English Subs or English Dubs?

[Umandsf]

Both, and while we're add it, add the Spanish dubs in there as well. (and maybe German)

Heheheeeee, can't resist:

Spoiler:

I remember back when I was trying to catch up with DC, there was one really badly subbed episode. My favorite line from it: "What are you doing on earth?"

Subs. I got used to subs... that's why. It sounds really weird when I hear dubs.

Same. I'm also a readaholic and can actually get mildly bored if there's nothing to read, especially in exposition scenes (which DC has in SPADES )

IMO, if anyone had a terrible dub voice for Digimon Adventure or Adventure 02, it was Iori (Cody).  He sounded like a recovering smoker.

I prefer english subs, because the first ever I saw english dubs, it is sucks. it gives me a trauma over english dubs

English subs.
As for English dubs, I tend to have problems understanding the lines, as my written English is significantly better than my oral one, in both directions. Actually, I even prefer English subs to German subs (German is my native language), as for one, things sound less like Narm, and second, it is useful to enhance one's English

It really depends. If it's new or I can't find the dub I'll watch subbed and if it the dub is blatantly inferior I'll watch subbed but that's about it. I tend to watch dubbed more often than not as japanese voice acting is often overrated.

This is pretty much my standpoint. To me, I think of a subbed version of a show to be a 'different show' from the dubbed one. That way I'm not comparing them or going 'They changed this so it sucks'. There are a lot of troubles in the lines of dubbing and it's hard work, so, unless it's really really bad, I tend to enjoy dubs. There's also the fact that if it weren't for the internet and wonderful places like DCTP, we wouldn't have subs or translations, so I appreciate what the dubs legally bring us and that they give profits to the original source.

I could go on forever, but I won't.

English Subs. (I hope I haven't posted here yet)

When I was younger I watched the dubbed version of CCS, when I finished it, I watched the subbed and realized that there were a LOT of cut scenes. So I prefer the subs. Plus, the other dubs that I 'watched' were horrible, they just hurt my ears.

And the good thing about subs is that I can watch it with a low volume while everyone else is sleeping >:)

As much as I support subs, this is not really an argument. What about headphones?

Headphones hurt your ears though.
