Anyone watch this as a kid?
Nobita was literally retarded.
>>140414614
Still watch it time to time
And when a new movie releases
Didnt watch that but i did watch crayon shinchan as a baby. In colombia they would show all the new anime on some japanese channel that my uncle had. It was pretty great.
>>140414614
I read the manga when I was a kid.
I think this already became a household name in my country by now, along with DBZ and Case Closed/Detective Conan.
>>140414614
me.
>>140414614
Doraemon, Conan, Chibi Maruko and some power rangers/ sentai shits made my childhood.
I started reading manga when I was 6. Doraemon and Dragon Balls are the very first. I only started watching anime when I reached 23, because I wandered in a K-On thread 5 years ago.
>>140414614
>watch
read it pleb
I hated every character with all my heart but still watched it daily.
Satan's passport was the best.
>>140414614
>grew up believing doraemon will come to me 1 day
i remember wanting a robot cat like doraemon but not because of his gadgets but as a friend
>>140415245
You have to make/buy one first, then send it to your past self.
>>140415245
This. Doraemon is a true bro.
>>140414695
I hated Nobita as a kid. I crumpled his face on the last page of a particularly annoying chapter and my sister got mad at me for messing the book up.
>>140414614
My uncle bought me the first localised tankoubon release when I was 6-7
My very first manga
>>140414614
all nips
>>140414614
Watched it dubbed in fucking Spanish with Portuguese subtitles
Loved it, it's one of the pillars of my childhood animations along with Digimon 01-03 and Captain Tsubasa
>>140415403
He was an insufferable autistic crybaby, even my mom who rented the VHS tapes weekly for me back then was tired of his shit.
>>140415307
i wish the fan made ending was canon. i remember when i was small i always asked my dad to get a desk with drawer so doraemon could come.
>>140415580
We didn't have sliding door closets at home, but when we came across one in the hotel I insisted on sleeping inside it like Doraemon. Then just came out 1 hour later because it was hot as fuck inside.
Did anyone catch the recent English dub? Despite the name changes and slight censorship, it's actually pretty good.
>>140414614
If you live in the eastern hemisphere, this guy was a big part of everyone's childhood.
I have the complete tankoubon and the original daichohen saga when I was roughly in 5th grade.
Still watch it on Sunday mornings when I have the time.
>>140415509
Same, doraemon was basically our spanish teacher growing up, for us portufags.

Religiously read and watched it for a while.
Haven't caught all of the newer anime series and movies though.
>>140414614

Wonder why Doraemon hadn't reached the US til recently?

