Catalonia

Anime

The 3XL logo.

Catalonia has broadcasted more episodes than any other languages in the Iberian Peninsula. At present, it has dubbed 516 episodes in Catalan on the popular teen channel K3, 3XL and Super3 (later called SX3), whereas in Spanish there are only 263. All the openings and endings are dubbed into the language until the 12th opening, moment since the theme songs were kept in Japanese with Catalan subtitles. The insert song "Family" was also not dubbed.
