Demon Slayer SUB OR DUB? (Patreon)

I meant to do this a lot earlier but ended up filming the first 2 episodes of Demon Slayer in dub first.

But I'm open to switching to sub if the interest is there! It's been a lot of dub on the channel recently. 

Let me know your preference for how we watch Demon Slayer!

Definitely sub for this one, I don’t think it’s even a contest. Better dubs are very rare imo

Justice Hastings

I think both are fine but the sub probably has the edge for raw authenticity

according to the internet the only socially acceptable dub is death note

NitrousOxide19

Mob psycho watch Dub but for this one it’s def sub

DontStealMyFish

I like a lot of dubbed anime, but my preference for Demon Slayer is sub as the voices sound a little more accurate to the depicted characters. Except the blonde guy, he is annoying in both. Still love him though...

thevoidbender

I think whatever you want is fine. The dub is pretty okay for this one. The Tanjiro voice actor I think does pretty well.

BotheredAsh

While the sub is better, from the little I've heard, it's not really so much better as to give up the convenience of being able to actually watch the action rather than focus on catching the subtitles.

Dub until you catch up

John Bass

Lots of emotional screaming/shouting in this show. For some reason I prefer hearing japanese screams over english.

It’s not so much as the dub’s super bad (though I’ve seen dub clips of youtube and didn’t love what I saw), it’s that the sub is REALLY good.

Sean Wilson

I watched the first few episodes in dub, but switched to the sub mainly because of the main character's voice. It's really a matter of opinion.

switching to sub when u've been watching dubbed the entire time is such a jarring experience do not recommend

Megan
>>76996169

Same I can enjoy a good dub when it comes up, but for Demon Slayer I gotta chose sub.

Brimmy
>>76996280

yeah that's where the emotion is at in the sub tanjrio's VA does such an amazing job

Several dubs nowadays are really good, especially for people who prefer them. However, I think the Demon Slayer one is just 'kind of okay,' and if you can watch either, the sub is a lot better. If you ever watch Haikyuu!, it also falls under that category, where the sub is a better watching experience overall, but the dub isn't bad for those who prefer not to read and watch at the same time. On a semi-related note, an example of an unacceptable viewing experience in a dub in comparison to the sub would be AoT, lol

Matthew Richson

For this one, I have to say sub. MHA, dub. Black Clover, dub. Bleach, dub. JJK… either. But for Demon Slayer, definitely 100% sub.

benj

Loving these results so far. Based Goodwin community. Usually you guys love dubs but I enjoy seeing the concession that this show simply just has to be watched in sub.

Eric Gilreath

I think the dub voices are okay, but the Japaneses voices just have more impact.

Jake White

I’m honestly a bigger dub fan than the vast majority of people I’ve seen/spoken to and I rarely ever do care enough about the difference to actually recommend one over the other for most shows, but the sub for this series is infinitely times better than the dub. Jujutsu Kaisen is another one of those rare cases. Mob Psycho, MHA, etc etc. dub all the way. But not for demon slayer lol

Alex Williams

I voted sub but I know a lot of people like sub for this one but I think what people need to understand is that you give a lot of details on character development most of the time instead of overall action at least that’s what it seem like to me so if I were you I would go dub so you can focus on the characters more

Anonymous

as someone who watches dub for almost any anime I watch, go sub on this one, the dub isn't that great

Tim Lawrence

Now look, dub actually isnt bad honestly, but the sub is just amazing

Fizzle
>>76996963

Wouldn't sub be better for character/plot understanding? Seems like dub would be the option for paying more attention to the action, as your eyes don't have to glance down at the words.

Tyre Willis

Personally I think the sub is better for this one but the dub is still good. But he's more of a dub guy And I don't think it's fair to force him to watch sub because of our viewings preferences

Andre Tan

For any anime I watch, the default for me is always sub just cos I feel it’s more authentic and Japanese voice actors rarely miss even if the show is trash, UNLESS I specifically hear about a show where the dub is like superior in a rare instance like FMAB or Cowboy Bebop

Anonymous

I didn’t mind the dub but it’s very different and more light hearted I feel like

benj
>>76997305

Yep this is exactly how I go about it as well.

Megan

So glad we don’t have to go through this debate for Arcane😭

Tyre Willis
>>76997570

You'd be surprised 😂 some crack head somewhere in the comments will probably harasse him to do that one in sub too

Slim Cognito

I started in dub but found Tanjiro annoying and switched to sub his VA in Japanese is great. But generally it’s a decent dub so either way works fine.

