Doraemon: Most, if not all the villains from the movies have absolutely no issues with hurting kids, being (mostly) Darker and Edgier than the manga and anime they're based upon, nevermind how Nobita and friends (alongside most of the new characters for the movie) are roughly 10 years of age.


  • Right off the bat in the first movie, Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur, the villainous Black Mask is willing to fire his gun on Nobita and gang as they attempt escaping him during a chase through cyberspace, causing all of them to crash in the Cretaceous Era. His boss, Dolmanstein, is even worse - after Black Mask and the Dinosaur Hunters captured Gian, Suneo and Shizuka, in an attempt to bait Doraemon and Nobita out of hiding Dolmanstein tries having the trio fed to a hungry T-Rex.
  • The Gartite Syndicate from Doraemon: The Record of Nobita : Spaceblazer, whose mooks attempts to force the new character Ropporu - a young boy roughly Nobita's age - into crashing his spaceship. After Doraemon and Nobita became friends with Ropporu and tries standing up to the Gartite, their leader Borgant tries to blow up Nobita and Doraemon using a Time Bomb, one which nearly kills Ropporu in the process which the villains shows zero remorse over. There's also the Gartite's chief enforcer, Guillermin, who duels Nobita in the final scene using live firearms.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Haunts of Evil has Chancellor Daburanda of Bauwan, who is willing to have Prince Kuntakku and his new friends - being Doraemon, Nobita and gang - hunted down and executed in order to terminate the Bauwan royal bloodline. Daubranda's Co-Dragons are as willing to hurt children as their boss, too - the Evil Genius, Professor Kos, ordering his flamethrower-equipped ships to open fire on the gang, while The Heavy, Captain Saberu, tries attacking Gian and Nobita with his sword.
  • Poseidon and his army from Doraemon: Nobita and the Castle of the Undersea Devil, haunting the Bermuda Triangle. When Shizuka volunteers herself to be The Bait so everyone can infiltrate Poseidon's quarters, Poseidon orders Shizuka to be executed - but not before making her watch her friends getting captured and nearly killed by his army.
  • The demons from Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld, with their boss Demaon, simply couldn't wait to feast on the gang, with a demon chef taunting the new character Miyoko (who's the same age as Nobita) and excitedly trying to cut her up for their victory feast while the others are Forced to Watch.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Little Space War has The Generalissimo of Planet Pirika, General Gilmore, ordering a manhunt to execute Papi, a childlike alien (who's barely older than Nobita and gang according to supplementary materials), and when the gang, including Papi (but excluding Suneo and Shizuka) gets captured alive by Gilmore's right-hand man Colonel Dracorl, the dictator immediately orders for the gang to be Shot at Dawn.
  • Gigazombie from Doraemon: Nobita and the Birth of Japan enslaves an ancient tribe, making every member of their community his slaves, several of them - including the gang's new friend Kukuru - children and sentenced to Working on the Chain Gang. And in a botched rescue mission from Doraemon, Gigazombie ordered the main characters (sans Nobita who got separated with the others) hung above a pit containing a savage, hungry lynx.
  • The Nimuge from Doraemon: Nobita and the Animal Planet, a race of aliens (who later turns out to be Human All Along) deliberately carpet-bombs the planet's surface, having zero qualms about the numbers of animal-children living on it, besides kidnapping Chippo's seven-year-old cousin as as a leverage, complete with threats to execute her to prevent their retaliation. The final battle had Doraemon and the gang partaking in fighting the Nimuge, culminating the Nimuge commander to bring out his heavily-armoured tank to massacre everyone, the main characters included.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Dorabian Nights has Shizuka accidentally lost in the tales of the Arabian Nights and captured by a slaver, Abdil, who tries whipping her for running away, never mind Shizuka being a child. There's also Cassim, the forty thieves' leader, who intends to have Nobita and friends flung into the stormy seas after robbing them.
  • Professor Napogistler from Doraemon: Nobita and the Tin Labyrinth, who is wiping out the human resistance in the aftermath of a Robot War, upon finding out Nobita's new friend Sapio (who's again around Nobita's age) is in the titular labyrinth, orders his army to nuke the area in an attempt to have Sapio (as well as Shizuka and Nobita) Buried Alive.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Three Visionary Swordsmen has the gang facing demons again, this time being the Demon Lord Odorom who disintegrates Nobita (thankfully Nobita had bathed in the dragon's lake, which grants him the ability to respawn). When Nobita revives, Odorom instead traps Nobita on the spot and intends to kill Shizuka, Gian and Suneo in front of Nobita, who's Forced to Watch.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Spiral City, despite being a Lighter and Softer installment (for the movies' standards) does have a moment where the villain, Onigoro Kumatora, hijacks Doraemon's spaceship with the gang onboard, and pull a Spaceship Slingshot Stunt... with the gang still tied up and trapped in said spaceship. Later as the climax boils down to Nobita and Kumatora facing each other, Kumatora have no qualms shooting at Nobita with live bullets.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Great Adventure in the South Seas has the gang travelling to the age of pirates, only to run into the story's main villain, Cash, who unleashed his Sea Monsters on the gang.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Drifts in the Universe has Angolmois, The Man Behind the Man, when he's revealed to be manipulating the Independence Army, having Nobita and gang - with their new friend, the young Space Cadet Lian - locked up for execution. Later on, Angolmois manipulates the Independence Army's commander - Lian's father Liebert - into forcing Liebert to pull the trigger on his own son.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's the Legend of the Sun King has a Vain Sorceress, Ledina, who intends to sacrifice Prince Tio of Mayana (who's the same age as Nobita, and an Identical Stranger) for her immortality. And when she fails to sacrifice Tio, she then tries using Nobita as her sacrificial subject instead while ordering her underlings to kill Doraemon and the rest of the gang.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Winged Braves has Commander Seagrid, who bears Fantastic Racism towards human, including sentencing Gian and Suneo for execution when their identities are exposed.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Robot Kingdom has Commander Dester and his army, who intends to have the emotion chips of robot children extracted to remove any semblance of humanity, a process which causes as much pain and torture as it sounds, with Dester spending a huge chunk of the film hunting down Chippo, a robot kid who's equivalent to a six-year-old human child, besides repeatedly antagonizing Nobita and co.
