Forgot if a thread was made like this in the past and, honestly, I'm too lazy to click the 'page 2' button to look.

What animes should I absolutely avoid dubbed? Why? What characters in this anime were dubbed the worst?

You know why I'm asking this. To avoid watching something that will absolutely ruin my outlook on the anime, itself.



And to shift the topic a little to people who don't watch dubbed anime, what anime subbers should I avoid? like the subbers who can't even get the names of the characters right more or less what they're saying (like HK for OnePiece)

Funny you should mention One Piece since 4Kids made the worst dubbing know to man with that same series.
What characters will give you an ulser by the sound of their voice? All of them. Maybe witht eh exception of Shanks, but I never imagined him with a british accent. At first I thought they gave Hawk Eyes a Jamaican accent, but I listened closer and it's french. Sanji sounds like he's from the bronx.
Not to mention the editing will make you sick, not even sea. :P
Anyways, they made sanji suck on a lollipop instead puffing on the smooth sailing 'cancer sticks' normaly know as cigarettes. And Sake' is Water and Wine is Juice. Disgrace!

I'f I left anything out, I'll let the Web Comic do the rest of my talking.

Love Hina please avoid at all costs. I might have been able to tolerate it but Kitsune's dub voice was a complete turn off to the whole frigging show. Some things can slide but her southern belle accent cannot.

Nadia was another one that I ended up not being able to watch dubbed. It's those french accents. It just got on my nerves especially Jean's accent. Some people might can tolerate it though.



Ummm...did one piece always have a rap begining or did the dub screw them over like they are doing the dub I have to hear right now due to my nephew watching the show?

Heh.. LoveHina was so horrible. They absolutely ruined the anime to the point that i don't know what they were thinking before they released it.

What recent anime that's been released on television (sides OnePiece) should I avoid?

Prolly Naruto. I assume it will be vary bad. na-ROO-toe meh, It's pernounced NA-lu-toe.
