Not all dubs are good, but being snotty about them as a dogmatic stance is haram

    Yeah. In gintama those notes were so good because some jokes would make no sense to non Japanese viewers.

    But yeah while dubs seem to be getting better and subs seems to have gotten a bit worse with the death of fansubs, the sub vs dub choice seems to be just a matter of personal preference. Like for me I could never watch a slice of life in dub. But for scifi I would much rather watch a dub.

        That’s pretty dope because even though companies screech about piracy, fansubs were a huge factor in popularizing Japanese animation all over the world, not just in English speaking countries.
