Amen to that, besides dubs just ruin the overall atmosphere of an anime. There are some who say the same about subs, it's still in jap no? If my jap wasn't terribly bad, I'd be watching raws

I'll sum it up by saying: I watch and enjoy both dubbed and original audio on every single anime I watch.
I despise arrogant, self-righteous weeaboo anti-dub activists.
What language do you think the subtitles are in? That's right, English. Therefore, it is a translation, and therefore, it is subject to exactly the same accusations you so casually hurl in the direction of perfectly adequate dubs.

People who make statements about "all dubs are crap" (in spite of the fact they never watch dubs and therefore have no right whatsoever to say such a thing) are simply beneath contempt, and are not worth the pixels their worthless posts take up on my monitor.

That is all.

EDIT: It's fine to prefer one or the other, I have no problem with that.
It's the attitude of certain anti-dub elements that bugs me, not the principle.
In most cases these are the same idiots who refuse to read manga with translated sound effects in them, and will always call characters by the Japanese pronunciation of their names - even if the characters do not HAVE Japanese names.
FUCKING. SIGNED.

It annoys me to no end when so called fans bitch and moan and whine and fart over something as petty as this.

Re: i'm anti Dub now

I prefer the original audio. I feel the real emotions of the voice actors ^^

Re: i'm anti Dub now

Well, I just got FLCL, which up till now, I'd only heard in English. So, I decided to try the Japanese track.

It was terrible. The voice actors just seemed to read the lines with no inflection or feeling at all.

Maybe, in this case, the Japanese track was actually the dub.

Re: i'm anti Dub now

Technically speaking, both the English and Japanese tracks are called dubs.

I would have to agree with you there. When you watch a dub of a show you usually lose most of the emotions from the characters.

Re: i'm anti Dub now

Well, as Sueiza points out, all sound in anime is dubbed. The key thing is how good a job the people who dubbed the tracks did. In many cases, the English dub is done at a later time and produced by different people than the original dub. The quality of the result depends on how good each group does.

What I notice sometimes is that the English dub is "Americanized." That is, the team doing the English dub tries to make the anime more attractive to the US/Canadian market.

Maybe that sells more anime, but I feel it reduces the quality of the result.

On the other hand, when the English dub is produced by the same group as the Japanese, as in Cowboy Bebop, the original story comes through.

I just can't figure what the heck happened with FLCL. That is really weird!

Maybe what I was listening to was a commentary track.
