It doesn't really matter if there are subs or not in my case since I can speak Japanese anyway. But for audio, it's gotta be original language 99% of time, unless it's an absolutely stellar dub, which are few and far between.
For example, The Big O. I honestly think it's better in English. It just fits the atmosphere much better, and all the actors were fantastic. Gundam always has good dubs, as does Macross. (inb4 Robotech, I know, I know) Fun fact: Bryan Cranston (the dad from Malcom in the Middle, but more famously for playing Walter White in Breaking Bad) voiced Isamu in the original English dub of Macross Plus.
Oh, and watch the dub of Ghost Stories. It is amazing. They literally made everything up as they went along and turned a semi-serious mystery anime into one of the best comedies ever.
