Doraemon (Japanese: ドラえもん) is a fictional title character in the Japanese manga and anime eponymous series of the same name created by Fujiko F. Fujio. Doraemon is a male robotic earless cat that travels back in time from the 22nd century to aid a preteen boy named Nobita.

An official birth certificate for the character gives him a birth date of 3 September 2112 and lists his city of residency as Kawasaki, Kanagawa, the city where the manga was created.[6] In 2008, Japan's Foreign Ministry appointed Doraemon the country's "anime ambassador".
