Cowboy Bebop
Hellsing
Blue Sub #6

I would second Cowboy Bebop, its one I prefer to watch the dub in than see the sub, which is quite surprising for me because I really try to avoid dubs when I can

Azumanga Daioh (the dubbed version is just funnier than the sub)

Long live the Japanese Original Releases.

Personally believe Dubs are just the poor man's anime.

Most dubs get two thumbs down from me...

Curiosity then bids me ask:

How do you respond to titles like Blood: The Last Vampire or Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, wherein the first release was done in English with an optional Japanese track added afterwards?

I found the Escaflowne movie dub to be far more engaging then the sub. I watched it subbed twice (once fansubbed, then the US DVD) but the third time I tried the dub and it just felt a lot more epic and appropriate. Might be a slight bias towards those VAs, but I stand by my opinion regardless.
