: I like sub personally.  THere is something to be said about the
emotion of a character or the tone of a story when it is told in its
original language.  I watched Eva in sub and dub and I just feel the
highly emotional times seem to flow better when the VA is speakin in
japanese.  All in all...I think we can just look at dbz and pretty much
conclude it is better in japanese than english.  American dubbers just
can't capture the right emotion.  Plus the language barrier is still
there.  Some words or phrases just sound cooler in japanese.  Anyway,
thats my post for the year...later

Going back to Eva TV, Misato grieving when she thought Shinji was dead,
and when she knew Kaji was , were excellently done by Kotono Mitsuishi.

Allison Keith (for an English attempt) did very well, but not quite as
heart-brokenly .

Miyamura Yuko is IMO, much better than Tiffany Grant doing Asuka. I even
felt slightly sorry for the girl hearing her spoken as original.
