Doraemon, a well-known Japanese comic book character, was created by Fujiko F. Fujio in 1969. It was first made into animation in 1973. Ever since its creation, Doraemon has been valued in Japan and many other countries for its recreational and educational benefits. Doraemon is a robot cat traveling back in time from the twenty-second century to the present in order to help a boy named Nobita, a fifth grader. Unlike normal cats, Doraemon does not have ears. He has a blue body, caused by a mouse bite, an event that later indirectly had his body metal taken off. As is known, Doraemon eats and sleeps like a normal person and his favorite food is dorayaki, a Japanese treat filled with red bean paste. Among many of Doraemon's fantastic gadgets, the fourth-dimensional pocket is definitely the most eye-catching one. Whenever it is necessary, Doraemon can take out from this magic pocket inestimable kinds of futuristic tools, such as "Anywhere Door," "Take-copter," "Gulliver Tunnel," and "Time Cloth," to name but a very few. Interestingly, some great inventions in this day and age have literally been created after Doraemon's gadgets. One of the major themes in the comic book Doraemon is the discussion of Nobita's personality. Despite Nobita's disability to handle daily life well, Doraemon encourages him in one way or another to fight for what he needs. Doraemon knows that despite his many flaws, Nobita is honest and kind-hearted, and sometimes even courageous when his beloved ones are in danger, including Shizuka of course, a neighborhood girl whom he has a crush on. Today, Doraemon continues to provide children with laughter and imagination. It is popular not only in Japan but also in many other parts of the world.
