Doraemon - Nobita's Great Battle of the Mermaid King (2010)
There are no more traces of them on this planet.
Let’s go.
I’m deeply sorry, Commander Bulkin!
We couldn’t find any of their traces on this planet.
Tragis.
Commander Bulkin!
Continue your search.
No matter what happens, find them for me!
Yes, sir!
Then, where is our next location?
Yes, sir! It's going to be the third planet of the solar system.
The planet called Earth.
Nobita-kun, Nobita-kun!
Mom told you to go shopping!
Nobita-kun, you have to go shopping…!
I'm very busy right now!
I have to hurry to the field to play pirates!
O-O-Ouch.
Nobita!
I’m sorry!
Play pirates?!
Yeah, he made an appointment with Gian already.
I think we should use the “gentle eye” (atatakai me) to...
Let him be.
Just because it's summer vacation doesn't mean he should play all day!
Isn’t that fine?
Just let him play.
Stop saying that!
He’s already in 5th grade.
Should we just let him act like a little kid like that forever?
Anyway, kids will be kids though.
Right? Doraemon?
Yes!
In that case,
how about you two go shopping in his place?
Dora-chan?
B-But I have a date with Mimi-chan right now!
Then, Papa?
I-I also have an appointment with Tanaka-san now!
Go shopping for me please, Doraemon!
This appointment is extremely important!
But I also have…
I beg of you!
Mine is also very important...
Ummm… “2 cans of bean curd,
4 packs of dried fish,
bacon, egg and beer for dad…”
And the last is "dorayaki for Dora-chan!”
I love you, Mom!
Oh~! So wonderful!
See? These are photos from Palau.
My cousin and I went swimming two days ago there.
Are you all right, Takeshi-san?
These things are useless!
Are you stupid? Flippers are meant to be used underwater only!
Give those back!
So I heard that you went with Palau?
That's a weird name for a cousin.
Idiot! Palau's a place! Palau!
Whatever! It's not a place that someone who is still playing pirates up until fifth grade can appreciate.
Is that true, Takeshi-kun?
It’s just that... Nobita always forces me into it...
Hey! What's this about your cousin Palau?
Palau is an island country in the Pacific Ocean!
Wherever you look, you can see the perfectly blue ocean.
Hey! What are you looking at?
Look at this!
Let me see, let me see!
So cool!
What is it?
This is a manta ray, a type of ray.
Ah! Is that you?
Here as well!
Weren't you scared?
Nope! I wasn’t scared one bit.
You could ride on it as well, Shizuka-chan.
How about it?
I'll have to pass.
Huh? Why not?
Let me see. Let me see.
There's more!
This is my cousin’s photo when he went diving in the Aegean Sea.
Look! It’s an ancient ruin in the sea.
Wow! Beautiful!
Let me see! Let me see!
If you guys wanna see more, come over to my place!
I took videos, too.
Whoa! Let's go!
I really want to see them!
Let’s go! Let’s go!
Oh? You coming too, Nobita?
Yeah...
You better not.
Aren’t you busy playing pirates?
He looks busy!
Hey! Gian! You're the one who wanted to play...
Nobita-kun, I don't think I'm fit to play such childish games.
In any case,
what is this?
It took me forever to find it.
Even kindergarteners nowadays won't use this.
But I often played with this when I was in kindergarten.
You are so childish.
Just like Nobita-san.
Shizuka-chan!
It ran out of air.
Nobita! Catch this!
Come on! Let’s go!
Is Nobita-san coming with us?
He'll come when he wants to.
That's right! He'll come when he wants to.
He's already a fifth grader, you know?
But from the looks of it, he's still a kindergartener!
Darn it all!
Doraemon!!!
How embarrassing.
Wait! I should...
...use the "gentle eyes" to comfort him.
Doraemon!!!
I’m coming!
Doraemon! I wanna go diving, too!
Ow, ow, ow! Just wear this, Nobita-kun.
What is that?
“Simulated Swimming Goggles!”
You said you wanted to go diving?
Yes!
Where are we going?
Palau? Hawaii?
Here.
What? Here?
You mean in this room?
That’s right. Now just wear these goggles.
"Simulated Swimming Goggles?"
Doesn’t it sound like a joke...?
W-What are you doing?
Stop! We would be in deep trouble if Mom came.
Try taking the glasses off.
What's going on?
This is a "Simulated Water Pump!"
"Simulated?"
That’s right! It's simulated water,
so anyone can experience how the surface of the Earth is like.
Simulated water?
Right! Whoever not wearing the goggles will not be affected by this of water or feel it.
That’s amazing.
The water is rising up.
Right! We will transform this house into a pool.
Then you can go diving as much as you like.
Hooray!
Hey, hey! Let me try it, too!
Sure.
All right!
Let's see how much water I can pump!
Probably not enough to dive.
What?
That won't do, then!
It's still pumping!
This thing can run automatically, too.
You should have told me sooner!
There are still a lot of things to prepare.
Wait for me.
Where are we going?
Fish gathering!
You want to take pictures to show off to Suneo, right?
Thanks, Doraemon!
We'll use these "Fish Biscuits" to attract fish.
Nobita-kun, sprinkle these around.
What would happen?
We'll lure the fish here.
Here? How? Do they fly here to eat the biscuits?
Yep!
Now, let’s begin.
We can gather the fish with this.
