Quote:70%'s high, that's what I meant. (and thats the number you said). It's a good percentage, but not completely insurmountable... a well-done presentation that just has English can be fairly convincing.
Not if the anime is about Japan or Japanese people. Cowboy Bebop, for instance, does just fine dubbed.
