So, should you keep searching for that raw link? Yes—but do it safely, do it respectfully, and lower your expectations. You won't find the whole 26-year run. But if you find one episode—the one where Nobita finally gets his act together, or the one where Doraemon eats his first Dorayaki—recorded from a CRT in 1982, you’ll have found a treasure worth more than any modern streaming algorithm.
Buy the official Japanese DVDs. They are expensive (sometimes $300 for 50 episodes). However, you can rip these yourself to create the perfect raw—highest bitrate, no subtitles, original audio. This is the only legal way to guarantee a 10/10 raw file.
Discord servers dedicated to "Lost Media" and "Anime Raws" are better than Reddit. Users there share MEGA or Google Drive links privately. Do not ask for "the entire series"; ask for specific episode numbers (e.g., "Looking for raw of Episode 452: The Magic Cloak").
However, the pieces of the puzzle exist. You can find episodes 101-250 from a Japanese LD rip (LaserDisc) that look stunning. You can find episodes 890-1000 from a digital TV broadcast (DSNP). You can find the first 100 episodes reconstructed from VHS fan tapes.
You cannot find a single magnet link or .txt file that leads to all 1,787 episodes in pristine, untouched quality. That holy grail does not exist, likely never will, and is technically impossible given the degradation of early broadcast masters.
