Each episode features Doraemon showing Nobita a cool gadget from the 22nd Century to help him overcome the main conflict in the episode.

Preliminary (7/? eps)

Doraemon has been my childhood throughout the years and it's quite nice to remake the series to change the artstyle to a more Fujiko Fujio artstyle, restricting some of the bad stuff kids might get involved, etc.

**STORY** - 8/10
The story is pretty simple. Nobita is a very lazy student. Doraemon shows up, and helps Nobita anything. Trying to stand up for Gian and Suneo, trying to impress Shizuka, trying to improve his grades, and sometimes just for fun. But usually ends up him to fail. Then it just goes like that for mostly every single episode. It's a slice-of-life anime, it's not that deep.

**ART** - ... 9/10
I adored this art because it's simple but charming. The animation is also pretty simple, but it's sometimes a bit choppy.

**SOUND** - 8/10
Well...the voice actors changed, but I don't blame them, since they worked hard enough. The sound effects are great, nothing else to say about it. The opening songs are great, but the Yume Wo Kanaete song is a bit overused, my favorite song is "Doraemon" by Gen Hoshino.

**CHARACTERS** - 7/10
They don't feel unique, but considering the manga started in 1969, i'll give it a pass. Some other characters are unique, some are not. They're simple. Just as it is.

**ENJOYMENT** - 10/10
While there are flaws, I really enjoy the episodes, no matter how repetitive they are. I like how everytime Doraemon's gadgets are mostly different!

**OVERALL** - 10/10
My beloved childhood. Give this a chance, it's sometimes pretty funny.

I was in Japan when this new series start. At first it was hard to like the new seiyuu with me following the old series in Japanese for 4 years. Howeer overtime I can accept it, especially how they remake stories from the 1979 series, with better angle for cinematography, improvement and expansion of plot when necessary, as well better soundtracks.
Speaking about soundtracks, there are many catchy tunes that became the filler song in the series, however, among them, "Friend of the Heart" would be my top favorite, regarded having a funny lyric aside from a fun melody.
It is a series that would be highly ... recommended for you who like to spend time with your children and having them to learn simple Japanese.

i watch this with my grandson ryugo, it's very funny and endearing! His favorite episode was episode 3 but he also really liked episode 2. The time machine was very cool. After episode 3, he kept yelling inside the house like doraemon, waking up his brother. I fell asleep on the couch in episode 3 though so i can't really talk about it. Ryugo was all about it though! The pacing can be slow sometimes, but the characters are very well done which helps make up for it. After episode 5 we went outside and played catch and he wouldn't stop talking about it. I've ... never seen him so animated in my life. This show is truly a blessing for my family, it will go down in anime history as a classic family show.
