What? Thats freaking awesome haha.

The reason YuGiOh subs are generally better is the lack of censorship. (And not randomly ignoring the last season of a series -_-)

But Arnold Mammoth is truly one of the best things to come out of an anime localization xd

i was never bothered by english dub, but one day, i decided to watch all my anime in subs. After a few years, i tried going back to dub, but now it sounds 100% unnatural for some reason

I never said I didnt like the dub. I just said I can see why other people might not like it. It is kind of cheesy. In a good way but still...

From what I understand, the GX dub borders on being a gagdub.

The US dubs butchered the great songs DBZ and Digimon had. US dubs have been shit for 20 years at least.
Maybe in the 90s, but modern dubs are often better then their sub counterparts.

Honestly this is why I prefer the English Yugioh dubs, they are pretty funny to watch

My favorite part of them is when they make characters face fates worse than death just so they don't actually have to die

The GX dub is a masterpiece that transcends mortal concepts like series rankings

Overall nowadays I tend to watch dubs unless they're terrible, far from caught up, or the jp version is just too good. Fate has an amazing dub for example (even if they've only done until the first HF movie)

I usually prefer sub nowadays but the dub for overlord was amazing. I actually prefer it to the sub.

Japanese scripts are often overly tropey and dry as fuck and any translation basically needs to punch up the dialogue to make it even worth watching. Dubs that stick too close to the Japanese script often suck because of that. A good localization can vastly improve the source material with the right changes, but sub lovers act like any change (no matter how good) is unacceptable.

Same here. Other great gagdubs, besides GX, is Samurai Pizza cat and Ghost Stories. Samurai Pizza Cat is notorious because they were given the show without a script so they just made shit up. Ghost Stories on the other hand bombed hard in Japan and the studio warned the dub company that they might need to spice it up to get it to sell. They were given 3 instructions: keep the names the same, the way to exorcise the demons/spirits the same, and to keep the plot the same (basically to prevent another Samurai Pizza Cat thing from happening); otherwise they got free rain and oh boy did they used that to their advantage lol.

Is this not ironic considering that the topic cherry picked a single sub? Also, I'm full Japanese, making me immune to the weeb status effect :3

The Yu-Gi-Oh! dub fits the sheer corniness of the show rather well I'd say

'90s action shows and stuff released in the last 10 years generally have pretty good dubs, but watching dubbed '00s romcoms/dramas is an experience most painful

Dubs are far better on average now than they were 20 years ago. Streaming services made anime more accessible to more of the casual market, so putting the effort into a good English dub makes a huge difference in how popular a show can get.

Some newer dubs are fucking poop. One Punch Man's dub is absolutely horrendous IMO.

But others like Dr Stone are amazing.

The good thing about living in the time we do, is most series these days have dual audio at least. So if you dont like one, you got a second chance to enjoy the other.

....could be worse.... I just finished watching an anime called The Misfit of Demon King Academy. There is one part where a choir is singing, they didn't even bother to dub it. It's in full Japanese... in an English dub.

Note: I watched the entire thing in Japanese, and then a couple episodes in English.

For a lot of anime, you're just trading corny english acting for goofy Japanese acting that seemingly doesn't sound so bad because it's in another language.

The GX dub was largely flippant which is why the series is popular, but you'd really need to compare the dub dialog to the original anyway.

GX's anime also didn't give a fuck about its manga counterpart. They're basically two different things.

I'm honestly not sure what the logic with GX was in general, but it falls into the so bad it's good category.
