Do you like Oringal or dubbed animes/drama?

for me I like both

Digimon is better dubbed in English then Cantonese when the voice is terrible and give them dordgy names however Indinal D is better in Cantonese/Japanese because Eng version sound horrible even the songs is bad in US (2 much black style :banghead: ) but i do like dubbed as well.

For drama is have to be eng stubbed, no dubbed series/movie turn out to be good :woot:

OMG! Original is A MUST!!!!!!!! When I watch video content, it's a very visual experience. If I even see a slight mis-timed move of the lips with the audio, it drives me up the frigging wall!!!!

You read my mind! I was fixing stuff in the thread and moving it to the J-ENT. In any case, it's now moved and you guys can carry on with your discussion. :)

Original with subs. I like to hear the original voices of the actors/characters. Since it's really annoying when the dubbed voice's expression doesn't really go with the body language of the actor.

It's a no brainer: original with subs... :)

A dub is still a dub, and unacceptable, no matter how good....

Original with subs for me all the way. :woot:

There is one exception I can think of where the dub was better. Cowboy Bebop's English dub actually had better voices than the original Japanese cast! :beaten:

Gotta run with the pack here.

I need to hear the original actor's voice.

And since I don't speak any language other than English... I've come to depend on Subs.

I haven't been able to sit though any movie or TV show that's been dubbed in years.

Re: Anime and cartoons... there is no "real" voice. They're cartoons.

Never mind. I shouldn't have risked bringing politics into this thread. Even for a joke.

Yup, it's the quickest way to see a thread go up in flames.

Reasons why I missed "GOOD LUCK", "LONG VACATION", and some other Jdramas that were aired in here because the dubbing sucks :bleh: and the worst is they're replacing the original names with english names :banghead: :banghead: why they just air it with subs? :shakehead: I remembered what happened on Nodame last year....... they ruined it... Juri's dubber is ekkkk :bleh: good thing I already watched it when they aired it here.... same goes to 1 litre of tears....... Riko's dubber is :grumble:
