''Welcome to The Space Show'' is a family science fiction anime film by Creator/A1Pictures. While at summer camp, five kids rescue an injured dog, who turns out to be an alien. As a thank you he takes them to a station on the far side of the moon, however the journey back proves to me more difficult - especially when some poachers start chasing them for the wasabi they happened to be carrying with them.

* ArtificialGravity: the pendants the kids are given not only give them TranslatorMicrobes, they also regulate gravity around them so they experience Earthlike gravity wherever they go. This is apparently pretty standard policy for most worlds within the Space Federation, although they do encounter one world whose leader refuses to install the appropriate technology for the pendants to work and so Amane and Natsuki find themselves smashed flat and unable to move as soon as they step off the train.

* FreeRangeChildren : The kids are essentially entirely unsupervised at "summer camp," with nary an adult in sight. This allows for them to follow Pochi into space for a week without any adults being the wiser.

* RunningGag: whenever Natsuki encounters an animal, she pets it starting from the lower back and going up the spine. Every creature she does this to shows displeasure when she does it. [[spoiler: when she does it to one of the big cow/lizard things Pochi's parents have, it chases her around the field, with her yelling out "I'M SORRY!"]]
