Doraemon's Long Tales

Doraemon's Long Tales (Japanese: 大長編ドラえもん, Hepburn: Daichōhen Doraemon), also known as Doraemon's Long Stories, is a manga series based on Fujiko F. Fujio [ja]'s Doraemon. As the name suggests, Doraemon’s Long Tales features whole volumes of longer and continuous narratives about Doraemon, Nobita and friends on their adventures into various lands of science fiction and fantasy, unlike the regular Doraemon series which is merely compilations ("volumes") of various self-contained shorts.

The series was published in CoroCoro Comic magazine. The first 16 volumes were originally illustrated by Fujiko F. Fujio himself. After his death in 1996, the remaining volumes were written and illustrated by Shintaro Mugiwara and Yasunori Okada. The last eight volumes have the company's name on their covers instead of his name.

The series was adapted to a line of Doraemon films and various remakes, released in Japan cinemas between 1980 and 2004, and back into a separate manga series with screenshots taken from the films. The first 17 were released digitally on Amazon Kindle in color, translated in English for the North American market, on December 27, 2017.

Doraemon: The Record of Nobita's Parallel Visit to the West is the only movie from the 1979 series to lack its own manga version, due to series creator Fujiko F. Fujio falling ill.

Alongside with the above series, a second series called Doraemon's Movie Stories (映画ストーリー　ドラえもん, Eiga sutōrī Doraemon) based on the 2005 series movies was also produced, however the majority of movies in the 2005 series lack their own manga versions.^[1] Most of the adaptations are original stories from the 2005 series. There is also a manga volume based on the DS version of Nobita's Dinosaur 2006.^[2]

The manga from both series have at least slight differences from the movies that adapt them.
