* OvenLogic: Bob thinks it'll take less time to heat up Kuchi Kopi if they turn up the heat. Between the logic being faulty from the beginning and the fact that the family loses track of time trying to feed Louise her medicine, this backfires and melts the doll's face.

No it's...not? It's not anime-esque and the only similarity in the story is "a girl is trying to go to a location". Erasing The Wall too because it's zero context.

* FoulMedicine: Louise refuses to take her medicine, spitting it back out after her mom leaves the room and fighting off her entire family when they try to make her take it. It's partly because of the taste and partly because she doesn't want to get better and go back to school.

* AllJustADream: After Louise wakes up and sees the replacement Kuchi Kopi, she thinks that her toy getting destroyed was a dream, but then Bob drops the melted Kuchi Kopi doll that was hiding behind his back. However, since she learned a lesson in forgiveness during her fever dream and because her family went through a lot of trouble to find a replacement, she's okay with that.

Added DiffLines:

*FromBadToWorse: All of the Belchers contributed to Kuchi Kopi's deformation in a series of escalating events. Louise left it in the bathroom, and when Linda was instructed to retrieve it she dropped it in the toilet ''twice'', clogging it with water. Then Tina made the ill-fated suggestion to dry it off in the oven. Then Bob decided to turn up the heat to decrease the wait time so Louise didn't question why Linda was taking so long to retrieve Kuchi Kopi, causing it to melt when they left the oven unattended to give Louise her medicine. ''Then'' Gene decided he could fix Kuchi Kopi and grabbed it, squishing it and leaving pretty much no hope of restoring its original shape. Just to add insult to injury, [[HopeSpot Teddy shows up to save the day]], only to further deform it in the process.
