The older I get, the more I prefer dub. Is it just me?
Same. As I’ve grown older, I value comfort and immersion more than purist authenticity, watching dubs lets me focus on the story, animation, and emotion without constantly reading. A great dub can enhance performances, making characters feel more alive in my native language while freeing my eyes to truly watch the art.
>>283086310No, senility is pretty common among the elderly.

>>283086327This is only an issue if your reading skill is less than that of a 10-year-old.
>>283086310I used to watch sub 20 years ago but now I watch raw

Maybe you should get glasses or figure out how to make the font size larger
>>283086310My 90 year old grandma watches Korean/Chinese drama subbed with no issue. I doubt it's age.
>>283086310Buy glasses
>>283086310>watch anime for 20 years>didn't bother to learn the language>unironically prefers dubs nowwhat do we call this
>>283086310>>283086327Same here. I even actively look for dubbed anime now. Gladly I'm ESL so the dubs in my native language are actually enjoyable. I would never watch any English dub they are all atrocious.
>>283086310This is the kind of stupid shit I'd expect a 16 year old to post, yeah.
>>283086310You might find people who share the same feeling on Twitter or even better, Bluesky.
>>283087391these places live in your fucking head, loser.
>>283087267A troll
>>283087886sounds like he hit a nerve troonlord
>>283086310No but the older I get, the more I prefer reading instead.
>>283086310Might need to check your eyes and ears
>>283087886Back to gaia with you chum.
>>283086310>>283086327Same, I've been watching animes for 20 years, only watched with dubs for 5 years then went back, it's just tiring to be constantly reading and I can't really pay attention to anything else.
>>283086310I watch both and have always watched both, hell some anime I've seen twice in both.
Got hit with a youtube ad after my browser updated. Why did every character in that roshidere pv sound like they were older than 32? Is that really how it sounds for most dubs?
>>283086462Imagine not understanding nip speak after two decades of this shit
>>283086310whenever i hear shit american VA i want to throw up, the actors are just not good, they don't emote well, they don't inject any character into the dub. i don't speak japanese but i much prefer to hear it, it has a musical quality and the actors emote very well. the girls sound cute and the guys sound cool or menacing, they all put in effort.so no.
>>283086327>>283090122kek being a readlet is so embarrassing.
>>283090835"after 20 years" typically means "I watched pokemon on the WB when I was 5"
>>283087267I actually watched anime for 20 years and didn't bother to learn, now I can understand japanese anyway.
>>283086327>I value comfort and immersion more than purist authenticityI acquired both by learning the Japanese language lmaosucks to dekinai
>>283086310Yeah, then again I actually learned moonrunes because I lived in Japan for a while so I'm used to hearing the language.
>>283086310That's just dementia settling in.
