I just watched my first Anime this weekend (Cowboy Bebop the Movie) and absolutely loved it. I started to look through the beginners anime thread, but with over 600 posts, it is a bit daunting.
My dilemma is this, I watched it on Friday night in the English version and thought it was awesome. On Saturday morning, I was feeling guilty that I did not watch it in its original language. After all, I would not even think of watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Life is Beautiful or Brotherhood of the Wolf dubbed. I started to watch it in Japanese several times, and was missing the English voices. I am thinking that my mistake was watching it first in English, and putting certain voices with certain characters.
My question is this. Is this a common problem? I am planning on picking up several new titles today. (Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Princess Monoke, Metropolis, Ninja Scroll). Do some of you watch your anime in English and enjoy it, or am I better off by watching all of these in Japanese and just getting used to it.
Thanks
Greg
