Heh, well thats what I am here for. You even have my AIM name to get me through. And Im on just about every night.
I prefer subtitles.. because you get mostly the original words. But English is fine for me if it is dubbed correctly. YYH used to be dubbed correctly, but when they hit a certain point, they changed slight words that gave away HUGE meanings. The Subtitles will leav hints for all sorts of clues, love lifes, secrets, and other such goodies.

I think both sides have their pros and cons, but i agree with you Riko. I like subtitles for the fact that by watching anime in japanese with english subtitles, I've started picking up common japanese words.

I have to say I like both. Truth be told I have watched more dub then subs however I'm watching subs a lot more then I used to.

I don't blame you, several companys have been producing poor dubs here in America. ADV is one ofthem, sad to say.

AUGH I HATE ONE PIECE. With a dire passion. The only reason I dont badmouth it it because I think it has Pirates in it, and as Logan likes Pirates, I dont say anything abad about it for fear of making him mad or insulting him. Hes stuck up for me in alot of bad times so I will respect him, even for an anime I hate.
Never heard of 4kids.
That Naruto saying is total blasphemy. Not once have I watched a subbed episode where he says that. Not. One. And to think, TO THINK, they are making POSTERS, that have him on there, in a pose, with "BELIEVE IT!!!!!" plastered on the top or bottom in vibrant yellow and orange- same as the animes title.

One Piece deafened me for a good hour after only watching 10 minutes of it. Somehow I've managed to like Naruto again partially. I still can never watch it in English but I can bear watching it in Jap depending on the episode.
Ever since .Hack ROOTS came on whenever I miss an episode, I just watch the subbed version to catch up before they show it again. I suppose thats where my growing of sub's first came from.

I saw liek half an episode once, and I was shocked they considered it even ANIME. It shouldnt be. It isnt.
I stopped watching the .hack stuff after I saw the episode put in with the game. It sucked. Good ol .Hack//SIGN is all I liked about the .hack stuff.

Its got a cult following in Japan. Apparently they're in the 300's as far as episodes are concerned
Ah .hack Liminality. I only saw one episode seeing as I only own one .hack game and the other three I beat didn't come with the anime disk. //ROOTS takes place several years later but this isn't the place to talk about that.
Ah yes another reason I got into subs recently are the trailers I've been watching. Many of them are subbed and not in English so if I watch them enough I end up learning the words and such.

Ahahah yah if youre really wathcing oen that has alot of talking, it sometimes get a bit difficult to read the subs AND watch the characters on the screen. Takes alot of eyeball coordination and focusing there xD. I usually watch things on YouTube in subs anyway..

Haha speaking of subs I watched the rest of ROOTs last night subbed since they weren't going to show the rest on CN. Great stuff it was. And even with the subs I heard some words that I recognized.
