Construction outside of our house right now, so our recording window is limited.  Should still be out tomorrow, or Saturday at the latest. :)

Dub all the way

Meg B

Sub team cause Mamoru Miyano is brilliant

Carlos Soto

Sub 100%, considering how iconic the seiyus are.

This one has to be in sub

Joshua

It's sub for this one, guys. The dub quality is great and is on par with the sub., but there are multiple moments when the language barrier is the joke. Just for that fact, they'll miss out on some things when watching dub

DennisAnimeFan

The dub is stronger overall in this one but I'll respect the sub win in the poll here and appreciate that it was put to a vote.

Rope Snake

The dub is solid, nothing wrong with it, but I'll always default to the sub

Carlos Soto

Also, just my opinion, but I do feel like a lot of ppl prefer dub just because is a lot more convenient to watch the reactions without having to read, which is understandable. But at the end of the day you guys are the ones experiencing for the first time, so I think we should always recommend the highest quality version rather than the easy way for us. There's exceptions obviously, like Cyberpunk dub which is as good as the japanese one.

Some of the jokes and lines really only make sense in japanese

Jonathan

The dub for this show is genuinely fantastic and is one of the only English dubs in existence that I feel really and truly avoids a lot of the awkward phrasing and lazy localization that most dubs employ nowadays. However. The sub is still the correct answer for one simple reason: "sonnuvabitch."

Russell Gambardella

With this being the most important vote in the history of mankind to date, I must do my part in ensuring the sub wins!

I would argue that half the people here that are voting for sub have not watched steins gate in dub, and is blindly voting just based off the “sub vs dub” and “dub cringe” mentality, which is true for most series. But steins gate in particular has a really good dub and the delivery itself is fantastic with the improvised jokes flowing better than the original Japanese ones. As someone who have enjoyed the series in both sub and dub, dub is a clear winner. If you’ve watched the series in dub or both sub and dub, and thinks the sub is better, then by all means go with sub. But otherwise, I urge you to at least consider the dub version and not go with the “dub vs sub” mentality for Steins gate.

Either is fine. I'm a sub type of person but Steins; Gate is one of the few (more in recent years) that does dub pretty well.

David Portnov

I really like the dub, but there's one moment in particular where you'll want the sub. I went with sub on this one for that reason. Both are fantastic honestly.

LordFifth

People voting sub have not watched it in dub, I watched both. I almost never watch dubs, but this one is better than the subs

Khal Wadege

The dub is honestly one of the best dubs in anime, so I highly recommend to give it a chance

Hollow

Sub all the way. If it was anyone else I might recommend the dub, but you two are extremely attentive and I doubt you'd miss anything due to reading. Dub is fine but some cultural moments and themes simply don't make sense or aren't as good in English. Some things are just very Japanese.

Albertan Motorcyclist

Definitely sub. Main character is voiced by the same guy as pandoras actor and Light, enough said

Brrmaster

No wrong answer here so whichever you choose I am down for.

StrawHatRimuru

I understand Sub love, but Steins: Gate, FMAB, and Death Note have goated Dubs

Recha Recha

I personally think the dub is very VERY good, but Steins Gate have loads of references to Japanese culture, the sub just fit more... (and Okabe's engrish just too good)

Mistor

The dub for Steins;Gate is an amazing *localization* of the original material. I think a few people saying jokes won’t make sense or saying it somehow won’t fit is because they assume the dub will essentially ‘read the subtitles out loud’ but this is not the case at all because of the unusual amount of care and detail they put in to localize it. An unprecedented thing regarding this dub, is that the protagonist’s VA is also the script writer - Steins;Gate has the most natural dialogue I have ever seen because of this. I really think this English adaptation is something special. I’m usually a big advocate for sub, but I think this is *the* exception.
