    I’ll say it: I prefer dubbed over subbed. English voice acting has been getting much better over the past several years (when studios want to pay for it, at least), and honestly, I get tired of reading all the subtitles in every show I watch. That said, I still watch more subbed than dubbed, since it’s more available.

    Side note - sub watchers who think they’re superior need to get over themselves. Let people enjoy things however they want. Yes, I know this is a meme, but I’ve also met plenty who seriously think this way.

      At a certain point, it feels like they’re reusing the same voice actors, over and over and over again, in everything. It all starts blending together. So for some things, I’ll switch to sub (usually just if I’m getting impatient with a release schedule and the sub is finished already, tho)

        Yeah, that can be an issue. It’s likely due to studios not paying much for Eng VA work, so the talent pool is small.