"Portable Fishing Pond."
Let’s adjust the coordinates.
It's the ocean!
Will there be fish?
There's one!
Of course, it's the real ocean.
Next up, "Fish Oxygen Tank."
As long as fish can breathe the gas from this tank,
They can live in the simulated water environment.
Now we only need to wait until midnight.
Yeah! I’m so excited.
Found it?
The data does not match.
Damn! It's just another sword.
Destroy it!
Yes, sir!
Tragis!
I'm really sorry, Commander Bulkin!
I am trying my best to find the mermaid tribe.
We will definitely find that sword.
Well then. Tragis!
Have you ever seen any planet...
...this full of water?
No, sir!
This planet is really beautiful.
This is the perfect place to hide the sword.
Use any means to find it!
Yes, sir!
Nobita-kun, it’s time to go.
Why is there no water at all?
Nobita, wear these.
Nobita-kun, put these on as well.
"Training Flippers!"
They will help you swim.
Oh my, look at the time.
Papa's late.
What is this?
Nobita, don’t push that button!
O-Oh no!
Help!!!
Nobita! Stop fooling around and go to sleep already!
Doraemon! Think of something!
J-Just a little bit more...
Yes!
That surprised me. What was that?
You released the safety on the pump.
When wearing these glasses, never press that button!
Wow! The whole city has been flooded by water already!
Nobita-kun, let’s try swimming up to the surface.
The whole city is like an ocean!
Not just this city, but the entire world!
Amazing!
Delicious, right?
That was...
Nobita-kun, what are you doing?
I saw a mermaid swimming past me.
Mermaid? Seriously?
But I clearly saw it...
Come on, let’s go take pictures.
All right, smile!
W-What was that?
Let’s go take a look.
S-Shark!
Calm down there.
A shark? Here? Impossible.
I saw it swim pass the cigarette store.
The one who is swimming is you.
You drank too much.
It’s because Tanaka-san poured me one too many...
You should hurry home or else your wife will scold you.
But I clearly saw it!
All right, all right, go home!
There really was a shark swimming past here.
Oh! Look! There's a sardine!
I guess I really drank too much.
I’m sorry.
Did you hear that, Nobita?
Not a mermaid, but a...
Shark!
That's no good!
We must catch it and bring it back to the sea.
Hey, Doraemon!
How did Papa see the shark?
He's not wearing these goggles.
Why don’t you try taking off your goggles.
All right.
Ouch.
Nobita-kun, look!
You can't see the water anymore, but the fish are still there.
These goggles simulate the water.
In short, the water is an illusion, but the fish is real.
Therefore, Papa could still see the fish swimming around here.
Now, let’s go search for the shark.
All right.
What was that?
Eh? What's that?
Not here either.
Just where the heck are you, shark?
Nobita-kun, behind you!
Help!
"Homesick Frog Orgel!"
Come here, come here!
Come and eat me, shark!
Once they hear the melody from the Homesick Frog,
any fish will immediately feel homesick and go straight back home.
All of the fish has returned to the sea already.
We should also go back home as well.
That’s right, I’m already sleepy.
Good night, Doraemon!
Good night.
Geh! Seems like it’s going to rain.
Nobita-kun, come and look at the pictures from yesterday!
I know.
What is that?
Oh no!
Eh? What’s the problem?
That... that thing...
You saw it?
Yeah...
No way! Could it be the shark from yesterday?
Shark? What I saw was a girl!
So cute!
But that's weird.
I clearly saw a fish tail.
S-Super cool!
Oh my!
Wow, such a cute girl.
A new friend?
Nobita, why don’t you welcome her inside?
Yes!
She must be really thirsty.
Huh? What is she saying?
I don’t know.
Was it because she drank that juice?
"Translation Jelly!"
Oh, it’s sunny again. Time to do the laundry.
W-Well…
What is this? It looks a pufferfish.
Puffer?
Hey, I am a cat, you know!
Cat?
What are you laughing at?
Sorry, sorry.
I am Nobita, and this is...
I'm Doraemon, the robotic cat.
I am Sophia.
Even though I said that I wasn’t lying, Mom didn’t believe me at all.
I clearly saw a shark swimming around town last night!
What are you talking about?
Sharks live in ocean! How can there be a shark swimming on land?
By the way, I heard that Dekisugi saw the shark, too.
No way!
There’s no way that could happen. He is not Nobita, you know.
Me?
What about me?
So cute...
Hey Nobita, who is she?
Let me introduce her. She's Sophia-san.
I am showing her around.
Well, this is...
I am Nobita-chan’s close friend, Gian, full name Goda Takeshi.
I am Suneo.
I am Shizuka. Nice to meet you.
Sophia-san, where are you from?
Hmm... I'm not sure...
It's just a plane.
Wonderful... It's swimming in the sky…
Swimming? That's an interesting word to use.
Seems like Sophia-san has never seen a plane before.
No way, in this day and age?
It's like she’s from the old countryside.
I hate it when you talk like that!
Oh yeah!
Let's show Sophia-san around together.
It hurts! It hurts!
We'll just keep going down this street.
Wait for me!
Hey, where is Sophia-san?
Sophia-san, watch out!
Damn girl! That's dangerous!
Tsk! Where were you looking?!
I’m sorry!
Sophia-san, you should watch the traffic light.
That's...
