■ Comments from Reina Higashi, the 5 millionth visitor, and her family
Reina said, "I want to have a lot of fun today."
Her father, Koji, said, "I am very surprised. I am delighted that today is Reina's birthday and we get to spend such a wonderful day here."
Her mother, Ayumi, said, "I was already happy just spending Reina's actual birthday at the museum, and I never expected something even happier to happen. I am overwhelmed with joy."
Among Fujiko・F・Fujio's works, the entire family loves Doraemon.
Reina's favorite Secret Gadget is the "Wishing Star," because it grants wishes.
Her father, Koji, said the Secret Gadget he wants is the "Anywhere Door," so he can see his family instantly even when he's at work.
Her mother, Ayumi, said the Secret Gadget she wants is the "Time Machine," because she would like to peek into the future.
Reina has read through all volumes of the Tentomushi Comics Doraemon. Her mother, Ayumi, added that Reina knows more about Doraemon than her parents, and they look forward to having her teach them things while viewing the exhibits.
