Would you rather watch anime in Japanese or in English?

i hate watching animes such as naruto on YTV. i dont like the way their voices sound. i much prefer the voices to be in japanese and i can just read subtitles at the bottom.

Japanese of course! Not only I like better the japanese voices but also they fit the characters much more. Afther watching an anime with it's original language I cant watch it dubbed. Besides, dubbed animes have the disadvantage of speaking oftenly not matching the mouth's movment.

I would love it more if I can watch the anime in full japanese language, I can feel more the the story and the tone of the japanese is more intensse plus I like it when I can read the dialogue cause I can understand it more clearly.

I also prefer in the "real" Japanesse, cause the voices is more well heard and describe the character's profile properly. I've ever wach a dubbed anime (in English) and I found it hard to understand (since English is not my language), also the voice didn't match with the character (I think).

in Japanese of course. the sound is original and i dun know, it sounds to me that the characters is more alive if it's in japanese. if the animes doesn't have any subtittle and the only option is in english and japanese. i rather choose not to watch and wait for the subtittle one to come.

hi there...... i watvh anime or movies in english becouse i wont to know what they are saying

I have to agree to the first guy who responded to this discussion. You would definitely appreciate the intonation and the emotion if you will watch it with its original language with subtitles. You might even learn their language, isnt fun to learn something new? I like watching anime with subtitles because its their original voice and you would definitely appreciate it. I like the dubbed versions like the Full Metal Alchemist, the voice actors are really good. The voice overs are really nice, this is the best dubbed anime I have watched!

I prefer watching in Japanese, so that I could learn Japanese in a way.

for me i prefer watch anime in japanese with english subtitle in it. It's because i can learn from watching it at the same and enjoy it. In my country, they changed to "malaysia language". I didn't watch it because it too bored because they changed it. That's why i always download the anime or sometime i just watch it on streaming only.

I don't understand Japanese so i prefer to watch anime movies in English than Japanese. Cheers and have a nice day ahead..

Although I don't speak Japanese, I personally prefer Japanese and me reading english subtitles. Why? It's because English dubbed voices sound so off and Japanese voices just sound right. It doesn't really matter, but subs come out faster too so yeah.

I love to watch everything in its original language, so I prefer anime in japanese.

originally I watched anime in english and I thought it was good but then after watching them in japanese and then going back I was like OMG this is horrible! So basically I don't mind it if I hear it first in english but I prefer to watch it in the original language. Luckily for me there aren't many anime in english and lots I enjoy in japanese so I'll have fn with that :)

I prefer watching animes in Japanese with english subtitles hahaha One of the reasons is that I'm always curious about the original voices, and the other reason is that sometimes in english doesn't sound good... I've watched animes in english and I thought they were nice! But in other animes, seems like there's no emotion at all, the voice doesn't match the reation of the character or the scene he/she is in.

i like both, i mean prefer english because thats what i speak, but watching the english subs isn't all that bad. the only problem is that i have to watch it on my comp and not the TV screen, and also, if i'm tired i can't just close my eyes and listen. but i do both, if the anime is in english, i'll watch the english version, even if i'm watching the japanes subbed one already. thats what i normally do..

I'd prefer watching anime in Japanese. The main reason is I like Japanese seiyuus/the original seiyuus better than the dubber. Besides, I'll have more chance to improve my Japanese =)

i would rather to wacth a japanese anime with a english sub title...

I would rather watch them in Japanese; with one exception:Rurouni Kenshin. The japanese voice for Kenshin sounds like a girl rather than a man.

I would also prefer Japanese because the voices sounds cool and also how they motivate each words they say. Also their expressions are funny. Its alright even if I am reading the English subtitle what's important is how they deliver each lines.

ofcourse in japanese dub. there is nothing more cooler than watching it in its own language. the voice actors in dubbing of an anime sounds really great, i just love to listen to their cute voices. it really suites every character who speaks in an anime that you watch. They perfectly match the voices to the characters, even the ost's its all good.
