right now, the group stance is to keep going with the show until there's an official license announcement of some kind.
Why? Right now, there is no official confirmation that Momo has actually been fully licensed in North America. It's also unclear as to when, or if, more episodes of the show will become available on Crunchyroll. Fifteen episodes just seem to have suddenly appeared on Crunchyroll, with no announcement or fanfare, which when combined with the sketchy and unclear history of Momo's licensing, seems suspcious.
Should a more substantial and official licensing agreement be announced, or if we were to be contacted by Crunchyroll, we will cease work on the show immediately. However, for now, we felt it was important to make the group stance public. If you have any viable and verifiable information about this licensing situation, please join our Discord or email us.
Episode 24: The Wandering Unicorn
Allegedly, Crunchyroll has licensed at least the first 15 episodes of Momo in some regions of the world in English. If so, that might mean the end of this fansubbing project. We'll keep you posted. Until then, here's episode 24.
Episode 18: Who's the Sloth?
Like Leo, we've already completed all the work on this show, so it'll be released in monthly 5-episode batches from now on.
