Aimyon, who is himself and others a “huge fan of Doraemon”, wrote the theme song “Sketch” for this work with great love.

Regarding being in charge of Doraemon’s theme song, Aimyon said, “I felt happy, thinking, “It’s finally here! My dream has come true!” Because I wanted to tell Wasabi-san (Mizuta), who I have a close friendship with, “ On the first day of dubbing for “Nobita’s Picture World Story,” I went to the set as a surprise and reported the news directly, and they said, “Your dream has finally come true,” and we cried and hugged each other,” he said, expressing his happiness.

Furthermore, “The theme song “Sketch” was created with the intention of incorporating the image of this work, but also depicting the history of Doraemon and Nobita-kun, who have had various adventures. While thinking about how much to incorporate into the song, I suddenly thought about the daily life of Doraemon and Nobita-kun, and I noticed that Nobita-kun’s face when he took off his glasses before going to bed. I thought that even the traces left by the glasses would be a very cute scene that would make me want to draw it.This led me to create a song that flows smoothly. I think it’s a song that is perfect for the story, which has a gentle and soft impression so that the song doesn’t separate from the work,” he said, lovingly expressing his thoughts on the song.

The theme song was first released at the Hiroshima Green Arena performance of the currently ongoing national arena tour “AIMYON TOUR 2024-25 ‘Dolphin Apart'”. After the preview video with the theme song “Sketch” plays, Doraemon and Nobita appear with Aimyon’s shout! A big announcement was made to the fans who rushed to the venue.

Then, Doraemon said, “It’s a wonderful theme song that will cheer us on our big adventure!” and he said, “Thank you, I’m so happy!” I’m here because I listened to “Sketch” and watched the latest trailer. It’s your first time! I’ve been nervous all day!” Aimyon burst into tears of joy. There was warm applause from the venue.

“Sketch” is a song full of warmth, with a gentle melody and warm lyrics that gently embraces the hearts of those who watched the movie.

A new trailer video using the theme song “Sketch” has also arrived. The video that will be released this time depicts Doraemon, Nobita, and his friends enjoying an adventure in the Principality of Arturia, a medieval European world that expands into the world of paintings by using the secret tool “Hairikomi Light”. From the new friends he met there, Claire and his friends, he hears rumors about a “mysterious jewel” that creates a mysterious blue color that lies dormant in the Principality of Arturia. Doraemon and his friends are excited to find the mysterious jewel, saying, “It’s worth more than diamonds!” However, the “old legends” that have been passed down from generation to generation in the Principality of Arturia come back to life, and they are in a desperate situation…!? Art dealer Pal (Oji Suzuka) is also showing some suspicious behavior… What will be the fate of Doraemon and the Principality of Arturia?

What meaning does the message “The world becomes brighter with everyone’s colors” bring to the story? An exciting poster visual that foreshadows the beginning of a new great adventure has been completed.

■Aimyon comment
Honestly, it still feels like a dream.
All I can say is that it feels like a dream.
I will never forget the day when I surprised Wasabi-san, who has been a good friend of mine even before my major debut, and announced that I would be in charge of the theme song, and we hugged each other and cried.
It was the moment when my dream, our dream, came true.
In “Sketch,” I had a strong desire to sing about Doraemon and Nobita’s casual life.
Even the marks left by Nobita’s glasses on his face were so endearing that I thought, “It would make a picture,” and I could imagine Doraemon looking at him with warm eyes.
I wanted to depict the solid friendship between the two of them, who have always experienced Nobita’s regrets and failures, happiness and fun together.
I also imagined Nobita swaying upright, depicting his days with Doraemon.
To Doraemon, who made my dream come true,
I hope that I can repay you in the greatest way possible through my songs.
Doraemon changed my future,
Also, this work has made many dreams come true!
