Maple Town '16

Maple Town '16 (marketed on DVD releases as Maple Town Stories: The First Continuation) is a Japanese anime series created for Disney Channel Japan. The series began airing on October 15th, 2016, with Disney XD (via Jetix Cymru) acquiring the license for the series in the US after Nicktoons passed the series on to pick up the show's sister series Maple Town: Another Story.
On February 26th, 2017, the anime ended its Japanese run and a sequel anime premiered on Disney Channel Japan.
==Development==
In 2016, Disney Channel announced Maple Town '16 and Maple Town: Another Story.
Although Jetix Cymru originally intended for both series to be aired in the United States on Nicktoons and Vortexx Network, respectively, the licensor gave Disney XD the broadcast rights to Maple Town '16 when Nicktoons passed the series on and acquired the broadcast rights to Another Story from Vortexx Network.
In March 2016, Jetix Cymru announced that the dub would have a 2010s-esque atmosphere, along with power pop being the main music genre used for both series' English dubs. These changes were eventually fixed when NickFamily DVD Distribution released all three Seikunime-overseen Maple Town anime on DVD, using an uncut dub which restores the original music from the Japanese version.

==Trivia==
*The US broadcast of the dub featured several changes to the anime that are not present in the anime's uncut DVD release by NickFamily DVD Distribution:
**In the broadcast version, power pop was the main music style. This was fixed in the uncut release by NickFamily DVD Distribution, which restores the original Japanese score.
**In the Region 2 DVD version and international broadcasts/home media releases, japanese rock is heard in episode 11. The Disney Channel Japan broadcast cut the scene in question.
*The dub was originally supposed to air on Nicktoons, but Nicktoons passed it on, allowing Disney XD to pick up the series.
