He ran downstairs but unfortunately fell and was complaining but the TV grabs his attention about something mysterious on the moon. When he arrived at school, he told his classmates that it was the Moon Rabbit when everyone was discussing about the news but not only did anyone believe him but he was also laughed at. He tries to make them believe and started imitating the rabbits making ricecakes and hits his teacher in the process. He was punished. When he tells Doraemon about this, even he laughs and explains him that this is not possible. But Nobita was determined, so Doraemon had to take out a gadget, the "Divergent View Badge" and created an atmosphere on the moon. Using the animal clay, they created Moonbit and returned to their home. Nobita's Mother tells him to bring susuki grass for Moon Viewing Ceremony. There he saw a boy, but when he called him suddenly he disappeared. The next day, a new student named Luca arrives, and Nobita was surprised to see that it was the same boy he saw yesterday. As soon as Nobita reaches home, he asks Doraemon to take him to the Kingdom. Upon reaching there, they saw that the bamboos plants were glowing which was the effect of the "Lightning Moss", spread by them earlier. Now, Nobita is in the playground with Shizuka, Gian and Suneo and he gives them the badge and invites them to the Kingdom. Luca joins them and they were given a grand welcome at the rabbit kingdom.There, they meet a rabbit which looked like Nobita and named it Nobit and tease Nobita. Shizuka requests Nobit to give them a good tour of the place. Doraemon reveals that they can see this kingdom because of the badge which they are wearing and warns them not to remove it as it is only due to the badge, they are able to breathe. Within a few second he says so, a huge rabbit monster (made by Nobita while making Moonbit) comes and wreaks havoc. Nobita chases him and he fells into a deep abyss without the badge. Soon the group arrived, and Nobit who had seen everything tells them that Nobita had fallen down. Doraemon is very worried about Nobita as how he is breathing. Nobita's voice from below rang out, and the group discovered that Nobita was safe and soon learnt that Luca was not an Earthling. He is the Espal from the planet Kaguya and he has special powers, known as Ether. Luca introduced his friends to his sister Luna, but suddenly they heard a loud noise and they went to the place and discovered that it was AI's song. Luca tells everybody that it is his power is quite different from the other Espal and also that AI can see future. The group decided to do a Space Kart Race on Moon's surface. Gian, Suneo and AI were on the lead. Their cart was about to crash with huge rock, but AI used its power to destroy it. The others arrive there and Luca reveals that they are trying to hide from the people of Kaguya planet and that Diabolo had previously used the Ether power to destroy the Moon of the Kaguya planet to show-off his power but the particles of the Moon covered the whole Kaguya Planet and it had become a dark planet because of which, his parents used a ship to send all the Espal to space to avoid being taken advantage of to do disastrous things again. Then, suddenly, an unknown raid force came out of nowhere and tried to capture Espal. Then the other Espal also came out from their hiding to the surface to enquire about the explosion. The Kaguya beings used "Ether Distortion" to weaken the Espal. The Kaguya beings now had captured all Espal except Luca while Doraemon tells everyone to run towards the "Anywhere Door" to escape but Luca decided to stay and he was also kidnapped. The anywhere door exploded due to the attack of the Kaguya beings. Nobita tells Doraemon to use "Bamboo Copter" to fly to Moon, but Doraemon denied. Just after this Mozo, the Kaguya turtle came out of Shizuka's shirt and tells them to use the emergency ship which he and Luca had used to come to Earth. Doraemon told everybody that he can fix it up and to gather here at 7pm. At 7, they flied off and Doraemon told everyone to take rest as it will take them one whole day to reach there. Upon reaching there, they found Moonbit who was trying to say something, they decide to follow him and found out Luna. Luna revealed that Luca had given his badge to her and that's why she managed to escape. Nobita, Doraemon, Suneo, Mozo and Gian decide to leave for Kaguya and Doraemon gives Shizuka his spare pocket and the "Danger Alarm". Meanwhile, when Commander Godat took Luca to Diabolo, Diabolo reveals that Diabolo now plans to leave Kaguya and attack Earth. Soon after, Godat freed Luca from the handcuffs. He was filled rage to know that he was just being used. The royal servants reach there and arrested Godat and Luca. Upon arriving there,the friends decided to ask the local residents of the planet about the Espal. The residents reveal that they do not know anything about them but all the important people of the planet lived in the Royal Palace. The gang entered the Palace and started searching for Luca and his friends. In the prison, Godat reveals to Luca that he is the descendant of Dr. Godal (the person who created Espal) and gives him a blue orb which he inherited from his ancestors, which Luca kept in his pocket. The gang arrives there and frees the Espal. Luca tells them that Godat is their ally. Gian and Suneo decide to handle the royal soldiers while Godat, Luca, Nobita and Doraemon advance to fight Diabolo. Diabolo's true form was revealed which was a robot. All were shocked to see it. Diabolo attacked the four and they became unconscious while Gian and Suneo's guns had finished and they were also captured. Meanwhile, on the Moon, Shizuka sees Nobit working on something and she starts thinking that as soon as she removes the badge, Nobit and all the Rabbit Kingdom vanishes. She removes it and is shocked to still being able to see Nobit. It is because of the Reality Badge made by Nobit. Shizuka quickly puts on the badge. Luna calls her and says that the Danger Alarm is ringing and Shizuka says, "Idea". Nobita and team wakes up and finds themselves in a cage. Diabolo tell them that he is going to use the Ether to become young again. Soon after, he becomes a bit young. Nobita provokes him to take out a gadget but Doraemon says that his pocket is not there. Diabolo had taken his pocket away when he was unconscious. Then suddenly, Shizuka and Luna along with the Moonbit comes out of Doraemon's pocket and they free the Espal and they tell them that it was due to Nobit's badge. The whole tables have turned against Diabolo and he is about to be destroyed but he manages to capture Luna and escape. He says that he is going to Earth and will destroy it. Then, Mozo says that his shell is hardest in the universe and they put it in the Air Cannon and Luca gives Nobita, a Power Boost and Mozo goes straight through the ship, destroying it completely. Suneo catches Luna and saves her from falling. Suddenly, the blue orb starts shining and the light of the planet is restored. Doraemon investigates the orb and tells them that it is a kind of Shining Moss which was built to multiply and explode, when in contact with Ether. Nobita says that Luca's ancestors knew that one day, he would come back and restore the light of the planet. Godat requests Luca to stay with him but he refuses saying that for a peaceful life, it would be better that Espal remain a myth. Back on Moon, it is time to say goodbye, Luca requests Doraemon to create a theory that Espal are just normal beings and the rabbit ears vanish off and they become normal beings. Doraemon and friends come back to Earth after bidding them goodbye. After this, they bury their badges, so as to ensure a peaceful life for the Espal.
