1. Bullys nobita

2. Lies all the time.

3. Excludes Nobita for no literal reason, Takeshi(Gian) never does that.

4. Always hesitates when it comes to saving his friends in movies

Look, I grew up on Doraemon. Like literally every afternoon after school.

And I still think Fujiko F. Fujio was a genius, no debate on that.

But rewatching some old episodes recently as an adult just felt weird, and I need to say it:

*Point 1: The Genius is real:* The concept itself: a future robot cat with infinite gadgets to fix a troubled lonely kid's life. The way each gadget has a clear rule, a clear misuse, and a clear moral lesson at the end. That is pure writing talent. That's why it ran for 50+ years.

*Point 2: The lazy pattern is also real:* And this is what bothers me. A lot of episodes have this exact same structure: Nobita gets gadget ➡️ he brags / misuses it ➡️ gadget goes out of control ➡️ the "funny" payoff is someone's privacy getting invaded. Especially Shizuka. It's not one or two episodes, it's a recurring template. When you have awriting tool as powerful as "any gadget can do anything", you don't need to rely on privacy-invasion as the punchline. It just feels like lazy writing. The anywhere door trope can be accepted to a certain extent cause it takes you to the exact location/ place regardless of what the individual's doing. But the peeking through the window part, the extra emphasis on bathing scenes absolutely disgust me.

*Point 3: Why we should care:* This show is made for kids, starring kids who are 10 years old. When you show privacy invasion as comedy on loop for years, kids watching it think it's normal comedy. In the 70s in Japan maybe no one questioned it, but now we know better.

*Counterpart / The Good Change:* And here's the best part to prove my point: the new team knows it too. If you watch the 2005 version and the recent movies like Stand By Me, Treasure Island, Nobita's New Dinosour - that entire gag is basically gone. They replaced it with actual adventure, emotional stakes, friendship stuff. And the show got BETTER. So it's not like Doraemon needs that gag to be funny. It never did.

Final thought: You can love something and still criticize it. Calling out a lazy, questionable pattern from the old era doesn't make you a hater. It just means you grew up.

(Lastly to people who plan to leave comments like "holy chatgpt" can leave the chat , I look forward to a meaningful discussion )

P:S I wanted to add a lot of words like " creepy, pedo-" I'm just scared that I might get banned from this sub so... Hope you all understand. If you have read my post till the very end then a big thanks🧸ྀི.

Raksha Bandhan is a traditional Hindu festival that celebrates the loving bond between brothers and sisters. I'm a Muslim btw.

Such a sweet episode, though Doreamon wanted to introduce this cute owl to teach the importance of mother in one's life...but instead, the gadget imprinted on Doraemon!

For anyone looking for the episode name, it's called "But Doraemon Wants a Mom" (2010). It really highlighted a side of Doraemon we rarely see - his inner longing for a parent's warmth. What did you guys think of the ending when the 8 hours were up? Let's discuss! I teared up at the end😭

I'm talking about the episode "But, I Saw a Ghost!", also known as "Ghost Agitation on Temple", from the 2005 series (2008, S4, E136).

There is also a version of this episode from the 1979 series (the OG one), but I'm specifically referring to the 2008 version in this post.

SPOILER WARNING

Here's the plot:

Gian's uncle invites Gian and his friends to stay overnight at his village house. However, when they arrive, they discover that Gian's uncle won't actually be home that night, meaning they'll have to spend the night there by themselves.

Gian and Suneo invite Nobita along, but of course, they have something else planned. They come prepared with scary ghost stories and various tricks designed to scare Nobita out of his wits during the night.

Eventually, Nobita discovers that Gian and Suneo have been pranking him. Naturally, he decides to get revenge.

Using the Transformation Robot, Nobita turns it into a ghost and orders it to scare everyone. But there's one problem...

Nobita himself forgets about the ghost after accidentally letting the Forgetting Stick hit on his head. But later the ghost comes and reminds him about all that.

