The Doraemons (ザ☆ドラえもんズ Za Doraemonzu) is a spin-off series of the long-running series Doraemon.
The series originated from the first and only 3DO game Doraemon-Legend of Friendship, The Doraemons（ドラえもん 友情伝説ザ・ドラえもんズ), where the six protagonists were created. The original author Fujiko Fujio agrees with the story and adds these settings in the original series, even though the settings wouldn't appear in any of the original manga and anime series. This subseries ran the short anime movie series from 1995 to 2002, and included two versions of manga by Michiaki Tanaka (田中 道明 Tanaka Michiaki) and Yukihiro Mitani (三谷 幸広 Mitani Yukihiro).
The Doraemons, or Dora Dora Seven DD7, is an old boys' association of the Robot School (ロボット学校 Robotto Gakkō) that Doraemon attended. All of the seven male members are cat-like robots of the same type; they enjoy dorayaki, but usually add their own seasoning. They have rock-hard heads that they can use as a weapon or to break things. Doraemon has an especially hard head, since he has no other special weapons, and has no ears or hat to get in the way when using this mode of attack. The gadget that can connect them is the Friendship Telecard. They can call each other with the card from anywhere when one of them is in need.
The Doraemons have 2 versions of volumes in this manga:
