Find anime with good english subtitles.
Find anime in better qualy.
New sub sucks.
I usually download raws with fansubs to circumvent this.
Where?
subsplease dot org
they essentially strip the official subtitles of any fuckery or mistranslations rather than reworking from the ground up, so its more like a hybrid of official and fan subtitles. HorribleSubs did this for many years before them, so a lot of their work is out there too.
Basically the original Cave Story fan translation versus the official one done for Cave Story+.
Saw this with the DnD5e translation. The fan work was leagues better than the official thing
subs suck. Dubs rule
Voice actors in dubs are usually worse than the original VAs
Unless you speak the language they original VAs are speaking: How would you even know if they're doing it good?
I actually kinda like that, because when the VAs are being cringy and shitty, I can't tell. All I get is the emotion of the delivery.
And in the past, very passionate or emotional performances were really cringy in English, so I would prefer listening to the original VAs for the delivery of emotion and tone, and read the subs for the meaning.
Exactly. I don't care whether I understand it or not (I do understand some words and phrases as you learn slowly by hearing the same word(s) over and over again), the tone and the emotions the original VAs have are rare to be seen in the dubs.
I'm reaching a point where I'm exclusively watching dubbed. It's gotten better in the past decade now that anime companies have a bigger budget to hire better trained voice actors.
Frieren and Delicious in Dungeon English VAs are amazingly spot on.
That used to be the norm, but many newer anime (and older popular ones) have great dub VA talent.
Depends on anime and country. English dubs just sound off in nearly everything to my non-native ears. Brazilian dubs, on the other hand, often hit a good spot, but that could be nostalgia and/or bias. Portuguese dubs, on the other hand... Dear lord, just no.
The original VAs dont speak my language. Why even have sound if I'm not going to understand what they say.
