History YMMV / Doraemon

** One of Doraemon's gadgets is a pair of ink markers [[Videogame/{{Portal}} that allow transfer of objects being put into from two differing circle colors.]]
** Also, one of Doraemon's gadgets is ''Gravity Paint'' that allow users to walk through walls, ceiling, and any surface that is painted with it. ''Videogame/Portal2'' was planned to have paint gel that allow Chell to walk through walls, which was discarded because it's making playtesters sick.
** One of Doraemon's gadgets is an ArmCannon in shape of a barrel with practically unlimited power that can knock down targets by force after yelling "bang!". The unlockable for ''Videogame/DeadSpace2'' has exactly that, only in the shape of a foam finger.

** ''The Adventues of Albert and Sidney'' appears to have been fairly popular back when it aired in Barbados.

** Doraemon is also very popular in Italy, in a similar way to Spain (though it's not the most popular, especially compared to other animes).
** Sophia from "Doraemon: Nobita's Mermaid Legend" movie is ironically popular in the West, likely due to Many fans comparing her to Ariel from ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}''.

* MemeticPsychopath: Pretty rare in a series aimed toward children, but Shizuka is sometimes perceived by fans of the series as a [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish person]] [[BitchInSheepsClothing who can hide her true colors pretty well]]. Many fans suspect that Shizuka befriended Nobita to have free access to Doraemon's gadgets, befriended Suneo for vacation tickets, befriended Gian for free protection, and befriended Dekisugi for help in doing her homework, all while still managing to look like a NiceGirl. It doesn't help that in ''Thousand Needle Trout'', Shizuka did the "house is on fire" prank, only to run to Nobita's home with a lit matchstick due to Nobita being in the effect of the ''Thousand-Needle Badge'', which forces everything said to be truth, and another where Shizuka, name-calling Nobita, unknowingly turns the ''Knock-Down Hitman'' on Nobita, a gadget which Nobita paid for to get revenge on Suneo deliberately tripping him. This also borders on RonTheDeathEater, especially since Shizuka has been Nobita's friend since early childhood, a long time before he met Doraemon and had access to his gadgets.
