Personally I am not a fan, but I don't mean to/ want to preach... just wondering other peoples opinions.
My Opinion:
Its not that the English Dubs are bad, so much as, in my opinion, they pale in comparison to the Japanese Seiyuu. I tried watching FMA Brotherhood the other day on Dubs and just couldnt do it. Its like every word they say is perfectly enunciated and pleasant. But in reality, nobody talks like that. And all the detail in emotions and craziness and whatnot is lost.

I prefer dubs. Some do sound bad, but there are VA out there who really hit it out of the park. Crispin Freeman, Vic Mignonga, Johnny Yong Bosch are great examples of voice actors in America. I will however say that I will watch a show with whatever dub I start with. Can't listen to Hellsing jap dub after listening to eng dub, and vice versa to Squid Girl. Only if the dub is so bad it takes me out of the show would I switch over.
