Seeing I live in Holland, and if we get anime (almost never ) on TV it is dubbed in Dutch. We had I believe Gundam wing and Dbz here, but I wouldn't say yeah to the dubs not after I heard the Japanese versions.

I dont watch dubs anymore so I dont think I could make a top 5 list. However I think the dubs were pretty good for both Full Metal Panic and School Rumble.

I really like Air's dub, that would be my favorite dub. Misuzu's voice isn't an annoying attempt to pass as cute, and Yukito is voiced by that Vic fool <3

Haruhi Suzumiya's was great, and Samurai Champloo is definately up on my top 5. Code Geass is a dubbed anime I don't mind at all, and I don't know about you all but Lucky Star in dub to me was 10x funnier, because I hardly laughed in the Japanese one at all.

If I have to discuss to keep this thread alive, I would have to say Rurouni Kenshin, cuz the voices just fit perfectly for all of the characters.

After that, I'd go with Cowboy Bebop, Spike's english voice=WIN.

FMA, Ghibli movies and Steam Boy were the only ones for me. Also, it'd be weird for me to watch Digimon, Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! in Japanese because I'm so use to seeing the DUBS on TV, so those too.

Here's the top 3 list:
1. FMA
2. Ghibli movies
3. Steam Boy

I've only seen episodes 1-2 of FLCL dub, is it worth to continue watching?

Also, R.O.D. the TV, it is an ok dub? Cuz if it isn't, I won't watch it.

8.) Actually, they changed the voice actors right before Battle Frontier.
9.) Have you seen Series/Seasons 4 & 5 yet?

Steam Boy is in England or a country similar to England and it has the accent.
The movies itself wasn't the best, but the dubs were super good.

4. No, unfortunately I haven't. I've only seen up to 51 of the dub that was shown on Adult Swim and I bought one of the DVD's that had 59-61 on it. I was extremely upset when Adult Swim stopped showing it.
7. Yeah, me too. Waited like 2 years just to have them drop it completely. Don't they think the fans are going to wonder "WTF?!"
8. Oh yeah, your right. ^^*
9. I tried to watch season 4 but I just didn't like the whole character digivolving into a digimon instead of actually getting a digimon thing. As for Season 5, I haven't seen it but I plan to sometime soon since it doesn't seem to be like Season 4.

4.) There are 4 Season Box Sets of Case Closed out at the moment, covering episodes 1-105.
7.) Most of the fans are kids, so they think no one will notice or remember.
8.) Of course :P.
9.) I actually didn't really mind Season 4, but it was disappointing that there were no digimon partners.

As for Series/Season 5, Digimon Savers (aka Digimon Data Squad) is a lil cliche, I only watched it cuz it was Digimon.

01. Cowboy Bebop - I remember once I popped in one of the DVDs and selected Japanese track by accident. I have a habit of defaulting to that for most series but I can't do that for Bebop. The second I heard the Japanese VAs I had to immediately change it back. The entire cast did an awesome job on this dub.

02. Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex - While I can watch the series either subbed or dubbed, I prefer the dub by far. This is another show where every voice fits just right and makes english the first choice when watching.

03. Beck - Another amazing dub which is more impressive considering some of the VAs had to actually sing.

Other than some Ghibli works like Princess Mononoke, nothing else comes to mind to list.

...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work.
