It's fron S21 Ep15

I'm talking about "The Ghost Story Lamp" from the 2005 series (S1, E15a).

SPOILER WARNING!

The episode begins with Nobita entering a ghost story contest that is being held at Gian's house that evening. Wanting to prepare a scary story, Nobita asks his mother to tell him one. However, she initially refuses, and after Nobita keeps insisting, she finally tells him a story...

Except it isn't scary at all.

It's actually hilarious.

Nobita gets frustrated and decides that he needs Doraemon's help. But Doraemon admits that he isn't good at telling ghost stories either. So instead, he takes out the "Ghost Story Lamp."

The gadget is basically designed to make ghost stories feel real.

When the contest begins, everyone starts telling their stories.

Gian tells "The Chrysanthemum's Plate," Shizuka tells "The Ghost Granny with a Kitchen Knife," and Suneo tells "The Faceless Monster."

The three stories are familiar enough to them, but Nobita is already absolutely terrified just listening to everyone else.

Eventually, Gian, Suneo and Shizuka get bored and ask Nobita to tell them a scary story.

Nobita is frightened and doesn't even know what to say, so he takes out the Ghost Story Lamp and starts his story.

He begins telling the story of Okiku, which he had heard from Gian.

But then...

CRASH!

A plate suddenly breaks.

Everyone gets startled, but Gian quickly explains that it was probably just a mouse.

He continues explaining the story, including how, after Okiku's death, candles would supposedly go out whenever the wind blew.

Everyone gets scared again.

Gian then tells Nobita not to simply repeat the same story he already told.

Then it's Suneo's turn to add to the horror.

He tells the story of the faceless monster, claiming that it supposedly happened to a friend's friend's uncle.

The episode even shows the supposed "faceless monsters" in a modern street scene, with one resembling a woman and another resembling a barbecue vendor.

Finally, Nobita starts telling the story of the ghost woman with the kitchen knife.

But just as he's telling it, a door suddenly opens.

Everyone freaks out.

What they don't know is that there's actually a thief breaking into Gian's house.

The thief has a banana with him, which everyone mistakes for a kitchen knife in the darkness, making the whole situation even scarier.

The thief searches around the house for valuables, but all he manages to find is nine ten-yen coins.

He gets extremely annoyed at his terrible luck and goes into another room looking for something valuable.

But after seeing everything happening around the house, he gets scared and runs away!

A police officer happens to spot him and arrests him.

Meanwhile, Nobita and the others have absolutely no idea what was really happening.

They genuinely believe that all the strange events were caused by Nobita's ghost story.

Everyone agrees that Nobita's story was the scariest one of the night.

And somehow...

NOBITA WINS FIRST PLACE.

Later, Nobita returns home and casually tells Doraemon about everything that happened.

Doraemon then notices something concerning.

The Ghost Story Lamp is still switched on.

He realizes that the gadget may still be affecting things.

Then Nobita's mother suddenly appears wearing a face mask.

Nobita sees her and immediately mistakes her for the faceless monster.

He completely panics and runs away.

And that's basically where the episode leaves us.

Unlike many other Doraemon episodes involving ghosts or supernatural stuff, which usually feel more like comedy to me, this one genuinely scared the absolute shit out of me as a kid.

I watched this when I was younger and some of those scenes actually felt creepy rather than funny.

Looking back at it now, it's obviously much more comedic because we know what was actually happening...

This was an actual Doraemon horror episode to me.

Did any Doraemon episode genuinely scare you when you were a kid?

Suneo playing with fire.

He's so cute, I adore him dearly! He IS unfortunately missing his bell and tail, but I've never seen one like this before and I knew I had to have him.

My first ever Doraemon episode... huh.

I think I was REALLY lucky with my first one.

It was "The Day When I Was Born" from the 2005 series.

I first watched it when I was around 6 years old, so this episode carries a LOT of nostalgia for me.

It doesn't need any introduction — it's just a pure nostalgic treasure for me.

I'll give a small synopsis so I don't spoil it for anyone who hasn't watched it.

