Introduction
Nobita Nobi is a normal fourth grade student. This all changes, however, when a blue robotic cat appears from his desk drawer. Calling himself Doraemon, this robot tells Nobita that his future descendants from the 22nd century live in poverty because of all the mistakes he made. Therefore, they have sent Doraemon to serve as a guide and mentor to Nobita, so that their future may change for the better. What Doraemon comes to learn, though, is that Nobita is the weakest and laziest student in the whole school.
To assist in his quest, Doraemon has a four-dimensional pocket with him, in which he keeps various machines and gadgets from the future. Unfortunately, these often result in even more trouble for Nobita. Will Doraemon really be able to achieve his mission of changing Nobita, or will he remain as he is?

Well, I could go very long with this one. What could you exactly talk about Doraemon? There are millions of great things that you could talk about Doraemon. Whether it's affecting the anime world, how it inspired children when we were kids, animation, drama, movies that aren't canon but you could be talking about them for miles and miles ahead about how great they are, the backstory of every single character in Doraemon that could make a whole movie out of it, Nobita's future with Shizuka and how he's been living with Doraemon, Stand By Me: Doraemon that's undoubtedly one of the best anime movies in the world, influence on Japan and the whole world, in Florence in Southeast Asia, and hundreds of things you could mention to show how strong Doraemon's influence is. Doraemon is an anime that…

Doraemon is a must for children!
It was the first anime I have ever watched and the first manga i have ever read.
The story is very easy to understand and perfect for children! The art is really nice and the sound quality on point!
Characters like Doraemon, Dorami and Nobita can really brighten up your day! Especially if you had a bad day at work or school.
Enjoyment is also there.
The only bad thing is that some episodes are really boring but maybe thats because Im not in that age anymore. Overall a very classic anime that you have to know about!

These days it goes against the grain for a person to rip on a cult classic.
Allow me to do just that, write a review that'll do this series justice.
Art 4/10:
Severely dated, by today standards this series comes off immediately as an eyesore. Absolutely pathetic by the 80s animation criteria. This series came out around the time of the VHS era, the time when animation was purely hand drawn and devoid of any graphical rendering from CGI. I am a sap for smooth hand drawn animation and I can sympathise if the series cannot deliver those moments all the time, since that demands painful labours and a creative knack for animation per se. But Doraemon was lackadaisical from start to finish, not a single moment throughout the 1787 episodes when I thought there was a redeeming scene that might sa…

Doraemon is a cat... A Robot Cat from the future who is very, VERY HANDY at all times thanks to his Special Pocket on his stomach that has tons and tons of tools and equipment to use to solve everything that is a problem.
Then, there's that spoiled little kid named Nobita, who is a very annoying little boy who always fails when it come to their school test and quizzes and what's worst is that, he is a very lazy kid and he has always been a victim of being scolded by his mother. In Doraemon's case. Nobita always wants to "borrow" something to Doraemon to do something silly, but Doraemon, most of the time, refuses to because he doesn't trust Nobita for doing something using his tools. But when Nobita sometimes baits him by giving him Doraemon's food, or when Nobita then throws tantrums, Dor…

Clear all of your previous jaundice, because Doraemon is not as clear and transparent as it would seem on the surface; it should not be simply considered as another anime on par with the pace of all of the classics of anime. With its immensely large number of episodes, and the repetitiveness of its plot line in line with flat characters that hardly undergo any change, it is easy to assume that the anime is simply about the numerous different gadgets that Doraemon brought back from the future. To change your perspective, you only need an open mind, then you will see the truth as clear as daylight.
To begin, as much as you wish to believe that Doraemon is about a ne'er do well named Nobita and how his life changed for good from the arrival of Doraemon, the plot of Doraemon actually revolves…

A children's anime at best. I watched Doraemon as a child and as much as I loved it back then, I still love it now. Every thing is just cliche, but the endings are always so funny and classic. There isn't anything else I love more than watching Doraemon. I'm probably insane when my friends ask me what my favorite anme is, and I say Doraemon.
but really, this is a good anime that teaches children lessons, and probably a classic if you enjoy classics. It's a long anime, sure, but worth it. Every episode is completely stand alone, and easy to pick up, easy to put down without being confused because there really is no story in each of them.
