Who watches dubbed anime? -_-
To be fair though FMA: Brotherhood has excellent dubbing (i think).
People that like to multitask. I hate watching anything by itself, I generally always play a game while watching a show. It took me a week to get through four episodes of Digimon Tri due to that.

To be honest, and even though I watch mostly everything subbed, there are some dubs that I find superior to the original.
Some examples would be the American dubs of Spice and Wolf (I fell in love with Holo's voice here), and Soul Eater.

You know, i also exists other types of anime, not just shonen. Ano hana is way better than this both, and Mushi-shi too. Just go out and watch a lit of seinen and shojo. You'll find better anime there.

Hmmm the Naruto manga is great but I cant stand the anime. I think I'd still say DBZ though. It has more history behind it. Akira Toriyama is legendary
Really? I forced myself a very long time ago to read all the manga content available (perhaps a decade ago? I can't tell anymore, time goes by way to fast too even keep track of it).
At that time there were 27 volumes total. And I suffered to read it all, I forced myself to the (at that moment) end.
It was IMHO pure shit... Why did I keep going? To this day I still don't understand those masochist tendencies of mine anyway.

PS: But yes, the anime is even worse in the way they make episodes last forever and the story stalls and does not advance... Oh, very much like DBZ... Contestants of the shittiest TOKI WO TOMARE shows, they would make Dio stand ashamed...

My answer would have to be "almost anything." That being said, FLCL, Bleach (subtitles with Japanese audio, and only up to where they kill the main bad guy), Fullmetal Alchemist (Brotherhood and regular both have equally good points to them), Soul Eater, Kill la Kill, InuYasha (if you're in the mood for something a little lighthearted) and Fairy Tail (again, original audio with subs) are a few decent to good ones off the top of my head.

One Piece. It has, like, a plot. At least the manga.
*grabs popcorn*
The animation of One Pice is kind of mediocre and has way too many episodes (well over 700). I plan on watching One Piece but it's going to take forever to catch up with the current episode.

I do. I hate to watch something and read subtitles at the same time.

Plus I hate to hear characters speaking in a language I don't understand. English was a pain to learn, not ready for japanese yet.


As for OP's question; Naruto was ok, but DBZ is better.

An episode of goku yelling has more plot than the entire series of Naruto.
They're both pretty shit though, but at least DBZ is bad but in a fairly entertaining way sometimes. Naruto is just utter trash catering to little kids.

People who understand English and aren't retarded.
Sure a couple animes every few years have a bad dub, but the majority of dubbed animes after 2005 are completely fine and in many cases superb.

What fruit is better: Apples or oranges?
I prefer apples. Used to prefer oranges back then but now I'm completely devoted to apples.
have you guys made any dbz/naruto fanfictions ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
There are a ton of hentai out there of DBZ and Naruto just floating in the web.

Dragonball Z was the first anime I've ever watched. I love the art style so much that I've played a few games that have Akira Toriyama involved in them.

I prefer the English dub though. I like the manly voices. That being said, I also like the original Japanese voices.

I would really prefer the Mexican dub from the early 90s by Intertrack, if only for feeding nostalgia.

TBH, back when DB/DBZ was on TV (early 90s) I really preferred Ranma, Sailor Moon, Slam Dunk, hell... even Saint Seiya that I borderline hate.
All of them very mainstream on my side of the west on that same time frame had better qualities... Why do people still praise it?
Specially regarding comedy, IMHO Rumiko Takahashi beats Akira Toriyama eyes closed.

Because DBZ was the one of the few that got dubbed here. Slam Dunk got dubbed here as well but I wasn't into basketball back then

Naruto is better meme material, and thus the better anime.

Sources:
Ninja Info Cards
Garra of the Funk
Naruto Run
"Here I stand with my Ninja Clan"
tumblr_inline_mfq3uyLiPs1rb92a7.jpg

Basically every Twitter Naruto meme in existence.