Ah, it’s just a Takecopter.
So I can swim in the sky with it?
Yeah…
Sophia-san, don’t fly too fast!
I can’t believe it! I am actually swimming in the sky.
Sophia-san.
What should we do? What should we do? What should we do?
Water!
Please... get me to a place with water.
Dora-chan, hurry and take her to my house.
All right! "Anywhere Door!"
Here! This way!
Hang on! Sophia-san!
I will get you in the bath now.
Everyone, get out!
Yes!
Nobita-san as well!
Yes!
Ah well…I forgot the Anywhere Door though...
Out!
Yes!
Seems like Sophia-san also likes taking a bath.
Ah, so pretty.
Nobita, don't you think it's strange?
She doesn’t know things like traffic lights or planes.
Oh! Could it be that Sophia-san is...
A Kappa?!
What the hell are you talking about?!
Well, she needed water.
You call her a Kappa by just that?
Yeah.
Hey, Doraemon.
Are there really mermaids?
First a Kappa and now a mermaid?
What do you mean by that?
When I first met Sophia-san...
I remember her legs were...
A tail like that of a mermaid.
Ah! That’s right!
Dorami is calling me!
Hello?
Ah, big bro!
I know something about that mermaid.
Where are you now?
I’m at Shizuka-chan’s room.
We will let Dorami figure this out.
Big bro!
I'm all right.
By the way, what do you know about the mermaid?
Leave it to the newest "Time Cellphone!"
Before that, Nobita-san, please draw a picture of a mermaid for me.
Draw a mermaid?
The oldest legends of mermaids appeared around 3000 BC.
Which means about 5000 years ago.
That long ago?
Finished!
A mermaid was described as a creature with a human head and a fish tail.
Just like what is in Nobita-san’s picture.
But please look at this.
What is this?
A fish?
Or a human?
This is a god in oriental mythologies called Oannes.
The legends say that he comes from the sea and he taught humans knowledge about civilization.
There are also legends saying he was the first mermaid.
Oannes was a God who protected the seas.
He was trusted and worshipped by man.
There's more.
In Greek mythology,
Triton, son of Poseidon,
also had a half human, half fish form.
So there were lots of legends about mermaids then?
But isn't there also a type of fish in the sea that is often mistaken as mermaids?
Right! This is a dugong.
It doesn’t look like a mermaid at all.
When seeing the image of a dugong playing with its child,
people often mistook them for the image of mermaids.
Really?
Sophia-san.
I left you a change of clothes, okay?
I'm going to drop your clothes in the laundry.
No! Don’t touch them!
Well then, I will contact you again if something happens.
All right! Thank you, Dorami!
What happened?
Shizuka-chan...
...became a mermaid!
Sophia-san, this is...
Eh?! You came from the sea?
Yes. These clothes help us swim freely in the water.
Sorry for surprising you.
Not at all!
By the way, becoming a mermaid is also pretty cool.
Really?! Thank goodness!
That’s right!
Last night, she wandered here when the city was flooded in simulated water.
Well then, your home is at the coral reefs?
Yeah, the mermaid tribe came to Earth around 5000 years ago and built a civilization in the deep ocean.
"Came to Earth?"
Then you are an alien?
She also said that it was around 5000 years ago, which matches the time when legends of the mermaids appeared.
So that’s it. The ancestors of Sophia-san had lived in the ocean ever since.
That explains why there are legends of mermaids everywhere in the world.
But why did your tribe come to Earth?
According to the legends, my tribe lived in peace on a beautiful planet just like Earth called Aqua.
However...
The ocean got polluted.
The planet fell into ruin and died.
That’s why your people came to Earth?
Actually, we mermaids are not allowed to go to the surface.
But I really wanted to find my home planet.
That’s why I came up from the sea.
Let's go see the stars now, then!
What are you talking about, Nobita?
You only see stars at night!
Right, right!
We just have to go at night then, right?
That’s right! We can watch stars at different locations on Earth, can’t we?
We will go there at once.
Nobita-chan is smart sometimes, isn’t he?
But where should we go?
There are lots of places that is night now.
Sophia-san, do you remember which direction planet Aqua is?
Sorry, I don’t remember it that well.
But from the legends, Aqua and its 4 moons gather together to make a pentagon.
If it’s a pentagon, maybe it's Auriga?
Auriga = Gyoshaza
Auriga? Dumplings?
Dumplings = gyoza
I said Auriga!
Whatever! We should go now!
But Auriga only appears in winter.
Right now, we can’t see it from Japan.
Hey, why don't we go south? It's still winter there.
That’s true!
Now, let us go watch stars!
Ah! It’s cold!
Of course! It's winter here!
Wow!!!
Whoa! It’s as if we could touch those stars.
It’s truly beautiful.
How pretty.
Which star did your ancestors come from, Sophia-san?
Aqua must be among those stars.
By the way, Suneo.
Where are the pentagon's dumplings?
I told you it’s Auriga!
Right, right! That’s it!
Over there? Or over there?
Well... I don’t know.
What?
Can’t you see? There are so many stars!
Each of them looks the same!
And it's too cold!
Let's go home already.
Suneo!
Stop right there!
Stop! Stop! Stop!
You're not getting away!
Wait! Suneo!
What did I do wrong?
Suneo, you must find those dumplings.
It’s Auriga!
