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 smoking.

The voice actors to the five main characters, Doraemon, Nobita, Shizuka, Gian, and Suneo, were chosen from a pool of 590 applicants.

There are notable visual and script changes between the Japanese version and the English version. Some changes include Americanized name changes (only Doraemon and Dorami's names are unchanged from the Japanese) that are mostly equivalent to the English version of the manga, except for a few differences (i.e. Shizuka's name, which is unchanged in the English version of manga but changed to "Sue" in the dub), the use of American history, and new English openings and endings. American culture and customs are present (although 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), as well as translated gadget names.

American culture and customs are present (although 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), as well as translated gadget names. All the background music was replaced with new background music, along with all the sound effects since TV Asahi disallowed international distribution of the series' Japanese audio track.


Onscreen edits and additions also include [[omurice]] being replaced with pancakes, and chopsticks changed to forks. Doraemon's favorite treat, [[dorayaki]], are referred to as "yummy buns" ("fudgy pudgy pies" in the English version of the manga), although they are referred to by their proper Japanese name in episode one. [[Japanese yen]] notes have been converted to [[U.S. dollar]] bills, Japanese check marks have been replaced with American crosses to indicate mistakes on a test, and an "F" letter grade has been added to better explain the "0" mark. To remove a representation of the Christian cross, bandages in the episode "Transform! Dracula Set" (aka "Noby's Turn at Bat") have been removed, and a first-aid kit has been replaced by pizza. In the episode "Run! Bamboo Horse" (aka "The Skyhorse!"), Nobita's streams of tears have been removed. Japanese signs have been replaced such as "Gōda Shōten" (Gōda's Shop) to "Goda's Goods," in the episode "Doraemon's 100-Year Time Capsule" (aka "Doraemon's Time Capsule"), and the contents of the time capsule have been replaced.<ref name="Doraemon Anime">{{cite web|url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-05-11/doraemon-anime-visual-and-script-changes-for-u.s-tv-detailed|title=Doraemon Anime's Visual & Script Changes for U.S. TV Detailed|publisher=[[Anime News Network]]|date=May 11, 2014|accessdate=June 12, 2015}}</ref> Nudity in one episode, "Transformade", has been dealt with by adding computer-generated steam or cloud effects, though it is still implied that the character is nude.

At least one character's personality was also partially rewritten. Shizuka 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.
Elsewhere, an ishiyaki imo (sweet potatoes baked on stones) stand is now a [[kettle corn]] truck. Other food changes, such as fewer sweets (including Doraemon's iconic dorayaki) and more fruits onscreen (i.e. changing [[mochi]] to apple slices), have been made due to American broadcasting standards to promote healthy eating on children's programming. Since Doraemon lost his ears, he gets angry when people often mistake him for a [[Tanuki]] (Japanese raccoon-dog) in the original story. However, since raccoon-dogs outside Japan do not look round and fat as they do in Japanese folklore, Doraemon gets mistaken for a seal in the dub.<ref name="Doraemon Anime"/>

The English dub has been received favorably by American fans of the franchise, and has gained a cult following as of October 2014 {{Citation needed|date=January 2015}}.

At least one character's personality was also partially rewritten. Shizuka Minamoto's English-dubbed equivalent, Sue, is portrayed as more tomboyish and athletic than in the original (although her sweet nature and kind personality were not changed) - reportedly because her traditionally Japanese habits were perceived as being difficult for American children to understand in test viewings of the original series – and the English dub features no reference to her trademark love of bathing, which is edited out due to nudity.

A unique U.S. opening sequence has been compiled from footage from the Japanese version. To explain the premise of the story, a spoken explanation by Doraemon about "why he came from the future" is utilized rather than an actual opening song. The ending song is an instrumental played over scenes from the Japanese opening ''Yume wo kanaete Doraemon'' (Make My Dream Come True, Doraemon). The theme song, other songs (Doraemon and Nobita sing "[[On Top of Spaghetti]]" in one episode), and sound effects have been adapted to be easier for American children to empathize, and also since TV Asahi has disallowed international distribution of the series' Japanese audio track. The entirety of episode one in the English version, depicting Nobita and Doraemon's first meeting, is actually excerpted from a flashback scene in a later Japanese episode. Dialogue is also not just literally translated, but adapted for entertainment's sake and to fit a natural speaking rhythm. However, Gian's infamous "Ore no mono wa ore no mono, omae no mono mo ore no mono" catchphrase is rendered more or less without changes as "What's mine is mine, what's yours is mine!"<ref name="Doraemon Anime"/>

Doraemon (ドラえもん, Doraemon) is the most recent anime series based on Fujiko Fujio's manga of the same name. Produced by Shin-Ei Animation, it began airing on TV Asahi on April 15, 2005.

An edited English dub produced by Bang Zoom! Entertainment has been airing on Disney XD in the United States since July 7, 2014 and has been given a TV-Y7 rating.[1][2] A second season of the dubbed version began airing on June 15, 2015. Nine episodes of the English dub later aired on Disney XD (Canada) in August 2015 and was eventually removed from the network.

An alternate English dub produced by LUK Internacional aired on Boomerang in the United Kingdom on August 17, 2015. The dub was removed in October, but later returned to the channel from December 2015 to January 2016.[3]

Production

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 smoking.

Like its predecessor, some episodes adapted a particular chapter from the manga twice. For an example, the episode "The Time Machine Disappeared!!" originally aired in 2005, while its remake, with updated character designs and animation, aired in 2013.

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.[4]

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 timeslot. Since May 1, 2009 the series airs in high definition.

US English dub

An American adaptation of the 2005 series produced by Bang Zoom! Entertainment and distributed by Viz Media has been airing on Disney XD since July 7, 2014. It 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").

There are notable visual and script changes between the Japanese version and the English version. Some changes include Americanized name changes (only Doraemon and Dorami's names are unchanged from the Japanese) that are mostly equivalent to the English version of the manga, except for a few differences (i.e. Shizuka's name, which is unchanged in the English version of manga but changed to "Sue" in the dub), episodes being re-ordered, the use of American history, and some episodes having several minutes of footage cut. American culture and customs are present (although 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), as well as translated gadget names. All the background music was replaced with new background music, along with all the sound effects since TV Asahi disallowed international distribution of the series' Japanese audio track.

Onscreen edits and additions also include omurice being replaced with pancakes, and chopsticks changed to forks. Doraemon's favorite treat, dorayaki, are referred to as "yummy buns" ("fudgy pudgy pies" in the English version of the manga), although they are referred to by their proper Japanese name in episode 1. Japanese yen notes have been converted to U.S. dollar bills, Japanese check marks have been replaced with American crosses to indicate mistakes on a test, and an "F" letter grade has been added to better explain the "0" mark. Representations of Christianity have been removed, and all Japanese text being translated into English.[5] Nudity has been heavily censored by adding computer-generated steam or cloud effects[6], as well as adding clothing, such as a tank top.[7]

At least one character's personality was also partially rewritten. Shizuka 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.

The English dub has been received favorably by American fans of the franchise, and has gained a cult following as of October 2014 [citation needed]. Some Doraemon merchandise has been announced for a US release in addition to the existing manga release. On February 13, 2015, Bandai America announced that they picked up the toy merchandising rights to the Doraemon franchise.

The second season of the English dub premiered on Disney XD on June 15, 2015[8] and ended on September 1.

It was announced that the Americanized version would be reimported 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 Americanized version as a secondary audio feed.[9][10]

UK English dub

LUK Internacional has picked up the English version of the series for the United Kingdom market, and aired the series on Boomerang on August 17, 2015.[11][12] Similarly to the US version, all names were translated, but the original opening, ending and audiotrack were retained. The dub was recorded in Hong Kong by Omni Productions.[13]

Plot

Doraemon is a cat-like robot who appears in the present to steer Nobita/Noby, a dumb, naive and clumsy boy, on the right path in order to secure his future. Nobita's love interest is Shizuka Minamoto/Sue and his frenemies are Takeshi Goda/Big G and Suneo/Sneech, and Hidetoshi Dekisugi/Ace Goody.
