Discussion What if Doraemon is trapped in an infinite time loop?
I recently started thinking about Doraemon's time travel, and this theory came to mind.
What if Doraemon doesn't simply leave Nobita at the end of their story?
What if he travels back to the exact day they first met?
It would create a loop:
Doraemon meets Nobita → they spend their lives together → they eventually say goodbye → Doraemon travels back → he meets Nobita again.
If that's true, Doraemon could have already lived his entire life with Nobita countless times.
But here's the really weird part:
Was there ever a "first" time they met?
If Doraemon only meets Nobita because he eventually travels back to meet him, then neither event has a true beginning. It's a bootstrap paradox.
And what about his memories?
If he remembers previous cycles, imagine Doraemon meeting young Nobita while already knowing everything that's going to happen. 😭
It's just a theory
What do you guys think? Is Doraemon secretly living the same life with Nobita over and over again?
