Best dub performance?
| It aint no surprise that sometimes English VAs outdo their Japanese counterpart. Who did it the best though? I personally cant see anyone voicing Lelouch other than Johnny Bosch, anytime I try to watch Code Geass subbed it just feels like something is missing there with Lelouch |
| there needs to be an other option, personally i think it's keichirou from gakkou no kaiden. his best line was "AHFUIAHEFIUAHFUIGUIRGHS" |
| Other: Inuyasha - Richard Ian Cox [InuYasha]. |

| The guy from Code Geass. I'm pretty sure he did other ones I quite liked too. There's also the Cowboy Bebop one but I've never watched Bebop in dub. Apparently he is better than the Japanese tho soooooooo... |

| Out of these Erica Mendez has my vote. But not gonna lie but Ian Sinclair as Kaguya-Sama's narrator is beautiful. Also Austin Tindle and Jad Saxton in anything they are in |

| Princess Principal is the peak of English dubbing, so I'd like to propose putting basically the entire cast above these. |
| Billy Kametz as Josuke from Part 4. Jamieson Price as the Count of Monte Cristo. |
 |
| Light Yagami - Brad Swaile [Death Note] (your vote) |
 |
| nothing beats harlock VA, maybe ghost stories but still |
    |
| None of those. Objectively the best English dub was done by Ian Sinclair as Dandy in Space Dandy, the absolute GOAT even performed and dubbed the song: |

This bullshit was done to the death already. You literally have a signature dising dubs, and you call others a troll. Come on. |

You consider it bait because your personal opinion disagrees with his statement… But he’s actually right and majority of the people agree that english dubs can be done better than japanese |

| No one, they were all bad, as subs are |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
all i could hear was itachi plus how could u not watch haruhi subbed for haruhi's VA thats a sin |
I have that "I think it was a woman." clip in my favorite videos playlist lol. |

It's idiotic to even compare dubs with original, because all dubs are like a completely different products that have nothing to do with original creators and directors. And btw, you meant majority of dub lovers. Different creative vision doesn’t mean lower quality execution, those two are not connected in any sort of way so your statement is completely pointless. And btw, you meant majority of dub lovers. No, I mean the majority of a given example. For instance, Cowboy Bebop, the general majority agrees that the dub is better therefore my original statement is true. One example proves my point, but there are countless others like Space Dandy, Redline, Black Lagoon, Ghost Stories, etc. but they are not needed to prove my point. |

| can mods just delete all the sub vs dub posts? this isnt a place to cry about dub being bad |
| Spike Spiegel - Steven Blum [Cowboy Bebop] (your vote) I didn't like the anime itself that much but the dub was really good IMO. |
| I think Christian Bale did a beautiful job as Howl, I saw a clip comparing the dubbed versions and I really liked the eng dubbed version more than that of japanese. |
| For me, it will always be Crispin Freeman in The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya. This scene in particular: |
 This ground is soiled by those before me and their lies. I dare not look up for on me I feel their eyes |

| Steve Blum gets my vote for Spike Spiegel, but Johnny Yong Bosch as Vash the Stampede is also sublime. |
| Out of these, it's a tie between Spike and Light. |
"Molly Ringwald" out right now - check my Linktree!  |
| where's edward elric? smh. imo the best dub overall |
 |
| I gotta give props to all of the above. But if i would have to choose, all might's voice actor imo ? |

I think hes my biggest fan haha, I declined his friend request a few months back and i think hes still mad about that |
| Enoshima Junko maybe, I'm just not a fan of dubs |

Holy cow, you're so fucking insecure that I'm starting to feel sorry for you. First of all, I didn't send any friend request for years to anybody. But thanks for confirming me yet again the truth about dub lovers. i literally got the email bruh, sorry for exposing you |
| I would like to nominate Kari Wahlgren as Haruko in FLCL. She sounds exactly like her Japanese counterpart and brings a lot of personality and high energy to her performance. Doubly impressive given that it was her first VA role. |
-insert NGE meme here- |
| Other: Crispin Freeman as Alucard from Hellsing. |
| Solid choices, you covered most of my favourites. Let me list a few others I love - AdamJensen80 said: Travis Willingham - Roy Mustang, Ginko (take your pick)Crispin Freeman as Alucard Mary Elizabeth McGlynn - Motoko Kusanagi Matt Mercer - Kiritsugu Emiya NorthmostIsle said: Kari Wahlgren as Haruko in FLCL Doubly impressive given that it was her first VA role. That was her first VA role!? Goddamn. It's funny how she also voiced Saber - Haruko and Saber could not be more diametrically opposed as characters. |
| I have a personal bias towards Liam O'Brien as Lloyd from Code Geass. As for the poll options, I can't decide between Lelouch or Erwin. |
Some of you never watched Bakugan Battle Brawlers on TeleToon in 2008 and it shows. |
