As a huge Doraemon fan since childhood, I’ve often wondered how Doraemon would’ve Dealt with Nobita in 2024. With AI everywhere, indeed, Nobita might not need Doraemon’s gadgets as much as he did in the past. But do you think He would’ve not felt the need of Doraemon at all? Or His gadgets would’ve been of no use to Nobita as all his work had already been simplified on the tip of his fingers with the help of Present Day Tech.
However, I believe their bond goes beyond mere utility.
Doraemon isn’t just about gadgets; he’s a friend, mentor, and confidant to Nobita. Even with AI assistance, there are aspects of life that can’t be solved by technology alone. Doraemon provides emotional support, encouragement, and companionship that no AI can replicate.
Doraemon is his Best Friend who handles all his tantrums and rescues him from all the troubles he gets himself into by some mischievousness or the other.
In 2024, I imagine Nobita and Doraemon having heart-to-heart conversations about life, dreams, and fears. They’d reminisce about their adventures and the lessons learned along the way. Doraemon would still lend an empathetic ear when Nobita faces challenges or feels overwhelmed.
Perhaps Doraemon would adapt to the times by integrating with modern technology. He’d learn about AI systems and find creative ways to enhance Nobita’s life beyond gadgets. Maybe he’d help Nobita explore new passions or discover hidden talents.
Ultimately, Doraemon’s value lies not just in what he provides practically but in the intangible magic of their friendship. No matter how advanced AI becomes, there will always be room for a blue robotic cat from the future who cares deeply for his human friend.
So, even in 2024, I believe Nobita would cherish Doraemon’s presence—the warmth of his smile, the sound of his bell—and continue to rely on him as a trusted companion on life’s unpredictable journey And they’ll still stick around each other no matter what comes.
