Doraemon: Season 1, Episode 1396 - Episode 1396 (2024)

Nobita makes decorations for Doraemon's birthday cake with Shizuka at her house, intending it as a special gift for him.

They go outside and meet Suneo, who arrives from the sky carrying various party supplies in his backpack, and he explains what happened to him.

Gian arrives next, bringing snacks with Dorayaki flavor, which Dorami finds boring.

Dorami takes out the Caretaker Rope to do fun things and asks for it to be used for an extreme bungee jump with Gian.

Nobita, Shizuka, and Suneo watch Gian from a distance, then Dorami calls them while Nobita runs away from her.

Nobita sees Doraemon with his cat friends, who are wishing him a happy birthday.

Nobita goes to Dekisugi's house and asks what birthday cake would be most suitable for Doraemon.

Dekisugi suggests making a crescent-shaped cake, which is the oldest cake from ancient Greek times.

When Nobita returns, he is surprised to find all his friends wearing devil costumes, an idea from Dorami to really surprise Doraemon at his birthday party.

They all take Nobita to hide from Dorami.

Nobita suggests to all his friends that they give Doraemon a surprise birthday cake in the shape of a crescent moon from ancient Greece times, according to the book he brought, and they agree with this plan.

Before they can proceed, they have to distract Dorami, who is looking for Nobita.

Doraemon arrives with his cat friends.

Doraemon gives Nobita the Dream Gun and has him shoot it at Dorami to convince her that she has finished making a special surprise for her brother's birthday in her dream.

Doraemon's time runs out, and with a final smile to Nobita, he returns to the future through a closing crack in the wall, leaving Nobita behind.

Now, let me tell you the ending as it unfolds, scene by scene, in the quiet tension of that strange night. The story reaches its close when everything has gone silent after the chaos of failing gadgets and the arrival of the future machine. Doraemon stands there, his body still, his four-dimensional pocket completely empty, no tools left to pull out. Nobita, wide-eyed and trembling, stares at his friend, his voice breaking as he whispers, "Doraemon, what's happening?" A crack splits open in the bedroom wall, glowing with an otherworldly light that bathes the room in blue hues. From this crack emerges another robotic cat, identical to Doraemon but marked by future wear--Future Mon, its metal frame humming faintly as it speaks in a mechanical tone: "I am from the future. Your time here is over, Doraemon. You must return to where you came from." Doraemon turns slowly to Nobita, his round eyes softening with a programmed sadness, no words at first, just a lingering gaze that holds all their shared adventures. Future Mon repeats the command, the crack widening behind it, pulling with invisible force. Doraemon nods once, then says one last thing--his voice steady but final: "Take care of yourself, Nobita." He smiles, that familiar bell around his neck tinkling softly one final time, and steps into the light. The crack begins to seal shut, the glow dimming, swallowing Doraemon whole as the wall mends seamlessly, leaving only faint sparks on the floor. Nobita reaches out too late, his hand touching empty air, tears streaming down his face as the room falls dark. The episode fades to black there, the banned heartbreak complete.

In this close, the key point shines through the characters' raw bond: Doraemon's duty to the future pulls him away, teaching Nobita self-reliance amid loss, while the conflict of time's unyielding march resolves in quiet acceptance. Nobita's fate is to stand alone in the room, forever changed, growing without his guardian; Doraemon's fate is return to his origin, erased from Nobita's daily life but etched in memory; Future Mon vanishes back through the crack, its mission done.

No, there is no post-credit scene in Doraemon Season 1 Episode 1396 (2024). The episode concludes with the standard end credits rolling over a static image of Doraemon and Nobita waving goodbye, accompanied by the theme music fading out, without any additional teaser or bonus footage.