Anonymous

I'd personally say whichever. I just get tired of the Sub and Dub wars. I like both in most cases, but the elitist arrogance from some sub watchers tends to dissuade me from wanting to watch some shows altogether.

benj
>>76999097

i wouldnt let random anime viewers effect your likelihood of watching new shows. There are tons of horrible fans in the MHA and AOT fanbases. This has 0 influence on how I view or enjoy the show myself though, because my experience with the series is unique to me and myself only. Thats just my mentality with this type of thing anyways, if I let fans of shows dissuade me from things I would have nothing to watch at this point lmao.

Amber

I actually liked the dub for demon slayer, it’s just always behind the sub so at least you can catch up with the episodes & not have to wait for the dub this way 🤷🏻‍♀️

Rice
>>76997159

I think he’s said before he usually prefers sub actually for normal viewing, he just uses dub because it’s easier to edit.

Anonymous

for me personally the demon slayer SUB is superior to the DUB. it’s not like MHA where i think the DUB is on a similar level to the SUB, the demon slayer SUB is just better in my opinion. i don’t know why but i just don’t like tanjiro’s DUB voice (also another main character’s voice but no spoilers hehe). like when you dislike the main characters’ voices it just makes it hard to watch tbh, like don’t get me wrong i wouldn’t call the DUB straight up trash, like there are rarely any DUBS in the recent years that can be considered pure garbage, but from my point of view the demon slayer DUB is really just inferior to the SUB. like at the end of the day, ofc watch the one you want to watch but i’m just saying the SUB was a better experience for me, at least.

Darby

I was honestly surprised with how much I enjoyed the MHA dub (sub is still better imo) but this is a show where the dub just doesn't compare whatsoever. Like AOT, this needs to be watched in sub.

Anonymous

Noo, I know most people like the sub better, but I was excited about watching the dub for this cuz it's what I watched and I really liked it :(

Anonymous

I just wanna say I know its late to vote or even advocate for Dub since I am a big dub watcher. I just wanna say my peace with the fact that the DUB Isn't that bad despite what others say. I hear the same Arguments all the time on why the Sub is some how better "Better Voice Acting" Which isn't even the original interpritation of the Source Material; First and formost, Most Animes start off as a Manga the characters don't come drawn in with voices they(The voice actors) have to be given their own Spin off the Dialogue that is written by the actual author of the Manga. So to say that is more "Authentic" is a bit disingenuous IMO. Also One Big Reason why I believe alot of hate comes to the Dub Community is because it is MUCH easier to tell when something doesnt' sound correct when its your own Native language. Alot of the way anime characters talk to each other actually isn't even how Japanese people actually talk to each other or hold simple conversations. I don't have time to go threw specifics but as a Spanish Speaker I would say its like watching a Telenovela and talking to some one like that in real life in spanish isn't the same. To end this comment I would say Goodwin you should watch what you want to watch I know you wanna please your Paterons but Just watch what ever version appeals to you be it sub or dub, one thing I love about you is your authenticity. Us Paterons will love you no matter what cause I don't come hear to listen to watch the anime(most of which ive already watched)I come here to learn and be open minded about Ethics,Philosphy,Life to better myself and I will continue to do so No matter what version you watch.

Anna Lena Ciplajevs

I clicked on sub but I won’t mind either way

Anonymous

I’ve voted sub as it’s overall my preference but honestly pick whichever you are more comfortable with. If you want to carry on with the dub then you should :)

Anonymous

I'm a bit late to this and most people are saying sub, but i do think sub feels so much better, but i guess this is the law of equivalent exchange 2 eps of FMAB subbed before watching dubbed and now in Demon Slayer 2 eps of dubbed before (hopefully) subbed

Xeno

I've watched three of your reaction series, and two have been DUB and one has been SUB, so let's even it out and make it 2/2!

Alex Williams
>>77002307

This is perfect exactly what I was thinking please copy paste and comment it at benji he is in the comments you probably won’t but that’s fine you probably don’t want to argue with anyone but this is a great point

Sam B

I watched episode 2 after I watched your reaction to episode one, and I changed to sub after the first minute, and I was like I wish Goodwin would watch sub. Prayers answered!

Anonymous

I will always prefer dub over sub because it's easier to connect to something when I understand it and the inflections are ones I can read well but the people have spoken. Aww you're gonna miss out on Bryce's Inosuke. You should at least watch his first few eps of him in dub for yourself. The English cast is so charming. lol I'm just glad MHA is in dub so I can dig back into that later this year!

