Yuuko Ichihara's shop in xxxHOLiC sells wishes, for something of equal value to what is being wished for.In Eiga Tamagotchi: Himitsu no Otodoke Dai Sakusen!, this is why Spacytchi wants the package the Tama-Friends are delivering to the Gotchi King he thinks the egg contained within will hatch into a being that can grant any wish of his choosing and he wants to use that wish to conquer Tamagotchi Planet the egg doesn't contain any such creature, though.(This process begins as soon as she summons the god and makes her first wish.) And lastly, if she is deemed to be not strong enough, or not pure enough, she will be completely devoured by the Beast God in question. Also, she is to remain a virgin until she summons the Beast God. There are some catches, however: although technically, she can wish for anything she wants, she's supposed to use her wishes for the greater good, not for her own gain. In Fushigi Yuugi, the Priestess gets Three Wishes from whichever Beast God she summons.Ah! My Goddess has this as the central device that begins the story.They tend to grant these wishes by way of a new Monster of the Week. The Jewel Seeds in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha were able to grant the wishes of the Muggles who gets a hold of them.As a little bonus, Madoka's Grief Seed has a shooting star on it. He's a Literal Genie and the wishes have a price that he doesn't elaborate on but the miracles are genuine. Puella Magi Madoka Magica has Weasel Mascot Kyubey offering a wish in exchange to turn girls into Magical Girls to fight Witches.The wish itself is granted in good faith, but it is possible to squander it. The Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer has its Mentor Mascots offering a wish in exchange for service in becoming Knights to battle a being that wants to destroy the world.On top of that, the ending theme for the said movie is called "Make A Wish". A Jirachi features prominently as the featured Mon of the sixth movie, Pokémon: Jirachi: Wish Maker. In Pokémon, Jirachi is a cute Fun Size Mythical Pokémon that has the power to grant wishes.This is the whole point of the original Dragon Ball: Goku (and everyone else in the series) is looking for the seven Dragon Balls, so they can make a wish.In the movie version ending, Eureka gets to have her long time wish came true: become human.Ironically, the last episode is titled "Wish Upon A Star", whereby the 3 kids and Renton's grandpa makes a wish upon the stars in the ending. In Eureka Seven, most of the things Renton wished for in the early episodes eventually came true (be good at reffing, getting an adventurous life, wanted Eureka as his girlfriend, wanting to hear Holland's "first love" story (episode 7), to see his father and sister, taking Eureka away to a distant place along with her (episode 30), stop the war, kissing Eureka, etc).More common is becoming horribly mutated and insane, and much, much more common is the usual result of trying this: dropping dead. Actually getting immortality is extremely rare. Mermaid Saga: eating the flesh of a mermaid is said to grant one wish: immortality.The final shot may reveal that the wish story was All Just a Dream ( Or Was It a Dream?), but some stories are much more subtle and leave it up to the audience whether the "wishes" really came true or were just a string of marvelous coincidences. If after all the wishes have been used up, the wisher ends up no better off, they've been Wasteful Wishing. Any number of other things, like blowing on an eyelash, blowing the seeds off a dandelion, or blowing on wishing/pixie dustĪfter the wish has been granted, the wisher may discover they don't like the way things are going and will use another wish to hit a Reset Button.

Some sort of magic wish tool (like a monkey's paw).Birthday candles and/or wishbones, which generally come with a proviso that telling anyone the wish means it won't come true.Other wishing methods, generally only resulting in one wish, include:
