Hi

Most of the time I go with subbed but I recently thought of switching to dubbed. I’m watching Dragon Ball Z in English and it’s pretty good. Please suggest some others which are great in dubbed.

Cheers

It’s a kinda mid OVA, but definitely more fun with Sam Jackson. Good call!

This anime has got to be the most over hyped anime.

Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. Ghost in the Shell - Standalone Complex. My Hero Academia has a good dub, though I’m mixed on the series itself

Ghost in the Shell SAC has a really good dub.
Anything Adult Swim is usually good, I remember liking Space Dandy
Hellsing Ultimate is fantastic in both languages. The dub goes in on the accents which works really well for the cartoonishly evil Nazis, it’s a bit like Indiana Jones. The Japanese VA is insanely good though so you can really go either way

FMA:B and Frieren both are great in dub. Kaguya-sama has an absolutely fantastic dub narrator. Most romcom dubs really detract from the show but that is an exception.

The Kaguya-sama dub is good, but having watched the entire series in both Japanese and English (in that order) the narrator is actually the one thing I could never get used to—I prefer the mostly played-straight Japanese narration to the jokey American narration, since I think it fits more with the overall tone of the series where the silliness of the “war” is heightened by the melodramatic acting, direction, and music. That being said, the friends I watched the dub with similarly pointed to the narrator as one of their favorite things about the show, so I seem to be in the minority here, and obviously my opinion is colored by having watched the sub first.

Yeah, I agree with everything you said and given the votes you might not be in the minority with that opinion. I see the jokey melodrama as the heart of that show so the narrator adds to it for me.