LudicrouslyLuke

Again, with Demon Slayer this is the only time I prefer sub over dub, so bless! :)

KuroOberon

lots of interesting takes and talks going on in the comments in regards to sub v dub, so i might as well say my piece too. for a very long time all i watched was dubs, its what i grew up watching on mainstream tv in the uk, and because of that its what i chose to watch when i branched out to other anime online as well. there are many talented VAs in english dubs, and many anime that have incredible dubs that i love, fullmetal alchemist for instance. So I certainly don't have anything against dubs, and still enjoy them here and there. I only recently turned to watching subs more regularly, not including the shows I've watched in sub purely because they were never dubbed in english. It was My Hero season 4 that moved me to subs, not because the dub was bad (it is most definitely one of the better dubs there is), but because of delays. Originally season 4 aired its subs and dubs simultaneously, so I could jump straight into the dub without being behind. But maybe a quarter of the way into that season, the dub had to fall behind (I think the reason was covid, but can't remember for certain), and I decided I didn't have the patience to wait, as once it was behind, it wasn't going to catch up until the season was already over in sub format. Since then (only the last couple of years), I have changed to more of a subs person, as it means I can get my fix of new seasons sooner. The latest season of Demon Slayer for instance, still hasn't received its dub, but is already something like 8 episodes in. So all that said, it doesn't actually correlate to my reasoning for why I prefer sub to dub in this particularly instance. There is one voice actor they chose for this show, who I just can't get behind. I find his voice distracting and it takes me out of the experience. Simple as that unfortunately, and it just feels compounded upon because the sound of that character's japanese VA always gives me tingles. it looks like the poll is most certainly heading towards Sub currently, and I definitely wouldn't hold anything against anyone that does prefer the Dub, as it isn't bad by any means. So whichever way it goes, and whichever way any future shows go, the only real important thing is that you enjoy the show and your experience watching it. We're here to see your reaction and hear your thoughts, and those things will always come out best when you are enjoying yourself the most.

Personally I've watched a fair few reaction channels and I've found that the person/people reacting do a far better job when watching Dub, since they aren't having to commentate whilst reading/watching/understanding a show, the amount of comments on subbed Youtube reactions too you tend to see a lot of annoyed people stating things that were missed during the reaction, so my personal vote is for Dub

Plus viewers get to watch their reaction as opposed to having to also read very small subtitles on a screen

Ian Mitchell

Ultimately it’s preference. But the dub adds to the vibe of the show. It’s so clean and having the original VA makes it flow better imo

Anonymous

Jesus why would you watch the atrocity that is the dub for this show? Obviously watch the sub. Im not a sub elitist but this dub is horrible.

Ruma Risto

Whatever works for you. I personally think the Japanese voice actors are far superior to the English ones. The dub also dumbed down some of the comedic moments and I don't really like the casting that much. I don't think the second season has even been dubbed in English yet so you would have to switch to sub at some point anyway. But the dub is definitely not the worst.

VesperQuartz15

Im a fan of Zach Aguilar he plays Tanjiro really well. But as a personal preference I Always watch the subs first and for rewatch I watch English dub,

benj

Change of topic but who else is H Y P E D for Arcane today?!? Best show of 2021 hands down.

Tyler Owens

I like to think I'm generally rather fair when it comes to comparing dub/sub but in terms of Demon Slayer the sub is just head and shoulders above the dub quality imo.

Mortis

I am generally a dub liker. This dub sucks ass

chi hong

I'm usually a Subs person. Mostly the english Dub is not good, with the exception of FMAB and My Hero. But what ever suits you. I just think its like watching an old Chinese Martial Arts Movie with English dub bad.

ComicalSkate

Anyone else here anxiously awaiting the release of his Arcane reaction?

Keegan Brakhage

My only problem with the demon slayer dub is having to hear demon slayer humor in my own language

David Sadeghizadeh

Like most people have already said, you should choose whichever you prefer Goodwin. However, I think for a reaction, DUB is going to be way easier and more convenient to react to, in my opinion. I think you'll have a better experience and immersion with the DUB but honestly up to you. I will say this, the DUB is better than what people have been saying.

Englewood Pony

I'm not really a sub snob but... Yeah sub is the way for this show. Mha is a little spoiled when it comes to having both be A-tier

Steve.

The Dub actors just don't even come close to the original actors tbh.

Anonymous

I like the dub but In my opinion The sub is better but it's closer than you might think there are just one or two voices I don't 100% like in the dub

Anonymous

I prefer the sub for most animes. The excessive yelling somewhat is less awkward in Japanese than in English LOL
