Omg how are you watching Maple Town?? I've been looking for it foe ages!

Yup! I watched only the first 26 episodes, alas.

I'm Saudi and an Arabic speaker, it seems the Arabic dub is not lost media. It's probably a redub of the English dub, as it also stops at episode 26. Before the Venus Centre (which fully dubbed the sequel series Palm Town from Japanese to Arabic, all 44 episodes!), there were no Arabic dub companies dubbing directly from Japanese.

This dub isn't as good as Venus Centre's Palm Town dub, but it's still serviceable and it looks like fans attached the audio to a higher-quality Japanese/raw video.

Unfortunately, for the English dub, much of it is lost media, there are a few official cassette/VHS releases, but not of all of the 26 dubbed episodes (of the original Japanese 52 episodes, most were not dubbed...), there are fan-made collections that include otherwise lost episodes. I saw a lovely effort on YouTube to edit the English dub audio of A Baby Comes to Maple Town to a new, high quality Japanese raw video.

The person who was subtitling Maple Town to English only managed 17 episodes and the subtitles were... often inaccurate in places and seemed to be a dubtitle (they used some cynical jokes/gags that sounded more like the English dub or completely missed obvious/easy Japanese, so I think the person was subtitling based on either English dub scripts or a redub of the English dub), then, they gave up, due to harrassment, it seems, unfortunately.

I saw the English subtitles on animebee, but they're also up on 9anime[dot]gs and 9anime[dot]to

Note: the subtitles were originally made available without being attached to a video, whoever uploaded them to anime streaming websites mistakenly used the raw video/audio for episode 6 for both episode 5 and 6. So when you watch episode 5, you see the subtitles for episode 5, but the video/sound is episode 6. ^^;;;; Other than that, they're serviceable!

It's such a sweet, tender-hearted show and so beautifully animated. I hope someone continues subtitling the rest, especially all of the parts us dub-watchers never got to see! The language is actually fairly simple, too, for the most part!

Anybody watched the Maple Town anime?

Was there an episode where the characters had a fight cause they were designing a Merry-go-round ride and couldn't agree on what the seats should look like? I think I loved this show as a kid but I'm not sure if I'm not remembering wrong, all I can remember is a bunny girl character named Patty in a cute pink dress.

I look up the images for this show and the nostalgia doesn't quite hit, so I'm iffy it I'm not mixing it up with some other show. Maybe it was the Shin Maple Town Monogatari: Palm Town-hen spin off, as I remember a more city vibe than rural town.

If I could see that Merry-go-round episode I think my brain would stop looping back to it again and again. Does anybody know if it's even this show it's from, or even the name of the episode?

Oooohhh that's so nice!!!! I love it!

For the spots, if it's mold due to humidity maybe try to put some dry bicarbonate (baking soda?) on it in the sunlight? (I'm not sure if that work on old papers ^^')

Thrift finds!

Maple Town lunch box and thermos (anyone know if I can get the spots off the stickers?)

2+ hours of lost media that was rediscovered in 2023

Some of it is in bad taste

Some of it is...pronounced badly

@queenofsquids there is a Maple Town knock off at 1:22:56 called Cherry Town Monogatari

[neptunefairytales]

I have a friend who have some of them (they are called “San-nen nigumi no nakamatachi“ in japanese), they are very cute! (the sheep is absolutly adorable!) And unlike Sylvanians or Maple Towners they have bodies with gender features! XD

Pamplet for 3-2 Class Mates, a line of flocked toys from Takara similar to Sylvanian Families and Maple Town.

“Maple Town Monogatari” - January 19, 1986

[lolotheparagon]

I highly recommend the show, theres only 6 episodes in subtitles but its worth imo

Heres a link to pirate it

@jess-starwind Mind if I show you a major inspiration on Parfait and Florabelle?

These are Patty Rabbit and Rolley Cocker, the main characters from an obscure 80s anime called Maple Town: Palm Town. It never got an English dub (sadly) but seeing the 6 episodes I could find in subtitles, they have the most wonderful friendship. And even though they're not a couple, the way they interact and act very gay around each other is adorable.

Here's the theme song

In fact ive drawn Parfait and Flora as the characters
