I mean some series have actual good dubs, Hellsing to mention a few of them. But i can't shake how weird most of them are. I prefer honestly 4kids because atleast i feel it was just amusing to listen to and there is one thing they did right... they actually did sound like females when they voiced females over to english.

Well this is the case with most english dubs, like why do they have to make females sound like 9 year olds? I know Japanese has an excuse because thats their natural voice in their language, but in English there is no excuse. So i don't get it when a female who is 18 or 21 years old to sound like she is 9, or any teenager without sounding like a 15 year old teenager in english. In Baccano for example they try to make them sound clueless and kinda dumb. Which i guess would be Japanese humor of some of the characters, but it could have some english consistency of native english to understand the joke.

But i am just wondering what you think?
