* IronicFear: Junkers is afraid of cats. In RealLife, this wouldn’t be a surprise, as the average dog that’s as small as Junkers would be afraid of cats, since they’re closer to their eye level and just as fierce and territorial.

Junkets being afraid of cats is nothing related to the trope


* AcrophobicBird: Junkers is afraid of cats.

Has nothing to do with familiarity with in-universe fiction.

A 1994 Japanese animated film produced by Bandai studios, ''Junkers Come Here'' focuses on Hiromi, a grade school student from a fairly well-off family who has now to deal with her parents' divorce. Having long been a subject to [[WhenYouComingHomeDad a mother who comes home late every night and a father who is usually out of the country]], Hiromi is raised mostly by her maid, Fumie, and her (attractive) tutor, Keisuke. Thankfully, she has her loyal and adorable dog Junkers for company. Oh, and by the way, only Hiromi knows it, but [[TalkingAnimal Junkers can talk]]!!

!!This anime film provides examples of:

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor / MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Hiromi uses her first miracle from Junkers to wish Keisuke doesn't get married to his girlfriend, Yoko, the next day Yoko breaks up with Keisuke, severely depressing him.
* DramaticIrony: On her birthday, Hiromi wakes up in the middle of the night and sees that both her parents are at home, since there's still a few minutes left of her birthday she is very happy to have both her parents together for her birthday so she rushes downstairs... [[spoiler: only to eavesdrop just when her mother proposes the divorce to her father]].
* EarnYourHappyEnding: [[spoiler: At the end Hiromi's parents decide not to divorce, her mother moves to San Francisco to take a new job, while Hiromi stays in Japan with her father eventually moving all together with her mother, the downside is that Junkers has lost his ability to speak and is now a normal dog... or is he?]].
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: In the first scenes, to show that Junkers is not a a normal dog, we see a him going inside a men's bathroom, then using the urinal and flushing it, while a normal dog urinates on a tree.
* GenreSavvy: Hiromi when explaining to Junkers what would happen if it was revealed that he's a talking dog.

Deconstructed with Hiromi towards her parents' divorce, since she wants them to be happy but she is internally torn apart by the notion of her family breaking up, so she puts on a stoic facade that starts to take a toll on her emotionally.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: [[spoiler: At the end of the movie Junkers cannot speak anymore, Hiromi wonders if Junkers was really a talking dog and if everything that happened was really the product of his magic, although the final scene shows Junkers using the men's urinal, hinting that everything was real]].
* MrFanservice: Keisuke, not just Hiromi has a crush on him, also Fumie.
* MundaneWish: Hiromi while running with Junkers after Yoko's car she shouts "I wish you to come back!", Junkers then grants her second wish, and Yoko and Keisuke reconcile.
** For her third wish [[spoiler: Junkers offers Hiromi to wish her parents don't get divorced, Hiromi declines by saying that she doesn't want to force them to live together if they don't love each other anymore, then she breaks down sobbing, and wishes that, just one last time, her family to be all happy together, Junkers grants her wish and whisks her and her parents away to the beach where Hiromi has her best childhood memories]].
* ParentalObliviousness: Oho boy... Both of Hiromi's parents are completely oblivious to her suffering, believing her to be very mature and taking the divorce quite well.
* ThreeWishes: Junkers tells Hiromi that he can grant three miracles.
