English or Jap?

[elly3981.livejournal.com]

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. ^^

LOL at the wank in this threrad. XD;

I generally prefer the subs. I don't know, listening to Japanese just sort of conjures up the 'anime feeling' and I do tend to pick up a couple of new Japanese words per episode (it helps that I speak Korean, which is very similar to Japanese and allows me to guess the meaning of a lot of spoken Japanese). Also, I'm just a language enthusiast and get a huge kick out of listening to pretty languages. ^^

Not saying that English is ugly, though. English can be kick-ass and sound very pleasing to me in American or British TV shows. Just when it comes to anime, I rather listen to Japanese.
