Since its inception in 1969 as a 45-volume manga series by Fujiko F. Fujio, the earless robotic cat, Doraemon, with a fourth-dimensional belly pocket full of gadgets, has been beloved by many. The Doraemon series follows the titular blue cat as he travels from the 22nd century to help a ten-year-old schoolboy named Nobita Nobi so his future great-great-grandson, Sewashi Nobi, can have a better life.

Though this promo is one of many for the dozens of films the third anime iteration has gotten, Doraemon: Nobita’s Picture World Story ranked #1 at the box office on opening weekend.