It's all because you can't tell where Auriga is that Sophia-san is in despair!
Do you understand?!
That’s right! To her, it's a very important star!
Get your act together!
Even if you say so...
It's too cold outside!
Aren't you a man?
Yes! Tough it out!
Tough it out! Tough it out!
What are you saying?!
Thank you, everyone.
It's fine, really.
But what about your home star?
I got to see lots of beautiful stars.
Just that is satisfying enough.
Suneo-san, thank you very much.
I guess I should go back to my palace.
Sophia-san lives in a palace?
Yeah.
Does that mean that you are a queen?
I have not inherited the throne yet.
I am just a mermaid princess.
Princess!
Is she there?
Nope.
Princess!
Jeez!
If the surface people found her, there will be trouble.
Have you found her yet?
We can't find her anywhere!
Just divide up and search for her some more!
The palace must be really beautiful.
Hey Doraemon, I want to go!
It's a palace underwater, right?
I really want to go see!
Yeah, I want to go there, too.
Me too!
M-Me too...
Hey, hey, Doraemon!
Sophia-san, is it okay?
Of course, I'll be glad to show you guys around.
Then it’s decided!
Let’s go to the palace under the sea.
Jeez, everyone.
What? You found the mermaid tribe?
Yes, sir!
This guy must be one of them.
Tragis!
Well done. Keep observing.
Yes, sir!
My ancestors also came from the mermaids.
The legendary mermaid armor...
Now I only need to find that sword.
When I have both the armor and the sword,
I can control of the universe!
Let me explain the Clone Mirror.
Now, which color should I use...
Sophia-san, can you stand in front of the mirror?
Yes.
What are you doing, Doraemon?
Everyone, stay out of the way.
We’re sorry.
One is done!
If we want to go under the sea,
I think it’s most convenient that we wear clothes like what Sophia-san's wearing.
What is this magic?
It’s not magic.
Doraemon can do anything!
Although he's failed many times.
That’s right.
We'll leave after you guys change your clothes!
"Familliar Light!"
With this, you guys can live in any environment.
Even in the ocean?
Right! But its effect only lasts 24 hours.
Doraemon, that's enough.
Ah, that’s right.
All right, let’s go.
Yahoo!
This is called "Watertight Rope."
It makes water stay outside the circle made by the rope.
It’s amazing.
Dora-chan has lots of magic just like the goddess of the ocean, Manatia!
Goddess of the ocean?
Manatia?
Yeah. My grandmother told me about her.
Whenever the mermaid tribe is in danger,
she would wield the legendary Mermaid Sword to protect everyone.
Mermaid Sword?
It’s a treasure passed down by my ancestors which we have protected for thousands of years.
However, no one knows where it is now.
Was it stolen?
It's been 5000 years already.
Some say it's just a legend.
Legendary Mermaid Sword? That sounds cool!
But it's only a legend.
Oh yeah! Doraemon!
Let's search for that sword!
But...
Can you really find it, Dora-chan?
U-Um...
Well then!
Before your eyes is the legendary ocean god, the one who is even better than Manatia, Doratia!
Ocean god?
A raccoon god, more like it.
Yeah, yeah!
I am not a raccoon!
All right, if that's the case...
Not this, not this, not this, not this...
Found it!
"Treasure Scroll" and "Mystery Ink Heater!"
All right, Sophia-san, hold this.
Ok.
What’s that?
When we want to find something important,
it will give us a precious hint.
If the Mermaid Sword really exists,
there would be a hint appearing on the paper.
Sophia-san, try it.
Here it comes!
With the wish from the royal blood, 5 lights will join together, and the wish will be granted.
What does that mean?
If we figure it out, we can find the sword.
"With royal blood?"
Does that mean Sophia-san?
Ah! What is this?
This is...
The ancient script of the mermaid tribe.
What does it say?
I’m sorry, it is too ancient for me to read.
Sophia-san!
The Mermaid Sword really exists somewhere!
Yep!
Once we solve this riddle, we can find it!
Grandma might know something.
Sophia-san.
Good morning.
Good morning, Shizuka-san.
That tiara is so beautiful.
Well, this is the princess's crest of the mermaid tribe.
The princess's?
I really wanna know what it feels like to be a princess!
Shizuka-san, do you want to try wearing it?
Eh? Is it okay?
Yeah.
Just try becoming a princess for a little bit.
Thank you very much.
I'll hold on to that for you.
Wonderful.
Good morning.
Nobita-kun, wake up! We're leaving!
Wake up, Nobita-kun.
Wow! So cool!
The palace is right down there.
Let’s go.
All right!
Hey, Doraemon.
Huh?
Shouldn't it get darker as we dive deeper?
That’s true.
But it's stilll pretty bright.
The surroundings are really getting darker though.
But thanks to the Familliar Light,
we can still see clearly.
Even when we dived 10,000 meters deep, it will still be as clear as the surface.
Start the operation!
Goodness! No more!
Can we rest for a bit?
Can’t you even swim for one hour?
That's so lame, Nobita-kun!
How about we leave you alone here?
Monsters will come and eat you whole!
Hey, don't say that!
You should be like that.
W-What?
It's here!
What is that?
Probably...
a sea eel?
But it looks far bigger than usual.
I can tell just by looking at it!
Run away!
I-It's coming!
Everyone, come and hide here!
Doraemon! Help me!
