Doraemon Ends 30-Year Run in Indonesia

Doraemon Ends 30-Year Run in Indonesia

Doraemon, a beloved cartoon about a robotic cat from the future, has stopped airing on Indonesian TV after more than 30 years.

The show, which started in the early 1990s, was a Sunday morning tradition for many Indonesian children.

Doraemon's stories taught lessons about friendship, kindness, and perseverance.

Fans are sad to see it go, but the TV channel hasn't said why it was taken off the air.

The show first became popular in Japan and later spread to many other countries, including Indonesia, where it became a big part of childhood for many people.
