But why do japs like our English dubs
>>
>>138758159
I only watch dubs when the characters are too white for the japanese. A good example, not anime I know, is Final Fantasy, the twelfth being the most adequate to play with an english dub.

>>138758159
After that time loop bullshit I lost interest in Haruhi, but I still wanted to say I 'finished it', then I switched to dubs so I could multitask this shit show.

I don't like having to continuously pause just to read the subtitles. I'm just trying to watch anime, not read.

I don't. I can only write and read in english (not my first language) so I'm unable to enjoy dubs.

I'd still watch subs even if I could, though.

I refuse to believe anyone that wants to stay current with anime would wait for a "dub" to come out these days. I just can't accept it.

Any show where the JP seiyus speak broken Engrish just ruins a scene. Zankyou no Terror comes to mind. The Psycho Pass movie.

I'll take a dub over broken Engrish from an Eleven any day.

Also dubs for mindless filler shows. I'll watch subs when it's a good show and I really want to give it my full attention.
>>
>>138759430
Why spoiler? Anglos watching their own dubs is retarded, but at least somewhat understandable.
Anyone else doing it should probably kill themselves.

You know what? That is the only answer I would accept.
Unless your Moonspeak is decent, it's hard to get the same level of campy enjoyment out of Japanese audio and subs in that show.

Dubs are pretty good sometimes. I've even watched some fandubs that would amaze you; studio quality.

I'm gonna give you an actual answer

With anime that is very quote-heavy, let's take Gurren Lagann as example,
I remember the quotes better than japanese.

The final "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE" is way more powerful this way and you can remember it better.

Single one-liner such as Omae wa mou shinderou can be remembered as well but as soon as we get to great monologues
the sub is a negative aspect.

That being said, in general sub is still better but some anime work better with dub when it has memorable/repeated quotes
>>
elitism over preferences is stupid
but what am i saying, this is /a/. that's basically all you chucklefucks do.
>>
>>138758519
We dont. Fuck off with your dubs

Because I watch anime while I play vidya so it's hard to read and play at the same time

I like watching shows in my native language and sometimes the jap voices are too much to handle.

That said, I love Jojo subbed. Dubbed is AIDS for trying to watch seriously.
