Do you prefer anime in the original language or English Dub?

I prefer subs, but in recent years it's getting hard to sit down and just watch everything I want. Now I watch some shows in sub and others in dub, so I can do work, clean, workout, or whatever without my eyes being 100% focused on the show. Plus dubs are much better then they used to be, so that helps.

I usually watch it first in sub then if I like it enough for a rewatch, I'll do it in dub

Regardless whether it’s anime or not, I always choose the original language of any production.

Unless it's Ghost Stories right? Right?

There's a couple dubs i prefer. Baccano in japanese kind of threw me because of the setting, Ghost Stories is literally only watchable in dub, and cyberpunk was honestly pretty good as a dub.

Honestly if it takes place in Japan its better in sub cause the culture and nuances are lost in dub. It also depends on the type of anime. Some types of characters just don't come through a well in dub like kuderes or deadpan characters and tsunderes cause in dub they just sound whiny and bitchy and you kind of want to punch them.😅

Depends on the Anime and what studio English dubs it

always sub when it's a blind watch, but sometimes dubs are good and I end up preferring them

Mostly dub for me. If a show has a dub available I watch it in that. There has been very few shows whose English dub was so bad that I felt like I HAD to watch the sub. Most of the time which ever language you start with is how you associate how you think the characters should sound. For comedy, I think dub is almost always better.
