Today, we have just a short update. To all of you out there, I am sorry that there's been no update last week. I have hit a snag.
The episode summaries and the gathering of screenshots is more work than I expected. There will be some delays but there will be updates on Sundays...when I get to them. Personally speaking, maintaining a blog on a regular schedule is tricky. I may slip with updates but I will try at least to update this blog on a regular basis.
In addition to episodes summaries of Maple Town, I did plan to comment too on Palm Town, the voice actors and some of the merchandise of the Maple Town franchise.
One final note - I am still attempting to contact Rebecca Forstadt, the voice of Patty Rabbit, and may have succeeded. I'll post again in the future about that.
That's it for today. Stay tuned!
An overview & analysis of the 1980s anime series, Maple Town, and its sequel Palm Town.

Maple Town Needs Your Help
This is a short blog post this week. I'll have more episode commentaries and related blog posts next week. But there is something I want to remind everyone.
The purpose of this blog is to document Maple Town and its sequel Palm Town for future generations. In spite of all my research, there is only so much I can do or can uncover.
If you have any useful information about Maple Town - be it the English dub, any of the foreign dubs or the original Japanese - or if you are connected to the show in any way - working on the original or the dubs, involved in selling the show, voice acting, etc - feel free to comment on the blog or email me at mapletown(at)gmx(dot)com.
I can't do this alone. I need help. Any more information would be appreciated.
That's it for now.
Be sure to check out my blog about my comics series Sunnyville Stories and my webcomic Tiffany & Corey. If you like this blog, be sure to buy me a Ko-Fi.

Maple Town Episode 2 Commentary
Now without further ado, let's move onto the next episode of Maple Town!
Maple Town Episode 2
English Dub Title: The Stolen Necklace
Japanese Title: "Nerawareta kubikazari" (ねらわれた首飾り)
Spanish Dub Title: El Robo Del Collar
This episode continues to build up on the previous episode as it introduces many of the children of Maple Town; in the first episode, we met Patty Rabbit and her family along with Bobby Bear. More characters get introduced, namely because this episode deals with Patty's first day in Maple Town's school.
The episode opens with Patty Rabbit waking up in her new home and being excited because it's the first day of school. I'm not sure whether this episode takes place the day after the first episode or a few days after as the English dub never says. Anyway in her excitement, Patty rushes to wake up her sister Rachel, who's upset about being awakened since it's still too early. Patty rushes downstairs to the kitchen where her mother and little brother Ricky are. We learn it's so early that Mrs. Rabbit hasn't even started breakfast yet.