Nobita!
Nobita-kun!
Spare me! I’m not tasty at all!
Nobita-kun!
Hang in there, Nobita.
Over here!
Look!
Help me!
W-What should I use now?!
Right, the "Air Cannon!"
Doraemon!
Mama!!!
Doraemon!
What? How come this pufferfish is so fat?
I am not a pufferfish! I am a cat! A cat!
All right, come at me!
It’s getting smaller.
Why is that?
I don't know, but this looks strange.
What?
This sea eel.
It was probably controlled by someone.
Who, then? Who?
How would I know?
What are you saying now after all we've just went through?!
Stop it, Gian!
What did you say?!
Haribo!
Princess!
I’m so glad you are safe!
It's someone Sophia-san knows. We're saved.
Haribo, something doesn't feel right. Please investigate for me.
All right. But first, you have to return to the palace.
You should go talk to Professor Mejina.
You're right.
Let's go, then.
Queen Ondeita is worried.
I know.
Then Dora-san and the others...
I know. I will take care of them.
You should go now. The queen is waiting.
I have a bad feeling about this, too.
Are you Haribo?
I am Nobita, nice to meet you.
Hey, where are you going?
Why are you so cold?
I hereby arrest all of you on kidnapping charges!
Kidnapping?
Are you talking about us?
Who?
The princess!
Sophia-san?
What are you talking about?
Take them in!
W-What should I do now?
No!!!
Professor Mejina.
The words written on that document...
The giant eel attack...
Are they related in some way?
It does sound interesting.
If only I can meet the one who created this scroll then perhaps I can figure something out.
Haribo should be bringing him back.
Well then...
Let me call Haribo.
Oh? Are these...
Oh no!
It hurts...
Doraemon, hurry, think of something.
I can't reach my pocket...
How dare you kidnap the princess?
Unforgivable!
W-What is that?
A megalodon!
What is it?!
A giant shark which lived on Earth 2 million years ago.
I thought they were extinct though.
Hey, hey, hey!
Does that mean we will become its lunch?
Lunch?
We'll be its lunch!
No way! We have to run away somehow.
How?
Calm down, you two.
I taste horrible... Just terrible...
Haribo.
Princess.
Stop this stupid punishment at once.
But... these guys kidnapped you!
Stop it at once!
All right!
Not tasty...
Not tasty at all!
Not tasty! Not tasty!
What is this terrible resonance?!
Haribo!
Set Dora-chan and the others free at once!
But…
Can't you see?
They are crying for help!
Mama!
Gian, stop that.
I'd rather have that Megalodon eat me!
I’m sorry, everyone.
It’s fine.
But it was really scary.
Because of Gian’s song?
What did you say?
By the way, where's Shizuka-chan?
What did you cry out for?
Maybe she is still there.
You mean... in that cave?
Maybe...
Haribo.
Did you leave Shizuka-san behind?
Uh... I didn't know...
This is bad! We have to go find Shizuka-chan at once.
Princess!
What’s the matter?
Queen Undine wants to see you.
My grandmother?
Yes, and she also said to bring the others along with you.
Us as well?
But Shizuka-chan is still...
You two should go with Sofia-san.
Let Suneo and I take care of Shizuka-chan.
Don’t worry. We will bring Shizuka-chan back.
Of course, we'll also need this guy's help.
S-Sorry, I have a call.
Dorami?
Big bro!
I learned something interesting about mermaids.
Now is not the time.
Leave it for another time, okay?
Big bro...
Jeez!
Big bro is always like this.
That's why I told you...
Amazing!
I can’t believe that a whole city is under water.
Yeah, it’s amazing.
Now, let’s go.
I will introduce you all to my grandmother.
Gian, did you find her? Did you?
Not here.
Look what you've done! What should we do, what should we do now?
Shizuka-chan...!
Does he go buck wild like this often?
Yeah.
Shizuka-chan, where are you?!
He's a good guy, you know.
Anyway, look under us.
What's that?
I don’t know... But...
But what?
Commander! We found this.
What's that?
Take that back to Professor Mejina’s lab at once.
Bring these black liquids back as well.
Yes, sir!
Hey! Commander, just what is going on?
I have a feeling that the sea eel which attacked you guys was controlled by them.
“Them?"
And Shizuka-san was kidnapped by them.
What?!
Shizuka-chan!!!
Who are the people that kidnapped Shizuka-chan?!
Grandma!
Is that Sophia-san’s grandmother?
Doraemon!
She looks scary.
You are so rude, Nobita-kun.
Sooner or later, you will take my place as Queen.
Consider your actions and attitude.
But Grandmother, when I become the Queen,
I will have no freedom at all.
That's why I want to learn as much as I can!
Shut up!
Sit down, Sophia.
So big!
Too big!
Hurry up, hurry up!
Sophia, you bear the future of the mermaid tribe on your shoulders.
I only want that this kingdom to live in peace and happiness.
That is the role of the royalty.
I want you to understand that responsibility.
That's why I don’t want you to be so stubborn anymore.
Do you understand?
Yes.
Excuse me...
I don’t really understand,
but being a princess means a lot of commitments, doesn’t it?
I didn't know.
But I think that no matter what happens, Sophia-san will become a wonderful queen.
She is cool, energetic, reliable, and also very beautiful.
That’s why I'm glad to become friends with her.
