It those Otaku out there,
Dub vs. subs is probably the most controvecal topic in fandom of anime. It tend ( though not limited to) personally preference to one or the other. This lead to the yum-yuck effect, where one group dislikes the other. This is what peeves me the most.
Because I like dubs, many people yuck my yum. Why does this peeve me so...not my preference, but their arrogance. Because people on both side fight over which is better, so the argument take a turn into a hell storm of a fight.
Dubs and subs have their own strengths and weaknesses. Dubs tend to be stronger on English speaking (or another language), because it turns into another shown. It is much harder for a populous to read quick glimpses of the navie language but listening to it in Japanese. Unlike the dub, subtitles are closer to the translation of the accual Japanese. The my biggest peeve on subs is fansubs. Good, not nessasarally...they can be in correct and even illegal to produce.
This is the main reason I like dubs, they are official...except fandubs (WITH PEEVE ME THE MOST!!!). Dubs eliminate the reading and give a better understanding to the non-Japanese speaking member of the audience. Though, subs have a good fan base as well. Just don't say dubs ruin the original Japanese, because (sometime the Japanese is better) it is an interpretation of what the characters are saying. They are always speaking Japanese, we just presive it as English. TARDIS mode!!!
P.P.S.- To those who still dis agree,comment why they are better...without prasing subs or dubs and destroying the other.
P.S.- Sword Art Online and Accel World are being dubbed, no one ruin this moments...EVERRR!!!
