| its only bad when they fuck up with the japanese jokes |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| Yes.... It's not suitable for the character. I don't know why. |
| Not really. |
| yes |
 |
| They have limited number of VAs maybe? Some people enjoy dubs too. I personally enjoy eng dubs of my childhood anime like Pokemon and Digimon. |
 |
| no but i deliberately avoid dubs so im not sure how they even sound like |
 |
| You're just making stupid points. How do Japanese voice have a "unique way to talk" and yet English voice actors don't? |
 |
| It's more noticeable with the female English VAs. Their voices sound very annoying to me. |
| Mostly, there are some good ones. |
| No. I give credits to the well-performed anime. Watch Baccano. |
| No way to recall What it was that you had said to me Like I care at all But it was so loud And you sure could yell You took a stand on every little thing And it was so loud |
| It's not that their voices are awful, it's just...somehow it doesn't really fit. I never watch dubbed anime, because it just seems fake in some way. |

 |
| Only when they're bad. 99% of the time I stick to Japanese but Vic Mignogna is an infinitely better Edward Elric than Paku Romi. I also have a soft spot for Liam O'Brien (Vincent in Ergo Proxy) and Johnny Yong Bosch (Lelouch) as well. For some reason, however, most voice actresses just can't match up with their seiyuu counterparts. |
 |
| yes, 99% of them are awful. Watch black butler for good dub done right http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=294747&show=0 |
 |
| I don't think the english voice actors are awful, it just feels like most of the time the VA choosen doesn't quite fit the character. |
 |
| The only anime that i watch in dub was pokemon.. and i think the english V.A is doing pretty great job in that anime.. |
Reality is the lifeblood that makes a work pulse with energy. Reality itself is entertainment  |
| No. Some anime have English dubs that are equal to or even better than the subs. See : Ghibli movies, Cowboy Bebop, Bleach, Baccano!, Gurren Lagann, Code Geass and so on. IMO. |
Where the fuck did Monday go? |
small44 said: You sound like an incredibly intelligent person with a far greater understanding of both English and Japanese than I have. I respectfully disagree, but you are obviously far more 'in the know' than I am.Do you think english voice actor are awful? For me yes i hate the tone of actor voice and in addition to that all characters speak in the same way unlike in Japanese voice each character has his unique way to talk offmodel said: Sentai have cut down to one show a month (Not really a loss, their stuff is awful) but Funimation are dubbing, like, 90% of what they pick up every season with the new broadcast dubs thing. And fortunately with only a few exceptions (Those exceptions not being from my own experience but from other people's accounts) there hasn't really been any loss in quality.The thing is, less dubs are being done now Even a few niche titles like Yuri Kuma Arashi are getting dubs within weeks of their first episode (Which I'm EXTREMELY thankful for, especially seeing as it's the only Ikuhara series with a decent dub). |

| No, because Funimation Studios, Bang Zoom, NYAV Post, New Generation Pictures exist. Yes, because other ADR companies exist that are not them. |

| Are you talking in general? if so, no. There is a lot of games, where I think the English voices are better than the Japanese counterparts. Disney/Pixar animation, stuff like the Boondocks etc. In anime? most definitely |

Voice actor is not a thing you can really compare it's just depend on taste it's not like numbers for exemple that you can easily compare. |

| Not all of them. For the most revered dubs like Cowboy Bebop's, Baccano's and a few others, the voice actors are as good or maybe even superior to the Japanese VAs but most of the time, they're probably not. |

I start the thread just to know people opinions that's all Dude, you should know by now, that this is basically the Sub VS Dub debate all over again, right? People who watch subs will say yes to your question and people who watch dubs will say no or sometimes. But it's like you said, everyone has a right to have an opinion. |
|
| Not really awful but most of the time inferior to sub and almost always there is 1 character or 2 that are extremely annoing sounding. There are exseptions to this rule. They often cant seem to kick that emotion and reaction level. |

| I acknowledge that almost all subs are better than dubs. That being said, I watch dub from time to time for a couple reasons. One, I like watching shows that aren't set in Japan dubbed because it just feels better a lot of the time. Stuff like E7, Planetes, etc. Second, it's a lot more relatable hearing someone in your native language than reading subtitles (of course the argument there is LEARN JAPANESE, and I'd do that at some point, but for right now fuck that). Third, just because the dub isn't as good doesn't mean it isn't still good. Fourth reason is motherfucking Ghost Stories. Fifth is motherfucking Greg Ayres. I don't care what you all say, he is a god. |
| The dub voice actors need to be held accountable when they ruin and subsequently don't do their jobs, they need be thrown in jail or fined for fraud, this isn't some little " oh I did this scene wrong hahaha" they're ruining franchises and costing companies millions of dollars with their sht acting. |

| I really don't care, some bds I have have a good quality dub. |
 |
| I don't think so. Smooched said: It's more noticeable with the female English VAs. Their voices sound very annoying to me. I feel that way about some Japanese female voices. Too high pitched for me. The guys are okay. Outb4hate. |
