Zubu is the overarching antagonist of the anime movie Doraemon: Nobita in the Wan-Nyan Spacetime Odyssey. He is the ancestor of Nekojara and Sharmee, and the source of Nekojara's goal of vengeance upon humans.
History[]
Zubu is an unnamed cat who is abandoned alongside his siblings when their owner can no longer take care for them, forcing him to steal food while holding a grudge against humans. Nobita and Doraemon eventually find him, give him a name and shelter him alongside many other abandoned pets they've found. However, Zubu remains distrustful and isolating.
Eventually, Zubu and the rest of the pets are taken by Nobita, Shizuka, Suneo and Gian to 300 million years in the past with the Evolution Ray to build their own civilization. After the pets evolved into a civilization, Zubu becomes an influential member of the society and writes the Book of Dark Arts about Doraemon so his descendants could use it for revenge against humanity for abandoning the cats.
A thousand years later, Zubu's descendant Nekojara puts his revenge plan into motion. The main group then manage to foil his plan, putting an end to Zubu's twisted legacy for good.
Trivia[]
- His name means "drenched" in Japanese.
- Zubu is perhaps the only antagonistic character to never engage in a battle against the gang directly, instead, serving as a motivation for the primary antagonist of the movie.
