99% of the time when a dub is better, it's because the dialogue is better. DBZ is the only anime I've ever enjoyed the dub more than a sub purely because of the voice. I watched DBZ on Cartoon Network as a kid, it was always dubbed and I got so accustomed to how everyone sounded that when I first heard Goku's voice (some of the others bothered me slightly, some I preferred subbed. Goku was just the big one for me), where he sounds like an insanely overexcited 15 yr old girl, that I honestly thought it was a fucking joke. Just one of those things that rubs me the wrong way and most likely because I watched DBZ dubbed for 10 years before I even bothered watching anything subbed, which was one of the movies, can't even remember which one.
I usually enjoy the Japanese voice actors more (with a few exceptions). I just hate how bad the writing is on some subbed anime compared to the dubbed. Watch FMA Brotherhood or Deathnote with the subs on (not CC, with the actual subs) while listening to it in English. It blows my bad how much better the dialogue is, how it flows, sentence structure, use of vocab etc... just everything. Once again, not the case for all anime, or even for most. I just don't think anyone should say Sub > Dub or Dub > Sub. Some shows are slightly better one way over the other, some are vastly superior one way or the other, and sometimes it's such a non-factor that it amazes me lol.
Probably my biggest beef with a few subbed shows was the casting choices for the super bad mother fucker. I hate when you've got this guy who's just the epitome of fucking shit up and then they end up sounding weak or have a screechy voice, that shit drives me insane. If someone is playing a bad mother fucker, make sure they have a bad mother fucker voice lol.
No clue. How is that at all relevant to the conversation?
I shouldn't have to explain are you dense ?
