To me, dubs make the characters feel out of place.

If I'm watching an English show, I assume the characters speak English. Same reasoning can be applied with Anime.

It's just distracting to me when there's a language mismatch. I would rather read subtitles on a screen, but have the 'correct' audio, than having characters speak a language they shouldn't.

You should watch James Cameron's favorite B movie: GUNHED. In its original release, characters in the movie spoke their own language.
