We all have a preference to watch an anime either subbed or dubbed.. most saying the subbed is more true to the original intention of the artists. But I think we all also have an anime where we go against our standard response and watch the sub or dub instead of our typical choice. For example, I almost always watch subs. My exception is PaniPoni Dash! because I feel the dubbed version is well acted and hilarious. There must be people who always watched dubbed but realize the voice acting is terrible and thus watch subbed to actually enjoy the show, no? |
| Umm, no. |
 |
| Maybe Little Nemo as it's probably the only anime I've watched that I've only watched the dub of and I watched it when I was like 4. Other than that, no, not voluntarily. I did watch a few episodes of a short anime in English dub as I couldn't find the Japanese dub of those episodes anywhere. |
     Short of the day: Monotonous Purgatory(MAL) ✰Public Domain Club | One Piece Club✰ |
| I'll watch Panty and Stocking in English, that's for sure. Maybe Cowboy Bebop too, but that's about it I think. Almost all anime I've watched are subbed. |
 |
| Avatar cuz the original dub's in engrish. |
 |
| It varies series to series. I usually prefer dubs because I like listening to my own native language. I also tend to make a decision based on the people involved in voicing the characters and viewer's opinions on which route to go. The only dubs I really avoid are Neon Genesis Evangelion and Steins;Gate. Both are good but there were some issues in translation. |
 |
| I'm planning on watching Panty and Stocking, Cowboy Bebop, Black Lagoon and Ghost Stories in English, alongside with the Japanese dubs and I've watched all episodes of Baccano! in both Japanese and English That's it |

| Black Lagoon and Baccano! so far. I've seen an episode of Panty&Stocking in english and it was also amazing. |

| If the Japanese cast has no voice actors that I recognize and none that would be relevant today, then I will check out the English dub instead. So for example, I would watch Binan Koukou which had an entirely newbie main cast because they still starting out but for a new Ghibli film, I would rather watch the dub because they don't choose voice actors that star in normal anime. |
| I watched Vash the Stampede in English. I wouldn't be opposed to watching Steins;Gate or Spice & Wolf in English. TTGL might be okay iirc. Not anime, but I think the English voice acting in Mighty Number 9 is shaping up to be roughly on par with the Japanese voice acting (minus Dynatron and Dr. Sanda). That's all I can think of at the moment. |

| I only watch pokemon in dub because if i use sub they will use the japanese name for most pokemons... (ex : Charizard is Lizardon) and i found it's confusing.. |
Reality is the lifeblood that makes a work pulse with energy. Reality itself is entertainment  |
| I've tried a few english dubs and only Baccano didnt turn me off |

| Pokemon? Eh, not that I really watch the main series of Pokemon anymore, but I watched Pokemon: The Origin both dub/sub and it might be the only time ever I've preferred dub, because I'm so used to the English names. Hitokage? Nah bitch, that's Charmander. |
 |
| there's no exception for me. |
 |
silverwalls said: there's no exception for me. Maybe there should be..? |
| Mostly when I just want a break from the Japanese language or if I'd imagine the characters would probably be anglophones then I'll try a dub. |
 |

|
| I watch mostly sub but FMAB, cowboy bebop, baccano, hellsing and GITS SAC are my dub shows. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| I like how the one word reply brigade shares an affinity for dead-eyed avatars. |
| If the dub is really good like in Cowboy Bebop, Baccano etc. I'll watch it dubbed, otherwise I always stick to sub versions. It's also kinda lame to hear Johnny Yong Bosch or Crispin Freeman in every freaking anime so yeah. |

mayukachan said: Pokemon dubbed sounds better too. Like Dragon Ball Zs. This^ I can't get used to their voices being like that. So I watch dbz dubbed. |
 |
| I only watch dubs of my childhood anime. Namely Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters and of course Digimon. |
 |
| If a dub exists, I'll usually watch it. I only watch subs if an Anime has never been dubbed, or was heavily edited. |
 |
JD2411 said: What sub/dub rule? I didn't know it existed and I never watch dubs since they're all terrible. You realize your second statement is pretty much a self imposed rule, right? |
| I stick to subs all the time, only exception would be DBZ (because personally the dub for DBZ is better than the sub) and Steins;Gate (imo one of the few dubs that is good) |
 |
| space dandy is the only dub ive watched in years since it had top tier VAs but mostly cuz dub was available before the sub |
 |
aloricg said: I like how the one word reply brigade shares an affinity for dead-eyed avatars. What? your avatar has dead eye, ours don't.. |
|
| well... here are all the anime on my list i watched dubbed: haruhi - one of my first anime; it took me until the second season to realize i was watching it dubbed o_0 malice@doll - not many streaming sites have it, and it's just easier to find dubbed; angel beats ova - watched with my cousin; it was first result on google, and uploaded on youtube mouse - the media player defaulted to dubbed, and i just went along with it (ironically ofc) |
 |
| How 'bout no? I'd never had a dubbed anime. Exception when it broadcasted on the TV. I'd rather watch Spongebob when it is dubbed. And I tried watching a dubbed anime and honestly it gives a creep because I can't really understand an anime if there aren't subtitle. I am much relying type to that because most of the words they spoke are unknown to me. |
| Nah. I prefer subbed anime. |
| I'm pretty broad with my exceptions. I like both subbed and dubbed equally, though subbed is good more often than dub. Most dubs nowadays are solid at the least anyway. |
 Ahhh... Is this the blood... The blood of the Dark Soul? |
| I'll watch only Medabots and Digimon dubbed. I used to watch them when I was young in Hebrew, so it seems weird to me to watch it in Japanese. They feel completely different than any anime I discovered via the internet. |

| I don't have a rule. Preferably dub if one exists and it's not made by Sentai Filmworks but I can go either way. |
 |
| I almost always watch anime dubbed. The only time I watch subbed is when I really want to watch a show and it does not have any english dub. |
SeibaaHomu said: I don't have a rule. Preferably dub if one exists and it's not made by Sentai Filmworks but I can go either way. Yeah, fuck Sentai. I have heard one good dub from them, and it's Persona 4 the Animation, but they got (pretty much all) the Los Angeles VA's to come reprise their roles, so it's not really to their credit. I generally give a lot of dubs a chance, and there are times I like the casts so much I watch it in both languages. For example, despite the anime being sub-par, The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan has reunited the English cast, so I'm watching the anime both dubbed and subbed. Durarara!! x2 is another anime I watch in both languages; I got into the original because of its stellar English voice cast. Generally, sub is better. However, if the dub is good, I give it a try, always. Although, honestly, it just takes a lot of time. I typically need a great cast to force me to stay with the dub (e.g. Crispin Freeman). They're not bad, but many dubs fall short somewhere. |
| Sentai didn't make the Persona 4 dub. They outsourced it to LA. To be fair there are a few decent Sentai dubs but 90% of the stuff they put out isn't even close to being on par with what the other companies are putting out on a regular basis. So in general, I do avoid Sentai. I tried giving Kid's on The Slope a fair go recently because a few people said the dub was good but as soon as I heard sans, chans and awkward line deliveries in a dub of a Watanabe series I knew something was wrong. Well, at least the Japanese voice acting is good. |
