のび太シンデレラ

Nobita's mom is cleaning out the shed and Nobita and Doraemon finds a pile of books.

Nobita: Hey, these are my dearly missed picture books I read in kindergarden.
(Nobita brings them up to his room and reads them, starting with うらしまたろう. Nobita then begins to cry)
Doraemon: What's the matter?
Nobita: Everytime I read this book, I become sad. When it looks like they try and return from the Palace of the Dragon King, 300 years have already passed. What's worse is that he becomes an old man. After this, I always wonder and worry what Urashimatarou would do. It's pathetic. Waaah (cries).
Doraemon: If you're becoming worried about that, do you want to go and see the continuation? (pulls out a pair of shoes from his pocket) The enter-picture-book shoes.
Nobita (putting on the shoes): Let's go. Let's go.
Doraemon: It's not going to be a very fun story isn't it? Go to the ending of the picture book.
(Nobita and Doraemon enters the book and is in a very forested area)

Nobita: THERE HE IS.
Urashimatarou: If I am to become this, there's no reason to live. I will enter the ocean and die. (Urashimatarou enters gloomily with his head down into the ocean)
Nobita: WAIT.
(Nobita saves Urashimatarou but now he is crying on the beach)
Nobita: Is there anything we can give him?
(Doraemon takes out a hankerchief and places it over Urashimatarou's head and takes it off)
Doraemon: Time Furoshiki.
(Urashimatarou's face is young again)
Nobita: Wow! You became young.
Doraemon (giving Urashimatarou a belt): This time belt will return you back to the old times.
Urashimatarou: Whaaat? Really? Thank you. Thank you. (Urashimatarou dissapears back to his time period)

(Doraemon and Nobita returns back to his room and out of the book)
Nobita: I was worried for the longest time but now, it's all cleared.
Mom (yelling from the shed): WHY AREN'T YOU HELPING? I'M YELLING AT YOU. (SCOLD SCOLD SCOLD)
Nobita: I want to play in one more picture book.
(Nobita jumps into another book. He is hanging onto a railway to a set of grand stairs)
Waah! Where am I?
(Get's his footing and sees a women in a grand ballgown running down the stairs. Her glass slipper falls off while she continues to run)
Nobita: It's Cinderella! And that's her famous glass slipper.
(Nobita picks it up and runs but trips and the glass slipper shatters into pieces. Before Nobita could do anything, the prince comes running down the stairs)
Prince: Miss, please wait!
(Nobita runs away but loses one of his sneakers in the process)
Nobita: Now that I've broken the glass slipper, the story is going to be ruined. I better go home. MY SHOE IS GONE! I CAN'T GO HOME.

(At the palace)
Prince: I have to marry whoever fits this shoe.
King: Search the entire country.
Helper-guy: Yes, sir.
(Helper-guys try to fit all the girls but obviously, no one can really fit a 10 year old's sneaker. Nobita's hilarious cartoonish figure also makes his shoe too round to fit any regular women's feet)
Helper-guy #1: No one can fit this shoe.
Helper-guy #2: It is an unusual shoe, though.
Prince: No other girl will do. No matter what, please find the person who fits the shoe! (Prince is crying. Kind of sad, really)
Helper-guy #2 (addressing a large crowd): Whoever fits this shoe, please come forward.
Nobita (crying, runs out from the crowd): I'ts mine! Give it back.

(back at home、Doraemon has finished Nobita's mom with cleaning the shed)
Mom (still looking angry): よんでいらっしゃい。(I think she's telling Doraemon to go read. But does she usually use such polite language towards Doraemon? Anyways, Doraemon runs back to Nobita's room)
Nobita (voice coming from book): Help!
(Doraemon looks puzzled, then picks up the book and looks at the page that Nobita left open to jump in. In it, he sees Nobita in a wedding dress crying and looking miserable, with the Prince holding his arm. The Prince looks not so pleased either but has a "nothing can be done" look on his face. Either way, Nobita looks hilarious crying in a wedding dress. Doraemon is shocked with worry)
Nobita: ぼくやだよ~。(Does this mean, I hate it or I wanna stop?)

