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. ^^

For anime in general, I guess it depends on the series. I usually end up liking it better in Japanese, but I've made some exceptions, and I generally find dubs watchable. The only times I really hate dubs is when they completely murder the dialogue (ie: Spider Riders, Bakugan.)

For Code Geass, I prefer the Japanese, because I find the actors sound better for the most part, but I think the dub was very well done.
