dubbed anime

Voice-replaced Japanese animation

Dubbed anime is Japanese animation with dialogue re-recorded in another language, replacing the original Japanese voice track.

Fans often debate whether dubbed versions or subtitled originals better preserve artistic intent: I prefer dubbed anime so I can watch without reading subtitles.

The term usually implies English dubbing unless otherwise specified.
