Doraemon was probably one of the very first comic books that inspired me to draw. I loved and still love the stories, the inventions in those stories, the characters and the neat drawing styles. In the beginning, I copied the characters, then I drew my own, and gradually I started having my own styles. It all started with those little comic books.
Every kid who reads or watches Doraemon wants to have his belly pocket -- a pocket that contains tools of endless possibilities: a door that transfer you to anywhere, a bamboo copter that lets you fly, a spray that solidifies clouds so you can stand on them... I actually think many of those awesome tools can be invented in the future.
Thanks, Doraemon, for bringing me such great imagination, inspirations and hope.
