TIMEasia.com: Asian Heroes - Doraemon |
 | | The reason Doraemon is blue, according to the most recent accounts, is that a robot mouse bit off his ears, and he was so rattled by his girlfriend's ensuing laughter that he turned a little turquoise. |
 | | At heart, Doraemon is profoundly human: it's the very essence of his charm that he has a girlfrienda small cat called Mi-chanbut she always seems a little out of reach. |
 | | Hello Kitty, after all, has no mouth and never moves; Doraemon seems often to be all mouth, and in every 30-minute episode of his show, is to be seen worried, chortling, goggle-eyed, at peace or pounding on the floor in frustration and then calmly dipping his paw into a bag of cookies. |
