The voices aren't so bad especially for L misa's is terrible, but she is annoying in japanese too. It is a show that requires close attention though so hearing it in the one's own language is really nice

Dub versions always suck..I don't even want to hear the dub version of death note..death note with japanese voices is way better..any anime is way better with japanese voices^_^.

Light had the dumbest voice! L's was a disappointment as well. All anime is better in Japanese.

I think it was all right but Misa's voice sounds HORRIBLE!!! and childish. Other than that the laughing of Light is bad too, I'm still laughing myself

Okay I'm probably just jumping the gun on this one, cause I haven't heard the dub, I've just watched the sub. I'm not a big fan of dub though... so I'm just assuming I'm not gonna like it. X)

Dearheart picked It's the same:
Compared to OTHER dubs I've heard, I personally thought this one was pretty good. It wasn't the best, but it wasn't unbearably bad either. At least it didn't make me cringe and run off to nurse my bleeding ears like most others have done. XD

L's voice in particular was awesome. But then, L's ALWAYS awesome. ^__^ (And it's Alessandro Juliani, people! How could you NOT like him? He was in Battlestar Galactica, for crying out loud!) =P

yea so i usually dont stick to just one side but i personally thought death note was better in dub. I think Bleach is horrible in dub though i mean Aizen's voice is awesome in sub but not in dub, and i love Aizen to so it stinks

I think Misa's voice is strange because it's suppose to be strange anyway. I don't thik the dub version is too bad. But I really love L's voice in the original *-* And I never understand when they're talking. I'm kind of deaf u.u. I have to read :D

I think that people can get alot more out of the actual Japnaese version, but I have seen a few dubs that turned out all right.
Still though, I'd say go with the English subs.

Its the same really. The english makes more sense to those who speak english since the subtitles are weird. But the Japanese voices tend to be more dramatic.

The people who are saying "dubs always suck", "not even gonna try the dub" and "people who don't watch subs are not a true anime fan" are reeaaally annoying. This dub was FINE. One of the better ones I've heard. The voice actors really tried here!
