In a truly surreal moment, Doraemon has been designated by the Real Life Prime Minister of Japan as the Ambassador between the cartoon world and Japan, with the ceremony including a to-scale model of Doraemon. For example, in 2002, Doraemon was featured along with Aung San Suu Kyi and Hamid Karzai as one of the 22 heroes featured in a special edition of Time Magazine on Asian Heroes.
Even though it's not really popular in certain western countries (such as the United States of America and Canada, which is significant as far as American-dominated websites like TV Tropes are concerned), Doraemon is a very influential series, particularly in the east and the non-English speaking west.
