What anime do you think is better when it's english dubbed?

I think pretty much any anime out there is better in english... at least when done right (I'm looking at you, 4Kids, even if you do make good original shows).

No, seriously, I'll often refuse to watch the original japanese dub with english subs unless it's a last resort. Why? Well, I've sinabi this before, and I'll say it again and again.

With subtitles, you have to READ. And if I want to READ, I'll grab a freaking Stephen King book off my shelf.

I would also like to say this. 4Kids isn't a bad company. Yes, they suck at dubbing and need to either stop or learn a thing or two from Funimation. However, that doesn't make them a bad company. I've seen them make some decent american shows from scratch. Plus, there was one anime that 4Kids was actually able to dub right, and that was Dinosaur King.

Anime Sagot

I agree, I have a preference toward English dubs, but when necessary (AKA when the anime was dubbed sa pamamagitan ng 4Kids), I will watch the original with subs. Really, for the first episode of the HetaOni MAD series I didn't even use the subs XD.

But I must say, my paborito dub sa pamamagitan ng far is Hetalia. Why? Well, because the accents make the entire thing THAT much funnier! XD

Hetalia cause they have accents and VERY fitting voices. Funimation never disappoints me.

THE WORST DUB COMPANY EVER IS THEOCEANGROUP!
They make 4kids look amazing O.o

I agree with the thing about Hetalia. Some of my favs are J Michael Tatum (Dunno how to spell his name) Todd Haberkorn and Vic Mignona (Same with Vic's name XD)

I agree with usually watching english dubs *looks down in shame* but I do pag-ibig the original japanese too~ for me, I would say Baccano! Has an amazing dub. It is a mafia anime based in New York so you know, it has to have the Italian accents! XD Hetalia and Cowboy Bebop are very well dubbed too~

I'm a dub person myself, though I've been watching some subs lately due to lack of choice. It seems they're doing/posting less dubs lately. Anyway, two anime come to the tuktok of the listahan as better in dub. Cromartie High School: After watching it initially in dub, I tried to watch it in sub and got a headache. The humor doesn't translate as well, either. The segundo is Cowboy Bebop. I can't stand Spike's or Faye's Japanese voices.

The ipakita is suposd to be stereotypical and offensive so it wouldn't be the same without the accents~

In my opinion, one of the best dubbed anime's is Ouran High School Host Club. The voices are spot on, and it sounds so much madami funny in english!

People may disagree with me here, but I also think a really good dub is Death Note. So is melokoton Girl.

I do like dubs, but there are some anime's that I just HAVE to watch in Japanese because it sounds so much better: Hell Girl, Vampire Knight and K-ON

So, you don't want to understand what they're saying, and you want to look down at the bottom to read stupid text, thus causing you to miss some important action going on? *facepalm*

Also, I had a friend once who loved a certain anime ipakita (the name escapes me at the moment). Now, he hates it because he found out that the japanese voices were horrible (mind you, the JAPANESE voices, not the english voices).

Every ipakita I've ever watched (aside from one) was utterly ruined when dubbed. The voices NEVER fit the characters in any way whatsoever. Subs don't bother me since I'm a speed reader and it only takes a few segundos to read them.

However, Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne is MUCH better dubbed than subbed. The voices fit and the pagganap usually isn't too overdramatic. The subs actually make it worse since they were poorly translated. Well actually they were too well translated and weren't tweaked to make sense in the Western societies so I was confused while pagbaba them.

How the fuck don't the voices fit the characters? I've watched plenty of anime sa pamamagitan ng Funimation, and the voices all fit like a glove.

I didn't say the voices of Funimation didn't fit the characters. None of the animes above that I know of were done sa pamamagitan ng Funimation that sucked. The only one I liked was done sa pamamagitan ng Funimation. Where the hell did you even get that in the first place? Unless you can't read how I praised Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne and watched the trailer ipinapakita Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne done sa pamamagitan ng Funimation. Plus, I praised Funimation in a comment to a picture above. Seriously, pay attention before you start throwing a cuss word out there. -.-
