Nobita and the New Steel Troops - a feast to the eyes and a strike to the emotions

Warning: Spoilers
Doraemon the Movie: Nobita and the New Steel Troops - Angel Wings were indeed a marvelous remake of the original in 1986. Since 2006, Toho Company has started remaking the originals of Doraemon, turning them into more emotional, educational and more to be the feasts to the eyes.

The storyline of this version and the original are much alike, yet Nobita and the New Steel Troops is actually the most altered version comparing to the comics and its original film. The additions was mainly Pippo, who shares the same role as Lilulu to be the center of emotions in this version. This doubled the emotional scenes, thus making the film much more touchy. The cuddly appearance of Pippo, as I believed, shouldn't be something unnecessary, but rather very important to give the film its emphasis of sympathy and compassion to one another, and the meaning of sacrifice oneself for the right reason. The details about Lilulu and Pippo's communication, stars-like hearts and the seemingly developed love between Nobita and Pippo, Shizuka and Lilulu, made the film much more emotional and more educational to watch. I myself adored this film, though I'm not quite the age to watch stuffs like this. In fact, I have to admit that I was stunt watching this, not because it was worse than the 1986, but it indeed improved in many aspects. It was worth crying at the end, when Pippo and Lilulu were disappearing. It's a fact that this film are what you should watch at least once.