Doraemon was the only comic book title I cared about buying in the news-stands.
>>140416646
Definitely the "Go Anywhere Door" [pic].
>>140414614
And yat anshin, Yaiba, Arc the lad and other shit.
I wtach the 80' version for Shizuka
Is this a hidden Matsu fest? Cause you know,Nobita.
Is it really true the movie is the closure of the whole franchise? Storyline I mean, and not production line.
Inspector Gadget was better
>>140417761
stand by me? no, it's just an adaptation of a certain arc
>>140417437
the new one is catchy too
the best movie was the 2006 one, Nobita dinosaur arc. It made me cried at the last part. The rest of the doraemon 2007+ movies are trash thou. 3D one was ok
>>140414614
Still watching it only if I can wake up at Sunday morning (mostly I don't)
>>140417437
>pintu ke mana saja
Isn't now night over there?
>>140417361
I don't even know the context of this, yet Doraemon's face made me explode in laughter at first glance.
>>140418333
23:14hrs right now yo.
>>140414614
Where did this even come out besides Japan? Because I doubt we have that many Nipponese here.
>>140418464
The passed down to the rest of asia apparently.
>>140418564
It did. A channel here, NTV7, airs it every Saturday 1930hrs, reruns every Friday morning...before that it was a long runner on the public TV station tv1.
Took a flight on the Singapore Airlines once and found that they had some eps on the in-flight entertainment system as well.They were subbed, not a problem with that...but the subs were in Mandarin. Much disappointment...I thought the text was to be in English.
>>140418464
No, it was just USA, Canada and few other places. Pretty much the rest of the world knows the existence of Doraemon a long, long time ago.
>>140421450
I've known that it existed at least 15 years ago, but just thought of it as that really popular show in Japan that no one else cares for.
Though Wikipedia says there have been Spanish and some SEA dubs as well. Plus some more recent ones, but those wouldn't be childhood memories for people allowed to post here.
>>140414614
Nomy country had the good anime
Do you guys think Hagushichao stands up against the classic Doraemon OPs?
Yeah. I used to have a big collection of the comic, too.
>>140422472
I mean, it is much longer than 15 years. It reached Italy since the 80's along with other anime.
It just amuses me than there was nobody that believed Doraemon could be sold in the country full of immigrants like USA back then.
>>140414847
>Chibi Maruko
This anime is so obscure outside of Japan.
>>140423829
I mean I was aware of the series by 2001 or before, I just didn't know it was a thing outside of Japan then.
We got Shin-chan and Chibi Maruko-chan here though. About 50 episodes of them.
>>140418333
1:00 AM doesn't mean shit if you're a NEET.
>>140422472
It's literally Asian's childhood memories. Even my mother watched it.
>>140424179
Get out moregan
>>140423900
It hopped channels in my place, from NTV7 to Astro Ceria [pay-TV channel geared to kids]. Even when it settled there, it didn't bring in as much viewership as Tsurupika Hagemaru-kun did - now that was Ceria's top seller a couple of years ago.
>>140414614
I watched it in the mornings before going to school.
It has been broadcast almost every weekday morning since around 1994 in my local TV station.
>>140424331
It's so obscure, most of /a/ won't even know what it is.
>>140422472
You know absolutely nothing about eastern countries then. Practically all of Asia that had working TVs and VHS knew about Doraemon ages ago, before you were even born.
>>140418333
>>140424179
I actually did had a small nap in the afternoon...so yeah, explains me being an owl right now.
>>140414614
Yup. Doraemon is still basically the our national mascot in Taiwan, or something close to it. I don't think I realized he was Japanese in origin until I was four or five.
>>140417567
Shit, where did you live? Haven't heard anyone else mention YAT Anshin! in years.
>>140415991
It really was. They really had all the characters down perfect. Mona Marshall and JYB really shined as Doraemon and Nobita. Even giving Shizuka a little more snark and wit than she does in Japanese worked out in it's favor. The edits got slightly more maddening in the second season, but it was still enjoyable.
>That feel when Disney XD hasn't aired the show since October
>No rips of anything past the 39th of 52 eps available online since the ripper was slow
Unless the Japanese owners in charge of the English dub put it on Netflix (they really fucking should), it's dead before it even really got a chance to start here, we'll never see the English version of Stand By Me, and it'll be sad seeing "literally who" responses when Doraemon is trotted out at the 2020 Olympics.
At least a based Singaporean helped me out by helping import the first 4 volumes of the physical version of the Amazon Digital-only English translation that was only available in SEA. (Come on, Shogakukan Asia, stop slacking and put out new volumes!)
>>140417318
There were various attempts to bring it to America since the mid 80s. The first attempt was cancelled right before it made it to the airwaves. The rest of the attempts consisted of companies couldn't even get their foot in the door. So Japan had to take it into their own hands.
>>140416646
Definitely the TV Birdlime (terebi torimochi), the gadget that allows you to take things out of the TV and make them real.
>>140424838
not really
>>140425624
I never heard of it until I looked for it myself after reading a most obscure anime thread.

Looks like it and I'm quite sure most of /a/ doesn't know the anime exists.
>>140425740
Now American kids will called dorayaki "Yummy Bun".
At least they don't localize it to red bean donut or something, and it is actually yummy.
>>140424331
>Hagemaru
Now that's nostalgic, it didn't air here but the manga was also published in my place.
>>140425485
Was Stand By Me dubbed in English? I remember seeing a trailer of it on Youtube at one point, but I don't know if it was fanmade or not.
>>140417437
>tfw still can't get used to the new OP because I love the old OP so much
At least the song was nice.

I heard a bunch of SEA countries still run the old OP on the top of the new series.
Yume no Kanaete is the 2nd OP of the new series I believe. The 1st OP is kinda bad.
If you don't think Doraemon is the tightest shit then get the fuck out of my face.

It was screened at the 2014 Tokyo International Film Festival, using the same English VA as the series, of course.

>>140425884
I'm still surprised that they actually said it was dorayaki in the first episode.
It's far better than "fudgy pudgy pies" used in the English digital version of the manga.
>>140426565
>Did they sell dvds or something
I should've phrased it better...I meant that the channel loved + heavily promoted the show like Nick did with SpongeBob or something like that. (I'm not sure how frequent though, because again...
> a couple of years ago
...so my memory's kinda fuzzy. Also, uni happened.)
No DVDs I'm afraid...though that would've been a great idea.
