People not from English-speaking countries, was it possible to watch cartoons in English subbed? - Lemmy.World

For example, we know that over here in the USA, a box set of dragon ball z contains the English dub and the original Japanese track. If someone from somewhere else wanted to watch, let’s say SpongeBob on DVD, could they expect the original English track or was it commonplace to only have the local dub?

There is an online debate over whether it’s better to watch King of the Hill dubbed or with subs.
Same, but with DBZ, The Simpsons and other cartoons for English vs Mexican Spanish dubs. I gotta say, our dubs are surprisingly good.