I don't think her problems are that simple...
Really?
Nobita-kun.
Thank you.
I hope that we can be friends forever.
Undine-sama!
We're back.
Eh? Where is Shizuka-chan?
Sorry...
We couldn’t find her.
What?!
But we found some very strange stuff back there.
Some black fluid, too.
Your theory seems right, Professor.
I see. Continue on.
Yes, sir.
They did it?
Who are you talking about?
Everyone knows who they are.
Nothing to do with you surface people.
What did you say?
Gian, calm down.
This fool's been like this.
I’m sorry. Can I talk to Haribo for a bit?
Ah, yes.
Haribo.
Why can't you get along with them?
They are from the surface!
The surface dwellers rule over the lands.
They waste away resources and also pollute the beautiful ocean.
How can I accept them?
Nobita-kun and the others are different.
They treasure the Earth.
They'll protect it, definitely.
That's what I think.
I believe in them. Understand?
Yeah...
That thing is made of metal not from this Earth.
Same thing with the dark liquid.
Thus, my conclusion would be...
That the merman tribe came to Earth?
Yes!
How could that be?
Your Highness, what is the merman tribe?
You know that the mermaid tribe moved here from the planet Aqua, right?
Yes.
A long time ago,
we used to live with the merman tribe on Aqua.
However...
the merman tribe harnessed the powers of the waters for their own benefit.
In time, they conquered the entire planet.
Those who survived fled to the mountains to continue the futile fight against the enemy's superior numbers.
We finally had to leave planet Aqua.
After a long jouney through the universe...
Everyone came to Earth.
Did they really kidnap Shizuka-chan?!
I’m afraid that's what happened.
Tell me where is the Mermaid Sword is!
What are you talking about?
Don’t fool around with me!
I know for sure that mermaid tribe is hiding it.
I really don’t know anything about it!
How can the mermaid princess not know?
Princess? No, I'm not the Princess...
Is that tiara on your head fake?
Sophia, what happened to your tiara?
I gave it to Shizuka-san…
Ah!
Then Shizuka-san was…
What's wrong?
I’m sorry. That tiara was a crest of the royal family.
That means they mistook Shizuka for Sophia.
Doraemon, we must think of some way to rescue Shizuka-chan.
But why would they want to kidnap Sophia-san?
I'm thinking the reason lies here...
That’s right! They want the Mermaid Sword!
This guy...
Stop that!
Let me go!
Why did you do that?!
How do know about the Mermaid Sword?
Did you tell them?
Grandmother.
They want to help us find that sword.
Um, Professor.
Excuse me for a second.
What's this?
Nice to meet you. I'm Dorami.
This time it’s a yellow fat puffer fish.
What's with this thorny kid?
You are rude!
There, there.
Why did you come out from the pocket?
That’s right.
Big bro, you forgot the reserve pocket.
Ah, so you went into that pocket?
Yep.
So why did you come here for?
You're always so...
This is so interesting!
Um...
Quite interesting.
Professor!
Can I have a look at that pocket?
Hey! Pay attention!
Shizuka-chan!
Oh, so the princess is called Shizuka-chan?
H-He looks scary.
Did you kidnap Shizuka-chan?
Set her free now!
At once!
I am the leader of the merman tribe, Bulkin.
I have your princess here.
S-She's not-!
Sophia.
Hand me the sword!
Hand me the Mermaid Sword right now!
If you don't...
Shizuka-san!
Damn it! You coward!
It hurts...
Here's something extra!
If you want her to live,
hand me the sword! Got that?!
You can’t.
Why should you...
Do not stop me.
If I tell them that I am the real princess,
I should be able to save Shizuka-san.
If you are going to stop me, then just go back.
No way...
Princess...
With the wish from the royal blood, five lights will join together, and the wish will be granted.
Five lights will join together...
I don't think we should find the sword first.
What is this Mermaid Sword you guys keep talking about?
I’m sorry I'm late.
Have you guys figured out anything?
Sophia-san, what does the Mermaid Sword look like?
No one has ever seen it.
Legend says that it shone as bright as pearls.
Then why don't we use this?
"Instant Pearls!"
This can make pearls, for sure...
But we want a sword!
Yeah! We need a sword.
Well then, let's make this into a sword.
With that?
They're figure out that it's a fake right away.
Actually, it's a pretty good idea.
That's right! They'll never figure it out.
I guess so.
Give that to me.
Haribo!
All right, I'm putting it inside.
Dorami!
Yeah.
Run, everyone!
Hurry up!
We ran for this?
All right! It’s finished.
Nice one, Nobita!
Sometimes you do get things done.
All right, let's go rescue Shizuka-san!
Sophia-san, leave the rest to us.
Please lend us a battleship.
No, I will also go.
You will soon become this kingdom's ruler.
You cannot endanger yourself.
If I can't even protect Shizuka-san,
then what right do I have to rule an entire kingdom?
Now's the time to act.
Let's go save our friend.
That’s great!
It hurts! It really hurts! But that was truly great.
Oh my, what are you saying?
Princess.
Haribo, you want to stop me again?
No! Please! Take me with you.
To protect you, Princess, I will do anything!
Don't be so hasty.
To work together is a wonderful thing, you know?
Rather than being by yourself, it'll be much better with our powers combined.
That’s right.
We are friends, aren’t we?
Let's go together.