スネ夫のおしりがゆくえ不明

Suneo is in his huge, gorgeous house, looking at himself in the mirror.

Suneo (thinking to himself): My family is rich. I am an honor student. My face is beautiful yet, why is it that my stature is short?
(angrily recalling memory with Gian)
Gian (resting arm on Suneo's head): You're tiny, huh?
Suneo (to his mother): How do I become tall?
Suneo's mother: You eat a lot and play sports.
Suneo (walking away): Those are not very good ways.
(While Suneo passes by the field, he sees Shizu-chan reaching toward the tree)
Shizu-chan: Suneo, can you help me with the stuck ball?
(Obviously, Suneo can't reach it if he's shorter than Shizu-chan. But the drawing of him reaching towards the tree is adorable)
Suneo: If only you had a much taller person.
(Doraemon and Nobita shows up)
Doraemon: Can I help? (Takes out hammer from his pocket) The Daruma Otoshi(tumbling doll) Hammer. Like DarumaOtoshi, you shoot out the middle part.
(Doraemon hits the tree with the stuck ball at the middle and the pieces starts shooting out while the top remains in tact. The tree soon gets to a reachable height for Shizu-chan to get the ball)
Doraemon: Here you go.
Shizu-chan: But the tree looks pathetic.
Doraemon: Don't worry. If you stack them back on its base/foundation, it will adhere together. (Stacks one of the wood plate onto the tree and it becames a part back into the tree).
Suneo: Whaaat? (へ~)It's an ntersting tool, huh? Can you use it for other than trees?
Doraemon: Anything is good.
(Suneo takes the hammer and knocks out Doraemon's middrift. The middrift rolls away and Doraemon, Nobita and Shizu-chan chases after it, while Suneo runs away with the hammer. )
Suneo: Let me borrow this.
(Nobita finally gets the middrift. Doraemon is shorter than normal.)
Nobita: Your current state looks pretty pathetic, huh?
Doraemon: Don't joke!!
(Nobita throws back the middrift at Doraemon and he becomes normal. On the other side of the neighborhood, Suneo finds Gian and knocks out his middrift. Gian becomes short and angry.)

Gian: YOU DID THIS.
(Suneo kicks him to the ground and rests his arm on Gian's head much like in the style of Suneo's initial flashback)
Suneo: You're tiny, huh?
(Gian is on his knees crying while Sueno stands over him)
Suneo: Do you promise to never torment me?
Gian: I promise. I promise.
Suneo: Now, let's put you back to normal. From now on, you will be my follower.
(Gian takes the hammer and knocks out Suneo's waist and it rolls away)
Gian: Do you swear to never defy me again?
Suneo: I swear. I swear.
Gian: Now let's put you back to...where is it? (Both realizes Suneo's booty is gone and go off to look for it.) Where did it go?
Suneo (crying): DON'T JOKE!
(Goes to Shizu-chan's house)
Shizu-chan: A kid was rolling around with it.
(Both runs after the kid)
Suneo: YOU DON'T PLAY WITH A PERSON'S BUTT!!
Kid: A dog took it to the mountain.
(Suneo and Gian goes to a large field with tall grass)
Gian: Hey, I can't find anything here.
Suneo (barely showing up in the grass): WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN TO ME? (Suneo starts laughing) IT TICKLES! SOMETHING IS LICKING MY BUTT! (Screams again with tears in his eyes) IT BIT ME!!
Gian: The dog probably mistook it for ham so it seems like it's eating it.
(Gian and Suneo goes to Nobita's house and cries)

Doraemon: That's difficult. You can find where it is at the base of the mountain. Eat this "Music Potato/Taro" and a melody gas will come out.
(Doraemon gives Suneo the potato/taro and Suneo eats it. They hear "プププ” coming out over the hill and all runs to it. They find Suneo's booty and shoos away the dog that has been biting it)
Everyone: There it is.
(Everything is back to normal but Suneo's butt continues to go "プププ”. All the kids runs away from him covering their noses)
Gian: Until the gas calms down, don't get close.

