Line 20:
* ''Doraemon: Nobita's Parallel "Journey to the West"'' — The historical [[Journey to the West]], with sci-fi elements.
* ''Doraemon: Nobita at the Birth of Japan'' — The kids' desire to create a prehistoric Utopia interferes with a villain from the future's plan to rule it.
* ''Doraemon: Nobita and the Animal Planet'' — A dimensional portal to the planet of Animals was found, and they're being attacked by [[Humans Are
* ''Doraemon: Nobita in Dorabian Nights'' — The [[Arabian Nights]] tales, with sci-fi elements.
* ''Doraemon: Nobita and the Kingdom of Clouds'' — The kids' desire to create a sky-bound Utopia interferes with the sky people's plan to cleanse the Earth of human, [[The Bible|Biblical]] style.
Line 47:
** The remake episode of the Lying Mirror pronounce this much more.
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: In the anime, Shizuka hair was brown. Even though the manga cover shows her hair as black. Changed back to black in the 2005 anime.
* [[Animated Adaptation]]: Three of them, in
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: Doraemon's dimensional pocket full of "Dogu".
* [[Art Evolution]]: Oh god yes. Amusingly, one of the reasons they rebooted the anime series in 2005 was to give the character designs a quick makeover. (And to let some of the voice actors retire after ''30 years'' of the same roles.)
Line 53:
* [[Bag of Holding]]: Doraemon owns one - Other robots similar to Doraemon also seem to have one as well.
* [[Bamboo Technology]]: "Hai! Takekoputaa!" The iconic ''take-copter'' literally means a "bamboo helicopter".
* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Averted quite a
* [[The Bermuda Triangle]]: In one [[Non-Serial Movie]], the heroes discover that the anomalies in this region are because of the Triangle being part of an ancient force-field, home to an AI gone insane.
* [[The Bible]]: Referenced surprisingly a lot for a sci-fi title. Most of them revolve around [[Magic From Technology|creating Biblical miracles with future technology]]. And [[Sufficiently Advanced Alien|playing God]].
Line 97:
* [[Girl of the Week]]: The movies, especially later ones, where there will be a token girl even though the main focus isn't on her at all.
* [[Green Aesop]] : Used frequently in the movies. In most stories, and especially in movies, human destroying the environment won't result in a disaster on its own; that would take too long. Chances are, alien civilization will plot to intervene and destroy humans first to prevent said environmental disaster from happening.
* [[Humans Are
* [[I Am Not Weasel]]: A running gag when someone first meets him, they think he's a tanuki. This makes Doraemon [[Berserk Button|really mad]] since he's a robotic cat without ears.
* [[Identical Grandson]]: Taken to ridiculous extreme. All of the main cast has ''almost-look-exactly-the-same parents, siblings, relatives, ancestors and descendants''.
Line 108:
* [[Lethal Chef]]: Gian's cooking is just as bad as his singing. Or may be worse. The most common result is food-poisoning. He even accidentally poisoned himself in one episode, much to the relief of his friends.
* [[Licensed Game]]: Unavoidable, but were surprisingly good.
* [[Literal Genie]]: The Anywhere Door can be a bit of this when requesting locations (for example, "I want to go camping somewhere high" will result you stepping out into the air). Several other tools are similar, including one that "makes the listener believe anything" (Nobita uses it to remove Shizuka's [[Innocent Fanservice Girl|nudity taboo]]
* [[Long Runners]]: The manga ran for 45 volumes from December 1969 until 1996, while the anime has run for more than 2100 episodes from 1979 until the present day (plus an unpopular and now-lost series in 1973).
** On March 25, 2005, the 1979 series ended after 1,787 episodes. Not even a month later, on April 15, a new updated Doraemon anime began broadcasting and has been broadcasting ever since.
Line 116:
* [[Monster Roommate]]
* [[Naked People Are Funny]]: All nudity of the boys, Shizuka's constant bath scenes, and her numerous [[Panty Shot|panty shots]]... technically not [[Fan Service]], instead they're [[Played for Laughs]]. After all, they're just kids.
* [[No Ending]]: Quite possibly, which ends up having the fans create their own endings in doujin comics. One [[Happily Ever After|happy ending]]<ref>Doraemon's battery fails, and without his ears, they can't swap it out without wiping his brain. Not only that, the time police have placed an absolute embargo on anyone interfering in any way with Nobita and the now-unconscious Doraemon. Rather than swap his battery, which would effectively kill him, Nobita spends the next ''35 years'' becoming the world's foremost expert in robotics in order to save him, marrying Shizuka on the way. But as his friends figure out, it was all a [[Stable Time Loop]] -- the technology that Doraemon was bringing back was way, way too advanced unless something [[The Singularity|remarkable happens]] to jump-start the technology -- like Dr. Nobita Nobi reverse engineering Doraemon enough to fix him.</ref> (which was legendarily [[Jossed]] [http://zepy.momotato.com/2007/05/29/author-to-pay-settlement-for-doraemon-doujinshi/ from orbit, with nuclear fire] by the publishers due to the art being picture perfect to the original series and the ending being more or less beloved by the entire fanbase) and two [[Downer Ending
** The Fujiko duo did try to end the series when it appeared that the franchise was losing popularity in the early 70s, resulting in the final story in Volume 6 of the manga. When the franchise suddenly picked up in popularity again shortly after the release of the said volume, they were forced to [[Retcon]] that particular story in the first story of Volume 7 of the manga.
** The 1973 series did have an ending, where Doraemon returned to the future and Nobita promised him to grow up to be successful.
** The two [[Downer Ending
* [[Non-Serial Movie]]: See the list above.
* [[Nostalgia Filter]]: Considering Nobita has a time machine in his desk, this gets occasionally brought up.
