Reply to comment by njdevils901 in Honest question: Why do anime fans prefer to watch with subtitles instead of dubbed version? by [deleted]
> with subtitles you actually get the original performance
True but since you don't understand what they are saying all you get is the text on the screen, meaning the only difference to dub is that someone else reads said text out loud.
Subtitles lose at least as much emotions and meaning as dubbing, if not way more.
That's also why I never understood why it is preferred.

It is preferred because I would rather read subtitles than be distracted by dubbing. I'll never get dubbing as well, because it is awkward, sounds bad, and is consistently distracting
