Difference between Anime English Dub/Sub(Opinions?)

[Aurora Moon]

Okay, I initially started out watching Naruto dubbed, but as I went on I decided to switch onto subbed when I reached the most recent dubbed episode.

(Switched to manga once I reached the most recent subbed one. :O)

My personal opinion on both of them:

=English dubbed=​

Pros:

+I always found the voices to have more variety in the dubbed versions. I believe the only one I found more suited for subbed was Zetsu's voice.+

+Since I don't know Japanese(I'm sure I'm not the only one!) I don't have to look down at the words every 4 seconds. Great for getting the full view of the show without missing any visual details.+

Cons:

-In my opinion you don't get the full, original experience.(manga provides more originality from the creator however)

-Do the characters seem more judgmental in English? Maybe I'm just subliminally thinking so since I can hear and understand the words getting across.

-Uploaded slower!

=English subbed=​

Pros:

+More originality than dubbed.

+The characters just seem more playful and nice to be around.

+Uploaded faster!

Cons:

-The voices don't always seem to fit the character to me. For example: I used to really like how Tenten's dubbed voice was. WHAT DID THEY DO TO IT?

-You have to look at the text every 4 seconds and I used to miss something visually above it at times.(Not a slow reader!:O)

I would love to hear everyone's opinion!​

Everything about subbed is better. They get shit voice actors for pretty much every dubbed anime

You might be right!:O I was thinking it probably would've been better if I started subbed in the first place.

Only hearing naruto's voice in english dub. and how they pronounce shit makes me want to hang myself. so no thank you. I rather look 3 sec down to read the text.. then look at the clouds.

Obito's and Madara's voice are sexier in subbed.

Dubbed 10/10 I'm no weaboo, I have no reason to pretend like I enjoy looking at the bottom of the screen.

Only con there is, it's that it's behind.

 

[lytie]

Subbed all the way!!!

Yeah it always sounds better with what youre used to i guess. Its been a long time since ive watched Naruto anime but listen to Kakuzu's voice in Japanese and English and tell me Japanese isnt worlds better

but dub can be good i mean just look at ur sig thats the best dubbed anime of all time imo so it can be done

 

[syed47]

the best voice ever in Naruto is DUBBED JIRAIYA's. damn i love it.

Honestly, even for Bebop i much prefer the Japanese version. Tone is everything. And it seems to get lost in most English versions

I did love Jiraiya's dubbed voice, but he was gone before I went to anime, so I couldn't tell you what his voice was subbed.

It just come down to your personally preferences. I prefer dubbed anime over subs.

Couldn't agree more.

Sorry But I prefer English Dubbed version of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden,official ones,not channel ones.
Pretty much like how I loved Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood English Dubbed More than Subbed,Funimation dubbed,btw.

Any dubbed version of animes I have seen from Funimation,I liked it better than Originals up till now.
Even Bleach I liked Dubbed one....

Deathnote is arguable,though...
and Onepiece,well forget it,I better watch looney toons......

Subbed. Nuff' said.
