Sub are better. With excel saga, in the dubbed version you still see the notes around (cause I watch it on the anime network) but I like hearing the orginal voices. If anyone has seen the 2nd yu yu hakusho movie (bonds of fire) the dubbed version STUNK! Kurama sounded to much like a guy, Megumi Ogata does a great kurama. Hiei's voice was slurred, unlike kuwabara's and his voice is supposed to be bad. Hiei's is supposed to be deep and sexy (if you ask me)

It may be annoying when the subtitles go by so fast, but it's worth earing the orginal voices.

For sure, subs are the way to go. Look at Jap DBZ and English DBZ. There is absolutley no comparison. I have to wonder if the idiots at funimation even heard the original dialogue (oh yeah, they totally ruined the musical score too). The Japanese actors/actresses definately put more into their work than anybody else. Although some good dubs I think are
1. Tenchi series (as long as people continue to reprise their roles)
2. Trigun
3. Inu Yasha
4. Ninja Scroll (the movie)

I agree. Xellos's voice is perfect in the English Dub. It just sounds weird in Japanese. Then there is the voice they used in a Slayers movie that had him in it. In the movie, the Dub voice sounded gay. So I can only listen to his voice in the English Dub in the series.

But, anyway. It depends. I just care about how the voices sound. Like Vash's and Wolfwood's voice I like better in English. However, Merriel's and Milly's voices sound better in Japanese.

Megumi Hayashibara does the voice of Female Ranma in Ranma 1/2, the original version.

And I still will never understand how people can say they dislike the original voice or like the dub voice of Vash over the Japanese one....just in so many ways I can't understand it....

I used to think Dubs were great. Much easier to watch and just listen. No reading involved. Now I understand that the translation is only as good as the amount of times the mouth moves. Lotta misunderstandings. The first subbed series I saw (Cowboy Bebop) was tough, but I am getting used to the Japanese voices. I have an ear for it now. So I like it a lot more. No misunderstandings. Go subs!
