永遠的哆啦A夢

擁有一只自己的機器貓曾是無數人兒時的夢想。現在，完結8年《哆啦A夢》再度回歸、推出新刊，讓我們再一起重溫這部經典之作吧！

Most of the Doraemon stories start with protagonist Nobita Nobi， always running home in tears， crying “Doraemon！ Do something！” The fourth-grade boy， who lives in a subsection of Tokyo， is the weakest and least intelligent child in his class. But sometimes， he can be really responsible. But despite his flaws， Nobita is one of the neighborhood’s nicest and most sensitive children， and it is his desire to see justice done that drives the best Doraemon stories. It is probably why Doraemon himself and fans do not fling up their hands in defeat.

《哆啦A夢》系列中大部分的故事都是圍繞主人公野比大雄展開的：他總是哭著跑回家，喊著“哆啦A夢！做點兒什么來幫我！”這位四年級的小學生住在東京市郊區，是班上成績最差、腦子最笨的孩子。但有時，他又真的能負責任。但除了他的不足之處，大雄是鄰里中的最乖巧懂事、最善解人意的小孩之一，而正是他追求正義的愿望成就了最棒的《哆啦A夢》系列。這可能也是哆啦A夢自己和它的粉絲們面對挫折時不會輕言放棄的原因。

Doraemon is a cat-like robot from the future， the 22nd century to be exact. His favorite food is dorayaki， a sweet-bean-paste-filled bun. He is afraid of mice and hates rats， as his ears were chewed off by rats.

Asides from its attractiveness in spirit， Doraemon has a simple storyline. One day， a strange being pops up in Nobita’s desk drawer—a round， blue cat-style robot “Doraemon”， who was sent by Nobita’s descendant from the future to help prevent him from making mistakes.

哆啦A夢是一只外形似貓的機器人，來自22世紀。他最愛的食物是銅鑼燒，一種夾著甜豆沙的烤面餅。他害怕也討厭老鼠，因為他的耳朵被機器鼠咬掉了。

《哆啦A夢》雖然有著吸引人的精神力量，但是它有一個簡單的故事情節。一天，一個圓頭呆腦的藍色機器貓“哆啦A夢”突然出現在大雄書桌的抽屜里，這只機器貓其實是大雄的后代從未來送來防止他犯錯誤的。
