Characters - Nobi family

Nobita family




Nobita's father and laid-back salaryman. He is very considerate of Nobita, often seen arriving home from work to placate Tamako's anger towards Nobita; this habit may come from Nobisuke's own childhood, since his father (and Nobita's grandfather) was very similar to Tamako. He has trouble quitting smoking and is self-conscious about his inability to pass the driving test. He also has a poor memory and sometimes arrives home drunk from nightly business meetings. He was once an aspiring art student. He also likes golf, which most Japanese businessmen and employees play.

Tamako Nobi (Rukia Nobi) (野比 玉子, Nobi Tamako?)
Nobita's stay-at-home mother. She is usually seen scolding Nobita or sending him out of the house (a typical Japanese household punishment used by parents, unlike grounding which is a North American-only punishment). She actually loves her son very much, but is disappointed by his lazy attitude and academic failures. Several episodes involve Nobita trying to avoid his mother’s scolding by using Doraemon’s gadgets. Her maiden name is revealed to be 'Kataoka'. She also disliked animals. She has a tendency of stopping Nobita from going out to play and force him to study. However, on cold weather days, she almost always urges Nobita to go out and play.

Sewashi (セワシ?)
Nobita's great-great-grandson, he is the one who sends Doraemon back to the past to look after Nobita. Sewashi first bought Doraemon in 2112 when Doraemon still had ears and his original factory paint. He sent him because his pocket money was too less due to Nobita's academically and economically medium status. Sewashi is also the owner of Doraemon's sister, Dorami.

Nobisuke (ノビスケ?)
Nobita and Shizuka's son, named after Nobita's father. He is a better athlete than Nobita and far more clever. In one of the stories, he did not hesitate to beat up young Nobita when young Nobita tried to stop him from running away from home. Also, he is shown as being a bully and brave enough to bully Gian and Suneo's son.

Nobirou Nobi (野比のび郎, Nobi Nobirou?)
The younger brother of Nobisuke (Nobita's father). He is an excellent athlete and seems to be successful. He adores his brother very much, and is welcomed the most by his nephew in New year occasion.

Tamao Kataoka (片岡玉夫, Kataoka Tamao?)
Tamako's younger brother and Nobita's uncle.
