dub or sub

[kMal]

Oh dear lord please SUB! Dubs sound cheesy and fake.

subs for the most part but dubs for a few like full metal panic, death note , E's otherwise , Tenchi , and others.

Sub because you can actually feel the emotion, dub sounds so fake and they all sound the same in whatever anime I watch... except cowboy bebop which I think was beautifully dubbed

That is most likely because there aren't a lot of different American voice actors.

I watch both. Just depends on the anime and the actors used.

Sub is the best...

Why should one have to go through the trouble of many years of hard language study just to enjoy entertainment in that language? Sure, if one has the time, patience, resources (money?) and a deep interest, "learning the freakin" language might not sound that bad.....but subs and dubs exist for a reason

(yea, that sounded a bit mini-rantish - my bad)

Personally, it depends on which voice acting is better for me to judge one over the other. Most here are saying "ZOMG AMERICAN VA'S SOUND FEIIIIKE!!!", but the truth is that I've been able to sense tons more emotion in more American VA's then I have in Japanese VA's (this goes for works other then anime, btw).

I've seen anime/shows that sound good subbed but not dubbed, as well as dubbed but not subbed. It would be very biased and stupid for me to pick one over the other -_-;
