also do you guys prefer dub or sub?

dubbed. I like to do other stuff when I watch TV. Subs get in the way of that.
We're long past the days where voice acting was bad (outside of a few cases.) I'm convinced most people just think japanese subs sound better because they don't know how jappanese is supposed to sound.

While I not opposed to dubs, I disagree. Most shows have pretty bad voice acting and in some shows, it ruins the show. It stems mostly from the lack of talent in the industry (in the sense of the small number). You have a small group of talented voice actors who get placed in roles they have no business doing.

How is that different from the Japanese versions? It's the same in the Japanese versions and often worse. Thin teenagers often get younger voices, large men end up with thin weasly voices and 10-15 year olds get the voices of 5 year olds.
Unlike dubs however, this can often happen all in the same anime.

The Japanese seiyuu market is much more compeititive than the American voice acting market. It's mostly because demand is much higher with dozens of shows constantly being produced. Due to the increased compeition, the bad voice actors can't get any jobs.
Certainly not the case here in the States.
