I have a question for you, can you hear the unnaturalness from the Japanese dub?

If you don't start listening how will you learn?
As I started out on anime I picked the Japanese dubs since it was the original language, being from Sweden that is the natural responce.
I then kept watching, watched LA in the language and gradually learnt to hear when that unnaturalness was present (a bit). That won't happen if you directly think you should watch a language you already know.
Dialects can also be picked up on after a while. I don't hear the minor dialects that I would in Swedish or English, but the major ones I can hear.
As for the topic on hand, I don't watch anything outside of its original language if I can find a sub for it. So I can't comment on it, the amount of English dubbed anime episodes I've watched is easily under 30 (counting in TV and everything else).

l have a dual audio version of Higurashi, honestly, l really tried hard to watch one ep in english dub, l really tried hard ... not to throw up.
the reason why many ppl hate english dubs is because no matter how well it's made, original voice actor (japanese) is wholly giving oneself to the characters they are voicing for, wich results in usually very deep character outline, with dubs you only see a plain work of someone trying to mimic the voice not the feeling of the character, it really hard to find such anime that dubbed with heart, name at least 1 anime that had that heart of the character, cuz l only see Gits anime (all) that were done properly to some extent, only because of the characters being rather easy to mimic emotions. The Japanese versions of the Gits franchiese is a lot better still, however the dub was done very nicely, and that anime is the only one l can aprove of a dubbed watchable anime.

Cowboy bebop had good dubs. I watched that with dubs cause at the time I didn't know I had duel audio files of it. :-[
but other than that I agree with the above.
