Why people like the sub than the dub?

Ok, I'm talking about the anime and video games. Most people like the sub better because they "better" voices. But it's pretty annoying however. I wan't to know why? I don't actually this get it. (not trolling)

1. Japanese voices were what the creator of the anime said 'yes' to which means it was probably selected out of a group. While the English voice acting seems more of like a shoddy after thought. Example compared to this (Kamina is way more manly in this version.)

2. The censorship, with cases like One Piece. 4kids destroyed the dub and made it vastly inferior to the Japanese version. I'd like to watch anime as how the makers wanted it to be like. Examples of censorship: Sanji's cigarettes were turned into lollipops and the horrible opening theme.

3. Waiting for a sub is faster than waiting for a horrible dub.

They probably aren't better sounding. But it's embarrasing with some voices.

Some....a lot of you either watch very very bad animes (90% of it these days?) or you're just dub bashing. Any dub with Johnny Young Bosch usually voids the argument of "this anime's dub was horrible". We need less "We're in the 90s!" mentality in this thread! Dub voice actors become popular for a reason. The way some of you talk would make any person unfamiliar with anime think that the dubs all sound like this Hello!

I was actually an anti-fan of Death Note's dub until I bought the entire anime and actually rewatached it dubbed. It's seriously a preference thing, not a FACT OF LIFE thing. Happy you guys don't control dubs. >_>

I do prefer subs because that was the original language it was suppose to be in and it usually fits better. However there are exceptions Ghelbi studio usually use great English voice actors and I prefer that over the original.

Two main reasons

1. People prefer the authenticity of Subs.

2. Sum dubs are bad (looking at you 4kids :evil: )

Though dubs are allot better than they used to be and even better than the original sometimes in voice acting talent.

i mostly watch dub becuase english is my native language and i prefer to hear a voice i can both understand and that sounds familiar. although if i really like a show and there is no dub like some of the FMA OVAs i will watch the sub version.

I think they are dubbed now.

Aww, I saw the beginning of the title and thought this was going to be about a different kind of sub. :(

Because most of the time, the english voice actors usually make the dub suck since they don't seem to put their soul into it. They seem to over do it during dramatic sequences and sound corny during the normal parts. Sometimes, the voice actor don't seem to really fit the character that well. Then the translations for most animes aren't great....tocool340

I like hearing the original language. If it's Japanese or Spanish (languages I've studied in the past) even better. I always like recognizing words and phrases that I know.