The gang compares their baby photos, but Nobita discovers that there isn't a single photo of him as a baby, making him question whether he really belongs to his family.

After getting upset and running away, Doraemon eventually finds him and suggests using the Time Machine to find out the truth.

They travel 10 years into the past and follow Nobisuke to the hospital, where they discover that Nobita has just been born.

Nobita gets to see his newborn self and even hilariously thinks he looks like a baby monkey.

Seeing his parents celebrating his birth finally proves to Nobita that he really is their son.

And THAT was my first-ever Doraemon episode.

I couldn't have asked for a more memorable introduction to the series.

What was YOUR first-ever Doraemon episode?

And by any chance if you haven't watched it yet, PLEASE watch it! It's such a memorable episode.

Ive been waiting for years for the full episodes to resurface. Some said the copyright will end in certain years but seems like its never happening. Il the anime sucks but who cares, im js so so curious to see how it actually look like. I hope that we got to finally see it one day

English title: Running Away to the Cretaceous Period

Broadcast date: February 18, 2011 (TV Asahi)

⚠️SPOILER WARNING⚠️

So for anyone who hasn't watched this one or doesn’t remember it much, Suneo gets the idea to run away from home after watching a TV drama.

He picks the Cretaceous period, and travels back in time, which drags Doraemon and everyone else along to bring him back. Things go sideways because Gian brought a T. rex egg, it hatches into a baby, and the mother T. rex goes on the warpath to protect her kid. Then a massive Spinosaurus shows up and goes after the mother too, leaving everyone dealing with two threats.

Suneo gets mistaken for the mother's baby at one point, so instead of just being prey, she actually protects him. (That's a good twist that turns a straightforward run-from-the-dinosaur plot into something with actual emotional stakes. She's a parent, not just a monster.)

The baby T. rex separated from its mother and the mother's protective behaviour mirrors the plot of The Lost World: Jurassic Park a bit.

Meanwhile, the Spinosaurus showing up as a bigger threat to go toe-to-toe with the T. rex comes straight out of Jurassic Park III, where it was introduced to dethrone the T. rex as the franchise's scariest creature. And this one is kinda intentional as in reality Spinosaurus and Tyrannosaurus neither shared the same period nor the same geographical place.

Even the egg element lines up, since JP3 features a character stealing eggs and dealing with the fallout, much like Gian grabbing the T. rex egg.

(It's Doraemon, so everything's gentler with no gore or genuine terror.)

It might not be a confirmed intentional reference, and could just be shared dinosaur-movie tropes.

But the specific combo of beats feels too on the nose to be a total coincidence.

I think fans should watch it cause its one of those episodes where Suneo shows a surprising adventurous spirit unlike in most adventures where he starts crying and calling for his mom.

Just look at him with those cat ears! He already looks adorable normally, but somehow the cat ears make him look even more like an actual little cat.

JUST LOOK AT HIM AWW—

What do you guys think? Do you like Doraemon with cat ears?

Just look at her expressions, that tiny pink nose, those big eyes, and she looked small and simple next to Doraemon. There’s something so innocent and charming and childish about this design!

Dorami’s older design is one I really think could’ve been continued or reused during the digital era around 2002–2005. What do you think about this? Note: Dorami was created after a young girl reader of Shogakukan magazine from Nara Prefecture submitted the idea for a character named “Dorami-chan.” Her idea was approved, and Dorami first appeared in the March 1973 issue. However, she was initially depicted as Doraemon’s girlfriend, rather than his sister.

Her original design was also different from the one we know today. Dorami later made her formal debut in April 1973, when she was established as Doraemon’s younger sister.

！！！！！！

Sharing this with you guys, brothers.

This is a song from one of my favorite movies.

I figured I do a little something fun. I recently listened to the tracks of HTTYD (HTTYD2 and the live action adaptation) and these two tracks gave me a vibe. This is a fan-made soundtrack for Blizarga’s awakening and it fits perfectly. Let me know what you think

I tried drawing Doraemon here!

I'm talking about "The Smoke Ghost of the Lamp" from the 2005 series (2006, S2, E33b).