  • The Storm Tribe from Doraemon: Nobita and the Windmasters repeatedly antagonizes the benevolent Wind Tribe, even hurting Temujin's baby sister in their raids. Their leader, the story's Hidden Villain, notably intends to use Nobita's new pet, a baby Wind Elemental named Fuuko as part of a ritual to revive the ancient monster Mafuuga, a process that causes Fuuko plenty of pain and suffering, besides ordering the newly revived Mafuuga to attack Nobita and gang, including their new friends, the kids from the Wind Village.
  • Doraemon: Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey has Neko Jara and his guards, who repeatedly hunts down Ichi and his friends, all of them children, as well as Nobita and gang when they befriended Ichi's group. Jara himself, befitting a Fat Bastard, deliberately attacks Doraemon, Nobita and Ichi with a Shock Stick, shows no concern when he electrocutes the child Ichi into unconsciousness and later brings out a huge mecha to pursue the gang.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Green Giant Legend has Shirah and his plant tribe, who targets Nobita's new friend, the infant plant Kibo, in an attempt to sacrifice Kibo and covert him into a green nuke to be used on Earth, a process which involves having Kibo dissolved alive as a sacrifice. When Doraemon and the gang tries recuing Kibo in the finale, Shirah's minion Baruna tries shooting them down on his aircraft.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Great Battle of the Mermaid King has the Mer-demon Lord Bulkin and his army terrorizing the mermaid community, targeting Princess Sophia who's the same age as Shizuka. Bulkin's dragon Tragis notably had no qualms subjecting Shizuka under Electric Torture to force the gang out of hiding.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and the Island of Miracles ~Animal Adventure~ throws Nobita's father, Nobisuke - accidentally displaced from the past back when Nobisuke is 12 - into the mix, and the villains being a group of Evil Poachers, antagonizing the gang and even attacking Rokoro village, with Sky, the most sadistic of the bunch, ordering her Quetzalcoatlus mecha to bombard the village despite knowing there are kids inside. Their leader Sherman especially takes delight taunting the captured Suneo as well as the new character, a six-year-old girl from Rokoro village named Koron, threatening to disintegrate them and later attempts to squash Nobita and Nobisuke with the rear of his giant mecha.
  • Doraemon: Nobita and The Space Heroes has the villain, Lord Ikaros, and his Terrible Trio of minions who have no issues attacking the gang, with Ikaros' Number Two Hyde threatening to impale Shizuka with a drill and later trying to have his Drill Tank grind up Doraemon and Suneo. The two Co-Dragons, Meba and Ogun, also attacks Gian and Shizuka (in that order) in the final battle.
  • Yamitem from Doraemon: Great Adventure in the Antarctic Kachi Kochi, unlike the two other villains - the mindless rampaging squid monster Octagon and the Made of Evil Winter Elemental Blizarga - displays a sadistic streak when he imprisons and tortures Doraemon, and then disguises himself into Doraemon in an attempt to trick the gang - including their young friend Carla - to be skewered underneath a spiked Descending Ceiling. When the real Doraemon tries to warn the gang, Yamitem instead tries to kill Nobita himself.
  • While the main villain, Captain Silver from Doraemon: Nobita's Treasure Island averts this trope (the only characters he interacts with are his children, Flock and Sarah) his Co-Dragons, Vivi and Gaga as well as his pirate mooks has no issues attacking the gang, with Gaga trying to shoot Nobita after kidnapping Shizuka. They're still downplayed to an extent as after having Shizuka taken to their quarters, it turns out they're The Kindnapper and doesn't harm Shizuka when off-duty.
  • Doraemon: Nobita's Chronicles of the Moon Exploration has the genocidal AI, Emperor Diablo, who orders his mooks to hunt down the child-like Espals - an alien race with telekinetic powers - for him to feed on. When Diablo managed to have the gang captured alive (sans Shizuka), he tries dropping them into an Acid Pool.
