Tokyo 1970: I'll draw Doraemon?

While Fujimoto Hiroshi was diligently studying "Grandma's Memories," Suzuki Jiro was completely absorbed in the story.

For adults with regrets, this gentle old lady, full of memories of the past, seems to remind them of their own childhood.

That was an era of scarcity, when children had to go to the countryside to farm and contribute to the country.

If it weren't for his grandmother's care, he might have starved to death.

I miss you so much.

……

This tattered, patched teddy bear with cotton showing was sewn for him by his grandmother, and it contains her love for him.

Upon seeing the teddy bear, Nobita couldn't help but think of his grandmother, who had brought him endless warmth.

So Nobita decides to take the time machine back in time to see his grandmother, just a glimpse from afar.

After they left, Tamako's mother came to Nobita's bedroom and took away the tattered teddy bear while complaining.

"Will the teddy bear be thrown away again?" Jiro Suzuki wondered.

Many parents do this, throwing away their children's precious possessions like trash.

He couldn't find many of the comic books he used to buy.

This is something that will leave you with regrets even when you grow up.

……

Nobita and his friends travel back in time and experience a series of twists and turns.

Nobita was first kicked out of the room by his mother as a stranger. Then he helped the toddler who was being bullied by Gian and Suneo. Finally, he met the old lady who walked steadily with her hands behind her back.

In an instant, memories of the past surfaced in my mind.

The way Grandma gently stroked his head, the way she sewed the little bear for him...

She was exactly the same as I remembered.

Nobita was speechless, moved to tears.

"grandmother……"

Seeing my younger self, I realized that I used to stomp my feet and throw a tantrum because my grandma couldn't buy me the snacks I wanted.

"Grandma is so annoying! Get away from me! Grandma should just disappear!"

Nobita felt both angry and guilty for his childhood self.

He was moved to tears and overwhelmed with self-reproach after being told such hurtful things by his beloved grandmother.

Doraemon advised him, "Perhaps you were really willful when you were little, but that was because you were young and were being spoiled by your grandma."

Adults always give children unlimited tolerance, which gives children the right to be willful.

Nobita is just as mischievous in front of his mother now as he was when he was a child. Perhaps this is a kind of happiness.

He is so sensible and carefully cherishes this relationship because he will never see his grandmother again.

Suzuki Jiro thought to himself.

If he could see his grandmother again, he would definitely have a good chat with her, eat and sleep properly, and spend all his time by her side.

This is of course impossible.

He also had to pursue his dream of becoming a comic artist, so he stayed up late every night to study.

"Cherish the present."

Grandma carried Xiao Daxiong on her back and wandered all over the town, but she still couldn't find the fireworks she wanted to buy.

Nobita's doll was even taken away by a stray dog.

Nobita displayed his prowess, snatching the toy back from several stray dogs and returning it to Suneo and Gian through their help.

He preserved his childhood memories.

The sun was setting in the west, and dusk was approaching.

Before leaving, Nobita wanted to see his grandmother one last time.

He carefully slipped into the room and finally met his grandmother, who was mending a teddy bear in the bedroom.

Grandma didn't blame him. In front of him, she took out a corner of her kimono, cut it off, and patched it onto the doll that had been torn apart by wild dogs.

Da Xiong watched from the side and started talking about a topic he had probably thought about many times.

"Grandma, do you think Nobita is cute?"

Grandma gave an affirmative answer; she wanted to stay with Da Xiong forever and take care of him.

However, she was already old and wouldn't live much longer.

"I really want to see him go to school with his backpack..."

"I really want to see it."

With Doraemon's help, Nobita put on his schoolbag and appeared in front of his grandmother.

He then nervously revealed his identity.

"I... am Nobita, a fifth-grade elementary school student!"

To his surprise, his grandmother immediately nodded.

"I knew it."

Faced with Nobita's doubts, she said kindly, "Who would doubt what my Nobita says?"

Nobita couldn't hold back any longer and threw himself into his grandmother's arms, crying and apologizing for his past willful behavior.

Grandma hugged him, tears welling up in her dry eyes.

"It's okay, Nobita. It's me who did a bad job."

"I just wanted to see Nobita happy, and before I knew it, I was spoiling him too much."

But even if she understood, there was nothing she could do.

"Whenever I see you happy, Grandma is very happy... very happy..."

"I really feel so lucky to be Nobita's grandma."

Da Xiong nestled in his grandmother's arms, feeling extremely happy.

Doraemon's appearance allowed Grandma to fulfill her dream of meeting Nobita, a primary school student, and Nobita was able to experience Grandma's selfless love once again.

“Everyone’s saying,” Suzuki Jiro wiped away his tears, “that Doraemon’s gadgets could rule the world, yet Nobita is being bullied by a few kids. It’s so unrealistic. But isn’t it even greater to be able to see your deceased loved ones?”

He watched until the end, and the damaged teddy bear was mended again.

That's made of jade.

"Waaaah, I'm so touched."

Jiro Suzuki finally couldn't hold back his tears and burst into tears.

"Mom is so good!"

"Tsk tsk."

To the side, Fujimoto Hiroshi shook his head with a look of disgust.

This froze Suzuki Jiro, who was so engrossed in the manga that he had forgotten there was someone nearby.

"He's 30 years old and still cries over a comic book, saying things like 'Mom is so good.' Suzuki-kun is so innocent, it's almost unfair."

His sarcastic remarks made Suzuki Jiro blush.

"You're so long-winded, teacher! Your comics are so uninteresting, how come they're not as good as Fushimi's? You need to reflect on your own problems!"

His blunt personal attacks angered Fujimoto Hiroshi.

"I'm learning! This is my style! Just you wait and see!"

Fushimikawa traveled to the past and brought the pinnacle of Doraemon to Fujimoto Hiroshi, a work that children will love no matter the era.

I wonder how strong Fujimoto Hiroshi will become because of this.

But no matter what, all he and his assistant can do now is relentlessly attack each other's weaknesses.

"The teacher's eyes were still red; she must have cried too!"

"Wh...what!"

……

Popcorn movies, no matter how popular they used to be, will eventually become obsolete due to advancements in special effects, but works with genuine emotion are different.

Adults and children, good and bad, men and women alike will all feel the sincerity the author wants to express.

98% of people would be moved by it.

"Grandma! Waaaaah!"

At Morimoto's home, the grandson hugged his grandmother and cried.

Will Grandma die too? Will I never see Grandma again?

"Of course it will, it's unavoidable." Mrs. Morimoto stroked the child's head gently. "But no matter what, Grandma's love for you will never change."

"Grandma, you're so kind. I want to stay with you forever!"

She was enjoying her family time, and occasionally she would throw a smug look at the stubborn old man.

'You don't, do you?'

He brought back his grandson's favorite comic magazine and was admired by his grandson because of his identity as a cartoonist, but now he has become the one being provoked.

This was unacceptable to Morimoto.

"Ahem, come here," he patted the tatami mat beside him, "come to Grandpa's."

"I don't want to!" the grandson shook his head. "I want to stay with Grandma!"

Morimoto's face darkened.

"Shall I take you to draw a kitten?"
