In
Alfonso is a major character in, as Yū's best friend. As the movie was only released in Japan, his name in the movie is Albert. He was voiced by Takatoshi Kaneko.

Albert is first seen when Ai delivers 500 pies to him, after which Yū runs by chasing a butterfly to catch it. Albert runs back into his house to get his net and follows suit. Later, they dig holes all over the place by the beach to find an ammonite. Rosie, known as "Bouquet" in the film, says she's seen many more of them somewhere else. Albert, Yū, Bouquet, Ai, and Sally search for the ammonites in a giant cave.

During the Fireworks Festival, Albert is seen with Yū when Crazy Redd sells him a fake golden slingshot. After Sally moves out, Albert and Yū play tricks on the villagers with pitfalls, and Ai falls into one, but she just gets up with barely any reaction at all. At the Winter Festival, Albert helps find Johnny's lost UFO parts.
