Well yes. Death Note has a pretty good Hungarian dub.
And also watched Perfect Blue in Hungarian, it was hilarious.
(+The obvious kids shows, like Yugioh and Pokémon, but those don't really count.)

I watched https://myanimelist.net/anime/2572/Fushigi_no_Kuni_no_Alice in French because I didn't know it was anime at the time. I'd never heard of it and just assumed it was a weird European cartoon. I just came across the French version on Youtube and was trying to better understand the spoken language so I watched some of the episodes. It wasn't until about a month ago I learned it was actually Japanese.

It's an acceptable question to call and start a conversation, I'm watching Chinese anime so far I'm getting it until it's not that bad, the characters even give clues to what is written on street signs, or menus of some restaurants, clothes that characters wear for a particular location, helps to identify the location faster,

During the time I was watching them via local TV stations. There were some I watched that were dubbed in Croatian, although I watched Serbian-dubbed anime mostly. Honestly, they've got a knack for dubbing. Most of the dubbers are legitimate actors (with a degree in acting, I mean).

Well, Spanish is my native language, so a lot of them actually, and now days I still watch those classics (Naruto, Bleach, YYH, NGE, etc) in spanish as well, I want to experiece them the same way my whole generation did.

I have watched anime in Latin-American Spanish (my native language), in Castillan Spanish (from Spain) and in Catalan (because the language is really similar to Spanish honestly).

I avoid english dubs at alll cost. Nevertheless, if certain anime recieved a good dub in my native language before the 2010s, I will give it a chance.

I have watched a good amount of anime in Latin American Spanish (Native language and that's how it was dubbed on TV).

I stopped watching them in the mid 2000's. The overall quality seemed to lower somewhat in those dubs, but recently we have begun getting some decent ones again, so I've started watching a few shows in Spanish dubs too.

Yes, I've watched anime in Arabic, Russian, Hindi, Hindi, Spanish, Dutch, German, Greek, Hungarian, Swedish, and French dub. I don't understand all these languages, it was just what the anime was available in and/or I was just curious to see anime in a different language. I mean, if I wasn't curious and I saw the only option to watch the anime was some random foreign dub I'd be like "fuck it, I'm watching something else".

Yes there is many good German dubs, far better than the English ones, and I used to watch them a lot. But now most of the time I'm just too lazy to search for them and then end up watching it in Japanese anyway.

German dubs are generally pretty good so I don't mind watching them. If there is one available I will at least check it out, but in the end I will watch whichever I like better.

As a german I watch often german dubs but I also like english and japanese dubs. Most of the time I watch the japanese dub and if I rewatch something it's in another language to get something new out of it.

Shaman king 2001 - (want to watch the sub, some day).

Code Geass - (just wondering if the 2010s movies have the same english voice actors as the dubbed TV series).

Black Lagoon - (I only watched "Roberta's Blood trail" in sub).

Speed Grapher - (it was good, I don't intend on watching it subbed).

Maboraho - (sounded a little cringey, but the show isn't good enough, to watch a second time, just for the sake of watching it in sub).

I'm probably missing a few others.

Every anime I have watched till the end of the 90s was dubbed in my language (which is bulgarian). For some reason the authorities here have decided that anime is for kids and every show for kinds should be dubbed, thus even adult anime was dubbed too (with VAs usually used for kids shows and playing those roles accordingly...which is pretty epic if you think about it).

In the 00s I have watched many anime on RTL2 with german dub including Detective Conan and Sailor Moon (thou watched several episodes of this in polish dub on Polsat 2)...and I have never studied german (or polish).

I did watch some in Greek, though à lot of them were based on the English dub dialogue and script, which did not improve the situation.

But the ones that were based on structured languages like German, French and Italian, were significantly better

Tons in my native language, practically zero in English. I'm not from the anglo regions so it doesn't make sense to watch a dub that's as foreign as the original is.

I thank God that I speak English and don't have to hear the sound of my native language any more than I already do irl. The only times I watched a dub other than English were in my childhood. I watched Pokemon and Spirited Away.

Since I grew up in a non-english speaking country, of course I have. Every anime I saw on TV was with german dub, for obvious reasons.
I probably regret this post by now.

A very good point. That is exactly the reason I never watch Chinese "anime" in Japanese.

Nope, never, I never really saw the appeal of it myself, mainly because it just feels...off, at least to me.
Just an avid anime watcher of 20 years, not much else I could say about myself (that I don't want to reveal, of course, just ask if you wanna know more!)

Naruto
Haruhi (S1)
Death Note
Bleach
Detective Conan
Dragonball

First 50-51 episodes of Naruto S1, Sonic X, Shaman King (og) and some random episodes of og Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh. I don't remember if something else was aired back than at tv with polish dubbing. So far that's all dubbings I've experience as I haven't watched anything in English dub (except for some short clips/comparrisons at youtube)
