I know it’s the unpopular decision, but I’m picking dub just cause and to make it fun 😊😄

Anyone who chooses sub is a certified psycho . Edit I ment dub

Cephandrius

The sub for ReZero is insane I can’t speak on the dub at all as I haven’t watched it but I would say some of the sub moments are the best I’ve seen in terms of voice acting

Ryan Peters

Why would watching something in the language it was designed, animated and recorded for be the 'psycho' choice? That's a bizarre take

Thamor

Sub 100%, better EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!

Jesse Suthers

I guess I know what anime I'm watching next

Hi! My preference has been mainly “sub” over dub because the animation feels more natural that way and you get a better experience during an emotional scene, action sequences, or character interaction as you get the full impact of moment compared to a watered down version resulting from the layering of translated vocals unto the anime. That’s just my personal opinion.

CastSenpai

The sub voice acting is unreal. Especially a certain villain. Just can't replicate that. Definitely the only choice.

Virgil Hawkins

The animation doesn’t really affect the translation considering it’s not like the mouths ever match the Japanese dialogue. They don’t animate the mouths like they do in western animation

ThaDoubleB

Absolutely Sub. It has some of the best VA of any anime I’ve seen. Even if the Dub is fine (which I’m not sure it is.) The sub is head and shoulders better than it, and even other subbed anime.

Re:Zero fans rejoice! Our time has finally come

I ain’t even voted for this anime but because I’m hating I’m voting for sub.

Voted sub, I have heard both versions and both the sub and dub do a good job respectively but some of the sub voice actors have arguably some of the best work of their career in this series. Plus I highly doubt you guys would have trouble following because of having to read subtitles, its more dialogue heavy than some other shows but you handled AoT, HunterxHunter, and other shows just fine so doubt this will be overwhelming at all.

Ahh sigh, I knew the elitist would vote sub even if they haven't heard the other option or even watched the show

Dankster

That's extremely presumptuous of you. I've watched Sub and Dub, and the dub just doesn't have the same quality of performances as the sub does.

Aleister Crowley

I've watched both because of dub watching reactors, and I could say it's okay. but it's definitely no contest, sub is way better.

Danny

i love how these weirdos just like saying the word "elitist" and presumed that they are always right when they dont realize they the ones having some inferiority complex over a dubbing

Trell

I defend dub only on a few anime. I thought this one was pretty foul lol. Sub all day.

Mario Prime Plays

I’m all for dubbed anime, FMA, Cowboy Bebop, One Piece, Dragonball. Re:Zero has a good dub, but the sub is a level above. It’s similar to the HxH dub, while good it doesn’t have the highs that the sub has. That all being said, I’ll vote for dub cause I know sub is gonna be picked and I love being contrarian lol.

chefboyarkey

Why is it elitist to prefer sub? I’ll never understand that narrative, how is it different than preferring dub? It’s YALL that put a complex on it. I’m almost positive you’re allowed to have whatever opinion you want. I prefer the original voice acting in any media whether it’s English, Japanese, elvish, doesn’t matter but that’s just me

Killua X

hasn't this won multiple awards for the lead VA of the sub? wonder why it's even a question

Virgil Hawkins

I don’t think it’s automatically elitist to prefer sub. But it’s disingenuous to act like there aren’t a lot of anime fans who treat all dubs as if they’re trash by default. You don’t really get the same thing the other way around.

chefboyarkey

I’m talking about specifically the word elitist. People who use that word for people who disparage dub or people who prefer sub, do not know what that means. It’s not elitist even if you think dub is trash by default, it makes you advocative. Even if I do talk down about dub, still not elitist

Virgil Hawkins

These are semantics. It’s obvious what people mean. The idea is that some people view those who automatically see dubs as trash as people who think they’re better than those who don’t, or that they’re not true fans. It’s not always exactly true, but you get the idea. They’re saying it seems dismissive and kind of snobbish. You’re allowed to have your own opinion, but other people can see that opinion in their own way

joshua woolard

Both Sub and Dub are fantastic! However, the Sub VA is on another level imo.

Luci

Dub is good as well, and I understand why they would do dubbed because of the dialogue. But I agree the sub is highly better.
