Doraemon (ドラえもん Doraemon?) is the most recent anime TV series based on Fujiko F. Fujio's manga of the same name. Produced by Shin-Ei Animation and Asatsu-DK, it began airing on TV Asahi on April 15, 2005. It also airs in over 50 countries worldwide.

This Doraemon anime series is sometimes referred to in Asia as the Mizuta Edition (水田版), after Wasabi Mizuta, the voice actress who voices Doraemon in this series.[2]

The anime is licensed by Viz Media for broadcast rights only. An English dub produced by Bang Zoom! Entertainment aired on Disney XD in the USA as Doraemon: Gadget Cat From the Future from July 7, 2014 until May 12, 2017.[3][4] A second season of the English dub premiered on Disney XD on June 15, 2015[5] and ended on September 1 of the same year. Disney Channel July 7, 2014 to May 12, 2019

TV Asahi currently holds distribution and licensing rights to Doraemon. However, they mentioned that due to the show's success in India, they would be continuing their contract with Disney Channel India for Doraemon to air in India. Doraemon is also streaming on Disney+ Hotstar. They also noted the show's success in Spain, Portugal and the rest of Europe.

Cast of the 2005 version with art style used since July 2017

Although the series is more faithful to the original manga, some changes were made. Many of the episodes that adapted chapters from the manga were extended to have a better conclusion or a good moral to the story. In addition, some elements from the manga were toned down. Some examples include all of Doraemon's gadgets that resembled medicine being changed to different appliances, and Nobita's dad (who smoked often in the manga) rarely smoked.

The voice actors to the five main characters, Doraemon, Nobita, Shizuka, Gian, and Suneo, were chosen from a pool of 590 applicants. TV Asahi stated in 2005 that they chose voice actors who sounded similar to the voice actors of the predecessor, so that there would not be a significant change from the original cast to the new cast.[6]

All mini corners, partners, and next episodes previews in all episodes are cut to fit for the 30-minute block in international versions except in Hong Kong, which are cut to fit for the 15-minute block in its time-slot. Since May 1, 2009 the series airs in high definition. In July 2017 the show got an animation update which includes the use of poster art as well as changes in Nobita's room etc. As of 2019 the show now airs on Saturday nights alongside a new theme song.

US English dub

A US English dub of the 2005 series produced by Fujiko F. Fujio Pro, TV Asahi, Bang Zoom! Entertainment, and distributed by Viz Media has been airing on Disney XD since July 7, 2014 under the name Doraemon: Gadget Cat from the Future. In Australia, it started airing on 26 January 2015 on Network Ten. Later it moved in Australia to Cartoon Network and Boomerang, which are also available in New Zealand.[7] In Canada, it briefly aired on Disney XD's Canadian feed before being re-branded as Family CHRGD. The dub features veteran anime voice actress Mona Marshall in the title role of Doraemon and Johnny Yong Bosch as Nobita (known in the dub as "Noby").

The English dub has been heavily modified to meet American broadcasting guidelines, censoring content deemed inappropriate for American children, as well as replacing many Japanese cultural elements with American cultural elements. Some modifications include Americanized character and gadget name changes from the English version of the manga, an episode order completely different from the Japanese episode order, nudity being heavily censored by adding steam, cloud effects, or clothing,[8][9] and some episodes having several minutes of footage cut. However, certain uniquely Japanese characteristics, such as house structure, kneeling on the floor to eat, the driving side of the cars, and Nobita's father's house kimono remain. All the background music and sound effects were replaced with new background music and sound effects deemed easier for American children to "emphasize" with.[4]

At least one character's personality was also partially rewritten. Shizuka (renamed Sue in the English dub) is portrayed as more tomboyish and athletic than the Japanese version, although her sweet nature and kind personality were not changed. This is reportedly because her traditionally Japanese habits were perceived as being difficult for American children to understand in test viewings of the Japanese version.[citation needed]

It was announced that the American version would be re-imported to Japan and aired on Disney Channel Japan starting on February 1, 2016. The network also provides an alternative re-recorded Japanese dub of the version as a secondary audio feed.[10]

UK English dub

The series began broadcast in the United Kingdom on August 17, 2015 on Boomerang.[11]

Plot

Doraemon is a cat-like robot from the future who appears in the present to steer Nobita Nobi, an unintelligent, naive and clumsy boy, on the right path in order to secure his future. Nobita's best friend and love interest is Shizuka Minamoto. His frenemies are Takeshi Goda and Suneo Honekawa.

Opening themes

The series features new opening themes, except for the first one. Most of the international versions of the series only use the third opening theme and their own endings.

The American dub uses its own unique opening sequence that compiles footage from the Japanese version. To explain the premise of the story, a narration by Doraemon about "why he came from the future" is utilized rather than an actual opening theme.[4] The ending theme is an instrumental played over scenes from the third Japanese opening theme.
