Dubs are more popular than Subs?

Thanks to those of you that voted in our Subtitles v Dubs poll. The anime community is often divided by this debate, and according to our survey, more of you prefer the English language dubs of anime (29.31% of the votes) over the original Japanese track with subtitles (25.86% of the votes). This is an interesting result, if just simply because English anime dubs are often looked down upon and publically criticized by many. 44.83% of you admit to mixing it up and just choosing whichever particular track suits your preference.

Our next poll is just as important. We are asking you if you import your anime DVDs from overseas (like USA) or if you prefer to support the UK industry by buying the British releases. After voting, you can make your opinions heard by discussing this issue on the forums by clicking here.
