I like how whenever there is a good dub... Good dubs, where? This thread is about anime that people prefer to listen to dubbed and if you read all the posts here it would be clear that being "good" isn't a requirement. "Oh well, the english voices just fit the setting in this anime! That's not an excuse. Actually this sort of statement gets used to support the claim that a dub is good. "I grew up with these voices!" This can be a reason why that person likes a particular dub. It however does not imply that a dub is good or bad. This would be you adding meaning where there is none. "This was one of my first dubs" Again, this is an explanation and a factual statement if the dub was one of their first. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| I prefer these over the japanese dubs. Doesn't mean the japanese dubs are bad just that I would prefer to watch it in english. Code Geass Great Teacher Onizuka Cowboy Bebop |
| Dragonball Z :P |

| I like DBZ, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo in English dub. A lot of other anime that are English dub is acceptable. I do watch subbed anime also. |
| I don't care for dubs, but what I do like are certain voice actors. My vote goes for Doug Erholtz for favorite American voice actor. I vastly prefer subs tbh. However people shouldn't dismiss dubs, since a lot of anima fans get into anime because of them. I appreciate the work dubs do but I've become so accustomed I'm hesitant to watch anything else. |
| Pretty much every anime i've seen, with one or two exceptions. |
| Goldenboy |
 |
| Eden of The East FMA Brotherhood Cowboy Bebop The Place Promised in Our Early Days Baccano! |
| I'd have to add Hetailia to the list of shows i prefer dubbed ... I actually wound up putting the second series on hold because the Japanese voices just weren't quite as funny. They may have been hideous stereotypes but they were funny ones, dammit. ^_^ |
| Chobits Trigun Summer Wars Cowboy Bebop DBZ Eden of the East Thats about it. Alot of people said Beck, but even though the English grammar is better, I still can't stand it cause some of the characters don't fit and the songs sound bad with the English vocalist to me. Sorry. |

| I am one of those people who can enjoy a dub or sub equally. I appreciate both. Sometimes I like a particular dub/sub over it's counterpart, but I'm not going to totally abandon one side of the media entirely. It's like eating a sandwich.. I'm going to eat it even if it doesn't have my favorite cheese this time.. it's still food and I'm still hungry. Who knows, I might end up enjoying that sandwich all the same. :) With that out of the way I'd like to answer the actual thread question with 'yes'. Cowboy Bebop |

Anime_Name said: Good dubs, where? This thread is about anime that people prefer to listen to dubbed and if you read all the posts here it would be clear that being "good" isn't a requirement. Okay fair enough. I should have said "Whenever there is a dub they enjoy". "Oh well, the english voices just fit the setting in this anime! That's not an excuse. Actually this sort of statement gets used to support the claim that a dub is good. What is says is "I like the dub because the actors are the right nationality for the setting; not because of any talent they may have." "I grew up with these voices!" This can be a reason why that person likes a particular dub. It however does not imply that a dub is good or bad. This would be you adding meaning where there is none. There was a post earlier that said "I like DBZ's dub only because I grew up with that dub" or something to that extent. Those were the type I was referring to. "This was one of my first dubs" Again, this is an explanation and a factual statement if the dub was one of their first. Again "I only like this dub because it was one of my first". If you like a dub performance, say you like the performance instead of using circumstantial "I only enjoyed it because..." excuses.. I'm not referring to you personally, but some posters. It's amazing how biased the anime community is against dubs. Even when they enjoy one they will nevertheless go out of there way to avoid genuinely complimenting it. |
| Dragon ball z gotta have that dubbed. Also like Kenichi the world strongest disciple cause the original voice makes him sound like a wuss more then he already is. yeah and Pokemon and Cowboy Bebop |
 |
| Well I grew up with the DBZ english voices, so I don't know how unbiased I can be about that, but I liked the english dubs for DeathNote and FMA. Code geass as well, but that one was kinda hit and miss. A lot of times other dubs are acceptable, but I prefer to watch in subs, because a lot of the mannerisms and jokes are lost in english, and the sentence structure transition is often awkward. |

| kanon 2006 dub > sub i find the voices in the english dub for kanon more natural sounding and less childish than the japanese dub. |
"everyone knows that the last toes are always the coldest to go." Telavators-the mars volta |
| Yu-Gi-Oh! Only heard the Jap voices a couple of times but just felt like they didn't fit the characters. |
| Going from the FMA dub to the subbed FMA: Brotherhood took some getting used to, doing it with Bleach was easier though. Im sure it has something to do with what you watch first... I cant really imagine rewatching some of the older dubbed animes I had seen with their original Japanese voices and vice versa. |
| Highschool of the Dead & The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. |
| Dont touch me I'm in despair. |
| Nope. |
| Slayers had a very good dub cast, especially Lina Inverse. Her voice was unique and fit the character so perfectly, it really impressed me. |
| Golden Boy just wouldn't be the same without the English dub. What a beast. Cowboy Bebop, yes. Rurouni Kenshin also had an excellent dub. Actually I can't stand the subs in that one which is quite strange but oh well. |
| What do you think you're piloting? Great Mazinger? Dangaioh? For Pete's sake, this isn't some robot cartoon whose main character is an autistic kid or some punk. - Kiichi Goto, Mobile Police Patlabor |
| The only dub I support is the second brazilian dub for Sailor Moon, because it was hilarious. I cracked up everytime Makoto opened her mouth. Kaleido Star's dub (brazilian, too) was actually quite decent... But I'll always prefer the original version. I don't know much about english dubs tho. All I know is that I saw the trailer for Madoka Magica's english dubbed version and Kyuubey sounded like my brother doing impressions of videogame characters. meh... |
| Of course! ALOT! x3 |
| Only for Bacanno and Hetalia. Otherwise, nothing else. The only reason I would ever watch dubbed is if the characters need accents(hence bacanno and hetalia). |
| Yugioh, Dragonball/Z, and Full Metal Alchemist. |
| Russian version of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Songs're especially good. |
| InuYasha is the only one out of those that I've watched. And it will stay that way - I don't even bother watching the dub versions any more. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| The only one where I can say I prefer the dub is FMA/Brotherhood. I also watched Trigun dubbed, but I don't really mind the sub for it. |
| Cowboy Bebop The Big O Darker than Black |
| Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing! Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds. |
| yeas but only for fma and a code geass |
| please make my breakfast every morning for me sweet cheeks! *bowling position" |
| While I do think some of the dubs are decent, I have always found the subs to be better whenever I had a chance to compare the two. |
 |
| Tanoshii Moomin Ikka Watched it only in dub and I've never seen any of it in the original voices. |

| I prefered the dub of Elfen Lied and some of Angel Beats. |

That's funny, cause I think MasakoX of TeamFourStar did a good job of that without making him sound like a toddler. I don't know who that is or why I should care. |
