Subtitles.

Dubs just don't cut it sometimes and the emotion isn't always conveyed as well, despite not being able to understand it anyway.

Subtitles for live action.

Dubs for non-live action.

I prefer dubs though.

I catch myself struggling to read the subtitles and it distracts from my attention to the actual show/film.

Also, if I look at something else for two seconds I can hear and understand the dubs but would have to pause the sub or something.

I put subtitles for everything whenever it is availiable. I really like how what is being said is also being written down at the same time.

I prefer Subs because I don't want to hear a random guy/girl speaking for an actor/actresses' voice... it ruins the film. (Vietnamese dubs kills my life)

hellsing's dub for alucard was actually quite good, i might go so far as to say that it even surpassed or was at least on par with the original but the other characters dubs were horrible
