| I'm not a native English speaker, but I don't really mind watching English dubs. Though, I mostly watch subtitled versions because I prefer Japanese voice acting a lot more to English voice acting. There certainly are exceptions (such as Death Note and Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo), but they are very few in numbers. |
| English is my second language but I kinda use it a bit more than my mother tongue (which shall not be revealed). I do watch English dubs before, but those times on anime are only counted by hand. |

| My native language is Spanish, but i've been bilingual since i was a kid. I was always used to consuming all kinds of English-language media, so yes, i am open to watching English-dubbed anime if they sound decent enough, though i primarily watch subs. I've never watched Spanish-dubbed anime, though, and i can't say i'd be interested in doing so. Throughout my life, i've had to watch many Spanish-audio Hollywood films around my family and i generally find them awful, so i can't imagine Spanish anime dubs would sound any better. |

| I speak both English and Spanish but at the end of the day I’ll never watch anime in anything besides Japanese, except for Cowboy Bebop because of Steve Blum. |
 |
| Mainly sub unless it's like Yu Yu Hakusho or Death Note. If I'm watching dub, it's cause I'm lazy to read subtitles or watching it with other people. |
 |
| No, subs all the way. English Dubs(few exceptions) and dubs in my mother tongue are trash. |

| I'm a Korean and I used to watch old animes in dub like Dragonball Z or Inuyasha when I was in middle school(since I used to study abroad). When I came back to Korea, I'm used to watching in all Korean dub, English dub, and Japanese subbed, but mainly I watch in Japanese subbed since I started learning Japanese. For Korean dub, I remember watching Naruto and One Piece through TV, but I switched to English dub to see recent ones, and now I watch them in subs. |
| Even if I'm alone, I'll go, even if I want to die. I can hear your voice, saying I shouldn't die. Even if it's difficult, even if I cry from loneliness I can feel warmth from deep inside my heart. Going round-and-round and flowing, time is ever-changing. I can't remember what happened anymore, but If I try and close my eyes, I can hear someone's laughing voice For some reason, now, that is My Most Precious Treasure. from Ichiban no Takaramono, by LiSA |
| I prefer to watch everything in its original language and only dubbed when I can't find the original subbed version. I also watch stuff with english subs when it comes to anime, they come out sooner than in spanish, and the subtitles are often better. |
| I used to watch anime in English dub because that's what Animax aired, I've also watched some in a local dub when I was small. My mother tongue is a very niche regional language so I doubt a dub even exists. I only watch anime in Japanese now. |
 |
| My whole life I've watched all tv-shows and movies (excluding Disney movies and some kids' shows) in their original language with subtitles (Because that is how they are shown on tv, and honestly, it would be weird to dub tv-shows other than little kids' cartoons), so why should I do any differently with anime? I'm also the type of person who adds English subtitles to games even if the characters already speak English. |
 |
| as a german, yes i do i really enjoyed the funanimation dub of Hetalia. and the DBZ dub is great to. |
| I watch Pokemon series in English dub. |
| English is not my main language. I tried to watch my first anime in English dub but I quickly change to Japanese sub because it sounded better to me. Plus, I immediately fell in love with Japan so I wanted to learn its language as well. |
 |
| No I do not, it doesn't make sense to me. First, if I have to watch in a foreign language anyway, why not in Japanese which is the original. Second, English dubs are notoriously bad compared to most other languages. I never understood how people could enjoy bad acting. |
 |
| I only watched ghost stories and dragon ball z in dub and I don't plan to watch more, I saw pokemon and samurai x in romanian, that was really good. Sub is they way to go this video here is the proof that eng dubs are to be avoided |

| No. Russian dubs are as abominable as English. And I don't even know which are worse. |
 |
| I speak 3 languages and still choose Japanese. |
| NO. Hollywood movies and other foreign movies are always shown with subs on television in my country. Only cartoons are dubbed, but not all the time. I got used to reading subtitles pretty quickly, in 2nd grade. I got used to subbtiles on that level where I could just listen to english audio, but instead I focus on subtitles. So, yeah, subs>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>dubs for me. As @inim pointed out it doesn't really make any sense to listen to a dub in another foreign language and I'm not used to english voice actors, like I'm to japanese ones. I would like to try to watch them in my mother tangue, but there are barely any, the ones that are don't interest me much. The only english dub I might try is Ghost Stories. |
| Nope. I'm French. English dubs just sound weird to me. I watched French dubs as a kid, then subs became available on VHS in the late 90s. |

Wait you mean your mother tongue is hindi right cuz urdu is in Pakistan (I'm from Pakistan) I'm a Muslim so my mother tongue is Urdu. |

| I did when I first found the medium but that was a big mistake, as soon as I got used to Japanese acting I started to refuse to watch dub. I don't watch Swedish dubs either, they are not on par with the Japanese version and are only made for kid shows that Swedish TV wanted to air. |
| Hell no I read english subs or korean subs. |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police 😫 |
| I'm not sure if I have seen anything with english dubs. I wanted to watch Cowboy Bebop with dubs, but somehow forgot. On the other hand, the last thing I watched at in Russian was Toradora. And I did not understand anything, so then I rewatched it with the subs |
| no, I don't. dubs suck shit. I was watching 00 back a year or two. there was a high ranking officer who was sick of the whole war thing. in japanese, he sounded like a patient man honed by age, tired of the same bullshit. the english dub was basically a budget solid snake trying to talk while taking a shit. in general whenever I hear japanese talk in anime, they sound fitting and honest. they talk and carry themselves the way you expect them to. when I hear dub actresses speak, they always try to sound as smug and over the top as possible. it robs the characters of their personalities, they don't even try to act like the original. it just reeks of the VA looking down on the audience, making light of their jobs. then there's the rewrites, mistranslations, having to fit the speech to the mouth movement, and inserting political bullshit that has nothing to do with the anime. I won't discuss these right now. tl:tr: japanese seiyuu: sounds nice, places the character before herself. she's acting. english VA: smug stacy voicing her disgust because she's stuck with weebs, no real acting involved. |
| 馬鹿げた倫理 全部ガラクタで |
| Yeah I am bulgarian and yes I occasionally watch english dub. I think about 10% to 15% of anime are better with eng dub. Finnaly no, I haven't watched anime dubbed in my native language since the 1990s. |
 |
| English is my second language and I always thought it sounded ridiculous. Of course I cringe whenever I accidentally start a dubbed anime. |
| No I don't. but then again for me English and Japanese are both foreign language I speak so I have no reason to watch it in something else than Japanese. |
 |
| I watch anime subbed in english like every normal human being. If I buy a DvD here I try to get french and english subs, to have a bit of choice in case the subs suck. |

Ah yes this exactly .. and whenever someone says subs are better there's a war in the comments . |
| No, unless it is the only available option, or Ghost Stories. |
 |
| There are some old OVAs I can't find in japanese so I watch them in english. Also some anime like garzey's wing and bible black that have top tier english versions. |
| MEA·MENTVLA·INGENS·EST |
| My mother tongue is Tamil as I'm from India, but my first language is English and I don't mind watching it in dub or sub. |
 |
| I like dubs cause it's easy to multitask when you don't have to constantly look at the same part of the screen, plus many dubs are amazing. When I started watching anime I've been only watching english dubs for about a year - so I think about 40% of all shows I watched were in dub. Turned to subs (english-only) later but I don't mind watching a good dub now too. As for native languages (ukrainian&russian) I never watch anime in those cause dubs in those suck hard |

| No, I always avoid dubbed anime like a plague whether it's English or my country's language. Eng Sub JP Dub, that's how mafia I work. |

| Normally no but there are some exceptions, anime that have a good reputation for it's dub or if an English dub just fits the world better. These are the ones I did watch with an English dub: - Afro Samurai / Movie / Resurrection - Black Lagoon / Second Barrage / Roberta's Blood Trail - Cowboy Bebop - Death Note - Dragonball / Z / GT - Ergo Proxy - Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV - Spirited Away - Steamboy - Trigun / Badlands Rumble - Wolf's Rain - Yu☆Gi☆Oh!