時差時計

A small group of kids including Nobita and Suneo are being yelled at by Gian. All are wearing baseball gear.

Gian: Our Giant's winning percentage is closely continuously falling!! Today will be intensive training!! Until the day we fail, we will work strictly and severly hard!!
Nobita (looking scared, nervous, thinks to self): Until the day we fail?! Mmm...I'll die. (speaking) Time out a bit. Toliet. I come back soon. (runs home) DORAEMOOOOON. Is there a way...huh? (Enters into his room but it's dark. Outside his window is the moon in the nightsky) Nice moon...but it's broad daylight. (Looks at desk clock). 9 o'clock?! 9 o'clock PM?!
Doraemon: For some reason, I want to look at the moon during the daytime. I made this time difference watch. (It's a small globe) Let's return back Japan's time. (moves globe)
Nobita: It became bright!! How? How?
Doraemon: Don't you know about time difference?
Nobita: I don't know.
Doraemon: For example, when it becomes daytime in Japan, America, which is on the opposite side, becomes nightime. The entire world's time becomes a slightly off. These time variations is called time difference. This watch is able to change anywhere in the world's time. (I can't translate this! この時計はまわりの時間を世界のどこの時間にもあわせられるんだ.)

Nobita (running out of the house with watch): I borrowed it! (goes back to baseball field where Gian continues to yell)
Gian: What are you doing? Hurry and position yourself!!
Nobita: A little bit left...Hawaii's time...and the day should end soon.
Gian: Let's go.
(before they can begin the game, it becomes night)
Suneo: The day is over.
Gian: This, this wasn't supposed to happen.
Boys: This wasn't supposed to happened but it's really turning dark.
Gian: It can't be helped. I'm breaking up the game.
Boys : YAY!!
(Gian looks super sad while the rest of the boys run home with joy)
Gian: Nevertheless, it's strange...(suddenly becomes bright. Gian looks severly confused and looks around at the skies in different directions) Wha?! Wha?! Wha?!

Nobita (walking back into his house with the watch): I have to return Japan's time back to normal or else it will surprise everyone in the neighborhood. (Runs back outside) But I can use it for many interesting things. (Sees Shizu-chan) Hey Shizuchan. Where are you going?
Shizu-chan: I'm going to the park to sketch.
Nobita: Let's go together.
(Starts to rain)
Nobita: Oh, rain.
Shizu-chan (starts to walk home): Sketching would be impossible. Bye-bye.
Nobita: Boring. That's it! (takes out watch) Let's do Hong Kong time. (becomes sunny. calls after Shizu-chan) It's like an hour earlier when it was sunny. Let's go Shizu-chan.
Shizu-chan: I wonder why it stopped raining so quick.
Nobita (thinking to self): Next, going to Bangkok time will be good.
Shizu-chan: The day is going to end before I finish drawing.
Nobita: It won't end for a while.
(At the park, it is still sunny)
Shizu-chan: Isn't this fun?
Nobita (thinking to self): I would trade this to talk to Shizu-chan. Let's extend the difference a little bit longer.
Shizu-chan: Finished. I have to go home now.
Nobita: But it's still early. (points to clock) It's still 3pm.
(Shizu-chan and Nobita walking home)
Shizu-chan: でも絵がかきあがったから。
Nobita: Oh. (walking by himself) I should return the time. But how many hours did I put off? (it becomes dark and Nobita runs home) I'm going to be late.

Doraemon (infront of TV that says おわり): Today's "Strong Man Warrior" was interesting.
Nobita: Aah, I forgot!!
Mom: Before you were late, where and what were you doing?!
Nobita (changes watch behind his back): It's still bright outside. (Mom is very surprised/confused and leaves) Let's watch "Strong Man Warrior"
Doraemon (seeing what Nobita has done): Give it back!!
Nobita: In a bit.
Mom: Do your homework.
Nobita (doing homework): I can do it as slowly as I want because of the watch.
Doraemon: かってなことをもうしらない!(gets into his closet for bedtime)
(Mom and Dad are still awake downstairs)
Dad: Tonight went by slowly, huh?
Mom: Really. We still have time.
(The next morning, Nobita is asleep at his desk. Doraemon comes to wake him up)
Doraemon: Morning! You should wake up soon.
Nobita: (incomprehensible muttering/talk in sleep) AAH, I DIDN'T SET BACK THE TIME?!
(Nobita and Dad runs out of the houses looking scared/frantic/nervous/a wreck. Mom and Doraemon stands outside the door looking dissapointed)
Dad: IF THE TIME IN NEW DEHLI IS 7AM, WHAT TIME IS IT IN JAPAN?!!
Doreamon: 10:30!!

