Anime: Subbed or Dubbed?

[Tazeki]

Don't. Flame. Anyone. Please.

Did the thread die?

subbed, but i watched lelouch of the rebellion dubbed it was pretty good.

[Evo]

I don't know how the anime people talk Japanese if they always dub (:

[Yozh]

Probably subbed.

[😼Studio Cat😼]

Varies. Lately just Dub, Eyes are fracked, Squinting slows my reading speed.

Subbed... unless some "kiddy" anime like Yu-Gi-Oh where Dubs sound better :P

[Exiled Alchemist]

Personally it's situational, and very dependent on the company that is making the dub version. It is also heavily depended on voice actors as well. I do still watch more subs over dub, but I still go back to some of the best dubs that are around. Cowboy Bebop, Death Note, and Fullmetal Alchemist are just a small list of animes that had really well done dubs. I remember reading that the english voice actor for Kira/Light worked extreamly hard to bring the best performance that he could. He strived to rival the original voice actors performance every step of the way.

Both. Watch a series once with sub, then watch it again with the dub - and vice versa.

Subbed, there are very few shows that are better dubbed.

I watch subbed for most thing. Cause I watch stuff like when it comes out on the Crunchyroller, but I find myself watching dubbed either because it's good or to make fun of how bad it is. Also there is lot's of older anime I've nticed the subs aren't the greatest. But I still think subbed is they way to go. Who said I don't read.

Dubbed!

Dubbed, dubbed, dubbed, all the ****ing way dubbed.

Nothing worse than watching a subbed anime. You miss out on most of the awesome animation because you are too busy reading what's happening.

I was FINALLY able to start watching Attack on Titan dubbed, and it is a BILLION times better. I keep seeing stuff I missed the first TWO times I watched the subbed version.


So many anime shows I want to watch on Netflix, but I won't bother yet because they're all subbed.

To be fair though, some dubs can be quite awful compared to Japanese VA.

But then there are dubs like this which are miles better than original:

The Ghost Stories dub is truly legendary

[Solid_Ryuk]

Usually a mix of both. Shows like Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, and Death Note sound good dubbed. A show like JoJo though sounds beautiful in both forms.