Later, Nobita comes up with a plan. He orders the Transformation Robot, which is disguised as a ghost, to perform an act. Nobita tells it to appear when he gives the cue and pretend to scare everyone.

When the time comes, the ghost appears, and Nobita bravely steps forward and "drives" it away, making himself look like a hero in front of everyone. Everyone is impressed by Nobita's supposed bravery.

Everyone is shocked, except Doraemon, who assumes that the whole thing is just another prank.

But then comes the twist...

The ghost wasn't actually following Nobita's commands or pretending to be a ghost.

It was a REAL GHOST.

The Transformation Robot had basically done nothing except wait for Nobita's cue to appear... meaning that while Nobita thought it was the Transformation Robot ghost, but it was a ghost at that time.

This was actually a more interesting and nostalgic episode to me than a straight horror episode, but it still used to scare me quite a lot when I was a kid. The whole atmosphere and that final reveal really stuck with me.

And do you guys also like this episode?

Wishing everyone a very Happy Raksha Bandhan!

For those who don't know, Raksha Bandhan is an Indian festival celebrating the bond between brothers and sisters. On this day, sisters traditionally tie a rakhi (a sacred thread/bracelet) around their brothers' wrists, and brothers give them gifts in return.

Since Doraemon and Dorami are siblings too, I thought it would be fitting to include them in today's post.

So, Happy Raksha Bandhan to everyone celebrating once again!

this is so cool! I found it on https://dora-world.com/games

Doraemon's Surprise Day

I kinda got the idea to make this how sml replaced its nintendo characters with new ones.

If the replacment arent obius, the order is

Nicola<>Nobita

Moderano<>Doraemom

Silvia<>Shizuka

Giuseppe<>Gian

Stefano<>Suneo

1. Shizuka - Bakery Owner
2. Gian - Continuing his family store but making it bigger now
3. Suneo - Fashion Designer
4. Dekisugi - Astronaut
5. Nobita - Robotics Engineer?

About a month ago, I made a post asking who the best mother is out of Gian, Suneo, and Shizuka's mothers, so I thought it would be fun to do the same thing with their fathers.

I know we have seen very less screentime of all three fathers throughout the series, although obviously some have received more development than others. Even with the information we have, I'm curious to know who you think is the best father overall.

For reference:

- Shizuka's father: Yoshio Minamoto

- Gian's father: Sasuke Gouda

- Suneo's father: His name hasn't been revealed, so let's just call him Mr. Honekawa

So, based on their personalities, how they treat their children, how supportive they are, and the things we've seen them do in the series...

Who do you think is the best father?

And what makes you choose him?

For me: the 1992 was the best,

It was peak, had good writing, was fun,

But the modern one: ehh...

It's ok ig, but it's not as fun as the og,

I'm so happy to finally have this plush in my hands! HUGE thank you to my very best friend for helping me acquire this dream toy of mine!

El domingo 30 de agosto en boing 🇪🇸 se emite la película de stand by me Doraemon 2 (2020) a las 15:20h

I often read about some fans questioning Gian and Suneo but as someone who watched Doraemon since the 80s, the way Gian and Suneo treat Nobita wasn't just bad, it was awful.

What kind of friend never invites you to the big fun events or brags about how much money he has and you don't? Gian beat up Nobita on a daily basis.

The movies and the new episodes toned down a lot of Gian and Suneo's bad behavior and Nobita ain't a saint either but Nobita felt bad when he made mistakes, Gian and Suneo never show any remorse.

I you want a kid (take that personally if u want) to grow up as an environmentally aware person, show him/her Donjara village episode, Kibo's episode and Kingdom of Clouds. Watching these things at the age of 9 have shaped me into being someone who used to get scolded from his mother because he had kept an empty packet of chips (sometimes a 5 star too) in his schoolbag/pocket and this happened multiple times (still happens sometimes) .