なんでも空港

Doraemon and Nobita are throwing paper planes from the roof of their house.

Nobita: Which one of the airplanes will fly the farthest?
(Nobita's Sensei's in the street below Nobita's house, where there are paper planes in his way. He yells at Nobita from bellow. It's actually a very adorable drawing of Sensei)
Sensei: Are you going to leave your paper scraps out here?
(Nobita and Doraemon are throwing paper planes in his room)
Nobita: We could fly them inside but they'll hit into things and fall (demonstrates flying the paper plane into a wall)
Doraemon: If we can't fly them outside, let's make an airport in the garden. (Takes a small landing strip from his pocket) The "Anything Airport". We'll unroll it (it even comes with small terminals!). Whatever object is flying in the air will land on this airport (it's kind of more like a runway).
Nobita: Even paper planes?
Doraemon: Fly (the paper plane) towards the direction you like.
Nobita: I'll throw it towards the opposite direction of the airport.
Doraemon: ほうらきた。
(the paper plane turns and lands on the runway)
Doraemon: See, it landed perfectly.
(Nobita and Doraemon throws lots and lots of paper planes it the air)
Doraemon: Where you fly the planes...
Nobita: they land perfectly.
(A dragonfly lands on the runway)
Nobita: Huh? Even the dragonfly lands perfectly.
Doraemon: Anything nearby will land.
(A balloon lands)
Doraemon: Who flew that?
(a white shirt lands)
Doraemon: THE INVISIBLE MAN!!
Mom: That's just the wind with the laundry.

(Shizu-chan comes running by Nobita's house with an empty bird cage. Shizu-chan owns birds for pets)
Shizu-chan: My canaries ran away again.
Doraemon: Let's use the airport.
Nobita: First, we need to know where to look for them.
(They're in an open field)
Doraemon: They're not here.
Shizu-chan: What will I do if a cat ate them?
Doraemon: There it is! Over there. Hurry and unroll the airport.
(the bird lands on the runway)
Shizu-chan: Thank you very much.
(Butterflies land on the runway in a row)
Shizu-chan: Wow, pretty.
(a toy airplane lands on the runway at high speed scaring everyone. Gian and Suneo runs into the scene)

Gian: Did the RC (radio controlled) fall down?
Nobita: Heeey, did you know I have an interesting airport?
Suneo: I want to play RC with the airport. Lend it to me for a short while.
Doraemon: I guess. Return it with care.
Suneo: I understand. (Doraemon, Nobita and Shizu-chan leaves the field with the airport in the hands of Gian and Suneo)
Suneo: So what I said was a lie. I'm going to collect bugs.
Gian: That's right. If we wait, we can get different kinds of bugs.
Suneo: Look. Something's coming. なんだこりや。
(a duck-like thing comes flying. It looks like a cross between a duck and the ghosts from Pac-Man)
Gian and Suneo (angry): Ghosts are of no use.
Thing: おりたくておりたんじゃないぞ。Because that thing is unrolled, it will be bad.
(a boy wearing a cap and riding on a broomstick lands, followed by a man riding on a flying robotic thing)
Suneo: There are wierd things flying in Japan's skies.
(a loud noise is heard. Gian and Suneo becomes nervous)
Suneo and Gina: Waah, what is that?
(A real life size airplane is preparing to land on their tiny runway. Suneo and Gian tries to run away with the runway but the airplane continues to follow them at a short distance. Doraemon and Nobita comes back and runs after them)
Doraemon: HURRY AND FOLD UP THE AIRPORT!
