When you see Kurama in the manga, do you prefer the English or Japanese voice?

If you prefer the English dub over the Japanese dub/sub then you deserve to be killed off...

Tenten is the perfect example of why most of the English voices are better. The sub is always so emotionless too.

Too many weeaboos here.

I initially watched the english dubs, but eventually got to Japanese only episodes and it was too hard to go back and forth between the languages. Now I like the Japanese version better - and have picked up quite a bit of words as a bonus.
I am not sure about Kurama's voice, but Naruto's voice was what made me stick with the Japanese dub - he sounds too female-like in the English version, and his Japanese voice actor is great.

My main beef with the anime voices has been their use of adult voice male actors to play flashbacks to childhood. I think both English and Japanese versions did that. Sasuke's flashbacks as a 6-8 year old were especially odd, using an adult male voice. Why not pick female actors for these flashbacks instead?
On the con side, much as I like Naruto's voice actor, any normal 16 year old boy has had his voice change to an adult male voice, so he should too.

im sorry dude, but english lacks so much of the emotion....most of the english voice actors, honestly sound terrible.....like ash's new voice actor(or voice)in the pokemon(i dont watch but have seen commercials) they sound constipated, and not like a natural voice
