I really have to get this off my chest after the last forum I posted

So I truly cannot stand people who hate on people who watch anime in THE ONLY LANGUAGE THEY'VE EVER KNOWN.

I DONT SPEAK JAPANEESE

I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT

I LIKE TO WATCH THE ANIMATION

I WOULD READ MANGA IF I WANTED TO READ ANYTHING

WHY WOULD I READ SUBTITLES AND MISS WHAT IS ACTUALLY IDK.. HAPPENING

I just really don't even get the argument. Its almost like people, either A) want to hate on others, or B) Know another / pretend to understand another language for the sake of looking cool.

There's a lot of more reasons I dislike the whole concept behind critiquing others on how someone ELSE enjoys their own past time. Its really weird to me. And sad.

At the end of the day, if your a fan, I'm a fan, lets fangirl together homie

that is the entire point of the post. I watch my anime dubbed. I only speak and understand english. Why would someone be mad at me because I don't want to read the screen while watching anime?

Some people love to try and be different and some just like the authenticity of the originals.

Right, I get that. Which I have watched some stuff in the original form. But I won't do it all the time, I don't need to feel special all the time lol.

Yeah I agree it shouldn't matter unless they're watching physically with you

Yeah it's weird to hate on someone for their choice of dub, or to like gatekeep anime that way. I personally prefer the Japanese version as I find the voice acting better/more immersive

Although there's some English dubs I really like as well. At the end of the day it's whatever you enjoy most:) so totally agree with you

I agree, I do think that quality wise, it is a lot better in Jap.
