Episode 7 and Episode 8: I knew the Geocities page existed for a long time till one day I had the idea of see the URL of this image: www.geocities.jp/junmcsammy/001_1.jpg, and I changed "001_1" to "001_2", until I came up with "001_7" (the eight episode's first image) and then I changed it to "001_8" and I realized that the order of the episodes was reversed. Then I started to raise the "001_8" to "002_8", it finished at "198_8", then I did the same process with the other episode. Only those two were the ones that I found with this method.
Episode 3 and Episode 4: I found this page: doraemon.aikotoba.jp/, that seems to be of the animation studio. I looked up at it on the Wayback Machine, and found this: web.archive.org/web/20070626072544/http://doraemon.aikotoba.jp/Doraemon/DoraEmonSubtitle.html, and then I copied "DoraEmonSubtitle" and pasted it on the Masami Jun site. It was an actual page (http://mcsammy.fc2web.com/DoraEmonSubtitle.html), I copied the Image URL of the screenshots of the Episodes 3 and 4 and pasted it into the Geocities site. I analyzed it and I came to the conclusion that the formula of the image URL was: 3-2-001 and 4-001-001 - Episode Number 3-2-001 and 4-001-001 - Scene (or background) Number 3-2-001 and 4-001-001 - Image Number And then I found all the images and blah, blah.
Additional Pilot Images: This link (http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/mcsammy/) that in fact doesn't work anymore, was posted numerous times on japanese forums. I don't remember how I came to Open Wayback, but I did the search of that link there and there were the images.
I'm not sure if there are more hidden screenshots in the Geocities site, as the only highlighted episodes are the 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 24 and 35.
And regarding those things about the series' fate, it has been cleared up that it wasn't destroyed in a fire, and I think that the Fujiko Fujio hate for the 1973 series came with that. They're only "urban legends".
These leads are pretty much hopeless unless we get actual clips of the show beyond the Intro
I object. Mainly because with the screenshots we have found and all the details we have gathered about Doraemon 1973, I think these leads are important. This all seems to be like a puzzle. And we're just missing one (or two) pieces to this grand puzzle that no one bothered to get their hands on to complete.
