Since today we have 2 episodes FMAB on the schedule, we will watch the Dub. The next scheduled episodes are Saturday so we will stay or switch depending on the results.

Fullmetal Alchemist won the last poll. There was a good amount of feedback on that poll and Discord that suggested watching the Dub over the Sub, and it looks like other reactors have been watching the Dub as well. Let us know which one you guys prefer, and leave any comments on the pros/cons of either

Dub please

It's also one of few dubs that was really fucking good back then. I understand sub elitist but imo it just an outdated viewpoint on something that has gotten drastically better over the years (Dubbing)

Fred O'Hara

I voted sub, but both are good!

Nick

Voting dub because why would you watch FMAB subbed? Shocked that the sub is getting so many votes.

Honestly dub is really nice, and you might recognise some memes that come from FMAB dub. When you guys finish watchin it you could watch the bloopers which are super funny. I think there even some memes that come from those same Bloopers but i am not sure on that one. Funfact one of the characters there have the same voice Actor as All Might in MHA.

The dub is too good not to listen to it.

I used to love dubs when I was a kid, but once I started watching subs more and more as I got older, going back to watch even the shows that have GOOD dubs makes me cringe at a lot of the line deliveries. Dubs just sound off to me, often rushing lines or slowing them down (or changing them completely) to fit in the space another language used to fit.

Cedric Worthy

Please dub for the love of god🥲

Andrew shultz

Excluding Ghost Stories I’ve never understood the appeal of dubs. They all sound the same to me, cringe.

The Wheff

The only anime I'd ever recommend dub. That, and I've watched the FMAB sub several times as well, and it just never hits right. Probably because there are literally dozens of different versions of the sub, all of which are translated differently, most them being awful.

Vinyl

One of the very rare situations where the Dub is actually good.

I kind of get that. I haven't watched a new dub in years. But for those old classics I grew up on, like Naruto, Bleach, Dragon Ball Z, Gundam, FMAB, Death Note, Code Geass, Cowboy Bebop, I can watch those dubs all day long.

idkwhoami

Watching anything dubbed is the equivalent of listening to Beethoven played on a toy piano.

just_jenn

I've watched both and the dub is actually really good. One of the few animes where it's done right.

VultureXM

Sub is way better then dub not matter what you think

Nick
>>145721084

Wrong. While I agree that the vast majority of dubs aren't as good as the sub, there are a handful of shows where the dub is either as good as the sub or better than it. FMAB is one of the best dubs alongside Cowboy Bebop, Bebop being one where it is objectively better than the Sub.

It's cringe af in most spots and only clouded by nostalgia. It's not as good as people say. Did watch the whole thing dub and sub.

Kaleb Beaumont

Looks like sub will win which I don’t mind persay, but the dub truly is amazing and would be cool to switch it up and finally listen to dub when it’s actually good

Nick

Don't throw in the towel yet, there's 800+ Patreon subscribers and we're only at 126 votes with 5 days to go. Though weirdly the poll on Youtube is almost a dead match for this one with less votes, it's only like 1% off.

Kaleb Beaumont
>>145730126

It’s interesting to me that most of the replies are all dub but the poll shows sub winning by a good amount, I think dub people just want SOME representation and this is the one anime worth it, but alas

Personally I think you should do both. Try ep 1 with both sub and dub (if you have the time), or watch ep 1 in dub or sub and ep 2 in the other, and then decide yourself what you want to watch it in, because I personally believe both versions have a lot to offer. Again you should just do what you yourselves want. Would hate for the dub to win, and if you don't like, let that ruin your experience of this amazing anime.

Huh nvm. Just saw the post about the first two episodes. However i still think you should try the sub also, and then decide for yourselves.

Tenghein C

While I understand that the dub is good in comparison to other anime. It doesn’t change the fact that dub loses out on some translation/delivery and sometimes outright change the meaning of the sentences. The criteria for choosing shouldn’t be based on whether it’s better than all the bad dubs out there but it should be based on whether it sticks to the original intention of the lines and delivery.

Andrew shultz
>>145730126

I hope it’s just a vocal minority situation lol. I understand your take for this specific community since they don’t watch dubs, but for me there’s only 1 channel I follow that reacted to the sub. All the rest have been dub so I’m really hoping for another sub.

alna

Sub please. I tried the first 2 episodes. This shit is gonna give me nightmares

MaouS@T@N

I barely got past ep 1 with 3-4 hp left....I admit the dub is better than 90% of the shows I heard, but I can't. Not when I have heard the original, original too. Also, little rant, they didn't get all the original cast for Brotherhood: Mustang, Riza, Lust, Greed, etc. Hearing a different Mustang was so damn odd. It wasn't bad, but just odd. Also, he's Shisho.

Miguel Castillo-Bailey

Personaly I like the dub more than the sub on this one. But I know dub will never win cause the sub only people are pretty much snobs and will bitch in the comments for every episode. I really do believe you putting up the poll was worthless. Next time it's just better for you guys to decide weather it will be in sub or dub instead of putting putting two dub episodes then making a poll which you know how it will go.

James Sanchez

FMA:B dub is good enough that I'm fine with either, i'm just happy to see some reactions to shows that aren't recycled isekai shows.

just_jenn

Sub is the winner I guess. I like both versions, especially the bonus outtakes in the dub version at the end of the show. Someone mentioned the dub losing out in translation, but it's literally translated to English when subbed, which aren't 100% accurate as well. That argument didn't make sense to me.

Huh? Wdym? Lips sync, long/short phrases etc. There is various ways why dub a lot less accurate than sub.
