they essentially strip the official subtitles of any fuckery or mistranslations rather than reworking from the ground up, so its more like a hybrid of official and fan subtitles. HorribleSubs did this for many years before them, so a lot of their work is out there too.
I’m reaching a point where I’m exclusively watching dubbed. It’s gotten better in the past decade now that anime companies have a bigger budget to hire better trained voice actors.
Frieren and Delicious in Dungeon English VAs are amazingly spot on.
Depends on anime and country. English dubs just sound off in nearly everything to my non-native ears. Brazilian dubs, on the other hand, often hit a good spot, but that could be nostalgia and/or bias. Portuguese dubs, on the other hand… Dear lord, just no.
Find anime with good english subtitles.
Find anime in better qualy.
New sub sucks.
I usually download raws with fansubs to circumvent this.

Basically the original Cave Story fan translation versus the official one done for Cave Story+.
Saw this with the DnD5e translation. The fan work was leagues better than the official thing
subs suck. Dubs rule
Voice actors in dubs are usually worse than the original VAs

That used to be the norm, but many newer anime (and older popular ones) have great dub VA talent.

The original VAs dont speak my language. Why even have sound if I’m not going to understand what they say.
