English Dub is PERFECT

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

I enjoy the show in both subbed and dubbed but basically all the fanbase just go by what they've heard in part 1 and early Shippuden and just stupidly say 'dub sux' without actually knowing much about it. Well, watch this extract- it's when Sakura confesses her 'love' to Naruto- listen to how good the voice acting is. Even Naruto and Sakura's stupid voices (the worst of the english dub) have really matured and sound great if not better than the original.

I personally watch part 1 Naruto in english dub and watch Shippuden in Japanese and so im totally unbiased but I can still admit that some of the english voices sound even better than the subbed versions.

Sai, Kakashi, Kabuto, Orochimaru, Guy, Darui, Lee- they sound FANTASTIC.

What are your thoughts? Any characters that actually sound better in english?

there are some voices that are good dubbed but i still prefer subbed...
pain had a cool voice dubbed, same as kakashi and itachi

but naruto's voice is just terrible

There are some voices I like, and some I don't like. Dubbed isn't bad at all, but not as good as subbed, or at least in my opinion.

Orochimaru's voice in the English dub is pretty good, but I still like the Japanese voice better. He sounds like a creepy mofo either way so that's all right. Other than that I like the Japanese voice actors better, and that's coming from someone who watched the dubbed for years on Cartoon Network.

Agree, it's definitely the worst- but it seriously matures after like the first Shippuden arc. It's pretty bearable now.

I started watching in English dub. Watched all dubbed episodes; love Zabuza, Tobi and Kakashi's English voices especially.

****ing hated Naruto's at the start. "Believe it!" made me want to strangle myself.

You cannot beat Pain's Japonese voice actor though, not a huge fan of the English one.

Your opinion. Remember that.

My opinion: Some dubbed voices are good, but I prefer subbed overall.

Yup, that's what a forum is about.

I watched the entire part 1 dubbed, and I loved it at the time. I now prefer subs, because I find it better, that's all.

Orochimaru's Japanese voice put the fear of God into kids watching Naruto for the first time. Can't be beat.

Lol i especially like Orochimaru's voice in english dub. watch the fight between him and Hiruzen again. the way he keeps saying "Sensei" in that antagonistic 'Orochimaru' way of speaking Lol pure class. they should brimg back the dub even if only so i can laugh when Orochimaru is being sarcastic Lol

 

[zamki]

I think subbed version is overall better

 

[Steaktacular]

To each his own...

Personally, I dislike dubs, be it english or in my native language.

That link is of a ninja something scene it's not even from an episode,cannon or filler.
Subbed is ages ahead.They portray the characters better.Kakashi dubbed voice was good but the voice actor didn't really get Kakashi's personality.His reactions didn't match Kakashi's attitude.And Naruto's voice??Oh god why?
Sub all the way,baby!!!

 

[TaigaUchiha]

at first i thought it was pretty good at the beginning but when naruto yelled i was WOAH!!!
