It bothers me when I'm not hearing the actual actor's voice

Technically a lot of don't have "actual" actors since many anime are adapted from manga or other sources, so the character would have been created without a specific voice in mind. So in that sense the original voice actors aren't that much more authentic than those for other dubs, unless the creators themselves had input on the casting.

Yeah, the "actual actor" claim is always fucking stupid since very few roles are written for an actor. As such, both actors are equally valid.

Sure, with animated movies or anime it doesn't matter quite as much. I might actually go with the dubbed voices a lot of the time. But live-action movies, I'm always going with subtitles when possible.
