Disappear Note. xD Genius. I hate dubs anyways. Watch the subs! I prefer watching anime the way it was meant to be viewed. As both an audio and visual experience, in which one can appreciate the acting and voicework, as opposed to just reading the bottom of the screen.
If subs were the way anime was meant to be viewed, the creator would have had all the characters speaking gibberish.

What if the anime hasn't been dubbed? What do you do then?
I watch a pretty good amount of anime that hasn't been dubbed, and anime that has been dubbed as well.
I'm also currently learning Japanese, and I will be taking a class in my homeschooling next year. The subbed version help me pick up a few more words here and there.
Also, as far as I know, American DVDs of dubbed animes also have an official Japanese subbed version with it. All the DVDs I own do.
The way it was meant to be viewed from the start was the way it was originally made and produced. I can still enjoy both with subs, as I can see what's going on as I read.

That's the way it was originally meant to be viewed by the original audience. An audience that happens to speak Japanese.
The way it's meant to be viewed is in the language of the viewer.

I watch dubs unless the voice acting is unspeakably terrible or there have been major changes made from the original, which rarely ever happens. Listening to the voices in a different language, even if there are decent subtitles, just makes me feel like I'm missing something.
The voices could sound different in the dub (which might make it weird for people who watched the sub first) and there might be minor changes to the script, but I think that watching the dub is just as good as watching the sub, barring some exceptions. xD
