lol... i hate dub, it sounds so...........fake.. dub is the reason for all fail in life (jk :P).. only dub i think is ok is the dub of FMA, it was kinda descent.. anyway, dub means cutting/sensuring half the show... so SUBS ALL THE WAY (since i dont understand japanese 2 well yet =o)

I said doesn't matter only because there's some anime I like to watch in only english and then other anime I like to watch in only japanese.

subtitles tend to be more accurate than dubbed performances, so I like subbed.

Hmm... dub or sub...

I can understand both. It really depends on what you watch first. If you've seen an entire show in subs, then if you see the dub you're going to think it's bad no matter what. If you've seen the dub, you might not like the subs either (although I've found that's quite rare).

Personally, I like sub better for the most part, but not by a lot. FMA is one show where I prefer the dub just because it's so outstandinly good. Other shows, like Suzumiya Haruhi or AIR, the dub is good enough so that I can enjoy it, but certian voices bug me a bit, so I still like the sub better overall.

But both are good ~ !

I like subs better, but I have noticed one or two movies or anime that I ended up liking the dub version better. Tons better. The dubs made them sooooo much funnier. Probably just because I can't understand the humor in japanese or unintentional type of hilarity.

I would have to say sub.


Dubbed versions of anime are filled with bad voice acting.

Very monotonus if you ask me.

Every dubbed anime pretty much is crap since they have bad voice actors.


Except for Full Metal Alchemist and Samurai Champloo.


Good voice actors since they just rock^^.

But subbed anime is best for me.

i love subs. i, like half of this site, am teaching myself japanese so it helps a lot. i dont mind dubs but if i can choos i would go for japanese audio and english subs. with some dubs you can loose things in translation or things dont fit or whatever. i just love the japanese language, i like to listen to it even if i dont undestand it.
