I only watch RAWs and Subs only because the dub is like totally worse than before. =(

Rules:
- Be respectful to people's comments, don't bash. =p
- New VA discussion is like totally not here. ^^;

Note: New Dub refers to TAJ Dub and Old Dub refers to 4kids Dub.

I watch raw when it first comes out, maybe the sub (when they rarely do), and then the dub (whatever company) when it comes out. I pretty much watch all versions without predujuice.
 
Dub. Not to mention I'm buying the entire series on DVD boxsets.

I watch the Japanese episodes and delete them when I'm done. The Japanese versions have superior music and openings, (and endings...shame we'll never see May or Hikari's endings in the dub especially), but otherwise I prefer the dub.
 
I watch all of the dub.

I have the second half of BF raws downloaded and seen. I had to stop because of my insane paranoia of my computer going boom from too much overtaken space.

I've seen a few subs. Namely the Porygon episode, the Safari Zone episode, and a few #pm subs.
 
I have to say, the RAW always is much much much much more exciting to watch, maybe since the dub has a "been there, did that" and the music is a big factor for me.
 
I like the dubs. The characters which have had their personalities lifted are much cooler in the dub version (Meowth, especially), for the most part.
 
Much of the music is in both versons, exculding dub excusive music of course.

The most rememable music in the show is the game music anyways.......
 
I pretty much mostly watch RAWS and the dub, and between those two I do tend to learn a little more towards the dub since I've been watching that longer. New dub or old dub I actually like both pretty much equally :3

The RAWS I do enjoy though for the music you don't hear in the English version and the Japanese voice actors are very awesome :3

So yeah, I'm pretty much equal on both Japanese and English versions, I can watch and enjoy both happily.
 
Meowth was a very poetic character in the Japanese version. He would look at the moon admiring its majestic beauty. In the English version, he looks up and wonders if its really made of cheese.

Ash is also a little bit more picky and impolite, but that isn't a bad thing either.

I... don't see how that's a good thing. o_O That's a horrible thing. All that does is show that whoever makes those decisions (script writers?) have no respect for the characters.

The thing about Ash you're pulling from thin air.
 
Raws and Subs(when they come out).

I used to watch the dub, but I haven't watched it regularly since 2004. I tried watching an episode of the 4Kids dub this past summer, but I had to turn it off after 5 minutes because of the extremely bad voices. Haven't even heard the new dub.
 
I watch the Japanese raws because I strongly believe in watching shows in their original language. Besides that, the music and voice acting is worlds ahead of the English dub.

If it wasn't for my website, I would have stopped watching the dub back when Houen started.
 
I'd watch them all, but make the effort for the Raws and subs.

I've only been able to see two of the new dub eps since #PM don't do them any more, but there really wasn't any leap down in quality from the 4kids dub.

I wouldn't say it's that much better - there's still a less than perfect soundtrack and lol "no. snorlax." but meh - kinda balances out with less silly editing.

One thing that really annoyed me most of all was Cartoon Network though. They do the same thing here, but in America it seemed to be even worse on those two rips. Seriously, do we really need to have half the screen be taken up every five minutes telling us what program we're watching?
 
Hey Dogasu, can you tell them how Satoshi IS more polite than Ash? Nobody ever believes me. They must not understand Japanese or something.
 
I prefer subbed episodes, or the old dub.
Sure I watch the new dub, and I admit that its gotten better voice wise... but I liked the original dub alot more.

And I've always liked the Japanese version alot.
 
Satoshi ain't that much more polite, he is still somewhat hot headed in both versions. The characters aren't that radical from each other (unlike other dubs....huffington)
 
I like both The RAW and the DUB equally. SUBs I barely watch just because they don't come out too much and by the time they do I already know what happened in that episode. The RAW is nice because the music is much better and the voice actors are better imo. Its also nice to actually see the eps right when they come out so I can be up on whatever happens, which is how I stay so hip and trendy.

I'm a fan of the DUB just because I grew up with it. I don't care to get them onto my computer jsut cause I can see them on the TV, but alot of the times I'm asleep when they're on now, but since I've seen the RAW of the ep before it doesn't really bug me too much.
 
I think he is in certain ways, but he's also more rude sometimes, and cusses alot. Lol.

Ash doesnt of course, because of 4Kids... But I've sorta always thought of Ash as being more polite. Still, seeing as how Japanese are normally real polite themselves, I suppose Satoshi could be more so then Ash at times.

xD And this seems totally off-topic.
