I only watch subs if:

The anime hasn't been licensed by America.
If i am forced to watch it at a convention showing -_- < h8 that one.

dubs is just so much more easy.

I say subbed is better, there are some good dubbed but subbed wins

Bad voice acting is the number one reason subbed wins them Japaneseses
are good at it... Americans not so much
Example: Tomoyo the valley girl (Card captor sakura ppl u know what I'm talking about) :roll:
Pick any naruto character. Dubbed ruined naruto (60% of ppl that don't like naruto will tell you its because they cant stand the voice actors)
American voice actors have horrible pronunciation they dont seem to have much dedication =/
the Japanese on the other hand...

LOOK AT THAT DEDICATION!!! LOOK AT IT!!! ITS SO AWESOME ITS DISGUSTING :shock:
Killing you only reduces the number of idiots

I personally loved subbed anime. It's just kind of natural I guess, because thats what the creators wanted the characters to sound like.
For example Naruto in Japanese with his catch phrase was more cool sounding and less annoying then the completely annoying english version.
I still get chills down my back when i remember my first and last dubbed version of naruto. I never saw the dubbed version again.


There are some dubbed anime that I can stand but i generally lean toward subbed : D

I speak Japanese, and take it from me, Naruto is annoying no matter what language he's in.

Doesn't really matter, you can choose what you prefer. It only becomes an issue when you are watching with other people. There is no correct answer to the question, so stop asking it.
