Used to binge-watch dubs on Crunchyroll but switched to subs after a bad translation made me laugh at a sad scene

Three weeks ago during episode 7 of Re:Zero the dub had Subaru say 'I totally got this' right before dying horribly and I couldn't stop cringing, now I read subs on a 10 dollar Chromebook at 1 AM, has anyone else had a translation moment that just broke an anime for them?

Man, I feel that. Bad dubs just rip you right out of the story.

Honestly I think you're overreacting. Dubs have come a LONG way and stuff like that is rare now. I actually prefer dubs because I can actually WATCH the animation instead of reading the bottom of the screen the whole time. You missed the whole point of the scene because you were too busy being mad at one dumb line.