All of us, okay?
You are quite stubborn sometimes,
but without you here, it'll be quite boring.
I'll be bored.
Nice to have you along.
Princess!
We really need you, little commander!
Yes!
Now, let’s go!
Doraemon-san and Nobita-san will take the front.
The others will wait here.
Are you all right, Nobita-ksan?
My chest hurts a bit, and I’m feeling dizzy.
I feel like that as well...
Me too...
Just now, too...
That's strange.
Ah! Oh no!
What’s wrong?
The effect of the Light is wearing out.
Dorami, take care of Gian and Suneo.
Big bro, Shizuka-san is in danger!
Yeah, there are only 30 minutes left!
It hurts...
Shizuka-sama!
Nobita-san! Dora-chan!
Princess, we are going to save you.
What? Kids?
They're underestimating us.
Where's Bulkin?!
I, Tragis, is more than enough to take care of you two.
Anyway, give me the Mermaid Sword right now!
It’s in here!
Good! Bring it over here!
No way! Set the princess free first!
So troublesome! Why don’t we just kill them off?
Wait until we get the sword.
Dorami-chan, how much time is left?
Let me see... Oh no! Only four minutes left.
We don’t have enough time!
But we can't do anything...
Shizuka-chan!
From studying the ancient script, the secret of the Mermaid Sword
has something to do with the princess.
The armor, the sword, and the princess's tiara were used by the same person 5000 years ago.
Sakana-kun, go to the next page.
Yes.
When the three treasures gather, they will create a huge power that can control the entire world.
From the script, it looks like the chosen one is Sophia.
Sophia?
All right.
We will exchange.
Go.
Hey you, the blue pufferfish.
I am not...
Bring the sword over here.
a pufferfish!
Only two minutes left.
Hurry up, hurry up!
Why did you stop?
Let me see the sword first.
Release the princess first.
No, the sword first!
Only a minute and a half left.
Do you want to die, blue puffer?
I am a cat!
Oh no!
Shizuka-chan!
Only a minute left.
Big bro.
This is bad! This is bad!
Doreamon!
Look at this.
That's...
Now, release Shizuka-chan... no, the Princess at once!
Only 30 seconds left.
All right, we'll release the princess.
What are you doing?
Shizuka-chan!
20 seconds!
12 seconds left!
Take this, Nobita-kun.
Shizuka-chan!
Hurry up! The Light!
T-That's enough.
Shizuka-chan!
Nobita-san, Dora-chan, I...
Thank goodness!
That was close.
What should we do with them?
Now that we have the sword, they are useless now.
Do whatever you want.
Shizuka-chan, are you okay?
Are you hurt anywhere?
I’m all right.
Thank you, Nobita-san, Dora-chan.
Thank goodness.
Fire! Fire at will!
Watch out!
Nobita-kun!
Swim over here!
Hurry up!
Nobita!
Nobita-kun!
We have to help them!
There we go!
Finally!
Shizuka-san, now's our chance!
Yeah, but...
Go, Shizuka-chan.
Take this!
I’ve had enough of this!
That brat doesn’t know how to swim, does he?
That’s right.
Nobita-san!
Are you all right?
Air Cannon!
Weakling!
Take this!
Big bro, step back!
What's up with her?
Shoot it! Shoot it!
Reverse Cloak!
Yes!
Dorami-chan, you're amazing!
T-That's...
B-Big bro...
Run!!!
You call this the legendary Mermaid Sword?
You idiots!
Fooled by such a fake...
Please forgive us!
Listen carefully!
According to legend,
there are red jewels engraved on both the sword and armor.
Thousands of years ago, when we fought with the mermaid tribe,
there was a warrior who used the sword and wore the armor to fight us.
There was one more artifact along with the sword and the armor.
The princess's tiara.
According to legend,
the tiara, armor, and Mermaid Sword could only be wielded
by those with royal blood and chosen by Manatia, the ocean god.
The one chosen by god
was the hero who led the mermaids in the fight against the merman.
That hero's name was also Sophia.
It's the same name, right?
What happened after that?
As the mermaid numbers dwindled...
...and victory far in sight...
They were forced to leave the planet Aqua.
The mermaid armor was taken by the merman tribe and the sword disappeared.
The only thing that the mermaid tribe kept was...
...the princess' tiara.
The only one who has the ability to use the power of that tiara is you, Princess.
According to legend,
the armor and the sword have a link with each other.
Tragis.
Yes, sir!
The sword must be around here somewhere.
Listen up. Find the sword even if you have to destroy the mermaid tribe.
Yes, sir!
I must get the Mermaid Sword!
Go!
All forces, attack!
Yes, sir!
Your Highness! The mermans have started their attack!
We have no choice. Prepare for battle!
Yes, madam!
Haribo, let’s go!
Yes, Princess!
Sophia!
Yes!
This time, I'm counting on you.
Do what you believe is right.
Grandmother!
Where this war will lead, even I do not know.
It will be dreadful, I'm sure.
That’s why I'm putting the responsibility onto your shoulders.
Please forgive me...
I was too strict with you.
But do not forget this.
I love you more than anymore.
Grandma!
Me too! I love you!
Sophia.
I also like big bro a lot.
I do as well, Dorami.
I’m just kidding.
Well then, let's go defeat the merman tribe!
Take this!
Shoot! Shoot!
