Anime: Subbed or Dubbed?

**ViviMasterMage** · 09-15-2009, 04:17 PM

I watch my Anime with dubs.
I think they sound okay, especially in Full Metal Alchemist and Bleach.
Once you listen to the Original, It just doesn't feel right to me, so I stick with dubs.

I myself prefer to watch it subbed. The reason for this is because ALMOST always the original japanese voices sound much better then the shitty english dubbed voices. I find that to be the case anyways, but to each his own.

Subbed. If it is dubbed I wont even bother to watch it.

I prefer to first read the manga, then watch a couple of the subbed, then watch a couple of the dubbs. I love to get my own idea of the characters voice then see if the voice actors match it. Yeah, I have no life >>. I normally find that the Subbed better though...

Subbed, though there are exceptions. I think englished dubbed anime loses the emotions from a scene. The writing/translation from Funimation is awful too. Gotta get fan translations as they are better at getting the mood from scene's and finding the suitable words to convey the meaning/emotion(since a lot of japanese words can have double meanings in english).

Subbed most certainly. Dubs always give them voices that make you wanna find the two year old talking through said character and set landmines in their vicinity. Seriously, like the voices for Higurashi, the main dude went from suave japanese low octave guy to NAY-ROO-TOE HIGH PITCHED PREPUBESCENT GIRL oguhdogoo obuhgo

Even though i voted for Dub i dont really mind either way, however the anime i would never watch in japanese is Dragonball Z. I think eng dub is much better than japanese (but thats just my opinion)

I prefer to have subtitles and original voices, Having it dubbed just destroys the fun in reading, Besides... They sound so badass when talking japanesse.

So... Subtitles all the way!

I prefer subs and the original voices, but some dubs really aren't bad. Full Metal Alchemist has a pretty good dub I think, but I prefer to watch .Hack//Sign with subs. So it's a mix for me really, but mainly subs.

Subbed and original voices is where my vote lays, but if there was a I'm really jealous of the one person that voted "I understand Japanese" option I would take that.

I dont mind subbed anime
but i prefer dubbed
it just adds more drama to the anime
but thats just me

**Leonhart** · 05-28-2010, 12:26 AM

i prefer subbed only because when its humorous its funny and something is lost in the translation. but also i some older Anime's the dubbing isnt that great.

but id buy things that have been dubbed,

subbed if its jap it sounds propper
AND
its the evil english dubbed voices

I watch Anime with a mixture really. When I watch Lucky Star, I cannot stand the English dub, all the voices seem so off, and none of them fit the characters, so I have to watch it in Japanese with subs. With that being said, I started watching Death Note in Japanese with subs, but found it hard to catch up (good job I read the manga before hand) so I watch it in English. With most of the others, it really doesn't bother me what I watch it with.
