Sword Art Online might have the best English dubs of any newer series. Baccano is another good one.

Wait, I have the answer, Afro Samurai. Fantastic animation, adult action content, and is dubbed by an all star cast including Samuel L. Jackson. I would also say, in some ways it bridges the gap between anime and western adult cartoons. But leans towards anime.


They recently announced the cast for Hunter X Hunter dubbed, and sounds like it will be really well done. Just won't come out for awhile.

I like Bleach. Really has that early 00's feel.

Examples
DBZ - I prefer the english voice actors. Vegeta and Goku are perfectly done.


If you go with the English DBZ you miss alot of great scenes. For example Freiza torturing krillin for a while before he kills him is a gut wrenching scene and makes Goku's transformation that much more awesome.

Also, half of the death scenes on Namek aren't even shown

That said, I agree with you the English voices in DBZ are fantastic. Especially Vegeta, Krillin, Goku, Cell, and Piccolo.

If you watch DragonBall dubbed, it's basically a different show lol

The best voices, though, are from Team 4 Star.

I'm talking about the years if my life I spent rushing home in a panic when I couldn't remember whether or not I set my VCR to record Tunami because Internet streaming didn't exist, neither did amazon, and trying to catch a rerun was miserable.

DBZA had the best Cell and Freiza voices IMO. They also took Krillin who I hated as a character and made him quite enjoyable.

Yeah Toonami showed the edited versions. You had to specifically go to suncoast and buy the unedited sagas.
