When it comes to animation, the mouth thing is less of an issue. However, I'll mention that some peoples' *natural* voices don't match their appearance. For example, guys like Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley where they look badass, but sound eh.

However, some shows/films are either voiced in both languages by the original cast (or a portion of the case) or they hire people from that same ethnic group for the voices -- largely because of the general backlash over white VAs being to dub over non-white actors/characters. So the examples of things that might feel the most "off" are less of an issue now.

Less of an issue. But it still sounds off sometimes. That said, it mightve because if I heard the real voice first, then next one sounds off

But its true that animation isnt as bad since they arent always moving there mouths in certain ways It just depends for those

It depends on the show, and the original might not have emotion (or the appropriate level of emotion) but you're less likely to notice it because you aren't familiar enough with the language. I feel like most people who praise original VA-work lack the context to really determine the quality because they don't have a strong enough familiarity with the language. At most, they might be comparing it to other shows, which is a terrible benchmark since none of them might be great acting and it throws off expectations.

The originals usually have the right amount (of the amount I would expect) Its usually a discrepancy between the original and the dubs. I dont mean to say Im only listening to the dubs Haha. Its less emotion from the original

But it could be a lack of the other language. But I dont think it would change it that much. Plus, it would be weird if all the shows I was watching (a lot) all had characters with no emotion.