Reverse... Eh?!
Brats!
How dare you trick us!
Ouch!
Good job!
Those with a dark heart will stain the sword.
Those with a kind heart will sharpen it.
That last secret engraved in the legends...
The princess will surely decipher it!
Give me a report.
It's bad. We lost nearly half of our forces.
We'll retreat for now.
Princess...
Oh, Manatia!
I cannot lose any more of my people. Please! Give me strength!
Give me the power to protect them!
With the wish from the royal blood,
five lights will join together,
and the wish will be granted.
That is...
The Mermaid Sword!
Yes, it is. The legend is true.
That sword...
So this is the Mermaid Sword?
Bulkin got it!
Bulkin!
That sword is not for you to wield!
At long last, I have obtained it!
Help us!
Taste the power of the Mermaid Sword!
What is that?
No clue...
Oh snap! Everyone, run away!!!
Kill all that resist!
What the heck is that monster?
Nobita-kun!
I will become the lord of the universe!
Where is this?
That’s right! I’ve fallen into the center of the Watertight Rope!
All right!
"Fish Grabber! Deluxe Version!"
Nooo!
Mom!
Everyone, hang in there!
All right! Caught them!
Kill all of the mermaids!
This is terrible.
I didn’t know how strong that sword was...
If this keep up, everyone will die...
Oh God! Please protect our mermaid tribe.
Is this it? It's all over?
Sophia-san!
We will take that sword back!
We got here with our powers combined!
We won't give up that easily!
Nobita-kun.
Yes! That’s right!
What can we do now, Doraemon?
Big bro!
Why don’t we lure Bulkin here?
That's right! There's no water here, so the Mermaid Sword will have no effect.
But this circle is too small!
Oh yeah, we'll use the Fish Oxygen Tank.
Woot! I got it on my first try.
What's that for?
Bulkin just needs to touch it.
But if you want to use that, you have to use the Simulated Water Pump first.
It's still on.
Eh?
You sure?
Yeah!
Then I'll go get it.
But Dora-chan,
how do we lure Bulkin?
Good question!
We will use this.
A new tool?
This is just a normal surfboard.
There he is!
Take this!
How's that?
Damn you!
Everyone, hurry to the island over there.
All right!
Oh no! What should I do!
Sophia, hurry up!
This way!
Where's Dorami-chan?
Not yet. Before she comes...
Put this on!
What is this?
It’s just the Simulated Water Goggles.
That's it for you guys!
Surrender, Bulkin!
You tricky Earthlings...
Die along with the princess!
I won’t let you!
Finally, after 5000 years.
I can finish off the mermaid tribe.
Die!
W-What's going on?
Hooray!
It's just simulated water!
What do you say?
No way...
You can't use the Mermaid Sword if you're not under real water!
That sword is not meant for evil people like you.
Give the Mermaid Sword back to us at once.
Whoever stands in my way shall die!
Sophia-san!
You brat!
Sophia-san!
Sophia-sama!
Stop right there!
Mermaid...
I admit your courage for challenging me.
But this is the end.
As long as I have this sword in my hand,
The whole universe will have to kneel before me.
Die!
Found it!
"Unbeatable Blade!"
Simulated Water Pump!
What the heck is that?
Everyone, stay away!
Dorami, press the button!
Okay!
R-Release me!
Please! Let me out!
Surrender now!
Bulkin, your leader, has already been defeated.
No way!
Just put down your weapons...
There is no way we'll surrender to the mermaid tribe.
We are invincible!
The ocean is...
Amazing!
That's amazing!
Yes!
Beautiful!
Yeah.
Hey, what’s wrong with you?
The sea is so beautiful...
So beautiful...
Sophia-san.
This is the real power of the Mermaid Sword.
Yeah.
One day,
I will bring this sword back to planet Aqua.
But planet Aqua is in the hands of the merman tribe. It's nothing but a dead planet now.
Even still, it’s also our home, right?
We can't give up!
That's what Nobita-kun and the others taught us.
I will use this sword to make the ocean beautiful like before,
and return beauty to Aqua.
That is the noble quest that we, the mermaid tribe, have to complete.
Right, Haribo?
Yes, Princess.
We're really glad to have met you guys.
Thank you very much!
It’s so tight in here!
Do something!
That's impossible!
The princess has really grown up.
Yeah, it’s time to give her the throne.
Long live Queen Sophia!
What’s wrong, Shizuka-chan?
Last night I didn't go back home!
Mom will surely scold me for that.
Oh no!
What should I do now?
So we only need to return to yesterday, right?
Yep.
Hey, Doraemon!
It’s dangerous, Nobita-san!
Thank you!
I wonder if we can meet Sophia-san again?
I can say this for sure.
The legend of Sophia-san will be told for generations to come.
Sophia-san sure was cute.
Takeshi-san, behave yourself!
No way!
I’m sorry, Shizuka-chan.
Nobita? Nobita?
He's playing baseball.
Not again.
Papa, go shopping for me.
Please, Dorami-chan!
You're always making excuses for everything.
2 cans of bean curd,
4 packs of dried fish,
bacon, egg and beer for Papa...
and melon bread for Dorami!
I love you, Mama!
What the heck are you doing?
Hey everyone, was that fun?
Look forward to seeing us again next year!
Doraemon 2011 Coming in Spring!
Look forward to it!
