Dorabase

Dorabase (ドラベース, Dorabesu), subtitled Doraemon Super Baseball Gaiden (ドラえもん超野球(スーパーベースボール)外伝),^[1] is a baseball manga spin-off series by Shintaro Mugiwara based on the characters of long-running series Doraemon since 2000. Though an official series, it is unlike The Doraemons, which is more closely related to the main series.

It is published in Shogakukan's CoroCoro Comic magazine. It is also published in Indonesia by Elex Media Komputindo, in Malaysia by Tora Aman, in Thailand by Nations group and in Vietnam by Kim Dong Publishing House.

Plot

Dorabase takes place in Tokyo in the 22nd century. The protagonist of the story is Kuroemon, a cat robot of the same type as Doraemon and the captain and team manager of the baseball team Edogawa Doras. The manga focuses on the stories of the Edogawa Doras, as it faces countless adversaries and grows from a team unable to win even a single game to a world class amateur baseball team. The rules for baseball remain largely unchanged in the 22nd century, with the notable exception that three designated secret gadgets from the main Doraemon series can be used in each game.
