You dont speak Japanese so you have no idea whether or not the voice acting is better.

You speak English so dubs are objectively superior.

Sub sandwiches can get so much flavor from the bread and crust than a regular sandwich.

Incorrect. I'd prefer the original language + subs even if it wasn't Japanese media, so the weeb argument doesn't work at all. Also I do speak Japanese :P

When I didn't know English I also preferred to watch American and British TV shows in English with Spanish subtitles I guess that makes me an ameriboo(?)

If the anime isnt available in your language, totally fine.

If it is available in your language but you prefer Japanese with subtitles even though you dont speak Japanese, youre a weeb.

What if the first half of the show is translated but the second half isnt translated yet. But you watched the first half (translated) and want to continue on without waiting 1 week per episode

Japanese normally comes out first, so if you dont want spoilers it is usually better to keep up with the sub

Not really, its just some people like to watch anime in same time with it been airing in Japan instead of waiting for a dub for years. Given there will be dub at all.
And in case of old anime, sometimes English dub is so inferior to Japanese, that its better to read subs

I generally prefer dubs, but I'm perfectly fine with either way. I feel like the more female-heavy the cast of a series is, the more likely that the sub will sound better to me than the dub. So for some genres (mostly 'cute girls doing cute things' shows) I prefer to watch them subbed, but for most, I prefer the dub if one is available.

Also this though. I lean a bit more toward subs for currently airing anime that I'm really hyped about, so I can take part in the ongoing discussions and avoid spoilers. But even then, sometimes I'll go with a simuldub instead or even re-watch the show dubbed later on.

Obsession with Japan, you're weeb cause you're obsessed enough to learn Japanese
Do you even know what an obsession is? You think just because someone is learning a language it means they're obsessed with the country? I guess for you anyone who is not a monolingual is some kind/level of weeb.

I have the feeling that you're just joking, but if you're not... Wew, you're so wrong.

Here are some definitions of obsession, in case you actually have no idea what you're talking about (hint: none of those applies to me):
- A persistent disturbing preoccupation with an often unreasonable idea or feeling.
- The intense preoccupation of one's thoughts by a single, continuous idea or feeling.
- A state in which someone thinks about someone or something constantly or frequently especially in a way that is not normal.

Pretty weird take from someone who puts JRPGs on a pedestal. Are you saying you're a weeb? And no, merely learning a language doesn't mean you're obsessed with that country. What anti intellectual and xenophobic nonsense is that? It depends on the reasoning for learning that language.

The only thing you miss out on with the JoJo dub is Joseph's Engrish. Other than that JoJo has a superb dub.

Live action dubs never work. It's way too much of an uncanny valley mismatch.

Nope. Usually 18 to late 20s

I would know because I keep up to date with Japanese voice actresses
