Doraemon (also known as Doraemon: Gadget Cat from the Future) is one of several English dubs of ドラえもん (2005). The series was initially announced on May 9, 2014 to have been acquired by Disney Channels Worldwide, where Disney XD would run 26 dubbed episodes beginning in the summer[1]. The dub premiered on Disney XD on July 7, 2014 at 12:30 PM ET; Season 2 premiered on Disney XD on June 15, 2015 at 1:00 PM and finished on September 1, 2015; the series continued in reruns until 2017.

The dub first premiered on Network Ten in Australia on January 26, 2015; later, the dub moved to Boomerang Australia and New Zealand, where the dub aired every day at 4:30 PM. The dub premiered on Disney XD in Canada in August 2015, with new episodes airing at 12:00 PM; interestingly, only 9 episodes of the dub aired before the series was pulled from the schedule. In November 2023, the dub premiered on StarTimes Kids in Africa, airing every day at 10:30 PM with two episodes. Over a year later, the series has begun airing on StarTimes Toons.

Notes[]

  • The dub has been heavily modified to meet American broadcasting guidelines, censoring content deemed inappropriate for American children, as well as replacing many Japanese cultural elements with American cultural elements.
    • All of the music in the dub has been redone. The theme song was replaced with a new intro where narration provided by Doraemon explains the plot of the series.
    • Many Japanese food names were replaced with English names. Dorayaki are instead called "Yummy Buns", omurice is now called "pancakes", ishiyaki imo stands have been replaced by kettle-corn stands and mochi has been changed into apple slices.
    • Japanese yen has been replaced by US dollar bills.
    • Most Japanese signage and Japanese text has been removed or translated into English.
    • Japanese checkmarks have been replaced by "X" marks along with an "F" letter grade added on test papers.
    • Chopsticks are replaced by forks.
    • Doraemon is mistaken for a seal instead of a tanuki.
    • Noby's feelings for Shizuka were toned down as Noby blushing over her has been removed.
    • Shizuka's character has been partially changed to reflect a more tomboyish personality, although her sweet and kind personality was retained. This was done because, in test viewings of the Japanese version, most of the American children requested for her character to be changed since her traditionally Japanese habits were difficult to understand. In addition, her love for bathing and sweet potatoes are not mentioned until season 2.
    • Nudity has been heavily censored by adding computer-generated steam, as well as adding clothing, such as a tank top.
    • All scenes showing Nobisuke smoking have been removed.
  • The episodic title card sequences have been removed; instead, the episode title fades in and out at the beginning of each segment.
  • Fade-to-black transitions have been added to the end of most episodes..
  • Some episodes have had several minutes cut due to time constraints for commercial breaks.

Trivia[]

  • This was not the first time the franchise arrived on American soil, as Telemundo in Puerto Rico carried the Latin American Spanish dub of the previous Doraemon series during the 2000s making this the first time the 1979 series could be seen on American airwaves.[4]
  • The 1979 anime also aired on TV Japan in its original Japanese version without subtitles in the United States and Canada from May 2012 until March 2014.[5]
  • The earliest dubbed episode is Time Kerchief, aired in Japan on May 13, 2005, and the latest dubbed episode is Attack of the Clones, aired in Japan on November 28, 2014.
