Question; I may start watching the anime rather than reading the manga.. Both actually, but I'll start watching it too. So sub or dub? Is the dub bad, or tolerable, or..?
I watched the first episode of the dub just out of curiosity after reading some of the comments here. To be honest, the only voice I actually liked was Keiichi's. Mion and Satoko's voices were pretty average, except Satoko's laugh was completely ruined if you ask me, and Rena and Rika's were pretty unbearable if you ask me.
A lot of the characters' speech patterns were basically ruined in translation, for example, one of the charms of Rika is the fact that she ends every sentence with "Desu". Also, a number of the jokes were removed with the translation.
So I'd definitely recommend watching it subbed rather than dubbed.
