page 1 of 1

wondering if any one here finds it easier to watch anime with subtitles or english dubbed?
me personally i like hearing it in english but i prefer it with subtitles just wanted to hear you guys opinion on that

Subjectively I would say that people getting into anime would prefer to watch dubbed version rather than subbed. After all, it is easier to listen straight English rather than try to read the subtitled text.

Myself I would prefer sub only because I like to hear the original Japanese voice actors rather than dubbed English.

Quote by JinzhouThis is the infamous "Sub vs. Dub war" that will never end. On every anime community there is this argument. And we've had it on MT multiple times before.

It's not about which is better: it's about preference.

there have already been numerous threads on this topic... please remember to search before creating new threads.

I Agree

I prefer to watch the anime in Japanese and read english subtitles. I have watched some anime with has been dubed and is just sounds wrong. I can't say why but it does.

It's better 2 watch the original dubbed version bcoz the dubbers are in full act..
english dubbers are sometimes boring and no emotion at all AND THUS ruining a great anime>>>

i probably should'nt reply on my own thread but i need to clear this up THIS IS NOT A versus thread OR which IS better i want to find out from the people who watch anime which they find easier to handle thats all[THANXX to all who posted and all who might post]

I think it is easier to have it dubbed since you can multitask if it's dubbed. :)

Most of the time, I'll try to have it English dubbed and subtitled at the same time. I like to hear the choices of English voice acting they did as well as see how they translated it. So, both is fine with me, but I think I would probably prefer English dubbed more.

lol!! Just what I stated... the original is better... ! :)

I'd say its easier if the anime is subed. I read fast, and my ears arent devastated due to the horrible eng dub so i can enjoy the anime^^. The only anime that had decent dubs was Cowboy Bebop, and the Cowboy Bebop movie. Other than that, i cant think of one.

I think it's easier to watch subbed anime, since sometimes, you may not catch what the voice actor/actress said. :)

I have no problem reading the subs and i like to watch anime in Japanese. BUT! I like even more when i DONT have to read so that i can concentrate on the anime itself . Conclusion: I like dubbed better. note: I would never watch Bleach dubbed! Thank you.

I don't think that it's this much of a problem to read subtitles....
So I definitely prefer subs over dubs.. because I want to hear the original voices.. noone but the japanese have such a voice variety... at least that's what it seems to me..

I find the english dub of Naruto just terrible to listen to...the actor's voices are crap (just my opinion), but for love hina I liked the english version. It really depends.

it really depends on ur ability. If your blind go for dubbed. If you're deaf go subbed.

subs...

Other than the english audio, dubs is the easier of the two for me to handle. ( I can't handle cheesy eng dubs) With dubs I wouldn't miss alot little details since I wouldn't have to glance down to read the subtitles. Though the dub is easier, I watch 95% of my anime subtitled. It doesn't take much effort for me read the subs while at the same time watching the scenes.

Reading subtitles and watching whats goin' on is kinda' a pain. Esspecially if you have add...

well, i think that somtimes the dubbed ones don't catch the real japanese meaning, while the subbed ones catch the meaning better. but i always prefer dubbed better cause for some reason, its like you get the emotion straight to you, not like subbed, you havce to read and then the feeling just kinda fades.

it's better if it is subtitled and English language in Japanese animation sounds pretty wrong.

im used to both, so it doesnt matter if it is subbed or dubbed, watched enough subbed stuff to get used to it, plus it helps beeing a fast reader XD

I find it easier to watch with english-dubbed but nonetheless i prefer the jap-dubbed more^^

its easier with dubbed english, but it doesnt is as good as to see an anime with subs ^^
the original seiyus are soo much better ! i prefer subs, its a bit harder to watch , but not that hard o.o