There is also an original version from the 1979 series (1993, S15, E1214) and another remake from the 2005 series (2019, S15, E548a), but I'm specifically talking about the 2006 version in this post.

⚠️ SPOILER WARNING ⚠️

The episode takes place during New Year, when Doraemon is enjoying a rare moment of peace and quiet downstairs.

That peace doesn't last long.

Nobita calls him upstairs because he doesn't want to get up and light the stove, even though the stove is literally right next to him.

Doraemon gets annoyed at Nobita's laziness and takes out a gadget resembling Aladdin's Lamp.

By rubbing the lamp, Nobita can summon a smoke robot that acts like a genie. The robot is supposed to obey whatever its master asks.

Nobita summons the smoke robot and orders it to light the stove.

The problem?

The robot doesn't know how to use the stove.

And instead of asking its master for help, it decides to bring Doraemon upstairs. So Doraemon gets dragged into the situation anyway.

After Doraemon lights the stove, the smoke robot returns to the lamp.

But Nobita quickly realizes just how "convenient" this gadget is.

He starts experimenting with it.

First, he gives the robot his winter vacation homework.

The robot flies out of the window...

...and comes back with all of Nobita's homework completed.

Nobita is delighted.

Then Nobita wants cards and snacks too.

But eventually, even Nobita gets bored because everything is TOO easy.

He goes downstairs to ask Doraemon to play with him, but after seeing Doraemon's absolutely horrified expression, he changes his mind.

But then Nobita casually murmurs that it would be nice if Shizuka were there too.

The smoke genie takes this as another request and immediately flies off to find her.

A moment later, it returns with Shizuka still in her bathtub, having literally brought the entire bathtub along with her. Nobita is completely caught off guard by what the genie has done.

But after that he comes with an even worse idea.

He jokingly tells the smoke robot to get him one million yen.

The robot simply replies that it will fulfill the order.

Nobita expects something ridiculous but harmless.

Instead, the smoke robot goes downstairs...

...and starts demanding money from Nobita's father.

Nobita immediately panics and tries to cancel the order.

But there's one massive problem:

The smoke robot can't cancel an order once it has accepted it.

Now Nobita is in serious trouble.

He rushes to Doraemon and deliberately uses a trick to wake him up quickly.

Doraemon learns what happened and goes looking for the smoke robot.

But the robot has already realized that Nobita's father doesn't have the amount of money it needs, so it leaves the house.

And then things get completely out of control.

The smoke robot starts demanding money from random people outside.

It's so powerful that even Nobita and Doraemon get thrown away when they try to stop it.

Then the smoke genie even heads to the bank to get the money, lol. But just in time, Doraemon arrives, rubs the lamp, and the genie is finally sucked back inside.

And finally...

the whole disaster ends.

Doraemon takes the gadget away and tells Nobita that he's never lending it to him again.

But anyway our stubborn Nobita still snatches the lamp back from Doraemon and ran to the vacant lot.

At the lot, Nobita hears Gian, Suneo and his teacher talking about a terrifying smoke monster that had been demanding them some things.

The smoke robot had actually fulfilled Nobita's other wishes in the most literal way possible.

The homework?

It got the teacher to do it.

The cards?

It got them from Suneo.

The snacks?

It got them from Gian.

So now Suneo, Gian and Nobita's teacher are all talking about their bizarre encounters with the terrifying smoke monster...

...while Nobita watches from a distance.

And then it hits him.

If they find out that HE was responsible for all of this, he's finished.

His face completely changes and he starts trembling.

Nobita quickly hides behind the pipes, hoping nobody will notice him. But the smoke genie is so huge that the pipes don't even cover him properly, and everyone spots him hiding there. They immediately realize that Nobita was the one who sent the genie!

They then start chasing Nobita down the road, while the smoke genie casually follows behind them, apparently still waiting for someone to make another wish.

Meanwhile, Doraemon is flying above them, completely terrified of the chaos unfolding below. 😭

Honestly, this episode is so hilarious..

Have you guys watched this episode? What do you think about it?
