So ive never seen Baccano before, and ive heard good things about it. So ive decided to watch it, but i dont know which is better, the dub or the sub so what do you guys think.

Dub fail, sub FTW!!!

[Transcend]

Subs for me.

Need I say more...

Although I shall give the dub credit for being one of the rare decent
[read: doesn't make your ears bleed] ones... but just... Ladd...


*edit: The fuck... youtube embedding is borked...

Although you may perfer subs.
I thought the dub was really really well done.
Since it is an anime based in America, All of the characters have really well done new york accents.

Unfortunately, all dubs except Dragon Ball fails.

Go with the subs.

Why not watch both and decide yourself?

Of course, with Baccano, it's most likely a lose-lose situation. If you really want to understand what's going on, you have to be totally focused on both the dialogue(Dubs often don't communicate well, or even throw away parts of, the original Japanese dialogue.), and the on-screen action(subs take a lot of time out of this).

Also, I've changed the title because, first, we didn't have a baccano thread, and second, it was purist/dubfag flamewar bait. The poll alone is as well, but I'll leave it. Hopefully people are intelligent enough to post something other than "lol dubs fail" in a thread about something as good as baccano.

Were you able to keep a straight face while typing that part or were you doubled over with laughter?

But in all honesty, I'd go with the subs my self, just do what I do, when theres too much going on to keep up with the subs and the action on screen, just back up and watch the scene over.

I typed it with a depressed demeanor, knowing that people wouldn't be.

Oh really? We didn't have a Baccano! thread? That alone plunges me into the depths of despair...
