Yeah, definitely. I can't stand most dubs and I get what you're saying with Japanese -- plus the fact that some things just don't translate well at all (I also find this with Spanish films, so refuse to watch the dub) but I can handle it with Miyazaki. Whomever chooses the voice actors/script for the dub seems to do it very well.

There was also a line changed in HMC which I preferred in the dub but I suppose because it's a Welsh story originally, I don't get annoyed. I dunno, I'm rambling. But I agree with you.
