No matter how a certain Western mouse, born 80 years ago, continuously became the world's most popular cartoon character in the following decades, we still have reasons to believe that this Eastern cat is the most precious shared memory of our childhood. This cat is Doraemon. Next spring, the TV animation of "Doraemon" will welcome its 30th anniversary. For this occasion, Japan's Asahi TV plans to launch a special program.

Recently, the Doraemon channel on Asahi TV's official website has been updated, and it revealed the news about the special program. It is reported that the special program is named "TV Animation Masterpieces 30". Asahi TV will collect the most popular stories from participants through a voting process. Participants can select their favorite stories from the TV animation series of "Doraemon" via the internet or postcards. The top 30 most popular stories will be broadcasted in the special program. To facilitate the selection for participants, the website also lists the titles of the stories aired between 1979 and 2008. For fans, this is also a database.
