Doraemon (ドラえもん?)[3] is a Japanese manga series created by Fujiko F.

Fujio (the pen name of

Hiroshi Fujimoto) and Fujiko A. Fujio (the pen name of Motō Abiko) which later became an anime series
and an Asian franchise. The series is about a robotic cat named Doraemon, who travels back in time
from the 22nd century to aid a schoolboy, Nobita Nobi (野比 のび太 Nobi Nobita?).

The series first appeared in December 1969, when it was published simultaneously in six different
magazines. In total, 1,344 stories were created in the original series, which are published by
Shogakukan under the Tentōmushi (てんとう虫?) manga brand, extending to forty-five volumes. The
volumes are collected in the Takaoka Central Library in Toyama, Japan, where both Fujiko Fujio were
born. Viz Media bought the license to the Doraemon manga in the 1990s for an English-language
release, but ultimately decided not to publish it due to the possible controversy surrounding its content.

However, Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur 2006 (The 26th film in the franchise) got a private
screening in Washington D.C. in November 2008.

A majority of Doraemon episodes are comedies with moral lessons regarding values such as integrity,
perseverance, courage, family and respect for elders. Several noteworthy environmental issues are
often visited, including homeless animals, global warming, endangered species, deforestation, and
pollution. Miscellaneous educational topics such as dinosaurs, the flat Earth theory, wormhole traveling,
Gulliver's Travels, and the history of Japan are often covered.

Doraemon was awarded the Japan Cartoonists Association Award for excellence in 1973. Doraemon
was awarded the first Shogakukan Manga Award for children's manga in 1982,[4] and the first Osamu
Tezuka Culture Award in 1997. In March 2008, Japan's Foreign Ministry appointed Doraemon as the
nation's first "anime ambassador."[5] Ministry spokesman explained the novel decision as an attempt to
help people in other countries to understand Japanese anime better and to deepen their interest in
Japanese culture."[6] The Foreign Ministry action confirms that Doraemon has come to be considered a
Japanese cultural icon. In 2002, the anime character was acclaimed as an Asian Hero in a special
feature survey

" Kudou Shinichi is a high school student who, by using observation and deduction, is good
at solving mysteries. While investigating one, he is caught by the criminals that he was
watching and forced to take an experimental drug. Leaving him for dead, the criminals
disappear. Instead of killing him, however, the drug turns Shinichi into a little kid. To
preserve the illusion of his 'disappearance', Shinichi adopts a new name based on his favorite
author (Arthur Conan Doyle and Edogawa Ranpo) and becomes Edogawa Conan.
Ran, his (actually Shinichi's) childhood friend takes this little boy under her wing and brings
him to her home. Conan now lives at a detective agency run by Ran's father, but his mind
is as keen as ever and he continues to solve mysteries...always allowing Ran's father to take
all the credit. As far as everyone's concerned, Conan is just a little kid anyway...even to
Ran. This is *extremely* frustrating to Conan since nobody will listen to a 'little boy'. In
spite of this, Conan has a mission...to find the criminals who did this to him and get the
antidote to that drug. Shinichi Kudo, Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri, Eisuke Hondo, Eri

Jimmy Kudo, a 17-year-old high school prodigy and detective who frequently worked with
the police, was attacked by two members of a mysterious crime syndicate while investigating
a case regarding blackmail. He was then forced to take a newly developed experimental
poison that was supposed to kill him, but due to a rare side-effect unknown to the two men,
the drug transformed his body back into that of his seven-year-old self instead, after they left
him for dead.[4] In order to hide his identity and investigate the whereabouts of the syndicate,
which he later finds out is called the Black Organization, he adopts the pseudonym Conan
Edogawa.[5] To search for leads to the syndicate, he manages to move in with his childhood
friend Rachel Moore, whose father, Richard Moore, works as a private investigator.[5] He also
enrolls at Teitan elementary school and forms the Junior Detective League with three other
children in his class; Amy Yoshida, Mitch Tsuburaya, and George Kojima.[6] Even as Conan,
Jimmy continues solving criminal cases, usually posing as Richard Moore with the help of
special gadgets, invented by his neighboor and friend, Dr. Agasa. Richard Moore, a rather
inept detective, is bewildered at the sudden rise in his case-solving abilities, but does not
question this as he is more than glad about his subsequent rise in fame.

Later in the series, another main character, Anita Hailey, appears. A former member of the
Black Organization, codenamed "Sherry", she is actually Shiho Miyano, a gifted chemist who
developed the poison APTX 4869 which turned Jimmy back into a child.[7] After her sister
was brutally murdered by members of the Black Organization, she tried to get out and was
held captive.[7] She then attempted to commit suicide by taking a dose of APTX 4869, but
instead was transformed into a child as well, and managed to escape from them.[7] She then
enrolled in Conan's school under the pseudonym Anita Hailey.[7] She knows Conan's true
identity and helps him in his quest to bring down the Black Organization.[7]

Later on, Conan becomes involved with the FBI, and they are able to capture Kir, a member
of the Black Organization. Kir is later revealed to be an undercover CIA agent, and promises
to relay information about the Black Organization to the FBI.[8] They return Kir to the
organization. Later, she tells the FBI that the Black Organization has a new member codena

Dora Marquez

Dora, the main character, is a young girl who embarks on a trip in every episode in order to
find something or help somebody. She asks the viewers at home to help her find new ways to
reach places with the help of Map. She also teaches viewers Spanish, introducing them to
short words and phrases.

Dora has a positive view of the characters she meets, failing even to hold a grudge against the
mischievous fox, Swiper, who continually attempts to steal items from her party. She acts
against villains only when it seems that compromise is impossible, and even in these cases,
fails to display actual anger. She gives others a chance to try their hands at tasks even when
she herself might have an easier time with them. Dora values her family, whom she loves
openly, though she spends little time indoors at home with them. She tries to introduce her
traditions and customs, subtly and without compulsion, to those who are not familiar with
them.

Dora is fond of Boots, who became her best friend when she saved his beloved red boots
from being swiped by Swiper.

Dora enjoys sports. She played on a baseball team with Boots and her other friends and was
coached by her father (who has never been depicted as having other employment). She loves
and excels at soccer. Dora is also a musician, skilled at playing a wooden flute.

The character was voiced by Kathleen Herles until she was replaced by Caitlin Sanchez[1].

Dora is a Latina. Early concepts of Dora had her as a blond girl of European ancestry. The
character was originally based on a niece, Lilli, of Rick Velleu, one of the creators of the
show.[citation needed]
