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.

2023-10-18 16:25:12 +0000 UTCBoth Sub and Dub are fantastic! However, the Sub VA is on another level imo.

2023-10-17 23:02:40 +0000 UTCThese 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

2023-10-17 20:07:03 +0000 UTCI’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
chefboyarkey
2023-10-17 19:42:52 +0000 UTCI 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.

2023-10-17 19:24:12 +0000 UTChasn't this won multiple awards for the lead VA of the sub? wonder why it's even a question

2023-10-17 19:13:23 +0000 UTCWhy 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

2023-10-17 18:58:44 +0000 UTCI’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.

2023-10-17 18:26:34 +0000 UTCI defend dub only on a few anime. I thought this one was pretty foul lol. Sub all day.

2023-10-17 18:25:06 +0000 UTCi 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

2023-10-17 18:23:13 +0000 UTCI'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.
Aleister Crowley
2023-10-17 18:20:19 +0000 UTCThat'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.
Dankster
2023-10-17 18:02:47 +0000 UTCI've heard both and the Sub is just better

2023-10-17 18:01:01 +0000 UTCAhh sigh, I knew the elitist would vote sub even if they haven't heard the other option or even watched the show
2023-10-17 17:58:09 +0000 UTCI feel like one of the few fans who can watch dub and sub, and enjoy both.
Nolan L Thomas
2023-10-17 17:43:32 +0000 UTCVoted 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.

2023-10-17 17:25:58 +0000 UTCI ain’t even voted for this anime but because I’m hating I’m voting for sub.

KidTwiz
2023-10-17 17:15:51 +0000 UTCAbsolutely 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.
ThaDoubleB
2023-10-17 17:12:42 +0000 UTCThe 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
Virgil Hawkins
2023-10-17 17:12:27 +0000 UTCThe sub voice acting is unreal. Especially a certain villain. Just can't replicate that. Definitely the only choice.
CastSenpai
2023-10-17 17:10:12 +0000 UTCHi! 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.

2023-10-17 17:06:02 +0000 UTCWhy would watching something in the language it was designed, animated and recorded for be the 'psycho' choice? That's a bizarre take
Ryan Peters
2023-10-17 17:06:02 +0000 UTCThe 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
