    That would make me sad that I don't have Sci-Fi available to me, were it not for the fact that they're all dubbed.

    Still, awesome that they're showing cool things like GITS and Castle of Cagliostro. :grin:

    hrm, granted i haven't seen much subbed anime, but i kinda prefer dubbed :)

    less thinking involved, having to concentrate on reading as well as following the action :p

    edit: Hahah Mord, you used to like dubs... fool!!

    it's not so hard as you may think, as much as I've done it, I've gotten quite adept at reading, processing the text and watching the anime at the same time.. With me it's more of an 'I prefer the japanese voice actors' thing. There hasn't been a dub I've been truly satisfied with yet. (aside from Ranma season 1 episode 4 that is, with no other subtitled ranma episodes to compare, I can't speak for the whole dub of that series yet)

    season one ep 4: for sure better in the dub. The rest of the dub is good but I know what you mean, no idea if it is better than the original. It works at least. Unlike some other shows, *cough*Ah my Goddess*cough*

    While it is easier to watch dub (I miss visuals sometimes cause I'm reading) I do like it. It's something you get used to I guess.

    Nonetheless, that is a cool list of stuff that is going to be shown. Have fun with it!

    well i've got ninja scroll on dvd and i think the dubbed version of that is pretty cool, although the voices can be a bit.. wooden at times.

    i only watched a bit of the subbed version, i'll have to watch it all before i know which I prefer i guess :)
