English or Jap?

What do you prefer to see CG in? Or any anime? I prefer English because I hate having to divert my eyes away from the action just to read the subtitles so I can keep up with the plot. Even if the English dub can sound melodramatic or corney sometimes. I watched CG once in Jap and a second time in English and I do have to admit that Lelouch's English voice is way sexier ; ) I think his voice in the Jap version is strange because it makes him sound like a 30 year old man rather then an 18 year old. But that's just me. ^^

Japanese, because I deeply associate the characters with their Japanese voices. Also, Jun Fukuyama's voice is sexy, Yukana's voice is sexy, Wakamoto is sexyWakamoto.

That said, I really need to listen to the English dub since it does have *sparkles* Yuri Lowenthal (one of my favorite English VAs). In general I prefer Japanese dubs to English ones, but really it's a matter of what I "watched first." If I saw the English first (and it was decent), I tend to prefer the English, and vice versa. I usually see the Japanese first thanks to fansubs.

(I also can appreciate the Japanese a lot better after four years of Japanese classes; it's fun to understand some things without subtitles!)
