Anime Like Doraemon: Nobita no Kyouryuu (2006)
A kid raises a dinosaur he wasn't supposed to find, and the movie doesn't waste time pretending he gets to keep it. The real story is Nobita learning what love means when you have to let something go. Prehistoric battles and time-travel stakes matter less than watching him choose the dinosaur's life over his own want, and the Sukima Switch soundtrack makes sure you feel every second of it.
SYNOPSIS
Nobita stumbles upon a fossilized dinosaur egg buried in the ground, and with Doraemon's incredible gadgets, the two manage to bring it back to life. What starts as a secret pet project quickly becomes complicated when they realize keeping a living dinosaur in the modern world isn't sustainable. Nobita decides to return the creature to its rightful era, but when they discover the prehistoric past is under siege by ruthless time-traveling poachers hunting dinosaurs for profit, everything changes. The group can't abandon their dinosaur friend to that fate. Doraemon, Nobita, and their friends travel back to the age of dinosaurs to mount a desperate rescue mission against the hunters. Caught between protecting innocent creatures and stopping dangerous criminals who operate outside the law, the gang faces their most dangerous adventure yet. The lush, untamed wilderness of prehistoric Earth becomes their battlefield as they race to save an entire species from extinction at the hands of greed.
