One of my friends keeps insisting that english is so much better than japanese on an anime, just liked to see what you all think. I personally love japanese, it's too amazing.
Hmm.. Example would be.. would you prefer to watch something like inuyasha in english or japanese?
Hehe. I saw a KH2 Trailer in japanese. Those voices were amazing, too bad I can't play it in japanese caus i cant understand it!

Well, feel free to post your thoughts.

I prefer Japanese. Sometimes in english version, they can't pronouce some words correctly. I thought the english voices for Inuyasha were pretty similar to the Japanese voices, IMO.

I would pick Japanese with English subs over English dub anyday. English dub never seemed to do any justice to anime series.

i dont care really


English Dubber for Zechs in Gundam Wing really suited his character IMO

same with Char Aznable for Chars Counter Attack

but the Japanese versions can be better

To me it counts to what I listen to first. I could listen to the English dubs and prefer over the Japanese voices. But being more of an avid sub reader and I like the Japanese voices better. I'm sure i had some exception to English>Japanese.. not remembering what... The english dubbing could suck, but hey sometimes it beats reading. I'm more visual so sound doesn't matter tooooo much?
