Doraemon was turned into an anime television show in 1973. It still is being shown on television. As of 1996, about 100 million comic books have been sold. A Japanese-to-English version of the original called Doraemon: Gadget Cat from the Future was published from 2002. A local translation is published in each Asian country such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and Vietnam. It is in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, but it is not as popular as it is in Asia. Doraemon is endorsed by 7-11 in Thailand as a mascot.

Doraemon was a yellow cat with nice fluffy ears and he lived in the future but when robot mice ate his ears while he was sleeping, he was forced to remove the part of the ear that was left. He cried so much that the chemical in his tears reacted with his skin turning to blue from yellow. He was then forced to come to the present age to help Nobita but soon, he started loving Nobita like his own brother.
