@ people talking about Dubs.

It also annoys me when someone says they prefer the japanese dub because "many times the english dub sucks and is emotionless"  

Ok, bad english dub is a good reason. But if they don't know shit about japanese how do they know that it is a good dub?  WHY they care in the first place if it is better dubbed in japanese IF THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND SHIT! For Christ sake.

 

Even worst: english dub are bad, but it is ok watching cartoons on a language you don't understand and where many male characters have annoying female voice, and where many female characters have 5 year old kid voice.

 

That's riciculous.

Because the English dubs are usually bad is a reason most don't watches them. Ignorance is bliss in this case, if you don't know if the Japanese voices are bad than it won't bother you. 

As for emotion, you can still tell the emotion in the voices even if you don't understand the language. 

The last part is a generalization. I don't watch any 5 year old voices.

Very ethno-centric point of view here.

Take a guess at how much people in the US spend on porn.

Here's a hint, just sales and rentals of movies on pay per view, comcast, and directv etc etc, is 1.8 Billion.

Should have precise that "poor them" was directed towards the population buying things from the graph, not the japanese population as a whole. I like the japanese culture so I wouldnt say that of them. Or should I say, I wouldnt like their culture is this was the case.

ah ok. I confused you with the millions of other people who meant "poor them" as in Japanese as a whole.

Honest mistake :P

That's just what you THINK since you haven't really watched anime in subs at all have you? That's a bad generalization to make. Some of the JP voice actors are awesome, you just have to watch the right anime, like Gintama, One Piece, Fullmetal Alchemist, Reborn, etc.

Also thinking many female characters have 5 year old voices is a bad generalization. There's girls who do sound like, and there's many others who don't. I absolutely hate the girls that sound like 5 year olds. btw. There's many good female VAs, like the one that voices Luffy in One Piece, Al from FMA/Kagura from Gintama/lots of other animes she' in, Ed from FMA, and so on.

I only saw Dragon Ball, Naruto and some Pokemon episodes. In english, and I've seen japanese clips on youtube. Despite the fact that is is annoying, I don't understand and almost every character has girly voice.

It's because most American cartoons don't have giant boobs or hair that can increase tenfold when the character decides he wants to.

Then why do you base everything on the 3 shows that you have seen? -_-
