As long as there is kindness in the world, no child will be alone.

Animondays returns to We Luv Video on December 15th with a screening of Junkers Come Here.

This coming-of-age film follows the slice-of-life adventures of Hiromi and her magical talking dog Junkers (Yoon-kers) as she navigates the hardships of early adolescence during the holiday season. Featuring gorgeous yet understated animation, this underseen gem is filled with lighthearted warmth.

Created by an all star animation crew including direction by Junichi Sato (Sailor Moon, Princess Tutu, Aria) and character designs by Kazuo Komatsubara (Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Galaxy Express 999), it is only a matter of time before Junkers is recognized as an anime classic.

Highly recommended for fans of Ghibli’s Only Yesterday, Whisper of the Heart, and Kiki’s Delivery Service.
