Excel Saga
InuYasha
Fruits Basket

Pretty much agree with Darken Ryu. I don't ever watch dubs. The only reason I can even vote for these is because I watched an ep of InuYasha on cartoon network last night, and I heard the english voice actors on the others when I didnt switch the audio track on VLC quick enough when the episodes started up.

Sailor Moon

Love the anime and I didn't realize this when I was young. Now I understand why so many people are upset with the english version of it.

Hey, Afro Samurai was dubbed pretty well (never seen orginal thou. When i heard Samuel L Jackson voiced Afro i was already convinced this will be officialy first dub ill watch willingly). And since its pretty much only dubbed thing i have seen.. no vote

Chrono Crusade
One Piece
Gravitation
InuYasha
Mew Mew Power

Chrono Crusade: Heard an episode of it in English. It hurt, frankly :/

Gravitation: The voices didn't suit them at all, I think. It was just....X_x

InuYasha: The reason I switched to subs. I didn't think it was bad, at first, but I started watching the subs, and realized how horrid the dub actually was, in truth...XD

One Piece: MY EARS

Mew Mew Power: Just 'cause they slaughtered it during translation and such. The voices weren't very good to top it off. XD

One Piece
Inuyasha

Both of them suck hard...

Sailor Moon
Cardcaptors
X: The Movie
El Hazard: The Wanderers

Sailor Moon and Cardcaptors - .......no explanation needed.

X: The Movie - Seriously, what was up with Kamui's voice? He sounded like... I don't even know... like he was in an empty room or something with awful acoustics.

El Hazard: The Wanderers - I don't know, I just can't stand it. The Japanese voices are good and the English ones just... don't seem to fit at all.

Dude... in my opinion the Evangelion dub is one of the best to this date. The actors were actually good and the voices were suitable to the characters. Shinji sounded like a 14 year old boy. Asuka's voice was forceful like her personality, Amanda Winn-Lee played Rei softspoken... what more do you want? That show was a fine piece of work.

Maybe this comes from having met Evangelion by watching it on dubbed VHS... I don't know, watching it never made me wish for the Japanese version.

No vote.

You think? Most English dubs I've seen have been fair-good, or sometimes even better than the Japanese (eg Cowboy Bebop).

InuYasha
Bleach
These are the only crappy dubs I can think of. I've only seen about 4 series with dubs and the other two were surprisingly good(Blue Gender, Last Exile-except for Dio). I can't even make myself watch any anime that comes on Cartoon Network because I know I'll want to gouge my ears out afterwards.

Dears

Thats about the anime (one of my first) that got me listening to japanese...

...and since then no more english ever again!

One Piece

is the single worst dub I have seen I think

I make it a rule to avoid dubs, so, fortunately, I don't have any more to contribute.
